I wouldn't call myself a hater, but it's a side with both Rose and Westbrook and I guess I'm just stating a preference :lol:

I wouldn't (seriously) call anyone a hater here either. It's a word thrown around way too easily.

Tried a dynasty with the Kings, after 1 week I signed T-Mac on a 1 year contract. But still missing some shooter to complement Cousins and Evans inside game. So I went on a look at the free agent and found out Morrow was still in there (did not update the roster completely). I signed him for a MLE.

Line up:
C: Cousins|Dalembert|Brockman
PF:Landry|Thompson|Whiteside
SF:Mcgrady|Cassipi|Greene
SG:Morrow|Garcia
PG:Evans|Udrih|Quinn

Made the playoffs as the 7th seed, went on to lose against the Nuggets with Gerald Wallace averaging 30 PPG and Melo on the bench. They traded Billups for Wallace.

PG- Steve Nash/Goran Dragic
SG- J-Rich/Childress
SF- Grant Hill/Jared Dudley/Earl Clark
PF-Gani Lawal/Craig Smith

Those are two of the worst trades I have ever seen. :lol: Warrick has potential and Turk can be real asset at times. To just give him away was kind of stupid. He's definitely worth more than just a 2nd round pick.

Hey, the Hakim Warrick trade isn't bad. Donte Greene is a beast! In my Rockets Dynasty, he is probably my favorite player off the bench.

Tried another one with the Wizards. Started the season with a surprising 0-10 record. Traded Arenas to the OKC for Harden, Krstic and a 1st round pick. Still struggle though and we did not make the playoffs.

Got the 2nd and 5th pick for a very weak draft. Traded both of the rookie for Kendrick Perkins and their 2nd round pick but I waived the rookie.

On the second season Wall,Howard,Blatche and Thorton step it up. Wall averages 20 PPG and 6 APG, Howard 16 PPG, Blatche 18 PPG and 10 RPG, Thorton 11 PPG off the bench. Went on to be the second best team on the East with 50-32 record. Did not get any awards or in the NBA teams but we did reach the finals only to be swept by the Mavs.

Current Lineup:

C: Mcgee|Perkins|N'dyiave
PF:Blatche|Yi|Singleton
SF:Howard|Thorton
SG:Harden|Young
PG:Wall|Hinrich

We still have some cap room to sign big name free agent :D

I'm 35 and 30 now with my Kings dynasty! Woohoo!! Hoping we can get a 50-32 winning season. I realized I really needed a backup PF. Should I trade Francisco Garcia or Tayshaun Prince to the Bulls for Hakim Warrick? Tayshaun has been putting up points but can't play D like Garcia. Garcia gets 1.8 blocks and 2.2 steals a game. With 5.5 assist. But I can't score with him! I can score easy with Tayshaun. Anyone willing to help?

Ok I kept Garcia and traded Tayshaun for Warrik and Hayes. Garcia is to good of a role player and I like keeping players the Kings drafted.

I also recently started up another dynasty with my 2nd favorite team. The T-Wolves.

So far my roster is
C. Darko Milici (74)
PF. Kevin Love (82)
SF. Cory Brewer (75)
SG. Joe Johnson (86)
PG. Jonny Flynn (74)

6. Ramon Sessions (74)
7. Nathan Jawai (70)
8. Greg Steisma (67)
9. Shannon Brown (77)
10. Daquan Cook (72)
11. Dorell Wright (71)
12. Desmond Mason (69)


This team looks promising.
I traded Al Jefferson to Atlanta for Joe Johnson.
I traded Oleskyie Pecherov to Miami for Dorell Wright and Daquan Cook
I traded Ryan Gomes and a 1st Round Pick to LA Lakers for Shannon Brown
I released all the 1 year contract players.
I signed Desmond Mason to a 2 year 5.67 deal

Started one new dynasty Knicks. First season reach post-season. Fourth in East with 54-28. Eliminated in first round against Wizards 2-4. Miami and Dallas play in Finals. Miami win 4-3 :roll: Got 24 draft, drafted C: 60 rating. second round I drafted PG: 57 rating. Lost Azubuike, T-Mac and Turiaf in free agency. Now I start new season.

Why Joe Johnson? I'm sure it's easier to find someone else that's better for Al. I also have a T-Wolves dynasty, but I never traded Love or Al, simply because I don't want to settle in having the bust that is Milicic as my starting C. :lol:

I need a good scorer on my team. Joe Johnson is scoring 22-25 PPG. Yeah I might realease the biigest bust ever to. I might traded Brewer for Gortat and move Johnson to SF and start Shannon Brown. I'm currently 5-3 :)

If you've got the enthusiasm, sure. Perhaps play a few games first and be sure you're into it. I'd highly recommend taking another glance at this guide, might help you decide whether or not you want to go ahead with a new thread.
