Team looks good.....for now

Window will likely be shorter than I'd hoped but we look strong for the next 2 years or so at least

Notable improvements on the admin teams

Magic
Jarron Collins C 23 6'11'' 255 B- C C- B- B C
Jarron Collins C 23 6'11'' 255 B C C- B B+ C
+1 inside, defense, rebounding
great surprise but he is probably teetering on those ratings

Ron Mercer SG 25 6'7'' 210 C+ A C+ A D+ B
Ron Mercer SG 25 6'7'' 210 B- A C+ A+ D B
+1 inside, +1 defense, -1 reb
Will be interesting to see if this increases his production or its just a rating update

Heat
Chris Andersen C 23 6'10'' 245 C D+ D+ B A- A
Chris Andersen C 23 6'10'' 245 C D+ D+ B+ A B
+1 defense, +1 reb
Nice improvement but lets see if it plays out on the court. Seemed to play soft last season

Warriors
Jonathan Bender SF 21 6'11'' 202 B- B- C B- C+ A
Jonathan Bender SF 21 6'11'' 202 B- B C+ B C+ A
+1 outside, +1 handles, +1 defense
Slowly has improved each season and with a better team around him, can he make another leap?

Mateen Cleaves PG 24 6'2'' 205 C+ C B C+ D A
Mateen Cleaves PG 24 6'2'' 205 C+ C B+ B- D+ A
+1 handles, +1 defense, +1 reb
With Wedge and Brandon signed for this season, he can afford to sit on the bench

Tim Duncan: -1 han, -1 pot.
Honestly, not what I want to see, but the guy does exactly what he’s meant to do: elite defensive anchor with great rebounding. His handling going down doesn’t worry me either, he’s good with turnovers. He’s also only 25 so not worried. Will be leaning on him more this year to anchor that defense.

Dikembe Mutombo: -1 han, -1 pot.
Seeing a pattern for my starting bigs here LOL. He’s 35, I’m happy.

Charles Barkley: -1 ins, -1 han.
He’s 38 haha.

Cal Bowdler: +1 def.
We’ll gladly take it!

Kobe Bryant: +1 out, +1 pot.
Here we go, things are starting to look mighty beautiful here. Nothing to hate, everything to love here.

Tracy McGrady: +1 ins.
Still sitting at A potential entering his 5th year and those ratings are looking absolutely gorgeous. He’s going to have more of a role in the offense this year.

Eddie Jones: +1 pot.
Nothing to say. Excellent player, pound for pound best contract in the league I’d say.

Larry Hughes: -1 pot.
Hoping those numerical ratings went up at least, but hey he’s still young.

Erick Barkley: +1 out, +1 def, +1 reb.
Hey, some life; let’s see what goes on with this guy as he continues to grow. Will still ride the bench this year though of course.

Tyson Wheeler: +1 out, +1 reb.
Let’s see who’s going to start at PG this year. Good showing in TC for this guy.

Cory Alexander: +1 def, -1 reb.

Howard Eisley: No change.


All in all, wish my bigs had improved, but I think the inside defense between Duncan and Mutombo will still be tremendous. Kobe and TMac showed up this TC. They’re the engine on O anyway. Let’s see what this duo can do this year.

FWIW, pot can't go up for guys 20 and older.
