I agree with Ty-Land these are trades/moves the Bucks would never do. They would never trade there first overall pick and solid center Andrew Bogut for Tyson Chandler who has never averaged 10+ppg in his life. I know you say it was for rebounding but you could have gotten better for Bogut. Also in that Yi trade you got rid of 2 established good NBA players in Simmons and Mason, for one decent shot blocker and two young guys who haven't done anything really in the league yet. Well it should be intersting to see what your going to do with the rest of the team. I guess I'll say goodbye to Michael Redd already cause I can imagine you trading him too.

No, I'm not. Why else the dynasty is called Redd-Hot?

Definitely got a lot younger with these trades. Green and Brewer are lanky and quick, so they're pretty servicable shooters in game. Too bad I'm a Mason and Simmons fan though, I just hope you don't get burned on defence because Green and Brewer (not high on him defensively as a lot of people are) are inexperienced and are basically a downgrade from Simmons and Mason defensively.

As much as I like Tyson Chandler and Butler, I would've kept Bogut as well. Chandler's a beast on defence and the boards, but Bogut isn't necessarily a slouch in that department either. Bogut also has that underrated post passing skill. I've always felt Bogut to be more of a franchise player than Chandler, plus he makes less money.

Oh well, if your trades give you results in-game I guess it doesn't really matter anyway.

Guys, what template should i use?

a) My current one? ( Can see on page 2.)
b) My Wizards Playoffs one. (Daily leaders etc..)
c) A Website template? (Like Buzzy's, Jing's and Looser's.)

A website template is pretty easy on the eyes, but its been done before. If you can pull off something creative with it I think it'd be a great thing to do.

Voskuhl waived, Fortson signed...

The Bucks waived C Jake Voskuhl today and signed a multi-year deal with
Danny Fortson. To due teams policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"An excellent rebounder... Tough defender down low... Almost impossible
to move once he gets the position..."

Harris : "We need a good big men to give us depth. Fortson is just a man to do it."

Very great move, Fortson(imo) is one of the most underrated players in the NBA, if he gets enough minutes, his contribution can be very useful...

Bucks waive Theo Ratliff, finalize deal with FA Fortson....

The Bucks waived Theo Ratliff and his 11M dollar contract to finalize the contract with Danny Fortson..
Fortson will earn 2.9M dollars a year and the contract will be a 4 year deal. This will bring the Bucks under the Cap and probably
the Bucks could afford to sign another FA. A veteran probably...

4 years? pretty long commitment; i liked Fortson when he was on GSW but he slowly gained a rep for being a dirty player after he was traded; hope he cleans up his act and dominates for your Bucks

I'm with BoomDizzle, I'm not a huge fan of Fortson, but he was a monster rebounder a few years ago I think.

Well, I'm not looking for a "beast" off the bench. I have Chandler. (94 Off Reb, 92 Def Reb. Or the other way..) at start.. Bogut was 78,78..

I'll have my 1st game up by Monday or later on tuesday. I already have a decent template. (Credits to Buzzy!)

And thanks, I made the template :mrgreen:

Anyway, nice you finally started this one, km. Too bad the cpu played sucky for you and you already have a 1-2 record. I think you should play against your former dynasty - the Wizards. Expecting a shooting duel between Redd and Gil.

Damn... 44 fourth quarter points, that's pretty suprising even if the CPU was cheating.

I'm glad to see Charlie V play so well; he's been a favourite of mine since he was a Raptor and I'm still rooting for him in Milwaukee.

Thanks for the feedback.. And that poll isn't down there for nothing..
Like buzzy, vote for the game you think should be played.. I may play some other games for my fun, but also I'll simulate some..
