I am currently 13-0 by the skin of my teeth. I had to come from behind with 2 minutes left to beat the SPURS at home in a nail biter. I also trailed the Lakers in the second half but eventually took the game over with about 6 min to play.
After these games I decided to change things up. For whatever reason Gay started out in game 1 being THE MAN and was named MVP. Since that game he has been pretty useless from outside of a DUNK range! I don't know what his problem is but I have had it. I have figured out how to use Durant and he is now my main scoring machine, he is flat awesome and playing to his rating finally. Curry is the engine that makes everything go with his precision passing and his sharp shooting. So I decided to deal Gay away.
Traded Gay for Ray Allen and O'Neal. Then I moved O'Neal to Cavs for Gooden and next year's first round pick. I then moved Udoh, Battier and the Cav's future #1 for Wallace. So after all the dust was settled my team Lost: (Gay - Udoh - Battier)to pick up: (Allen - Wallace - Gooden)
Even though the game doesn't rate me higher I believe it makes my team better. Since Gay couldn't shoot for crap, Allen & Wallace combined more then fill in Gay's offense and Wallace is the man on defense. Will probably take me a game or 2 to figure out the rotation and get settled but I have the Cavs and someone else at home is who pretty poor to do just that.
I am loving this game. The game against the SPURS where I trailed the entire game and even had my home crowd booing me was an awesome feeling when I came back. I can't wait to play some more with my new weapons.
