Gaming The RedCafe NBA Simulation 32/33 | Mid Season Update | Everyone is getting old, but some people are even older | BasketballGM

I'm pretty much happy to play defence and let the others do the offensive work it seems. As long as I get another ring I'm happy

Nuggets win! They still have to win game 2, though.

Still good enough to put up solid defensive numbers and sneak into the playoffs through the back door. Not too shabby considering big V.O. was literally dead by the same age...

One to forget for Lil' V.O., as the Suns take an easy 1-0 lead!

Great performance by Lil-Nut!

The Spurs will take 35-point wins every day of the week - Michael Owen



Rockets 126-123 Thunder

K8TpKUs.png


Slightly closer for the Nuggets this time, but the Suns are still too strong.



LhlRskb.png


Dan II with 12 points in 9 minutes from the bench. The old dog still has it.



4TMWmZN.png


Sonius with the 20/20/3, but the combo of Jonathan Kuminga and Johnuel Fland (amazing name) proves too much this time.



Rockets 137-130 Thunder

PqE8I5Y.png


9 offensive rebounds from Lil' V.O.! Almost as amazingly, Terry Dischinger scored 17 points on 1-13 shooting. Stop fouling him, I guess? Although the Suns win anyway, so maybe just do your thing.



ryxSUT1.png


Lil-Nut with the 40-bomb, but it's hard to argue with the 70.7% eFG from the Mavericks.



PUB8mqd.png


The Kings take the lead!



Rockets 116-108 Thunder

hZ2ORi5.png


The least surprising sweep in playoff history. Heine barely had to try. Lil' V.O. did try, but he needs scorers next to him.



e2SNKNY.png


40 wasn't enough for Lil-Nut last game, so this time he gets it done with 44! 12 three pointers to boot!



9mYfAwp.png


Sonius leading the way as the Spurs tie the series up. 24/16/4 is a very pleasing stat line.



Rockets 108-113 Thunder

i3Jchtv.png


Damn, this series is a bit cursed with injuries.



CB3aqzG.png


Speaking of injuries! At least it's a minor one. Also the Spurs win anyway.



Rockets 119-104 Thunder

DhDZxzJ.png


The Cub with the team high +10 +/- in his 14 minutes, as Timberwolves lose game 6. Here's a thought: maybe play him more in game 7?



it1Y2Kk.png


The Spurs are through!

70Q5Wam.png


Very harsh on the Dallas Mavericks, as they're again stuck by injuries. Whatever the cause, Minnesota are through!
 
Well done Spurs (No need to comment on our own games). Though getting Pettit and Robertson shows that the Spurs is building another great team

I'll go out on a limb and say that the Pistons need weeweetee to play more than 4 minutes if they want to beat the Knicks. Particularly if Two Nil is going to do his 34/16/7 thing. Then again he also had 9 turnovers, which isn't... great.



m4dpBXe.png


Easy win for the Nets! Nobbers leading the way, but BenitwoSTARRLET did her thing too.



Celtics 90-94 Pacers
76ers 131-95 Heat

TSQgMzI.png


See? weeweetee doesn't go out with injury, and he drops 37/11/7, with no turnovers. Not like Two Nil slacked off either, with his own 31/21/13, but Detroit get the win.



XSlKgY2.png


Well, this one isn't going to go more than 4 games. Prove me wrong.



Celtics 123-94 Pacers
76ers 122-108 Heat

EpCJ9nv.png


Two more good games by the Cafites. Again the Pistons come away with the win, though.



BXf5zoD.png


Well, 12 points is closer than whatever the Nets beat the Hornets by in game 2.



Celtics 104-102 Pacers
76ers 131-123 Heat

KPyMhyC.png


This is the Two Nil and weeweetee show. This time it's the former's turn to lead his team to victory. Back to square one!



HYz0Dmp.png


The Nets beat the Hornets 4-0? Chance in a million.

Shame about the BenitwoSTARRLET injury, but at least there's a few games left of Round 1, and then she'll be back at some point in Round 2.



Celtics 119-109 Pacers
76ers 126-93 Heat

ngfOzjH.png


The Knicks re-take the lead!



Celtics 103-111 Pacers

7oNFXeC.png


Not quite sure how Two Nil only ended up playing 21 minutes, but I feel like that was a mistake by the coach. He had 5 fouls, but surely it's better if he fouls out after playing 30 minutes than doesn't play 30 minutes because they were afraid he'd foul out? This just let weeweetee dominate the game, and we're off to game 7!



Celtics 107-108 Pacers

v3BKGGp.png


An off game from Two Nil, and the Pistons take the series! And what a series it was.



Celtics 95-85 Pacers

I'm just not going to say anything at all for this series unless Heine does something spectacular.



BQ7tAkB.png


The very slight underdogs take the lead! And that with Lil-Nut injured after only 16 minutes. He did get 17 points in those minutes, mind.



eG1vSSk.png


LeBristons. LeDetroit?



xmQDWm9.png


Now this is a bit of a surprise. I guess it shouldn't, given they're both 57-win teams, but there's a reason the Celtics have been in the three past NBA Finals. I guess there's also a reason they lost all of them, though.

1FDQCt5.png


:rolleyes:



w3euIz9.png


Lil-Nut with a good game, but it doesn't help when the other good performances all came out of San Antonio, basically.



KokYMbl.png


Oh! Maybe this is a series after all.


IsdsBiS.png


Brooklyn wilted under pressure.

fhnRkPa.png


:confused:



BKeNWCk.png


A very efficient performance from Sonius. There's just a clear starting 5 difference here.



tQ0WySt.png


Just a casual 280 point game. The 76ers should get an award for scoring 150 when one of their starters got 0. The Pistons should shoot Charles Jenkins out of a cannon into the sun.



d6O1Sa9.png


Wilt and Elton Brand - what else is there to say?



Nothing is decided yet. Except for Phoenix v Houston, which is absolutely decided.

The Timberwolves make it 2-2! The Cub turning back the years with 12 rebounds in 13 minutes.



h2gJG8F.png


I get the distinct impression the Detroit Pistons have no chance unless weeweetee pulls out one of his patented 50-point performances.



ftBGO4R.png


BenitwoSTARRLET going 2/2 from three. Maybe she should shoot more? Though I guess it worked.

1kTDl8O.png


The universe is safe.



iPcMJDE.png


Sonius getting a 31/14/2 in 37 minutes.



ElXE79n.png


weeweetee had a relatively poor game, and he was by far the best Detroit performer. Maybe there's a sign in there, somewhere.



uAaAZxD.png


Nobbers does his job, but the rest of his team decidedly did not. I guess that goes for the Celtics too, except Wilt got 31 points on 14-21 shooting. You really shouldn't be losing to a team with an eFG of 47.6%.

GfHyine.png


11/18/0 from The Cub in 19 minutes. The old man still has it. I guess Lil-Nut contributed too.



eyJwglJ.png


Inefficient shooting killed Brooklyn in this series, and that's the end of their playoff run.

EiyJ1cu.png


Only 4 points in it, but the Spurs are through! Lil-Nut really did his best to stop it, putting up 37 points. Sonius played well, though, as did most of his starting mates.

It's four in a row for the Suns! That also makes it 8 rings for Heine! Though I have in on good authority that Wemby won't renew his contract with Phoenix.

Let me know if you want to stay at your current team, or want to leave (if you're at <1% you're definitely leaving), or just roll the dice.

If you're, say, Lil-Nut, you're definitely going to a worse team. If you're Dr. Junior, you're definitely going to a better one.
