ysw - What's I like: I love the Wilt/George inside-outside combo. Great team efg%. Perimeter D is so important and PG/Bledsoe is a great start. Probably the top rebounding team in the league. Concerns/Needs: FT Shooting is gonna be in the 60%s. Tov% will be a little high but that's to be expected with Wilt. Still need some usg% from the remaing 5 roster slots. Plenty of those still available.
steelers - What I like: The flawless 2012-13 Lebron season. Towels? What towels? Very clean team. Solid, but not great, D. Good overall team efg. Concerns/Needs: That 38D from Dirk is a big hole for me. I feel like if you are gonna run a guy out there with defense that poor, he better be exceptional in at least a couple other areas (see Jokic, Nash, JoVal). Dirk can't really claim that, and although his tov% is super low, his rebounding at the PF position (cReb 21) is atrocious for this league. A big concern for me is that you are going to have to use a few guys out of position (Marion at the 2, either Dirk, Chriss, or Horford at the 3). Using one guy out of position for 5-10 minutes a game is ok. Using multiple guys for extended minutes is risky.
beachhouse - What I like: Curry AND Lillard? I've always wondered what a Dame/Curry combo would produce in the SIM. Never had the guts to try it though. Hats off to you. Should be fun! Let the 3-point parade begin. This team will live or die by the trey. If Dame has to consistently point at his wrist to remind you what time it is, it'll be a long night for your opponent. Concerns/Needs: Your perimeter D is 68, 50, 48. Any team with a high usg%, high efg% guard (almost every team in the league) is gonna feast. Rebounding is an issue. But you've got at least 3500 mins and $10M to address that. You've got way too much usage at this point. Guys like Nurkic/Oak/D Will are gonna take shots away from your Big 2. Your lowest usg lineup right now with Curry/Dame in the game is 121.9 and the highest is 129.1. Usg% is expensive and I feel like you're throwing money away.
gerryred - What I like: I like seeing Joker drafted this early. He puts you ahead of the game in so many categories and opens up lots of options going forward. Although his cReb bothers me, D Harper was a steal in the 6th round. Tons of assists. 6000+ minutes of 90/80D on the perimeter. Concerns/Needs: Tov% is gonna be high thanks to Draymond (21.2 tov%). Not a strong offensive rebounding team (unless you are using Tarpley 87-88, which you very well could be). Probably need a few more 3s but you have around 1700 minutes to fill in the backcourt, with plenty of good options available.
riftonapple - What I like: Great post defense! Very efficient 3pt shooting (north of 40%). Overall solid squad. Concerns/Needs: No glaring weaknesses I can see but definitely need a playmaker, someone with a high ast% to distribute the ball. Danny G and Powell are deadeye riflemen but they're allergic to board work. You'll probably need to add some high cReb guys to make this team more competitive on the boards.
