I thought the Suns would have passed us. Prior to the last few games, we were like 4-8 or something over our last 12 games.

They might, this is only through February, so one more week and March will be out. Will be interesting to see if there are changes. I think you had enough of a cushion to withstand your poor February, will be interested to see the changes from March.

Complaining? Huh? The reason I said mediocre sim/team wasn't meant because I think we are mediocre, that had a different reason. I think some people get why I said that. That comment was more about readin between the lines.

And no, matty is in the top 5 or top 3. But not the largest rip off. But you can't know as you are new and haven't been around when the other rip offs happened. The Blake trade was the biggest rip off the last two seasons though. Together with Lin for afflalo and ola for DeRozan ithink

Good job. Being 6th or 7th doesn't really make a big difference for us, though, as it's all about matchups. We match up better with Detroit than we do with Toronto or Chicago.

Cool article.

We go from 9 to 6 after a good February month (9-3). Currently 8-1 in March, we might climb one spot => Phoenix being also 8-1, I am looking at you bt ;)

Anderson has been averaging 15ppg for me in only his 2nd year. I drop him 10lbs next season, I will have a sf who can defend and shoot the ball. He's only going to get better. On paper it looks like a bad trade from my part, but let's wait a few seasons to find out the truth.

13. Orlando Magic [5] (.225) I wonder if Orlando regrets that Cousins trade now? Outside of their top 2, I am not sure if there is a less talented team 3-12 then the Magic. Maybe OKC but thats pushing it.
:lol: Who would regret trading for the top C in the League? :lol:

I thought we'd be further down the power rankings honestly, that said I'd venture to say we'd win this division if George doesn't break his elbow. We'll be alright though.

That "top" center has never made the playoffs. Guaranteed your team would be better had you not made that trade

We've played really well since the all-star break. White probably deserves some of the credit, as he's been great for us. McCollum has been a huge help as well. Pretty underrated guy. Honestly though, I think most of it has to do with that we're finally healthy. We really struggled with that the entire first half the season.

I don't see how you can say the second KD trade (Smart + SJJ + Pekovic + '20 HOU 1sts for KD) is worse than these other trades. Did the Spurs get full value for KD? Probably not since it's nearly impossible to do so for a player like KD. But they did alright for themselves, which none of the other teams that traded away the stars on this list can say.
