Omg please yes, I would love to do this. Fantastic idea you glorious mother sons of guns.

Clippers
Suns
Bulls

No order of preference. Give me one of those 3 and I’m happy.

Okay pref not the Bulls though... I’ll take PHX or LAC. Do it, do it!

Clippers are yours!

So did I get philly?

Yes, unless you want to change it to one of your other open teams?

 

[hoopsjock]

If we get to 15 people in this we can just each have 2 teams. The only issue with that is we'll probably have to have a rule where you can't trade between your two teams.

I don't hate Philly like I do the Lakers and Houston, so Philly it is

It'd be easier and more fun to do 15bpeople with two teams each, IMO.

Hey everyone,
@BonesJones and I were wondering if there is any interest in doing a mock off season for fun. This can be a really enjoyable experience but it does help if people are active in it. Here's how it would work:

Everyone playing would be assigned a team (or two if we only have 15 teams) and you'd be the GM of your team with complete control over any transactions. We'd then set a date for our fake NBA Draft. Before and during the draft you would be allowed to make as many trades as you want as long as they work under the CBA. You take on your team's exact roster, draft picks, etc. If it goes well we could even find a way to do a fake free agency.

As long as you are active and participate in it this type of thing is a lot of fun. It doesn't really matter how well you do as long as you are trying and don't just vanish so we have dormant teams. At the end we can compare rosters and see how everyone did and even revisit it at different points of the season or run 2K simulations to see what teams would win.

If you want to try it all you have to do is respond and put your top 3 choices in teams and I will decide who gets what team. @Gronk Brady or @LayneStaley I'll even give one of you two a shot at being the Blazers if you want them. Go ahead and tag other people if you think they'd enjoy it. Do we have enough wannabe GM's out there?

@TBpup I wanted to include you too if you want to play since you had discussed it with Bones.

Define complete control of transactions.
As that sounds like you could force a trade if the $$ matches.

Wait if I pick the Spurs I could trade Aldridge to the Euro league. Oh man.

You could waive Aldridge, yes, but his whole contract would be on the books still moving forward so you'd be fired immediately. You can't force other teams to make trades but you can make as many trades as you want under the rules of the CBA.

 

[hoopsjock]

Yes

Blazers
Bucks
Jazz
Knicks

I gave you the Bucks for now and will put you in the running for the Blazers. We need 6 more people to make 15. Can anyone invite someone else?

@Superbeard Do you want to participate as the Rockets?

 

[hoopsjock]

@SlyPokerDog Do you have any interest in this or do you know people who would want to join?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Awesome, you seem to understand the cap so you should be great at this.

All right. The Carolina fire sale is officially ON!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

I hate this for you guys Miami’s gonna win the 2k nba19 nba championship. Lol

You would be the best GM in NBA history if you pulled that off.

Lol I’m sure we’ll find out there’s a reason none of the NBA teams have called lol

In the Sacramento Forum one I'm doing the Heat guy is making really weird moves. I did the trade with him of Turner and #24 for Winslow and Olynyk. Now he is about to make a trade for DeRozan with Dragic, Richardson, James Johnson, and pick(s) going to them. So he's going to be left with basically DeRozan, Turner, Whiteside, Adebayo, Waiters, and Tyler Johnson with Ellington and Wade as free agents. If Ellington leaves in free agency their shooting is sooooo bad.

My strategy is convince the warriors to do a roster swap... Actually I do have some ideas, but that’s probably the best one lol

People can do what they want but I really hope that people take things realistically. Like the Warriors wouldn't trade Curry and the Bucks wouldn't trade Greek Freak and so on.

I have ways in the trade machine to turn whiteside into the #1 but I don’t think their very realistic. It sucks that I don’t have a 1st rounder, cause Phoenix already has it lol

I would be open to doing the draft for the Blazers(of course), but since i'm in Denver , I would be open to picking for the Nuggets. I listen a lot to 950 AM which has Nuggets personnel , and host on all the time. Bad news is I don't have a twitter account so maybe that excludes my chance.

Oh is a twitter account mandatory? I don’t have one either, I could make one I guess...

I don't know what the twitter stuff was about. I don't have twitter either and that isn't required. I'll put you down for the Nuggets and in the running for Blazers.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

@SlyPokerDog Do you have any interest in this or do you know people who would want to join?

I'll sit this one out.

But thanks for asking!

No, to tag people's teams in the original post I used the @ sign and @SlyPokerDog confused things talking to Mediocre Man about it.
