awesome job, Roy really stood up, congrats on winning the title

 

[Big C-Dub]

thanks for all the congrats, off-season starts tomorrow...

[Big C-Dub]

You gonna try to get Turkoglu or Andre Miller?

nah, I'm gonna stick with Outlaw at the 3 and develop Bayless to be my point

 

[Thesportsguy]

hope you get someone good in free agency

 

[Big C-Dub]

^^^ True. His team has insane depth at every position but point guard. Personally, I'd try and get a point guard, but that's just because I hate using Bayless.

I love Bayless in this game, and I'm not looking to sign any big free agents. But I do have a trade in the works.

 

[Big C-Dub]

Hoping your trade goes through .

don't worry, it already did :wave:

[Big C-Dub]

damn nice trade. McGee should be good for you. You also got some other good players. And you didn't really have to give up all that much either.

Whats your starting lineup gonna be now?

Bayless
Roy
Outlaw
Aldridge
Oden

?

yeah, Blake and Przybilla were both rated around 80, but I didn't really do all that much with them. and yes, that's the lineup I'm really excited about it

nice trade!
blatche is a beast

I know, his style is like Anthony Randolph, but not as explosive

Holy shit, you just stole all of their big dudes!

haha yup, I gave them Przybilla though, they made him their starting center. I didn't really want Haywood but I had to throw him in so it would work with the salary cap.

 

[mike3]

Great pickups, McGee's awesome to play with

 

[Big C-Dub]

:bump:

 

[Big C-Dub]

Too... many... centers... Ugh...

Just playing. Nice trade, now Bayless is gonna get at least 30 minutes a game since Blake's gone.

You probably could've gotten a draft pick out of that too, but good stuff nevertheless.

Blatche is gonna be playing a lot of PF, and I'm not planning on giving Haywood solid minutes, might look to trade him later on in the season.

[Big C-Dub]

whats his rating?

73 I think, he's not going to see much action

 

[Big C-Dub]

Haywood is actually starter potential. He has solid post defense, he can hit a short mid-range jumper, grab rebounds and finish at the rim. He's actually more reliable than McGee (except for when he auto-dunks) on both sides of the court.

I've already played a few games of my 2nd season and Haywood has trouble finishing around the hoop, his hands aren't that great either.
