A look at our team going into FA (With a lot of cap room):

PG Michael Carter Williams is a 23 year old 6'6 185 pound PG who is an all around play maker. He is rated 82 overall and has a lot of potential. He needs to continue to develop his outside scoring.

30 year old SF Luol Deng we got in a trade last year. He is rated 81 overall and is an all around SF who will be a veteran leader to our two young guys and will play some PF for us. This will likely be his last year with the team as he becomes a FA next year, but we will see...

SF Jeffrey Augmon fell to us at #19 because of concerns about his personality. He is rated 80 overall. He is 6'8 215 and is a "versatile offensive wing." Great athleticism and a good outside shot.

22 year old Willie Rodgers fell to us at #20 because of injuries concerns which I didn't know about because we didn't closely scout him. The guy has a lot of potential injury points. However, if he can stay healthy, he is an immediate quality starter for us who has a much better offensive game than our scouts thought. He is 6'9 250 and is rated 80 overall as a "offensive minded four."

SF Eugene Theus from Duke is 6'7 228 and is rated 78 as an "all around small forward." Our staff thinks he has higher potential than any of our other picks.

C Joel Embiid is 7'0 250 and is rated 78 overall as an "interior defender." He has excellent defensive and good rebounding ratings. He is only 21. He has the best upside on our entire team per the staff.

Nerlens Noel is 6'11 228 and is rated 76 overall as an "interior defender." He has major upside.

PF J.J. Maggette is a 6'11 244 pound PF who likes to faceup and can hit a mid range shot at times. He has concerns about his knees. He is rated 72 overall.

SF Jerami Grant is a former pick from last year who is developing nicely and is now rated 71 overall as a "two way wing." His best attribute is his athleticism.

PF Jarvis Varnado is a 27 year old PF who is mostly a rebounder at 6'9 230. He is rated 68 overall and will likely remain on the bench.

PF Brandon Davies is a 23 year old PF who is a raw prospect who won't play much unless we have injuries. He is 6'10 240. He is rated 66 overall.

PG Darin Stockton is 6'0 166 from Oklahoma Sate. He has solid athleticism and a decent outside shot. He is rated 66 overall as a "shoot first PG."


We have 33 million in FA and will be aggressive as we have our foundation to build around and don't need high picks any more (although we have traded some picks and have some potential high picks coming from other teams.)


Big name FA's:

Wow. LeBron opted out (didn't realize he could after 1 year but in this roster, he apparently can.) Still rated 98.

PG Rondo rated 87 overall.

PF Millsap rapted 85.

Monta Ellis is the highest rated SG at 83...

Jimmy Butler is a defensive SG specialist rated 81 overall...


I had LeBron on the 76ers in my 2k14 dynasty and I can't pass up offering him a max deal...

LeBron decides to take a max deal with the Hawks instead of our team. Poor Cavs jilted again. Crazy.

We do get a consolation prize as Ellis takes a 4 year 52 million dollar deal to join us.


That is the only major FA to join us. We also add C.J. Watson as a backup PG as I don't think Stocker is ready for significant minutes yet.

Post Training Camp News:

Deng has started to really show signs of losing a step. He takes a major step back.

Embiid has improved his defense and rebounding to near elite levels.


A look at our depth chart now:

PG MCW rated 82 overall now. Expected to play 30 minutes per night.
SG Monta Ellis rated 83 overall. Expected to play 30 mpg.
SF Jeffrey Augmon rated 80 overall. Expected to play 29 mpg (his personality is already demanding major minutes.)
PF Nerlens Noel is rated 79 overall expected to play 29 MPG.
C Joel Embiid is rated 81 overall expected to play 29 mpg.

SF Eugene Theus is rated 78 overall and is expected to play 28 mpg
PF Willie Rodgers is rated 80 overall and is expected to play 22 mpg (don't want to push him with his bad knees.)
SF Deng is rated 76 overall and is expected to play 18 mpg.
PG C.J. Watson is rated 74 overall and is expected to play 14 mpg.
PF Maggette is rated 72 overall and expected to play 10 mpg.


SF McDaniels is rated 72 overall and will play in garbage time.
SF Grand is rated 71 overall and will play in garbage time.
C Henry Sims is rated 71 overall and will play in garbage time.

PG Stockton is in the reserve spot for now.. He is rated 66 overall.
