    Path to Greatness

    In this one, I'll be following the lives on a few NBA Rookies. I'll post where they were drafted, tweets about them, key game stats, awards and more.
    I'll also be following the NBA.. which means power rankings, rule changes, trades, signings and more. If anyone has story lines they want included please let me know.

    I'm not super amazing at photoshop.. so if someone wants to help me out that'd be awesome

                        Damn, Milwaukee...yikes. Do we have any say in what happens with our player? That would be nice if we could like request trade, or have some sort of influence where they go in FA.

                            Well to keep it some sort of realistic, no where yet. I was just staffed lol but after a year or two there mah be somewhere I like more than being second in command to the Greek freak.
