Yes, I nabbed one of my three main targets! Bench depth on the way to being solidified.
Congrats to all those whose made signings, I see some VERY intriguing deals. To those who didn't, there's still good value out there.
I'm glad I have my SG finally set

Welcome to Indy Mr. Daniels
I wish I didn't forget to put bids in. A couple of guys I wanted got picked up
There's another round right?
Thanks bee.
Really happy with Donyell Marshall. Should be a good complement.
I grossly overpaid for Posey and Smith but they fill a huge need. Cleaves as well. Posey may start at SG over Manu and make Manu a 6th man as a backup SF/SG.
Can we bid now for the next round?
I REALLY like the Joe Smith signing
Joe Smith has an important role, especially in the playoffs. His defense will be important.
I don't mind overpaying for Posey and Smith. I'm gonna be over the cap long-term anyway. May as well max out while I can since my core is already established. Plus Posey may start too. He's a better shooter and defender than Manu.
That's why I didn't care about getting Jay Williams. I would have been happy with Cassell, Posey, and Smith.
I'm not done yet. Got to fill up the rest of the roster.
Wow Joe Smith is higher than Okafor on the index.
Yeah I noticed that.
Also, Posey's defense went from a A- at SF to a B+ at SG.
I want to bring both Smith and Manu off the bench for their scoring so I'm interested to see what training camp brings about it. I'm gonna train Smith for sure and either Posey or Manu.
Aarom Mckie is also rated higher on the index over Cleaves at the point. Can't wait for training camp.
When is camp

Wow!
I had no idea Ben Wallace was hurt for 34 days when I traded for him. Son of a *****! Stupid!
I also voted for those harsher tax penalties when I had all of those contracts and had a bad team that couldn't get points. I think a problem is teams could just resign their own players and the stars are so easy to keep that elite teams stay elite. You guys know that I could send all of my cap space like Houston did and the resign Paul, Roy, Dirk and be way into the tax. A team like the hornets wouldn't really even have to pay a lot of points for a
Barkley
Jackson
Turk
Garnett
Okur
starting 5, but they let those guys go because in the real NBA you can't afford to give out bad contracts.
I had a good season inbetween two bad one with a solid point guard, I just had no depth at the time, I would say my team looked a lot like yours except not as atrociously hopeless before you lucked out Grant Hill, and as I said earlier, I still would have had a Francis, Allen, Dirk core had neither of those picks ever been on my team. You guys act like terrible unprotected picks don't get traded for crap all the time. Ask the Knicks and Rockets if you need a refresh of your memory.
To be fair, the pick I got from the Mavs (Al Jefferson) was for Sam Cassell who helped them get to the Finals. I didn't expect him to give up after Malone retired or the bustahyndes/kaitos debacle which helped the pick become really good. Plus, that pick was traded two years before I drafted Jefferson. It was a good trade for the Mavs at the time and he later got more value for Cassell than what I got. He just quit unexpectedly.
Beeball, you're gonna try to do the same thing I did. You admitted this week by proclaiming you have 2-3 seasons to hit a home run in FA before you're rookie contracts expire. That's why you traded Allen. So you could stack your roster before Paul and Roy go into FA. And you will try do it. You know you will. Who are you trying to fool right now?
What I've Learned In My First Season In Sim League
Trades never die.
I will, but ask commish what my bids will be this season a learned my mistake with the Allen signing, 3 million a year more and a guy becomes unmovable. I guess my problem is you knowing you overpaid those guys. If a good deal comes along I'll use my space, and go about 10 million over, but that's about it. But I guess I'll just shut up until I have to resign those guys...
I don't think 78 overspent that bad. If you want a guy in FA and you feel comfortable with what you are willing to pay for his production then I think it's a fair deal. Plus for a team that played in the WCF with his cap space I would do the same (maybe shorter years but that's just my preference).
Whens the next sim?
