That's usually my spot I'll have to pull my finger out.I’m a passenger waiting to be carried to a championship.

Free Agency Trade Window
@hobbers (BOS), @Dan & @The Cat (DET)
@altodevil (LAL) - why?
@Salt Bailly (DEN > TOR), @reelworld (DEN) - the Salt Bailly retirement tour continues.
@Stobzilla (SAS > NOL) - seems fair?
@sebsheep (MIA) - this is Chicago going all-in.
@Skizzo (IND) - someone in Oklahoma is really sure New York are going to be crap in 2014.
@reelworld (ORL > OKC) - and just like that there were no Cafites left in Orlando. This was too much to take for reelworld, so he immediately retired. His son, reelworld II promptly signed for the Denver Nuggets.
I haven't won anything and I'm enjoying it. In fact I think I'd be more bored if I was constantly winning. Its the getting nearer each season that keeps me coming back. Or at least that's what I tell myself.I'm curious. Do those of you who aren't as successful as some in this experiment get anything out of it, or is it just "oh, another alert from nimic"? It's a potential weakness of this compared to something like an FM experiment, where you can basically guarantee that someone will be world-beaters through the potential ability rating. I wouldn't want this only to be interesting for Solius, altodevil and hobbers (and The Cat and weetee, champions that they are).
Oh, and the hammer.
Yea. Imagine alto, has to retire at some point and when the successor hits only 64 max potential playing back-up for the bobcats it‘ll taint his whole legacy. Guess he’ll‘ just leave altogether (and keeps lurking incognito..)I haven't won anything and I'm enjoying it. In fact I think I'd be more bored if I was constantly winning.

Acceptance is the most important step.We're actually quite good.
We're actually quite good because Derrick Rose is replacing me and is already better than I ever was.
Rust.How am I declining?
You're nearly 30, you're practically dead.How am I declining?
Am I going through a divorce right now? Performance dropped like a rock.
2-time NBA Champion weetee is still in Atlanta, though he's in his last year with the team. Judging by that ">99%", he's absolutely loving it there, so I wouldn't expect him to go anywhere else. Things might change quickly if Atlanta don't make the playoffs, though.
You've probably been the most unlucky as far as that goes, maybe together with sebsheep. You have a full season to think about the build for next season@nimic i think an early retirement might not be a bad idea after all. Was hoping for a late resurgence, but I never had much promise to begin with
I’ll get that over to you in time for the start of my new MVP reign.You've probably been the most unlucky as far as that goes, maybe together with sebsheep. You have a full season to think about the build for next season
P-Nut left - but he went to the Kings and now they're bad too?What happened to the Grizz
Oh my god10/11 25-Game Update
Just one relevant trade
Standings
I left. Wanted to stay there it was going well.Why the feck have the Grizzlies fallen apart so badly?
That's gorgeous and explains the Grizz trade
The importance of team construction.
