Notes:
Trades

SAC trades Ty Lawson and Jodie Meeks to ATL for Kyle Lowry, Amir Johnson, MarShon Brooks and 2017 BKN 1st (top-7 protected).

Minnesota Timberwolves, 123 @ Sacramento Kings, 108

Pretty pleasantly surprised by this win, didn't honestly expect to pull it out the way Sacramento has been playing recently, but the team played awesome all around, shooting 50% from the field and getting to the line 38 times. Jeremy Lin dominated the game, shooting 9 of 13 for 26 points with 4 rebounds and 3 assists. Andrew Bogut had a season high 21 points, but failed to grab many rebounds with the rebounding monster that is Kevin Love hogging them all.

Chris Copeland played pretty well also in his 2nd game as a Timberwolf putting up a near double double. Parsons was in foul trouble most of the game, so he didn't get many minutes, but still had a decent all around game with 4 points, 4 assists, and 3 rebounds.

Next up, we play the Philadelphia 76ers after beating them last week.

Sorry, was the only time I was going to be home and have access to the game long enough to sim.

No worries man, you're doing a great job. I would prefer an early sim than a late one lol

At least Plumlee is healthy. We'll see what he can bring.

After two sims resting we return to the court tomorrow to face the Denver Nuggets. Tough game for sure but we're confident we can win this one.

Lost to Portland, just could not stop Damian or Aldridge at all. Teague and DeRozan are showing to be a good scoring punch so far. We'll get a win soon I hope.

Was hoping the Hawks would sit Lowry and Amir due to trade to give us a shot at stealing one, but no go. Darrell Arthur's accuracy off the bench has been ridiculous though. I think he's only missed one shot in each of his first two major minutes games.

Man we got worked over by the new-look Bucks to kick off our road trip. 111-120 on their court. 1st quarter did us in, as we lost 37-15. Faried & Vucevic were huge.

Lost against Chicago at home.

Pau had a nice game (32/11)
Beal played decently (13/7/7)

CJ Watson defensively is losing us games while Westbrook is out. Rose went completely HAM (30/11/7) on 11-19 shooting.

Magic now…

11-32

We lose a heartbreaker on the road in Charlotte.

Orlando 111 @ Charlotte 112

Giannis continues to impress with 21 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 blocks. Noel has a double double with 14 points, 10 rebounds and 4 blocks. We get killed with turnovers, 24 to 15 for Charlotte and they go to the line 49 times!

One more game before we roll into February.

Next up…Detroit comes to Orlando.

W vs. PHX

Former Hawk McGary struggled with Cousins who had 23/22/2 w/ 2 stls & 4 blks and our team defense held them to 72 points. Porter had a solid game though and PHX has a bright future.

Next up is DET and an epic battle of the front courts.

We blow out Boston by 45 points! Kyrie and Gordon combined for 60 pts. Ryan had a double double. Evan Turner comes down with 15 boards!

solid 118-101 win against San Antonio, headlined by another 50-point game by Lebron.

Shooting numbers were quite similar from the field, but this team always does a great job drawing fouls, especially Lebron, and that was the difference in the game.

2-0 road sim against good teams.

132 - 109 Win against the Lakers. Looks like Westbrook broke his leg. Rose had 30 points 11 assists and 7 boards. The whole team played well and was attacking the rim. The lowest scoring total for a starter was Tony Allen with 18.

109 - 95 Win over the Nuggets. Rose and JJ combined for 50. As a team we got 24 more shot attempts than Denver.

Rockets 90 Pistons 105


Former Rocket SF Carmelo Anthony finishes with authority

The Houston Rockets, riding high off of their 89-79 home victory over Denver flew into Detroit taking on the 32 win Pistons falling to the team with the 2nd best record in the entire CSL by 15. It was former Rocket Carmelo Anthony doing the scoring damage for the Pistons, pouring in 37pts on 10-15 from the field including 3-6 from downtown and 14-14 from the charity stripe.

The story however of the night for Houston was F Danilo Gallinari who has been playing well for us leaves the game with a sprained ankle and will miss 12 days.

Next up Chris Kaman makes his Rockets debut as we take on LeBron James and the Indiana Pacers.

Why the hell WB is still playing? Why don't you just sit him and wait till him recovers?

Win vs Dal - 104-133

Lillard and Aldridge combined for 80 points. We grabbed 20 more rebounds and shot 55% from the field and 95% from free throw line

No games for us this sim.
Great to get Budinger back healthy   

Beat the banged-up Rockets on our court by 15 behind a big game from Melo. The rest of our team had a pretty underwhelming showing but enough to get the win.

Win vs Raptors. Good play in backcourt, Curry 10/18 from the field. I don't understand well Toronto's minutes distribution
