He's good, averaging like 16-17 ppg but he is basically a clone of Theo Johnson, only far worse than Theo. Meanwhile my C Donald Gibbs is shit, he doesn't rebound at all and he's inconsistent in the post yet he's rated 80 and has A- for potential so I'm reluctant to trade both of them, even though my team would be better with other types of players. I need a bigger SF for starters as Jordan is only 6'6, and I need a C who can rebound. There's some really interesting top 5 prospects in this draft, a 6'7 PG, two C's and a SF... really considering trading both Gibbs and Jordan for top 5 picks, but I think I'd regret Gibbs because he could wind up being rated in the high 80's/early 90's. So confusing

Charlotte Bobcats
PG - Brandon Jennings - 96
SG - James Harden - 91
SF - Mike Wilkes - 84 (#4 pick in 2012)
SG - Jim Holmes - 80 (#2 pick in 2013)
Won a championship two seasons ago, Jennings and Harden is a beast of a combination in the backcourt but Wilkes has let them down by not developing the way he should have. Was rated 83 when he was drafted. Could have taken at least 4 better players.
Milwaukee Bucks
SF - Richie Barber - 95 (#1 pick in 2011)
PG - Radoslav Sebic - 90 (#1 pick in 2012)
PF - Josh Smith - 84
SG - Joe Johnson - 80
Had back to back #1 picks and pretty much hit them both out of the park. I thought they should've taken Theo Johnson at #1 instead of Sebic but ultimately they decided to take Sebic and let Jennings walk in FA the season after. They have 6 shooting guards for some reason.
LA Lakers
PG - John Wall - 96
PF - Derrick Favors - 88
C - Amare Stoudemire - 86
SF - Anderson Bass - 82 (#2 pick in 2014)
Kobe and Pau Gasol left them in the same off-season, I thought they would be awful but they managed to sign Wall and Stoudemire, trade for Favors and draft Bass within the space of 2 seasons.
San Antonio Spurs
SF - Felix Guzman - 93 (#4 pick in 2011, signed from Detroit)
PG - Manny Santos - 89 (#3 pick in 2011, signed from LA Clippers)
C - Rex Childress - 88 (#7 pick in 2012)
PF - Tyrus Thomas - 84 (signed from Milwaukee Bucks)
SF - Christophe Micoud - 81 (#9 pick in 2011, signed from Detroit)
PG - Ervin Burke - 77 (#5 pick in 2014)
The new Miami Heat. They traded Tim Duncan away seasons ago before he retired, picked Rex Childress to replace him (a fantastic pick too) and in this off-season just gone signed Manny Santos, Felix Guzman, Tyrus Thomas and Christophe Micoud. Micoud was a strange signing, he's spent his career stuck behind Guzman at Detroit and when he finally has the chance to get some major minutes he signs with the same team as Guzman lol.
Golden State Warriors
PG - Stephon Curry - 92
SF - Carmelo Anthony - 87
SG - Monta Ellis - 86
PF - Wilson Chandler - 86
Picked up Melo and Jeff Green in season #1 and haven't changed the team at all since.
And the reigning champions..
Sacramento Kings
SG - Tyreke Evans - 97
C - Demarcus Cousins - 91
PF - Jason Thompson - 80
They won the championship last season (and knocked us out of the play-offs) but it was mostly on the back of the play of their then point guard Edgar Vincent, who signed with New York in the off-season. They have Yao coming off the bench and just traded for a solid point guard called Arthur Ferguson who's averaging 14/8 since his arrival, but they suck this season.

After 12 Games i am not a starter yet, but i think i am on the brink to replace Nick Young. I like that athletic type because he is fast and has good ball handling from the beginning. Shooting isnt a prob at all, i often try to draw to the basket and this works out well for me.
edit:
In Game 14 against the Hawks i am first time starter. 22pts 5reb 3ast- could have been better , but still ok
This time i want to complete at least one season, i try to stay with teh Wizards its a great team and we are not that bad; 7-6 wins at the moment.
Is this a bug with wrong numbers in MyPlayer mode?
i.e. Evan Turner has #33, Griffin #11, Iguodala #1 just to name a few, its a bit annoyning.
Here a small impression: -

Also for those following, the Donald Gibbs saga is over. I lost my 4th game in a row, he finished with 10 points, 4 rebounds and a block so I'd had enough. Luckily for me he has 5 stars for trade value.
I looked at a bunch of players, Anthony Randolph, Dwight Howard, Rex Childress, Derrick Favors... until I settled on this deal:
Phoenix trades:
Donald Gibbs (81)
Kobe Bryant (85)
Taj Gibson (74)
'16 2nd round draft pick
LA Clippers trade:
Blake Griffin (95)
Quincy Holloway (68)
Rob Westphal (65)
The Clippers had a REALLY good young team two seasons ago, they looked like this:
PG - Manny Santos - 89
SG - Eric Gordon - 88
SF - Al-Farouq Aminu - 85
PF - Blake Griffin - 95
C - Spencer Hawes - 77
And somehow managed to fuck it up, traded or lost EVERY player from their starting 5 except for Blake and surrounded him with crap. I figured they'd be better off rebuilding, so they got Gibbs with his A potential, Kobe's 14 million expiring and a pick.
