Beer??!! It was Moët & Chandon my friend!!
But the moment was worth every peny of it  

Thanks for helping us get the division lead back 

Im german.. I know nothing else than beer, haha.
Bitburger, Flensburger, Jever, früh, Gaffel, Becks, Warsteiner, Veltins, Erdinger, Paulaner, Radeberger, Krombacher.. In germany you get to know them right after you have been born, haha..

But yeah, I know. The game was showing something different   

2-0 SIm.

First we go into Philly and beat them by 1 which is a big win. They tried to zone us heavily and Jameer made them pay for that by draining some big threes.

Then we take Brooklyn on at home and let Melo and Knight handle them to bring our record up to 6-2 for the season.

Still waiting for the Bulls to come back down to Earth but its not happening so we're gonna have to get used to seeing them perform this well.

Are you freakin KIDDING me ??

61/19 actually        

Easy to explain..
Dont know his exact numbers by Heart.. But its dwade and him + a little ilyasova in philly.. I Predict Andrews usage% is above 40% and his touches are at a PG Level around 60-70. will take a look later.
Thats why Miami and Houston are designed the same. Those teams are looking to get the Ball into their Stars hands.
A reason why Minnesota or Oklahoma wont work IMO. Loves, PGs usage are too low because of too many guys demanding the ball.
Same for Indy, wouldnt have added Nowitzki, its just stealing away usage and touches from Lebron.

He's not, actually. Nowitzki is the one not getting touches. I believe Lebron's only had one sub-30 point game so far. His touches are just fine.

Again, not speaking about points. speaking about touches and usage.

Nowitzki's usage is not too bad at 17.6...

yeah just checked myself, curious!
Still, if he wouldnt be there I believe Lebron would have a higher usage.

Do the Heat actually have a GM? Either way Monta Ellis is playing well for them but logging a lot of minutes.

I didn't even realize that Bynum went off for 61 points and 19 rebounds. What's the CSL scoring record?

I believe its Carmelo with 68 vs Utah

Damn, that's still insane. Hah hah.

yeah Bynum is now tied with KD for second all time  

Damn, Bynum is unreal for us right now. Sucks we lost to the Pistons at home, and by 1 point, but overall a pretty good sim for us with a win vs Miami. I still can't get over how good of a player Bynum is, I'm just going to have to hope that starts to equate to more wins.

That's when I realized I needed to trade him, LOL. He got shipped out to Houston soon after that   

It still remains the best scoring effort @CSL. Bynum just tied Durant for the 2nd (against Brooklyn). And LeBron holds the 3rd with 59 against the Hawks.

The file will be uploaded within the next time?

Also curious about the file

Guys - I will post the file in the next couple of hours and will delay the next sim until 12pm CST tomorrow to give everyone time to submit their .tem files.

"Thats what I wanted to see", leader and captain Gordon Hayward screamed entering the locker room!
After a devastating start into the season Bostons GM decided to switch tactics. Number 7 pick Shabazz got the start instead of Dennis Schröder, who has to rest because of a strained abdominal. Everybody played well this game, even Len, who limited Lopez to 2/5 shooting despite not putting up a stellar statline like everybody else.
Hayward is still struggling to find his shot due to double and triple teams, but he handles the ball already better and has become a great slasher. We knew with some preference works he will be just fine. Actually he's shooting above 60% inside. As soon as he stops to try 3pointers he will be damn fine.
Thats our this years gift for New York, dont expect us to win against Brooklyn again! Really everybody stepped up! Look at Micic, he played on the same level like Rondo and he just got his first start at PG. Looking at his potentials you have to be scared how good he could be in the future. Schröder has to fight to get his starting gig back as soon as he returned from injury!
Same for Shabazz.. some said he will struggle on D or with foultrouble and turnovers. So far he allows 0.7 P/SF and committs 1 turnover, 1 pf.

KeyPlayers

Gordon "Captain" Hayward 33 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block, 1 turnover
=> and Hayward even played the Point for 11 minutes against Rondo! Amazing that he turned it over only 1 time. He really improved this training camp!
Vasilije "The Kidd" Micic 10 points, 13 assists, 4 rebounds
Patric "mini Ibaka" Young 10 points, 17 rebounds, 2 blocks
Bazz "the unpredictable" Muhammad 21 points, 5 rebounds, 8/13 with 5/6 from downtown! (man this guy is great from outside!)

Congrats Dennis, very good win. I changed two men to position for try to win in Detroit. Finally, I lost in Detroit and in Boston. I hope with Delfino I will improve three points attemps.

Only win-less team. Struggling to find the right mix and single post doesn't seem to have helped much.

Anyone else still getting an outdated file... or is it just me?

Yeah. Guessing it's since Myles and Dylan haven't done the last couple of sims. Index fo' lyfe.

It's been updated, but in the first page of this thread, not in the 'League File' in the left menu

Ah, alright. Thanks Jamal. Figured the only file was on the left menu.

L: Miami Heat 126 @ 121 New York Knicks
Ricky Rubio: 27 points, 12 asists, 6 rebounds, 3 steals
JaVale McGee: 32 points, 6 rebounds, 1 block

Close game against the Heat, in which both teams won 2 quarters, and three of them ending with less than a 2 point difference.
So the third 36-29 quarter was key for Miami's win.

Durant scored 49 points on us, but that was something we were counting on. The goal was to stop the rest of the team better, specially Monta Ellis, and we came short on that one.

McGee had another pretty efficient night, scoring 32 points on 13 from 15 shooting, in just 30 minutes of action. Ricky also finished with great numbers: 27 points, 12 asists, 6 rebounds and 3 steals. But the effort wasn't enough, and the Heat managed to wet the W back to Miami.

Already looking for the next game against the champs, as we won't rest till winning or at least getting the season series even. Too much history between this two franchises, even with OP gone  


W: Oklahoma City Thunder 113 @ 128 New York Knicks
Ricky Rubio: 14 points, 17 asists, 4 steals
Kosta Koufos: 34 points, 9 rebounds, 2 steals, 2 blocks off the bench

Great effort from the Knicks, scoring no less than 128 on the Thunder.
We once again lost the first quarter, 36-27 this time, but won the next three.

Most people thought this summer that we were going to have scoring problems this season. I wasn't lying when I assured scoring was the least of my problems with this team, and this game and the 112.7ppg (5th overall) this season proves I was right not worrying about it.

Back to the game, Rubio once again orchestrated the offense for us, dishing out 17 asists while only turning the ball twice. Meanwhile he also had 4 steals, that added to the 20 in total for the Knicks, and were translated into easy baskets for our team (46 fast break points for the Knicks). In fact the 34 TOs by the Thunder (7 by Lowry, 9 by Brewer, 5 by Davis, 4 by George and so on till 34) were key in our win.

Finally we need to mention Koufos' big game, with 34 points off the bench on a 15 from 23 shooting night. The Thunder were meant to have advantage at the center position with Dwight and Hibbert, but they both combined for just 17 points, (same as Mcgee alone, although he just played 25 minutes because of foul trouble) while Kosta scored easily on them.
