2-1 sim, with the only loss a 5 point road defeat to the Nuggets. Looked good our first two games, hosting Portland and going away to the Clippers. I'm a little concerned about our shooting at the swingman spots right now, odd as that sounds with Redick and Green, but man, I'm LOVING the Bosh/Bynum duo and Lawson has looked good at PG so far.

Three in a row for the $100 mil team. Kobe shot like poo poo but Granger and Dirk did most of the scoring for us. Kobe shot 25% from the field and 17% from three while Dirk shot 57% from the field and 43% from the field. Even Granger shot 53% from the field and 60% from three. We're averaging 101ppg and allowing only 83 points a game. I'll take it. We have Granger and Dirk in the top 10 in scoring, Bogut top 10 in blocks, and Kidd top 10 in steals.
Holy crap to LeBron averaging 40 points a game...dropping 55 in the preseason opener and following it with 43 the next game. Spurs missed out.

Bynum is #2 in scoring, #1 in rebounding, and tied for #1 in blocks, and I'm not running the single post. Oh and he's 1 in PER, too - 42.7.

I still don't understand how Bynum is rated the way he is...he's a bust in the NBA, whoever made the league file did a bad job when it came to him, hah hah. But I noticed that too for Bynum, tearing it up.

You have to remember, the 2012 file is Bynum before all his injuries, and he was the clear-cut #1B center behind Dwight then.

1-2 sim with two close losses although one at home. Will try to figure out what's best for us offensively.

Eh...Still, he's garbage now and not relevant at all and wont be. I get that it's a simulation league and all...Are you considering adjusting player ratings to make the league file more realistic in the future? Or are you just going to leave it so players like Bynum are really good but players like Paul George are just starter players instead of superstars...etc etc...I feel like I'm rambling on now, hah hah.

Oh just saw we have injuries to 2 of our starters, it will be difficult to gauge the team at this point...

Not adjusting player ratings. I've always taken the viewpoint that each sim league is its own universe and develops its own story and stars as the seasons go by. I've never understood leagues that re-rate players to reflect the NBA as time goes on. Then it's a form of gambling rather than a true sim league IMO.

Wow we're 3-1. Never would've expected that. Wins over HOU, ORL, CHI, and a close 4-point loss to GSW.
Favors leading the way with 21/9 to go with 3 steals and 2.5 blocks.
Gasol with 17/9/2/2, Thomas with 17/7, and Pekovic with 11/5 off the bench.

I do wonder how many teams are being experimental with their lineups rather than going with what they plan to run in the regular season. That's always the biggest X factor with preseason sims.

0-3 sim with no lineup submitted. Terrible defense thus far, will make some changes and see what happens.

2-0 sim for the Spurs.
Game 1 - Phoenix 107 @ San Antonio 128
3 players top the 20 points mark (John Henson 23, Darren Collison 20 & Chandler Parson 20), AD & Josh Howard have 17 each. Team shoots 58.7% from the floor & 46.7% from three point range. We only have 7 turnovers while forcing 15.
Game 2 - San Antonio 102 @ Portland 82
Darren Collison is 2 rebounds away from a triple double - 23 points, 10 assists & 8 rebounds. 14 turnovers this time but we force 22 from the Blazers. 6 players in double figures.
runsNgoses - Wouldn't say we missed out by passing on LeBron. We have a very young team that we plan on building around. AD is a key player and will become a defensive monster "when" he develops. Have to stay positive. We will take our lumps as our core of young players (AD, Henson, Parsons) develops.

3-1 sim for us. Turnovers were an issue, but other than that, pretty satisfied with what I've seen.

...I just realized I forgot to uncheck the Coach Settings box, so we were using Rudy T's setup.

...I just realized I forgot to uncheck the Coach Settings box, so we were using Rudy T's setup. Yeah, same here. And I guess most teams too. So 2-2 sim, but not really relevant with the coache's settings, cause they're way different/opposite to what we'll usually run.

Knicks went 3-0
Miami @ New York 115 - 101
New York @ Philadelphia 112 - 106
Milwaukee @ New York 96 - 81
Dwight Howard has been our main scorer but I like what Bargnani is doing off the bench avg. 16 points a game
I too forgot to unchecked the coaches settings.

0-3
HTML box scores not working for me, so I don't know the details. Checked the season stats and it looks ugly. Gonna be a long year or three.

1-1. Too many TO's and sort of poor defense...
