I think I do... but... we'll see =p.
I'm the only one that has 2 "can't-argue" superstars. (meaning, a pair of top 5 players). Lyion and Silv come the closest in that category with a pair of top 15 players each. Roty probably has two 15s... shrug... I think the league is really balanced.

With a healthy Kidd...I think I got it too. Kidd and McGrady...

Possibly... top 15 yeah... with a perfectly healthy Kidd. Probably every team can claim a pair of top 15s, depending on the list... but I'm the only one with a pair of guaranteed top 5s.

No I only have Pierce as a top 15.
But Im still comfortable with what I have.

Better cross your fingers one of them doesn't get hurt.

Dirk is durable as hell though... he's missed 12 games over his 6 seasons.

I will likely be one of the top in scoring and rebounding, but I will be very low in steals and assists. I think all my players are great but I just dont have the PGs to keep up with guard heavy teams like Lyions.

I'd take a chance on Murphy Lyion but all I can offer you is VanExel and you dont need more guards.
But I wouldnt be too worried. He might be a health risk, but if he stays healthy he could be 15pts 10rebounds easy.

I can only hope..that the sleepers on my team perform. ie. Gooden, Arroyo, Daniels.. Not much to bank on. :|

Gooden and Arroyo are gonna be great Rotj, I've already made a play for both so you know I like em.

I'm still not convinced about my team. I know I'm good at PG and SF, but C is only adequate, and SG and PF are godawful.

Eddie Jones could be your savior Arlos!

True, Xaiv, but I am REALLY balking at the idea of giving up my only decent center for him, especially given Jones' preseason performace.

Thats a decent deal I gave you, Rza. Better than trying to trade me a benched Robinson. :p

People...
people...
Trades have to make sense.
I just veto'd three trades that clearly benefited THEM, but did nothing for me. When you propose a trade, try to think like the receiving party. Why would Vonk want to make this trade? Does it make his team better? What if my team looked like his, would I want to give up Mobley for another center? Would I want to trade away Dirk for a lesser forward? (not you, Zan... that was funny). I feel bad for constantly knocking down trades, even though I've been the most active on my own trades... but... what the hell are some of you thinking?

Trying to pawn Stackhouse off on me is a slap in the face sir.

Finley for Zydrunas was a good deal. Clearly, we know that Finley will have a better year than Mobley.

Pawn off? I do not think so. You only have one decent guard, Johnson. With Stack you would have two.

Stackhouse is not decent
