Flynn putting up some points

Nice day from Al Jeff also

[LC AAU]

Jefferson didn't shoot too well, but well enough to put up good number. Flynn again beasting, good for him. Nice job for ROTM

[Kia Kaha]

Flynn is balling right now. Rookie of the year????

Great win and you managed to hold the grizzlies under 90 which is great as they are a scoring force in this game

[Sharkweather]

Oh damn, first back-to-back wins against my Grizz.

Looks like Flynn is turning into quite the player for the T-Wolves, thats awesome.

[CB4]

Great game for Flynn. He tore me up when I played the T'Wolves.

[DJ Rhude]

Nice a two game winning streak.....Flynn bounced back nicely from that spanking Nash gave him

[Vinsane]

There ya go Mike, winning streak. Add that to ROTM, Ramon Sessions beasting. K-Love and Al Jeff getting those double-doubles and the T'Wolves are a muh-fucking force to be reckoned with.

man, I wanted Sessions

Flynn's mid range J was working that game. Just taking advantage of a sub par defender again in Iverson. Felt good getting them to fall.

Yeah, Gasol did a decent job of getting a hand in Al's face but he did great pulling down a number of offensive rebounds for second chance opportunities.

solid win, way to string em' together.
looks like Jefferson and Love dominated the glass for you as well

Yep, team was surprisingly active on defense and on the glass this game. It was nice. lol. I'm starting to get the timing aspect of rebounding in 2k10 down.

Jefferson didn't shoot too well, but well enough to put up good number. Flynn again beasting, good for him. Nice job for ROTM

Thanks. Flynn is a stud. He almost reminds me of Chris Paul. Article on that maybe sometime in the near future. :tapedshut:

It's possible. Griffin is a bust. Harden is scoring decently in OKC but isn't the distributor that Flynn is. Thabeet, yeah. Evans is doing alright in Sac-Town but that is still K-Mart's team and he's surrounded with a bunch of shitties. Stephen Curry meh, too many people in GS need the ball.

Rubio is overseas, etc etc. Flynn has all the opportunity in the world to win it if I can manage to continue this kind of play with him.

Couple of nice wins there. I bet most of Melo's points came from that play where someone sets him a screen and he gets an open jumper at the elbow if your SG doesn't switch fast enough, dude did that atleast 10 times on me in my game against the Nuggets, lol.

lol, yep. That is exactly the play. Thankfully I had Brewer chasing him around and considering he is 6'9 and long, he was able to "contain" Melo for the most part. Was still a close game. That game was also won down low, on the boards.

Oh damn, first back-to-back wins against my Grizz.

Don't feel bad. Memphis is dwelling in the bottom of the WC standings.

Great game for Flynn. He tore me up when I played the T'Wolves.

I saw that. haha. I really didn't expect him to be this good in game.

Nice a two game winning streak.....Flynn bounced back nicely from that spanking Nash gave him

I'm sure he'll take a lot more as the season progresses. Hopefully, makes him better in the process.

Should be interesting to see how he finds a way to slow down Chris Paul next game.

There ya go Mike, winning streak. Add that to ROTM, Ramon Sessions beasting. K-Love and Al Jeff getting those double-doubles and the T'Wolves are a muh-fucking force to be reckoned with.

Sessions is great at the 2. Granted, I get shit on by bigger, more aggressive 2 guards but the speed and passing ability really fits the run and gun style that Rambis intends to utilize this year and that I'm playing with in game.

Still a piece away from making the playoffs I think but definitely hope for the future.

Sean Williams is making his presence felt as well. He's averaged 5 points, 5 boards and 2 blocks in the past 2 games.

man, I wanted Sessions

If Rubio would've came to the NBA this year, Sessions would not be in a Wolves jersey right now. Blessing in disguise I suppose.

I appreciate all the replies guys. Thanks for following. :joystick:

To be honest, the thought of drawing something up for Stephen Jackson crossed my mind considering the turmoil going on in Golden State but it really wouldn't fit into what I'm trying to do.

Definitely looking to build through the draft and develop the young talent on my roster, much like the Blazers have done over the past couple of years. Try to pick up young, solid talent with some upside in free agency, etc etc.

I do think I will have the cap room to make a huge splash in free agency but Wade/Lebron in a Wolves jersey? Yeah, not exactly the most realistic scenario.

Flynn, Love and Jefferson are the core I intend to build around. I can't guarantee Brewer and Sessions will have their starting jobs at the 2 and 3 come next season if I manage to find upgrades at those spots.

I don't understand why people stress so much about realism. I can understand trades and what not but when it comes to FA if you make an offer, and they accept? Fair game. You shouldn't have to dumb down your game, or not make the moves you want to for the approval of others, based on "realism". Don't know man, never really a fan of the realism argument. /rant.

[mfbmike]

I feel you.

I guess it has to do with more of "dumbing" down my game than realism I suppose. If I manage to land a top tier FA like that, the game will become too easy for me imo and I'm trying to avoid that. I'd rather take a group of mid-tier guys, see them develop and make my push like that.

If this year's game factors team location when it comes to free agency bidding, I probably wouldn't be able to land them either way. This is all assuming they don't re-sign and even test free agency waters.

I've always been a fan of realism in my chises though. Guilty as charged. :s:

Pfft. Damn that if you don't win six ships in the next five years I'm not following anymore.
