My species reproduce by binary fission so how is that going to work when it comes to retirement?
Career ending?
You'll miss 90-95 games, tops.
Elon is going to attempt to mate with you, but in the end you are going to self-annihilate and spawn a... well, spawn.
Those of us stuck on losing teams our careers should get to band together for one final playoff run before we all retire

09/10 25-Game Update
Standings:
Trades:
@Skizzo (IND), @Dan (DET) - Good news Dan! No wait, this is your team getting rid of decent players in return for future picks (and also giving away one pick though??)
@Stobzilla & @Samid (SAS) - I suspect the Spurs aren't trying to be good.
@P-Nut (MEM), @hobbers (BOS) - This seems very even. It does leave Boston without a great Center, but Kobe though?
@V.O. (NJ) - a "win now" move for the Nets
@weetee (ATL) - I guess that means no Solius-level money for Atlanta next season
@Dr. Dwayne (UTA) - simply unhinged behaviour by Oklahoma

That OKC trade is bizarre.
Looks like Lakers no longer top dogs. That's fine though. We won our rings, had the best season of all time, and got paid.

You will at the very least remain the most successful for sometime. I have got a taste for the high life and am retiring this season.
Been carried my entire career so thanks chaps it's all coke and hookers for me from here.
You were both Semi-Finals MVP and Finals MVP in 2006, so I think that one at least was your own doing.
Was looking for myself higher up the league 
Never understood why I get paid that much - decent playmaking aside - they could afford a solius kinda player for that dough. Gotta hang with Lebron and maybe make the playoffs- wohoo.

09/10 All Star Weekend
09/10 All Star Weekend
Standings
Slam Dunk Challenge
Another win by @BenitoSTARR! Suck it, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Eric Gordon.
3 Point Contest
Another Caf-dominated list of participants, with @Dr. Dwayne, @BenitoSTARR, @P-Nut, @Samid, @hobbers and @V.O.. But can they beat Kyle Korver?
1st Round (4 advance)
Martell Webster: 20
Kyle Korver: 24
23 isn't enough for Samid, he's out.
hobbers is eliminated from his first ever 3 Point Contest.
25 is enough for V.O.! He goes through with BenitoSTARR, P-Nut and Dr. Dwayne. Kyle Korver is out!
2nd Round (2 advance)
Dr. Dwayne is out, and V.O. needs at least 28!
Oof, that's not 28. It will be BenitoSTARR against P-Nut in the final round. The last time that happened was in 2005, and BenitoSTARR won by one point.
Final Round
Very good start! Can P-Nut match it?
Nope! BenitoSTARR is the 3-Point champion for the 5th time, pulling away from Kyle Korver and Solius (who missed out due to injury)
All Star Game
@BenitoSTARR, @hobbers, @V.O. and @Samid return for the East. @Solius barely misses out due to injury.
@P-Nut, @altodevil, @oneniltothearsenal and @Dr. Dwayne return for the West, and @Salt Bailly makes his All Star debut at the tender age of 32.

Didn‘t realize Denver is dead last. @lebronjames
That was quick
I’ve only checked the caf twice today as well. I always seem to log on the second after you’ve posted

Dunk, drop and destroyed you all.
Scared of Dallas. Scared of Durant.
09/10 End of Regular Season & Playoff Bracket
09/10 End of Regular Season
@Dan has fallen down the stairs. As a result his overall rating has dropped to 58.
Final Regular Season Standings
East: Of the four Cafite teams who made it, two are in great form (@V.O.'s Nets and @BenitoSTARR's Knicks), and two aren't (@hobbers' Celtics and @weetee's Hawks). That might give us an indication of how the playoffs are going to play out. I'd be worried about those Wizards either way, though.
@Dan missed out barely, fittingly going 50 wins since the last update and 50% for the entire season (though of course he'd be injured for the full playoffs and more anyway). @sebsheep and @Skizzo were never going to make it, but they made a much better impression towards the end of the season regardless. @Samid, @Solius and @reelworld made a different kind of impression.
West: @altodevil and @P-Nut seem to be serious contenders in the West. @Stobzilla's Spurs took quite the leap up the standings since the last update, barely making the playoffs. It's a rather disappointing end of the season for @oneniltothearsenal, @The Cat, @Dr. Dwayne and @Salt Bailly.

Finally, a reminder of the retirement rules. The Cat has already decided to retire at the end of the season. The others who are eligible for early retirement (and reincarnation) are Samid, Skizzo, reelworld and Dan after his injury. You don't have to retire, and you can still win stuff even if you're not top dog. Or, if you're Samid, you could be going for the all time NBA 'most different teams' record.

It's a bit wild that you haven't been in the 2nd Round before.
Fire my agent immediately.
Retiring is for wimps
Kiss my rings.

I have performed miracles to drag this mess of a franchise.to a first round sweep.
Look on the bright side, at least having the worst record in the league means your team has a good shot at a good pick in the upcoming draft...
... is what I would have said hadn't Denver traded their 2010 pick to Toronto in 2006 for Smush Parker. Toronto traded it to Orlando last season.
