Hell of a job to get that series Fat especially game 7 on the road is no easy task.
And 2010 just the first year of the process, only looking up from here. You also had my vote for GM of the year.

That was an extremely impressive series win you pulled off against Toronto. Rudy/Wemby is a matchup nightmare! I’m proud of you bro, cause I know how much time you put into this game from our trade talks. Glad you did it with your favorite player, Spida!
@ 2010
Hats off to you on an amazing run. Future is bright in Toronto for a very very long time.
Appreciate the vote bro. Means a lot coming from a GM as accomplished as you.
While this series didn’t pan out the way we wanted, we’ll come back better for it. Between some expected sim boosts and me knowing which weak area(s) need to be addressed, I have an optimistic outlook going forward.

Thanks mph! Just like I told NewEra, it means a lot with the vote coming from a GM as decorated as you.

I think the cat is out of the bag for that award (also my vote).
So we've got our Masai and our Coach Spo in one series.

Toronto got my GM of the year vote as well...
Great win by Miami...Miami was one of the reasons I called the 5 game stretch (when Green went down) the most important of the season. I had the 4th spot and had two games against Miami on a back to back out of the 5...I ended up losing 5 in row for the first time...
Miami to me because of its versatility-- was one of the most dangerous teams in the east and most slept on- in the context of being a top east team...

lol got my vote as well 2010. You deserve it!
Great series Fat, you really put in a lot of work this season. Some GMs can say what they want about your trading, but f that.. I love it. You did it your way and got the player(s) you wanted and it paid. off.

damn looks like a runaway from GM of the year....not surprised though. Well deserved.
All because he was aggressive and took the 14% odds risk and it payed off!
Scared money don't make money!

That was part of it for me as well...but the smaller pieces plus Gobert and the fact that he did while still having that contract that I'm sure he wanted to move did it for me...Ofcourse winning the division helped too...

@2010
see:
yeah it wasn't the one singular move. But obviously grabbing a franchise altering player will headline his offseason. The other moves were icing on the cake for me.

Thanks for the votes Fat, Cap, Context and HerSports! I appreciate the recognition guys.
But I don’t want to think I’ve won it until the winner is announced by bish. There are still enough GMs that the remaining votes could go to another GM giving them enough to win. As mentioned, someone like DePalma could still win.
As for the series, I’ma give Fat his flowers. Bro coached his ass off. Down 2-0, changed lineups several times and changed coaching strategies. Then when I adjusted to his adjustment he adjusted again!
He definitely outcoached me. Props!
