But you had 9 points in 4 minutes, so extrapolated for a full game you would have scored 80 ppg easy.
That's like Southgate keeps on ignoring Palmer and when England is technically out of the Euros he finally get's on for the last ten minutes and scores a (hateful) hat trick.

Rookie and all defence first team. Quite happy with that.

3rd and 5th in the draft. Looking like Murray and Saric. Good players to add to the dynasty.

increase in cap can have intetesting effects. Someone is about to get paid. Is this the year KD joined GSW irl?

15/16 Season Review

@BenitoSTARR @Dan @Dr. Dwayne @P-Nut @Salt Bailly @Samid @Skizzo @Solius @Stobzilla @The Cat @V.O. @altodevil @hobbers @oneniltothearsenal @reelworld @sebsheep @weetee @Heine



A new dynasty?

Regular season





Awards

Some of the early season predictions didn't quite hold up (non-Durant MVP, Cafite 6MOY and MIP), but this is still a fine haul for the Caf.







Regular season stats




Feats





Draft Lottery

At least we avoided the possibility of San Antonio getting another set of great picks. 3rd and 5th are good picks, but this isn't the strongest draft ever (depending on if @Samid and @Skizzo put their kids in the draft, in which case it probably is quite strong after all). Quite unlucky by Oklahoma City to get the 4th pick, though to be fair it was the single most likely result.




League news

Skizzo and Samid have decided to retire! Skizzo never really reached the heights he could have hoped for, but he still had a fair career. Samid too, though he'll be disappointed never to win that 3 Point Contest he got so close to. He might be mollified by his induction into the Hall of Fame.










Some leap!




Up Next: Draft and Free Agency
next year I need to be averaging a triple double to stay on the right pace

Is he even a free agent? :lol:

nobbers will walk away with most of our cap space, then hopefully we will just keep building depth and let us youngsters develop while we we help alto out of his wheelchair for training and games

Enjoy it while you can I say - upper management sometimes has a very different idea about squad development.

2016 Draft and Free Agency

@BenitoSTARR @Dan @Dr. Dwayne @P-Nut @Salt Bailly @Solius @Stobzilla @The Cat @V.O. @altodevil @hobbers @oneniltothearsenal @reelworld @sebsheep @weetee @Heine

Top 10:







Free Agency

Dan II, Nobbers and (surprisingly) sontodevil all decide to re-sign with their current teams. The leap in the salary cap means some of them are paid disgustingly well. The latter two are now the joint best players in the league, together with Giannis Antetokounmpo.





Stobzilla II declined the offer by New York and went out into free agency, but then:




Trades

So many trades...!


Dan II (Pistons > Lakers) - a new Lakers dynasty? Well, maybe not quite yet.


Dan II (Lakers), P-Nut & BenitwoSTARLETT (Nuggets)


reelworld II (Bucks), P-Nut & BenitwoSTARLETT (Nuggets) - The Nuggets are really sure the Bucks will be really bad in 2019. But I suspect Mario Hezonja is, on average, a better player than they can expect that pick to turn into.


SebJr (Heat), TwoNil (Raptors) - seems fair?


TwoNil (Raptors) - Toronto clearly trying to build something around TwoNil here.


Dr. Dwayne & The Cub (Thunder) - this will look like a good trade as long as Chase Budinger doesn't get worse and Terrence Jones gets better.


Lil' V.O. & weeweetee (Rockets) - the Rockets are trading out their older players for younger players.




Salt Bailly & Pepper Bailly (Kings), Dr. Junior (Cavaliers) - two very different strategies here.


Dr. Junior (Cavaliers) - yep, the Cavs are clearly trying to get good.


SebJr (Heat), Dr. Junior (Cavaliers) - yup!


Solius (Pelicans) - seems like a good trade?

Oof that's a long old contract. Hope we're investing in the facilities too.

Why do my teams always just start giving away first round picks like we're running a charity?

Nobbers back to go for another ring

Great with Murray, but I question Abrines over Saric. But I see he is a better 3p shooter, so that might be the reason
