Thanks a lot :D As I said, not really proud that I have 35 threads opened.

Lol no, I'm not ending this. As I said, it must go until December at least, but I'll continue it after that because I really like this team. :) Will try, as all the 35 past threads, to make at least two seasons, but I don't want to jinx myself. :shake:

Only I can have that, that's what the name refers to. It would be Badgerism in your case. :lol:

Yeah, I know, a big "etc.", in fact. :shake: I just hope I can get two years out of this. I think I can if I get to next January with a good amount of posts in the blog; I'm posting one game a day starting tomorrow to make all 82 and the playoffs by mid-October.

You also say two years in every story :lol: stop worrying about time limits and targets, just do the story and if you decide to quit it I think you should definitely take a break. You don't seem to be getting burnt out by doing story after story but the rest of us are lol.

Wow 36th thread! That's more than enough to go around every NBA team. Well, like other people have said, you're being obliged to do it, so at least you'll be able to stick with it. How I wish I had a project like this in school. :shake:

That's what I'm trying to do man, but blackouts, not enough replies ( :shake: ), all those things that happened to my PC, really not very lucky. So as you said, will just play and let the seasons happen.

Well, he's in the depth chart after Batum, Webster (assigned Rudy to Minnesota instead) and Luke Babbitt; something like Adonal Foyle in Orlando :lol: So yeah, it's more of a locker room voice.

Axel13 wrote:No he wants someone to teach Brandon Roy some defense!


He could use some :P But the last time I used the Blazers I have some steals and blocks with him.

He is a defense monster, man. :cool:

Yep, three of my guards (Miller, Patrick Mills and Diener) are on the trading block, so that would leave me with Armon Johnson, Bayless, Roy, Foye and Elliot Williams.
