Bobcats Trade:

Dennis Rodman
Mookie Blaylock
Brad Daughtery

I agree. No idea what possessed me to do this, but what the hell.

I'm of the belief that with the league as bad as it is, depth and defense will be able to win you a lot of games without having a big time stud as long as the team has an identity.

Daughtery-Oakley-Rodman-Dumars-Mookie with a nice bench is still a very nice lineup and we should have no problem getting to 60 with our start.

We add 5-6 years on our team by this and i'm stubborn enough to think we can still win a title despite not having a "star." We have the 2 best rebounders in the league, the best defensive team in the league by far now and we should have enough scoring.

We'll be able to matchup with anyone in the playoffs with this defense.

This sucks for me, but whatever. I got scared about sucking in 5 years and we're now starting a 23 yr old-27 yr old-29 yr old-26 yr old-25 yr old.

[Pig]

Agreed.

[Skillz]

I suck, LOLZ.

No one wanted Isiah though because of his TO's. Bird is 33 and i was starting to get nervous. This team will be good for a long time now, i just hope i didn't sacrifice a title.

[Pig]

Plan on rebuilding after two years so I don't mind this.

[Pig]

DOMINIQUE AND BIRD!!!!!!

Nice for Skillz to get a solid couple of young players but damn Pigs team is nasty lolz. I don't see skillz's team having a shot at the title anymore at all but who knows.

[Mark]

i wish i had those knicks picks

[Skillz]

They just got worse. My whole starting lineup is young.

[nova]

Nasty for Pig, damn.

true but you traded them all away for a shot at the title and this kills that (for now until these guys develop) IMO since your top scorer is putting up 16ppg.

Yeah, this is what I was thinking. I think you should have just stuck with the plan. I'd be really surprised if you can still win this, especially since you just made Pig's team better than yours. Now you kind of locked yourself into a great core by current standards but soon to be eh core in like 4 years, but don't have your picks for upwards of 40 seasons!

[Mark]

skillz you can fix the whole situation with kendall gill imo

[Haberino]

fucking love this

[Haberino]

Skillz is gonna be like, "LMAO, I got younger," and I'm gonna be like, "Yup, and your team fucking sucks."

[Skillz]

I don't think people recognize how bad the league is. Look at the teams that are winning, they aren't any good.

We're probably the deepest team in the league, best defensive team, and best rebounding team. Our scoring looks iffy but guys with B- B+ ratings are averaging 25 for teams. We should have good balanced scoring.

I've been wrong before, we'll see. I think i'm right here though.
