Thanks building teams is something I’ve Always thought i specialized in.

The theme to this team is shooting, But Ja can get to the basket at will. The defense is really coming around I’m middle of the pack this year. I can throw out 3 A graded defenders in closing minutes. Lakers and Mavs are going to be tough to catch, but I’ve got a chance. I still got to find another big for my last roster spot.

JJJ Out 6-8 Weeks

Memphis got some tough news today as Jaren Jackson Jr tore his left hamstring and is expected to miss 6 to 8 weeks. Its awful timing as just yesterday we wrote about the breakthrough year he was having as the starting 5. Even though he is unable to play through the injury his overall grade only went down 5 points. That leaves the team hoping he will be able to come back sooner then the 6-8 weeks. The All Star break is about a month away.

Memphis will try something different without him and go small with Clarke as the starting 5 and T.J at the 4. This lineup will be dynamite on offense and will struggle with size and interior defense. Jonas will see increased minutes off the bench and this will help stagger him and Clarke. Kyle Anderson will get 10 minutes as the 9th man.

Jaren has been plagued by injuries he even missed some games earlier this year. This will speed up the process of Memphis looking for another big to fill out the roster. The Cavs are expected to cut Kevin Love soon as they are now out of the playoffs and he is out of the rotation.

This is a bad loss, just now that he had found his size in the new position, now Memphis lowering the quintet will find himself in trouble under the scoreboards, there is always a certain J.V.

Yea tough loss he was playing great, but I think I can survive. I have gave JV more minutes I think he is about 27 now. If Clarke fails at C then I will move JV into the starting lineup and trade for a C to come off the bench.

Is Pau Gasol still floating around in free agency? Might be a fit, and good to see him back in Memphis.

Shaq Tank

We are here to debut the person that all the teams are trying to tank to get and that is Shaquille O'Neal better known as Shaq. A massive strong bully of a man that isn't going to be shooting any 3's. The scouting process is still under way so we don't know his exact grades. He will be the best prospect we have seen the last few years. Its also to early to go in depth of the teams with the best odds to draft him. We will include 2 photos of where things stand now.

Pau has retired as I'm in season 3 now. They are some big names in the FA pool (al, aldridge, griffin), but they have all declined to the point where they wouldn't ever see the floor. The one gripe I have about my roster file I'm using is players start declining a little to fast when they get over 30.

Beal Finally Traded

In what has been rumored for about 5 years now Bradley Beal has finally been traded at the age of 29. The West has been getting a lot of press for how stacked it is well the East just got a new powerhouse. The 76ers had long been trying to get Beal, but since they are somehow one of the worst teams in the league once again. They couldn't trade for him since they are down 2 future 1st round picks.

Hawks Thoughts (29-17
They are the current 3 seed and just made a major win now move. They now have a unbelievable offensive backcourt and will team Beal up with Trae Young. They keep both Hunter and Reddish so that should be enough wing defense ( B+) to get them by. They are losing two key young pieces and draft picks while its not all the chips in the table its a lot of them. Beal is owed major $ the next 2 years.

Wizards Thoughts (18-28)
Looking back they probably waited to long to trade him and maybe didn't get as much as they could have in years past. Beal is 29 and they aren't close to winning anything with him. Their 1st round pick this year is lottery protected (westbrook trade) so this confirms they will be able to hang on to that pick. They will also be buying out Westbrook. They do get 2 quality young players both with some potential. Lineman is a 19 year old athletic 6'9 240 pound 3/4 offense prospect. Yi is a shutdown defender the best young defense player in the game (A grade) that has yet to get a lot of playing time. He struggles on offense, but could easily become the next Thybulle. The Pistons 1st round pick could end up in the late teens/ early 20's. The other 1st they get is unprotected so anything could happen with it. They also pick up three 2nd round picks with 2 of them being in this draft. They will also be armed with ton of cap space now as Beal was making about 40 million next year and this is the final year for Westbrook's contract.

Lakers Thoughts (36-11)
They had a 12 million trade exception and used that to improve the roster without having to give up anything of note. The starting C is hurt for LA the next 6 weeks so they have AD at the 5 and Lebron at the 4. Bogdan will start at the 3 and this is the final year of his contract. They can now also trade KCP to get another big. Willy was legit needed with the injury at C and will battle it out for playing with Cousins and Ibaka.


Editors note - Willy H was suppose to go to the Lakers so i fixed it after the trade was made. Instead of including the dead salary of Eric Gordon I just used that spot for a 2nd round pick and did a homemade fix.
