Hard to blame you for not predicting Kidd going to the team that had CP3.

Yeah, is what it is. Should have just took the guy.

Only because I think Kemp would have fallen (and otherwise is more replaceable).

I’m not sure you need Kidd anyway though.

In your shoes I’d have probably banked on him dropping too.

I don't know if I got enough top end talent around LeBron and Robinson to compete with others - though Porter and Jones are good complements, but what I know for sure that this is some nasty defense around LeBron - DRob, Jones, Bowen, Porter, RoCo, Hill, Diaw. No weak links and pretty switchable. One of the best defensive teams I built.

Thabo - 3.7
Rodman - 3.7
Deke - (2.7) 3.0

I can easily say this is my lowest FGA bench ever, but it is still effective, no junk players

Well. My team turned out pretty good.

I think that Mullin and curry form a lethal duo.
Pippen gives me defense on wing amd secondary playmaking
Malone is an mvp bigman who can give me lowpost
Gobert is one of the best screeners in the game setting picks
Bench is great, imo, with barry, tucker and adams

Nay, it is *I* who bungled this. :lol:

At a glance I think you may have the best team, very strong contender for sure.

I hope you're using an older version of Malone. More midrange pop.

Yup. Second mvp season, most of his shots were midrange.

Yeah in the late 90s he was like one of the best midrange shooters ever.

Absolutely.

The teams in the west have, on average, been run better and have procured better teams.

I think LeBron's dominance discouraged teams from going all in. Since LeBron moved to the West, I'd argue the East is gradually gaining the upper hand.

Up Flaco

I'm not happy with the last two rounds. Maybe I'll feel better when I see how all the teams stack up.

Everyone learned a new name today. :lol:

Maybe I should have gone with Michael "The Animal" Smith but he wasn't really a center.
