Boston's Battle for Banner 18 (and Beyond)

Damn, the photos are fantastic. They definitely look that much more impressive to me considering I’m still grabbing screenshots from College Hoops 2k8 lol.

What is Jayson Tatum’s overall rating now? He’s got to be up there going into his 3rd season I would imagine. And those stat lines from Embiid and Simmons were pretty damn impressive.

How are you liking Edwards so far? Does he make you miss Rozier, fine with him being gone, or too early to tell?

Also, what sliders are you using?

Last gen games still look pretty good but this gen really took things to the next level. Video game wise, seeing NCAA games make a return to video games is my #1 wish but sadly I think we need a damn genie in a bottle at this point.

Tatum is rated 88. Him and Kyrie are definitely 1a and 2b for me. I ain't about this spread it around and get everyone involved. I'm about feeding my main two guys, then going to whoever's hot or whoever's open.

Philly's Big Three is tough and it doesn't help that they're surrounded by shooters. I think that they're even better this year.

I guess I would go with too early to tell but I'm leaning towards not missed. Technically Smart is my backup PG so Rozier being gone just meant sliding Smart to PG and giving Brown more minutes.

My third PG usually only gets about 8 minutes a game so it's really to small of a small size to tell. I let Edwards play the first three games and had no real complaints. However, I decided to give Neto a shot for a couple of games and he got on a hot streak so he's been playing the 3rd PG spit ever since.

Here are their Per 36 stats
Neto - 10.7 PPG, 10.1 APG, 1.3 RPG, 1.3 SPG, .600 FG%, .000 3PT% (0-3). He's played a total of 57 minutes this season
Edwards - 12.4 PPG, 10.1 APG, 2.3 RPG, 1.1 APG, .417 FG%, .250 3PT% (1-4). He's played a total of 32 minutes

Rozier has been playing well for Memphis Per 36 - 23.6 PPG, 5.6 APG, 4.8 RPG, 1.3 SPG, .507 FG& and .366 3PT% and leading them to a 4-2 start. However, he just went down with a Pulled Calf Muscle and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks.

I'm using my own personal sliders. They're probably an easier version of schnaidt1 but with Real Shooting %

My god Zion is an animal, huh? Seems like a rest start to the season though. How is Robert Williams playing for you?

Zion and Randle were both unstoppable. The Pels are also tough on D with Jrue, Frank and Stanley Johnson. There still a player or two away but I really like their young core (+ Jrue).


The Time Lord/Lob Williams is actually playing really well for me. He has surpassed Baynes as Horford's primary backup but still only gets 16-20 minutes per game because Baynes still see's minutes as well. He's basically just like a young Clint Capela. He's deadly on the pick and rolls, is a great rebounder and shot blocker but can't hit anything outside of a layup... with that said he's so good with down low on layups, dunks and put-backs that I'm sure he has the highest shooting % on the team and a fairly high PER as well. I'm not sure if he'll ever be starter material but he should be a solid backup for years to come.
