Im not perfect, never said I was. Ill try and bump up some of the 2nd tier guys. honestly, its more about not bringing in the curry types, even if they are steph. He coulda been a great prospect without being a 30 ppg guy right off the bat. When you have a team with someone like Melo, and then guys at pick 1 like Curry, it absolutely fucks the market, because who is gonna trade for somebody when they arent gonna win a title, better off trying to tank the shit out of the team, which means dumping talent entirely for cheap |

Yeah that was kind of the touch on day 4 and 5. Don't understand how he was still available at the time. Even before that I feel like you sign dudes for cheap and they have played solid roles for you during this run. Ron Mercer for 2M was my greatest work. After the big names are out, people aren't paying attention Yeah he was always solid for me. Plenty of solid dudes out there remaining those late days. Even in left over FA. |

Ron Mercer for 2M was my greatest work. After the big names are out, people aren't paying attention Simmons has regressed a bit with the tos to stocks but hes still one of my favorites. Yeah Simmons is nice, but last FA was ridiculous with 25 teams right at the HC so it's a little more understandable how I got him. I actually messed that up, could have signed him to a long deal. |

both players would be carrying teams with whatever players imo. We will see if they r traded How is this true when I have "whatever" players around Gil now and we aren't good? you’re 18-12? |

Braz cries too much for having a 30/10/3.5 stock SG eligible wing I don’t know why you consider that crying im just making a point. I’m not saying kill off arenes. I just think a player of his and Melo caliber can carry a team |

The 20 more points come on more shots. The question is who takes the shots and how many points I lose vs what I gain from bron's stocks and boards yeah, at a rate 11% better than Lebron. You dont see to understand just how absurd that is. But bron can play sg with a- rebounding. Better stocks. Scoring is easier to make up. Of course melo is elite. His boards will come down though at some point playing sg. If I could pick 1 to go forward with at this point I would take bron |

PERCENTAGES [1] 0.462 0.384 0.763 0.550 Lebron, 55% TS, pretty decent, but Melo, scoring 20 more ppg PERCENTAGES [1] 0.556 0.492 0.910 0.663 yeah thats just stupid The 20 more points come on more shots. The question is who takes the shots and how many points I lose vs what I gain from bron's stocks and boards Lebron didn’t keep up in shots while I was tanking either |

I was hoping more teams would value vets. I think Ive learned from the baseball league that with camps youth will always be over valued. I was trying to even the playing field. Seems like some are unhappy. I do wish I could get feedback from other Gms though. I feel like 4 or 5 unhappy Gms tend to overwhelm the perspective. The issue (part of anyways) tends to be with contracts and value overall. Love the G-League but that added more value to young guys. Why pay 20 Mil for a SG when I can wait a year, give extra camps to and hope my SG can potentially play as well while being paid nothing. It doesn't help that we're still handing out ugly ass deals. I am guilty of it too but like, why is JO making 27 Mil? it’s our fault for giving the deals out of fear for losing players |

It is part of the reason why vets don't get as much love or carry as much value. |

Also Gil of 2 seasons ago is a bit dif then now. He had a point where he was heads above others. Now he’s not that but still Top 5 |

And I know lebron is incredible. Never said he wasn’t. When I try to make points I’m not doing it as a “I have this, you have that”. I try to step back and look at the landscape as a whole.

For reference, the FEWEST points Melo has scored in a game this season is 32, twice

I feel that. Do you also think Bron can carry a whatever team? he hasn’t been able to so far. But I think he can potentially I have a damn good team around him and just lost to the Mavs and Heat in a sim. Could make a run but not the title favorite My opinion is a pg has a much easier job carrying a team. Melo does it bc 50 ppg is ridiculous. I think he’s the first wing mvp I’ve seen |
