    Would you mind posting the link to the site again...it is bookmarked on my real computer, but...well, you know the sob story. Any day now I will be back to normal.

    Thanks.

    I believe everything's updated now, sorry for any inconvenience, I had to download a new ftp upload program and I had to run 3 before I found one that didn't completely blow.

    I think everything's up now though...

    BGM,

    There are still errors with the site because Hughes and Garrity suck more than they should. :)

    Wow, my defense sure did get good.

    Hehe, me and rimmy both owning our divisions.

    Can we start the playoffs now? :p

    Hughes stats will go up. I think I saw him averaging somewhere around 12, 6 and 6 as a starter last year. Outlaw started out badly for me last year too, but really boosted up his stats as the season progressed. My bench players seem to not want to shoot the ball, but at least they play d.

    3-20! Yes! Everything is going according to plan.

    Those three wins are worrying me, though.

    I'm right behind you for the quest of balls.

    My Pissed-ons are 5-16. How the hell is your team so bad? On paper it looks decent, and better than mine.

    Just simmed, updating now...

    We've reached a new month so either e-mail me your offers to the Sonics or Cavs or try to catch me in the chatroom or whatever.

    Just e-mail me through the BBS...

    Also a bit of a shocker, Jason Williams claims ROM over Wootten...

    Steve Francis takes POM...

    OK, seriously...this is getting a little silly:

    Shareef: 16 ppg
    Hughes: 8 ppg

    I still want to know why the game reduced the abilities for a player that is only 25.

    Hey BGM.. I don't understand it.

    Why are the Kings so godawfully <b>bad</b> in this sim?

    They stunk last season with Peja and they stink again this season with Walker.

    Am I playing with the wrong offense/defense/pace or something?

    7-23? A .233 winning percentage? What is going on? I need that percentage down to .150.

    Is Full-Season tanking allowed? I tried not necessarily tanking last year, but about a month before the playoffs I benched some of my starters and a couple people spoke out on it...

    It prob is the offense/defense/pace.

    I own the game, and it does make a big difference. Try and get BGM to put at auto default for that.

    Simmed and am now updating...

    Rimmy,
    I'm not sure what happened to SAR, at least Terry's kicking ass...maybe SAR will re-improve next year.

    Fade,
    When I auto your settings this is what I have...(the settings you wanted are in parantheses)

    Pace: Slow (normal)
    Trap: Often (sometimes)
    Press: Often (sometimes)
    Offense: Inside (balanced)

    So maybe that's the problem, a team with Walker, Webber, and Divac should probably try to go "Rockets Championship Years" style...(slow and inside)

    Also, I am allowing tanking duke, I've decided to change my stance on this.

    Honestly, it will probably hurt ZRB more than it will help him since most of the time the team with the most balls doesn't end up with the #1 pick.

    He'll also alienate his players and make them not want to play for him. He probably won't sign any big name FA's either if he's going to be a loser. The only reason the Jazz signed Lafrentz was because they had the high offer. Now that teams are freeing up capspace there will be more competitive bids and no FA's are going to want to go to a team that's awful.
