Logain, yea it's a long story but I'm 100% back now. Spent about 5 hours today trying all sorts of combinations with 66-67 Wilt, 68-69 Lucas, and 13-14 Harden. If anyone else thinks they have cap problems try building a team after investing almost $28m for only 9580 minutes of a 1-point tier, 2-point tier, and a 6-point tier player. Yes Lucas and Wilt will create possessions at a rate far exceeding the norm for the tier, but that does not address the exposure to the usage penalty issues I'm staring down right now. Thinking I either spent a 3rd round pick on OKC Beard or a 2nd on a sub-optimal Lucas at this point.

I personally did not like Lucas in the 2nd for you at all.

well i feel like im ripping off mikes 52 team(dont you hate that...we have all used tons of repeat combos, but if you use one from the most recent drafts, you feel totally unoriginal) but this combo is too good down low to pass up....

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!

Ben takes Tom Boerwinkle by proxy.

I take Buck Williams.

When I got the '66' Wilt in the DH52 my biggest concern was low usage penalty. Some guy's thought I brought too much usage, but I see no indication of too much usage and the team never goes into low usage penalty either. I agree usage is a little tough with the '66' Wilt.
