I had a pf the the same height and he couldn't get any boards. I average 10 a game with my center who's an inch shorter. However, i still feel like the game decides when they want me to get rebound or not depending on whether they want to hit every shot or not. I went all the way till the last 5 minutes because every time down they either scored or got fouled just about.

I'm glad I didn't sign with OKC because the CPU started Westbrook-MarShon Brooks over Collison/Westbrook & that woulda pissed me off. Even though the Clippers are my IRL rival, they looked so stacked. But comparing Mavs to Clips, it was basically either CP3/Blake or Lebron/D12.. had to go with Mavs since I wanted to be there too & didnt wanna leave the team I just won a chip with. One thing that made me really mad though, is even though Dirk announced in the beginning of the 15-16 season he was retiring at seasons end, and we let him ride out with a 2nd chip, the game decided he wasn't ready to lace them up and signed a 2 year (2nd year PO) with the ROCKETS. So we basically swapped Dirk for D12 :3 So much for Dirk being a lifer..

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa WHOA. Been away for awhile but are you saying you got to free agency? Did the actually patch it in? Or are you talking about last gen or something?

So I got drafted to the Jazz and started out with some extra playing time after one of my teammates got hurt. We're a few games into the season and coach puts me in, I led the team to a 88-85 lead over the Toronto Raptors by the end of the third quarter and dropped 36 points and had an A- teammate grade, so what does coach do? Benches me the entire fourth quarter and we lose 109-115.
THANKS COACH.

Got traded to the Bulls perfectly just few games before they put me in the starting lineup replacing Butler. Yes i did that trade method a bit early because i saw the Bulls are on the top of the interest list. It's all perfect but this team is playing like crap. Scored 30+ point for three straight games (Diff: Legendary) and the team still looses. Nobody even attempts a 3 pointer, rose specially. Only butler does but i replaced him and he is the sixth man. Frustrating start but let's see.

I average just over 12 a game with my PF and 7 with my C.

Up 2 games to 1 and busy the last week.. I finally got a chance to play game 4 in the West finals vs OKC.. and we (TWolves) are down 68-67 at the half.. who would think Durant would only have 13 at the half after averaging 40+ in the first 3 games..

This game Westbrook is completely unstoppable .. 18 first half points ALL on layups.. drives by everyone.. I can't block his shot.. Pekovic can't block his shot.. the game physics just push us out of the way once he's in the air. The same thing with Lamb in this game, he can't be stopped.

OKC shot 32 of 46 in the first half, and 44 of 68 points are in the paint. Fully expect Durant to score 30 points in the second half and continue the playoff stretch against ME of 40+.. can't imagine a scenario where I come out of the game up 3 games to 1 in the series even down just 1 at the half.

OK.. so 3rd quarter nearing an end and TWolves are on fire.. that 1 point deficit is now a 21 point lead.. I don't get 2K at all sometimes.. we've hit 7 of 8 three-pointers and 17 of 21 from the field overall to 10 of 21 overall for OKC with 0 3's.. in this whole rookie year SF with TWolves we haven't had a quarter like this in ANY game I can remember.

Just wrapped-up my first season. We lost to the Thunder in the Finals 4-2. In two of the four losses we lost by 1 and 4 points. A little frustrating since I averaged 41 PPG, 14 APG, 7 RPG, 4 SPG, and 1.5 BPG with my player, but the 76ers roster just wasn't ready to compete. We lost by 18 and 24 in the other two losses and our two wins came by just 3 and 7 points.

However, the front-office did manage to sign Carmelo in the off-season so no we've got a pretty tight starting lineup:

PG Michael Carter-Williams | 84 OVR
SG Malik Bridges (me) | 91 OVR
SF Carmelo Anthony | 91 OVR
PF Thaddeus Young | 84 OVR
C Nerlens Noel | 78 OVR

Noel had a great rookie year last season, averaging 18.8 PPG, 7.8 RPG, and 1.4 BPG on 68% shooting. Our bench still sucks, though. Looked at the rotations, and my two highest bench players are Omer Asik (73 OVR) and Jason Richardon. But, for whatever reasons, the coach has Asik splitting 14 MPG at center with Henrik Sims -- both players are slotted to get 7 MPG. Richardson is our 11th man for some dumb reason at just 5 MPG.

After lots of frustration with the Timberwolves on my PG, I decided not to wait for the trade... and instead decided to spend my stockpiled 120k VC to create an athletic SF. Turns out 120k VC isn't enough to max out an SF off the bat :P I think 135k would probably be a safe number if anyone is planning on trying it out.

Smashed the rookie showcase as expected, and got drafted 4th by the Bobcats. Decided to give the finger to the luggage handler guy, and haven't got to the clown nose bit, but the finger is going right there too.
