Boston Celtics Franchise

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

hey guys, i've been doing a boston celtics franchise. I simmed the season till sometime in January and my record was 21 - 27. So I decided to make some trades. First i wanted to move Ricky Davis, and I was fortunate enough to trade him to Atlanta for Shareef Abdur Rahim. I also wanted to move vin baker ... so i negotiated with indiana to trade for reggie miller. After many tries, i was finally able to trade vin baker and jiri welsh for reggie. And now boston is a contender. They went on a 13 game winning streak since the trades. I dont actually "play" with boston. I just watch the computer play on 9 minute quarters. And its actually pretty fun ... especially if u have a superstar caliber player like paul pierce. He delivers when the team needs him, especially in crunch time. Right now, our record stands at 43 - 32; which is a major improvement. We havent been able to beat new york though ... the scores are always close ... and somehow they always make the last second shot. I guess that's the rivalry of the league right now.

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

i decided to sim the rest of the season. i wanted to see how the celts would do. they finished the season 46 - 36. the team cooled down after the hot 13 game win streak. we were seeded 4th in the east. kobe bryant won mvp honors, lebron was rookie of the year, and ben wallace was defensive player. paul pierce was selected to all nba first team as a SF (i moved pierce to SF and started reggie at SG). In the first round, we were up against atlanta which was quite a coincidence and also at the same time an unexpected matchup. ricky davis and jason terry had carried that team to the playoffs. so the trade worked out to both of our advantages. the playoff series was great ... it went to a game 7. but boston won the final game by 15 points. then we were off to the second round against toronto. however, we were no match for the number 1 seed in the east. jalen rose (not VC) was their best player so far in the playoffs as they swept the celts from the playoffs. and surprisingly, the raps went on to beat dallas in 6 games for the championship. Jalen Rose was the mvp ... averaged 27 ppg and 7 apg. (he was their PG).

And so the offseason began. It began in a bad note ... reggie miller retired. and paul pierce was dissappointed in the locker room as reggie walked away. so i had to fill a void at the SG position.

I decided to trade Lafrentz for a lottery pick SG in the draft. So I resigned Chris Mihm to a 5 year contract. He improved a lot and he would be a lot better than lafrentz at the center position. In the draft lottery, i got the 23rd pick ... milwakee got 1, chicago 2, washington 3, utah 4 ..... all of the top 3 lottery teams chose a SG in the draft (which was projected to be strong). I decided to pick a center with my pick. He was a seven feet tall and about 280 lbs. I thought he could really help my team in the future so i got him. So once the draft ended, i was glad i resigned my players because the best player available in the free agent market was Stromile Swift! i was able to sign voshon lenard as a free agent for a minimum contract (i was surprised he wanted a minimum).

Then i started shopping lafrentz (69overall). The top pick in the draft was 83 overall!!! so i had no chance with that guy. the closest i got was in the wizards who had the 3rd pick and their rookie was a 67 overall. his name is roman craft ... junior out of stanford. so i they accepted my trade ... lafrentz for craft.

Overall my team got a lot better. Reggie was a 61 overall so i definitely have a better shooting guard now. Jumaine Jones in my backup SF at 75 overall. My starting lineup looks like this:

C - Chris Mihm (59 overall, previoulsy 54)
PF - Shareef Abdur Rahim (79 overall, previoulsy 74)
SF - Paul "The Truth" Pierce (86 overall, previously 88)
SG - Roman Craft (the rookie)
PG - Mike James (now 64 overall --- jumped 6 points up from 58)

[renegade]

i m liking the your style. Sit there with the pop corn and watch it play.

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

the new season recantly began and the rejuvenated boston celtics were ready for the challange. by surprising everyone, the started off 15 - 0 and were suddenly the envy of the league. all starters averaged double figures in scoring which definitely shows good sharing of the ball. now, at 23 - 7, they sit at the top of the league.

the real surprise has been the play of utah's rookie power forward who was selected 4th in the draft. he's averaging 21.2 ppg and 10.1 rpg (does anyone remember malone?). but even more surprising is that he's only 64 overall!! utah is now 15 - 13 led by their rookie sensation. they were the worst team in the league last year. not bad for a team with the 4th pick.

our rookie roman craft, a shooting guard, has been playing up to expectations also. he's filled reggie's shoes perfectly. he's averaging 11.1 ppg and 4.3 apg which is not bad for someone who is playing in a team filled with all stars such as paul pierce and shareef. and by the way, he's got lots of potential. other notables are chris mihm, who is playing splendidly well averaging 15 ppg, 11 rpg, and 2 bpg (a big improvement over lafrentz).

i will update again as the second season continues as i try to take boston back to their old glory days ... we'll see if this is the year (since they have the best record in the league.) once again, i dont play the games ... i watch the computer play ... hence i do not have any control over whether we win or not (which adds to the fun of controlling a franchise).

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

oh man, what a year it has been for the celts. at 61-19, they sit atop the league with only 2 games left in the season.

some highlights of great games:

celtics vs. sixers (sometime in february):

what a game .... two superstars going against each other. the answer vs. the truth (which do u prefer?? ). sixers had a 7 point lead at the end of the third and the c's came storming back. the highlight of the game? paul pierce knocks down the three at the buzzer to send it to overtime. it was awesome .... he used his skills to create some separation and buried the jumper as time expired .... that's what clutch players do. and in overtime, the celts took care of business. final score 112 - 109.

lakers @ celtics (sometime in march):

this game lived up to expectations and maybe more. but most importantly, it brought back the old rivalry between the celtics and the lakers. we are literally back in the 80's; both the C's and Lakers are playing dominating basketball. this game could be the preview of the finals. anyways, enought of the introduction ... lets get to the game.

the celts got off to a fast start as they led 21 - 7 in the first quarter. lakers kept inching back and finally took the lead in the third behind kobe's heroics (the guy just doesn's miss). in the fourth quarter, lakers take a 10 pt lead with 4 mins left. and before u give up any hope, here come the celtics. paul pierce makes a four point play and mike james steals the ball and passes an alley oop to roman craft. yes roman craft!!! this game was like his official arrival to stardom as he went basket for basket against kobe. anyways, with 10 seconds left, c's were down by three because gary payton had made 1 of 2 free throws. then paul pierce drove baseline and dished it out to roman craft who knocked down the rainbow on kobe's face!! tie game!! end of regulation!! we now go to overtime.

in overtime, the c's got took quite a large lead ... up by 8 infact. but those relentless lakers kept fighting and kobe hit a 3 pointer with 3 seconds left to tie the game again after roman craft missed both free throws (damn rookie!). and now we go to double overtime.

once again, c's take a large lead (11 point lead at one time). shareef abdur rahim and roman craft just killed the lakers by scoring basket after basket (their defense was amazing too). however, those lakers somehow found a way back and the game was all tied with about 45 seconds left. then with 13 seconds left, gary payton knocked down a runner from the right wing as the lakers took a two point lead. however, the celtics three point attemt at the buzzer would come up short. lakers walked away with the victory. (kobe 31 pts, roman craft 26 pts, paul pierce 28 pts, abdur rahim 29 pts).

celtics @ lakers (early april)

this game was pretty close throughout the game. then paul pierce hits two big threes in the final two minutes to seal the deal as the celtics avenge their earlier loss that ended their 8 game win streak. (now they have a 6 game win streak) anyways, c's won 102 - 95.

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

playoffs are coming up soon .... so i will update here on how the c's do. wish them luck!!

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

the playoffs are here!!
first round opponent: atlanta

wow, we are in the same situation as we were in last year. however this time, we are the #1 seed and ATL is #8. and so it began!
the celts took the first game behind paul pierce's 45 points and atlanta won the next to make it 1 - 1. the whole series was very close as there was a seventh game eventually. however in the seventh game, the celtics showed why they owned the best record in the league by dismantling atlanta 117 - 83. we are off to the second round to face indiana!

second round opponent: indiana

this is the series that defined the celtics whole season. however, it began on a bad note. indiana won the first game, then the second game, and then the third game (all by large margins). now, for the celtics to keep their championship hopes alive, they would have change history by winning the next 4 games. and that is exactly what they ended up doing. it all started with shareef abdur rahim's inspiring performance in game 4 as he lit up the pacers for 43 points and 18 rebounds and boston won big!! (104 - 72). They would carry this momentum to just annihilate indiana in the next four games. Series is over 4 games to 3 in boston's favor. It was Boston's destiny to win. And now, we go on to face the raptors in the conference finals (yes those raps that swept us last year and went on to win the title).

eastern conference finals
opponent: toronto

before this series even began, boston was determined to win. they remember being embarrassed last year; however, this year, they wanted to return the favors. after all, destiny is on our side. and just like that, the raps were no match for the celtics as they got swept. paul pierce just dominated vince carter during the whole series. and toronto was never able to put it together. western conference finals mvp: paul pierce.
celtics sweep raps (4 - 0).

next stop --- back to the nba finals baby!! the boston glory days are back .... u can just feel the atmosphere in the air. it just took one extra year for the team to get it together (after the big trade for shareef) ... and now, we are so close to the promise land.

in the western conference, it was the lakers vs. timberwolves in the final there. timberwolves barely inched out a victory in game 7 (102 - 97).

so now, here we are ... nba finals!!
two great stories ... two great teams

minnesota was finally able to get out of the first round ... and indeed they reached all the way to the finals

and boston is now back where it belongs ... the nba finals

stay tuned ... more is on the way!!

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

NBA FINALS
Game 1:
Minnesota Timberwolves (49 - 33) @ Boston Celtics (62 - 20)

It was the best player in the NBA (KG the MVP) vs. the best team in the NBA (Celtics record-wise).

And so it began. Shareef scored the first points of his NBA finals career immediately. Boston quickly started scoring baskets at will. Minnesota just couldnt play defense as the celts led at the end of third: 23 - 38. Leading scorer: abdur rahim with 19 points.

In the second quarter, minnesota started showing signs of life as the started to come back. KG was having a dissappointing performace so far as he just couldnt get anything going. However, spree, cassel, and Q richardson (signed with twolves as free agent) carried them in the second quarter as they cut the lead down to 7. it was 67 - 60 at halftime.

In the third quarter, it was more boston as paul pierce, roman craft, and shareef lit up the timberwolves with so many dunks, jump shots, and 3's. Minnesota needs to realize that zone defence wont work against the celtics. howver, minnesota was able to come back at the end of the quarter to make it 87 - 80.

In the fourth quarte, the celtics were determined to win. And they held off the minnesota twolves with style as shareef, the truth, and roman craft took care of business. final score: celtics win 113 - 104.

player of game: shareef - 39 pts, 16 rebs, 3 blocks, 4 assists

game two updates will come soon!

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

NBA Finals
game 2

Series: Boston 1 - Minnesota 0

Minnesota Timberwolves (49 - 33) @ Boston Celtics (62 - 20)

Minnesota came out with a sense of urgency as they finally made this game look like how a final game is supposed to be played. they took an early 10 point lead ... but boston came back to make it 28 - 25 in favor of minnesota at the end of first quarter.

In the second quarter, it was more minnesota as kevin garnett showed everybody why he's the MVP with his offense and defense. he had 8 points, 3 assists, and 4 blocks in the quarter. In the other end, shareef continued his splendid play as he kept his pace with garnett. Paul Pierce and Roman Craft were giving their ends of the deal also. However, minnesota just outplayed boston and led by 11 at halftime.

In the third quarter, boston got serious and started playing some defense as they slowly started to inch back in the game. At one point, they came within 1 point, but Minnesota would go on a 8 - 0 run to make it a 9 point game again. But boston made a little comeback to make it a 4 point game at the end of third ( 75 - 79 ).

In the fourth, the stars for both teams came to play ... not on offense, but on defense. first, boston tied the game at 79 and tied it again at 81. then, for about 4 minutes, nobody was able to score. KG recorded block after block ... on the other end, Reef and Pierce had some rejections and steals. And then, with about 3 minutes left, came the defining moment of the game. Paul Pierce blocks Spree's three point attempt ... and takes it to the other end for a tomahawk jam! then, roman craft intercepted the pass and took it the length of the court only to get fouled and knocked down two free throws. The lead was now in favor of boston 91 - 87 with two minutes left. And from this point, it was back and forth scoring as boston was finally able to pull this one out 99 - 95. Series in favor of boston: 2 games to none.

Stay tuned for game 3 results

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

by the way, since my team did have the best record in the league .... i got into the magazines ... twice!! i've taken screen shots of them. anyways, i take a lot of screen-shots during the games and i'm thinking about making a webiste about this franchise. what do u guys think? should i upload those pics up to this forum or a website? please give me some feedback. i can make a website if enough people would like to see it.

[Drex]

Great franchise. Your rookie is great. Keep it up and make that website

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

hey thanx for replying .... i will certainly look into making a website about my team. anyways, i just watched game 3 and i will post up the results later. i would like to give away the ending now ... but it was a very exciting game as both teams went at it ... so i should save it for later.

by the way, i forgot to mention the awards players received at the end of the season so here they are:

MVP --- KG (99 overall .... so i guess we can call him the next great ONE!)
ROOKIE OF THE YEAR---- Brent Newbill (PF from Utah ... this was a no brainer .... he was the best rookie - 21.2 ppg, 9.1 rpg, 2 bpg)
DEFENSIVE PLAYER --- Big Ben Wallace (we all know why)
SIXTH MAN --- Bonzi Wells (Memphis)
COACH OF THE YEAR ---- Jim O' Brien (well now, he's not there anymore ... how ironic)
GM of the year ---- Me, the Celtics GM --- 62 - 20 record

and last but not least

Paul Pierce was voted All NBA First Team (22.8 ppg, 8.3 rpg, 1.2 bpg, 2.0 spg) --- this was the second year of the dynasty mode (which explains the discrepancy in the scoring average)

rookie Roman Craft was All NBA Rookie 1st team with (12.9 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.8 apg, 1.6 spg)

so stay tuned for game 3 results

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

here are the long awaited game 3 results:

NBA Finals 2004
Game 3

Boston Celtics (62 - 20) @ Minnesota Timberwolves (49 - 33)

Boston leads series 2 - 0

Minnesota basically had their backs to the wall this time. They did the right things in game two, but squandered a huge lead late in the game. That's not going to win you the championship. KG their best player (and considered by many to be the best player in the league) has not played up to expectations. He has the stats, but he's not being a leader out there. He has not made it easier for his team and vice versa. So far, he has been heavily criticized and if he wants people to talk about him as one the best ever, he better start playing like it.

In the first quarter, Minnesota bursted out to a huge lead as expected. And who else but KG was leading the way. At one point, they were leading 20 - 4. However, Boston started double teaming KG again and Minnesota got in a cold streak as Paul Pierce started dunking and knocking down a barrage of threes. Shareef and Roman Craft had a modest quarter as they contributed a little on offense. The score at the end of the first ... 38 - 35 in favor of Minnesota.

In the second quarter, minnesota got out of their funk and got hot again. This time, they built up a 10 point lead ... as they outscored boston's bench by 10. The score was 49 - 39. They would go back and forth this way until halftime as the score was 54 - 64 in favor of minnesota.

I dont know what Jim O' Brien said in the Celtics locker room at halftime, but they came out hungry in the second half as they went on a 14 - 0 run within the first two minutes of the quarter. Paul Pierce led the charge with 2 steals, 3 blocks, and about a half - a - dozen dunks. It was either Minnesota's offense or Boston's defense .... but something was not clicking for minnesota as they went on a cold streak.

The score was 71 - 67 in favor of boston midway thru the third quarter. However, the T-wolves would somehow make a run behind KG and Q Rich as they took the lead again at 75 - 73. By the way, Q Rich was having a heck of a game as he was keeping Minni alive with 3's and a couple of alley oops.

The game was very close from here on .... as they traded baskets. Just imagine, Shareef and KG going at each other .... Garnett throws down a monsterous dunk after a spin move ... and on the other end, 'Reef answers with his twisted layup after making his moves. Anyways, the defining moment of this game would come from Voshon Lenard (I mentioned earlier in the thread that I signed him as a free agent). With boston leading 81 - 83, he goes behind the three point line ... gets fouled and knocks down the three at the same time ... completing the 4 point play. That somehow sucked all the life out of minnesota. And then, at the end of the quarter, with boston leading 87 - 90, Marcus Banks drains a fade-away of Cassel's face at the buzzer. Score at the end of third: 92 - 87 Boston.

The first basket of the fourth quarter was scored by Cassel on a runner. That was the last time Minnesota would score for a long long time. Boston had shareef and four bench players and they just shattered minnesota's hopes of winning this game. Minnesota just couldnt get anything going against Boston's daunting defense. All of a sudden, the score was 112 - 93 and the coach pulled 'Reef out to sit out the rest of the game. It was officially garbage time! Final Score: Boston 120 - Minnesota 106

Boston now leads the series 3 - 0

Getting ready for the sweep .... Minnesota needs a Boston type miracle if they want the gold (Boston came back to win in the previous round after falling in a 3 - 0 hole)

Player of the Game --- Paul Pierce --- 23 points in just 27 minutes
Other notables --- Shareef - 16 pts
Roman Craft - 21 pts
Q Richardson (Twolves) - 28 pts
KG - 22 pts, 16 boards, 7 blocks
Spree - 19 pts
Cassel - 6 pts, 13 assists

By the way, Cassel had 8 assists in first quarter, and 12 by halftime ... he just had 1 assist in the second half.

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

oh a mistake on the previous input


NBA Finals 2005

not 2004

my mistake

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

NBA Finals 2005

Game 4

Boston Celtics (62 - 20) @ Minnesota Timberwolves (49 - 33)

Boston Leads series 3 - 0

It was bound to happen. KG just coulnt take all the criticizm anymore. He finally played like a well seasoned MVP by scoring 32 points, grabbing 12 rebounds, and swatting away 4 shots.

This game was pretty close until halftime where Minnesota led by 3 ... at 54 - 51.

When the third quarter began, Minnesota started playing some serious D-FENSE .... and KG took care of business on both sides. He was just unstoppable. There was no team on the planet that could have beaten the Wolves tonight. Paul Pierce scored 18 points ... but got blocked too many times shooting ill advised threes ... and the same goes for voshon lenard. The only player who had a productive game for boston was shareef with 29 pts, 13 rebs, 7 blocked shots.

Now Minnesota has some momentum going there way .... lets see if they can take this to a game 6. Final Score --- Minnesota Wins 107 - 94

Player of the Game --- KG with 32 points, 12 boards, 4 blocks

Boston leads series 3 - 1

Now this finals series is starting to be interesting!

Stay tuned for game 5 results

Hey man great dynasty u got there, do you do the subs yourself or let the cpu do it??

[Bill Russell]

Keep it up, I enjoy reading your recaps, very well done,

Which configs do you set? 12 min. quarters, superstar? Do you use any roster updates?

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

Hey man great dynasty u got there, do you do the subs yourself or let the cpu do it??

thanx a lot dude. well i let the cpu do it because i feel that i'm not the coach ... just the GM

Keep it up, I enjoy reading your recaps, very well done,

Which configs do you set? 12 min. quarters, superstar? Do you use any roster updates?

thanx ... i'm glad that your enjoyin reading about my franchise. to answer your questions ... initially, i had planned to watch 9 min quarters .... but i figured 12 minutes would be more realistic .. so i changed it to 12 minutes (which i forgot to mention in my earlier inputs ... sorry about that). and i use the superstar mode ... and i started this franchise right after darius miles was traded for jeff mckinnis ... and yes, i used andrew's rosters ... however i traded miles for mckinnis manually.

i'll probably watch game 6 tomorrow and recap it right after .... meanwhile, i'm planning to design a website concering this franchise so if anybody has suggestions for what i should put in the website, please let me know. i'm doing this for you guys, the readers.

once again, thanx for reading my inputs ... really appreciate it ... and more are on the way!

[Mark.]

For your Web site, it really depends on your web host. You should have the standard, stats, roster, transactions pages, but also a news page is good, as well as a gallery, some web hosts have some cool features that you can use, like one of those picture viewer things they have at nba.com are kool. Keep up da good work, cant wait for the next recap!!

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

thanx for the suggestions match_66!! i'll try to add those things into the website.

anyways, now to the recap of game 5:

NBA Finals 2005
Game 5

Boston Celtics (62 - 20) vs. Minnesota Timberwolves (49 - 33)

Boston leads series 3 - 1

This game was decided in the first quarter when Paul Pierce (who predicted that the Celtics would win game 5) took over. He was tired of all this talk around KG and he reminded everyone that he is a superstar also. On this night, he might have taken over as the best player in the league because Garnett didnt show up in the biggest game of his life! Paul Pierce did everything in the first quarter to inspire his teammates to step up. He scored, stole, rebounded on both ends, and blocked shots (one of the blocks was agianst KG). It is fair to call his performance tonight Jordanesque! In the first quarter, he would have 14 points before getting a breather with about 7 minutes left and boston leading by 22 points already. So he did not get back till the second quarter. Score at the end of first: 34 - 19 in favor of Boston.

In the second, Boston just killed Minnesota as they scored 70 points by halftime! Score at halftime: 70 - 41 .... by the way ... KG has had a horrible game up to this point. Only 4 points and 4 rebounds. 'Reef has 12 points, 8 rebounds, 5 blocks. And Paul Pierce leads all scorers with 27 points ... and Mike James leads in assists with 8 at halftime. Q Rich led the TWolves with 11 points.

It was the same story in the third and fourth quarters. Boston cracked the 100 point mark in the third quarter. That's all we need to know because it was really ugly for Minnesota. They played horrible in this game. The Clippers would have played a better game 5 than Minnesota tonight.

Anyways, garbage time really started in the 2nd quarter when boston took a 42 point lead! And pretty much all the starters were taken out and didnt play the majority of the second half.

Finals Score: 117 - 85.
Player of the Game: Paul Pierce - 32 points, 67% shooting, and 5 assists.
Other notables: Mike James - 15 points, 13 assists
Shareef Abdur-Rahim - 20 points, 11 rebounds, 7 blocks

Player of the Game for Minnesota: Q Rich - 20 Points

Goat of the Game: KG - 8 points, 7 rebounds

As the Boston Celtics win the NBA Championship with a 4 - 1 series victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Finals MVP - Paul "The Truth" Pierce

And of course, I got on the magazine!

Looking back at this season brings a smile to my face. I've done it in just two years and all it took was some shuffling of the lineup. We found the perfect piece to the puzzle in Shareef Abdur Rahim and we got a gem in the rookie Roman Craft.

Not the question is ... Can this team become a dynasty?
Or is this just a one year stint??

We will have to wait to find out

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

beginning of new season.

i dont remember all the moves i pulled in the offseason .... i will add that on later.

however, i did make a risky trade!!

The Houston Rockets had drafted a center by the name of Ade Stafford with the 6th overall pick in 2004 .... however, he has to play behind yao ming ... They also lost Kelvin Cato to free agency.

So i decided to take a risk by trading two of my best players off the bench to get him.

I traded:
Jumain Jones (68 overall)
Walter McCarty (66 overall)

for
Ade Stafford (72 overall)
some other guy (49 overall)

they accepted the trade!

I hope that this trade was not detrimental to my team!

It did help the Rockets though.

Hopefully this kid Stafford will be a star in the future.

More will be updated later.

Stay tuned to find out if the Celts can repeat this year

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

after i made the trade ... i decided to sim the rest of the season. Boston got off to a slow start but went on an 11 game win streak to get back into the heat. They finished the season 52 - 30. Dallas had the best record at 58-24.

Ade Stafford averaged 17 ppg and 9 rpg ... He was a big part of the season. Hence, the trade i made paid big dividends for my team!
I now have a legitimate center that can score in the low post any time he wants. One disadvantage is that he's only 6'11" ... however, that doesnt seem to effect the way he plays.

Shareef averaged 20.0 ppg and Pierce averaged 19.7 ppg.
Mike James averaged 13.5 ppg and Roman Craft 12.1 ppg.

In the playoffs, we met orlando in the first round ... we took the series 4 - 1. In the second round ... (yep, u guessed right) ... atlanta once again. For the third straight year, we meet them in the playoffs and we knock them out. This time with a sweep!

In the conference finals, guess who??? That's right - Indiana once again.
And what a series this was ... once again going to a 7th game ... and finally Boston inched it out to make a return trip to the Finals!!

Who do they meet in the finals??
THE DALLAS MAVERICKS

Dallas beat the lakers 4 -3.

I simmed the firs 4 games of the finals and watched the last game.
Boston was leading 3 - 1 and Dallas was pretty much out of it.
And as expected, Boston wins a REPEAT CHAMPIONSHIP.
They are officially a dynasty!

Paul Pierce is MVP - 22.8 ppg, 8.6 rpg, 2.3 spg, 4.2 apg

However ... there was an unexpected surprise during the offseason.

The Chicago Bulls offered me a position as their GM.

So what do you guys think??
Should I accept it or should i stick with Boston?

Please let me know

P.S. Chicago was the worst team in the league during 2005-2006 season

[mp3]

mmmm tough one, u have slugged it out with Boston to get them where they are now and it would be good to see how your rookies turn out but on the other hand up have a fresh team that u can go in pull the trigger on loads of trades plus the Bulls will have a pretty high draft pick as well so it could be fun.
At the end of the day it comes down to weather you want to give up the glory and start again from sratch.
If it was be id take the Bulls job... but thats just me
Whats the Bulls Roster looking like now?

p.s i never knew that you could be offered new GM postions.. u learn something everyday

[PRoPuLsiOnDJ]

the bulls roster is a mess right now
starting lineup:

C - Eddy Curry (62 overall)
PF - Tyson Chandler (74 overall)
SF - Eddie Robinson (56 overall)
SG - Jamal Crawford (58 overall)
PG - Jay Williams (63 overall)

they had a 20 - 62 record last year!

so what i did was i saved my boston franchise at the point where they won the championship. I accepted the bulls offer during the offseason and pulled all the offseason moves.

They had the 4th pick in the draft ... and i drafted a SG by the name of Bryan Cooper (73 overall). He was supposed to go first ... but I was able to draft him.

So I also saved the Bulls Dynasty.

Now i can decide which one to use.

So i need some feedback on what u guys think about which dynasty i should control.

Thanx a lot!

P.S. Yeah they do offer new GM positions along with 10000 dynasty points!
