Its going to take more.

I've run a league before (not here). Whoever runs it needs to be online a ton and fully committed or shit just won't work. Could be fun though. I used to have access to a bunch of rosters online that I could probably hook a simmer up with if I could find them. Probably wouldn't be too hard. They would need editing but just having the player names already there would be half the battle done already. Has draft files too. A new FBB is in development too. Probably won't be out anytime soon in the short term, but something to think about.

I hate how badly Bayless is shitted on by our team. He was our best player last year. I realize that doesn't say much, but god damn.

Drummond and Monroe for me. I see less role clashing between Drummond and Monroe. The post game will definitively run through Monroe, while Drummond will be a legitimate NBA defensive anchor from day 1, albeit probably in foul trouble often. Talent wise there is no argument, Sacramento is better, just because of how much more polished Robinson is than Drummond, but I'm just unsure how it will work offensively, and Robinson still has question marks defensively, I realize he measured well, but he still looks almost like a big SF than a legit PF, to me at least. Honestly I just am so unsure of Cousins, it makes it so hard to pick him. And I think Monroe has potential to be really good, and people tend to overlook how well he did in just his 2nd year this year, with a rookie point guard at the helm. The Kings are going to wreak havoc on the boards, especially Robinson, since that is probably the only way he's going to get the ball on the offensive end. Also I really don't think Cousins is THAT much better than Monroe, if at all. If Monroe was as black hole-ish as Cousins, and if his usage was at LeBron James levels like Cousins (smh/lol) then he probably would have had as good of numbers as Cousins, or probably better.

Interesting. I expect him to generate significant interest. I think he's worth taking a chance on. I think a team like Minnesota might be a good fit.

It will be interesting with Wade and Bosh out. Wade beasted in 08 and US was already thin up front. Love will replace him admirably but he will make Bosh look like KG defensively in retrospect.

Mo Williams > Lamar Odom at this point IMO. It all depends on how Odom approaches this season I guess. Mo is as solid a backup point/combo guard you'll find in this league, and I consider myself far from a fan of Mo Williams and his undeserving all-star appearance!

This whole Justin Schultz fiasco is just retarded. Good thing his salary is capped out to a rookie deal, I could only imagine how much more retarded it'd be if he could get offered anything.

I was shocked for a second too, then I realized this is the NBA we are talking about.

Stupid decision on his part IMO.

I think there is about a 90% chance it happens. I also think if he comes, we make a major push for Andre Iguodala or Rudy Gay or Luol Deng, or someone like that. If we get Nash, I would be willing to bet money Iguodala is traded for almost immediately after.

Still have this feeling Iggy will be a Raptor before the season. I think it all just hinges on Nash.

Feel like there are gonna be a lot of guys in the 2nd round of this draft with a chance to contribute if they are given a shot.

A locker room like OKC is exactly what a guy like Perry Jones needs.

Sounds like Zeller will be going to Cavs. Wonder what is going back. Hopefully Cleveland's first next year or something crazy.

Kill me please. If he was our guy, why wouldn't we have just traded down with Houston? So [expletive]ing horrible.

If you think Barnes is going beyond Toronto, you're crazy. He is the one guy they want, and if we had 2nd pick, I wouldn't be surprised if we took Harrison Barnes at that spot.

Oh yeah for sure, by no means do I think Monroe is a franchise player, but I think he is definitely a piece the Pistons, or any team, can build with moving forward. He is only what, 21 years old? He is no franchise player, but he is a core piece for any team moving forward imo.

That would be amazing if they did, for the Raptors at least.

My mock is gonna be butchered. I think a lot of them will be. This draft is just insane, literally outside of the first pick everything else could go any way.

The Pistons are such a mess. They are stuck in the worst position you can be in basketball, too good to draft a franchise player, but too bad to sniff the playoffs. Knight and Monroe are the only 2 pieces there worth keeping, and Knight being put in that light is generous. He has a lot to show still, but it sounds like he's a hard worker and is still young so he has time. Monroe is a stud though, definite keeper.

I just don't see why Miami doesn't go after guys like Camby, Kwame Brown, Nazr, etc. Seems there are plenty of quality bigs out there, and I don't think Ray Allen is as much as an upgrade as everyone thinks. Is he a better player than Battier/Miller? Well Miller of course, but Battier is a better and more versatile defender (would Allen have been taking plays on KD?), and a very quality spot up shooter, which is 100% the role Allen will be relegated to. Do I think Allen is a bad fit? No, not at all. But he is absolutely the last thing the Heat need IMO. There are plenty of quality, big bodied centers the Heat should be focusing their attention on. Your logic is "yeah well Bosh worked at center, so we can get by on it", well why doesn't that logic apply to your shooters? Especially when they are the reason the Heat spanked OKC in that closeout game, as we all know. Would way rather see them use their 3M exception (or part of it) on a guy like Nazr, Hawes, Camby, etc. Instead, they are gonna waste it on Ray Allen, and then what? Pick up Diop, Battie, Magloire or some other stiff big man like they do every year?

It would just be so dumb to potentially sacrifice a nearly guaranteed finals appearance because of financial reasons. Cross that bridge when you get there. People act like Harden is expiring this summer when he isn't. Besides, if they are going to deal someone off, it shouldn't be him, it should be Ibaka. If people think Harden is overrated, then what the hell is Ibaka? Are the Thunder supposed to just keep repeating this cycle everytime a player gets good? What happens in 3 years if Beal pans out? Trade him off? Stupid. If Harden and Ibaka are both going to be getting 8 figures a year, I would be choosing to give those 8 figures to Harden 10 times out of 10.

85% Toronto, 15% SAC, don't see why SAC would do it though unless Houston gives them a sweet ass deal. I'd be shocked if he was dealt, and it wasn't to Toronto though. I don't think he will be moved though, in the end.
