Re: 1999 Preseason
suprising 10-6. Keefe and Alvin Williams look like they will provide good scoring off the bench and Quinnett still seems to be a beast

Re: 1999 Preseason
Aaay played my best guys and did absolutely awful, so that's promising.
Coleman definitely looking washed but we'll see. Booker has never had a good preseason.

Re: 1999 Preseason
Offense is as advertised. Mutombo got hurt early, so tough to see what type of impact he'll have
Starbury putting up points but no assists or TOs in DAL. Might be a cheese lord if he keeps improving offensively. Def a fun player

Re: 1999 Preseason
Looks like my prediction was right. Nothing but 15ppg rookies…
Francis probably only one with elite potential. Maybe Brand or Posey. Or Mags, Manu, Wally.
2000 draft will be most of the same, so no complaints. 2003 and upwards til 2009 will be nice drafts though

Re: 1999 Preseason
Too bad one of the best steals blocks players in nba history just has the crappiest steal/block rates here
At least Kirilenko looks more realistic

Re: 1999 Preseason
Man Rodman was a terrible disappointment. Guys limited to 4/5 early on suffered like Mailman. Barkley another guy.offtheheezy wrote:Too bad one of the best steals blocks players in nba history just has the crappiest steal/block rates here

I think issues being limited have been fixed. Can’t make a jump shooting perimeter defender if he’s playing 4/5

Re: 1999 Preseason
To be fair Rodman was never a huge steals / blocks guy. Just had a ton of “intangibles” which is impossible to put into FBBjibbajabba614 wrote:Man Rodman was a terrible disappointment.

Re: 1999 Preseason
Mavericks
Encouraging to see the backups hold opponents to 92.2 points and Posey bringing some offense to the table in year 1. Hughes needs more time though
Heat
Name Pos Games MPG PPG RPG APG SPG BPG TPG FG% FT% 3P%
Jermaine O'Neal C 18 31.8 18.9 10.8 0.9 1.1 1.4 1.6 .520 .652 .000
O'Neal is playing better than his rating show and is very encouraging as a spot starter/backup this season
This team will lead the league in blocks and it wont be close
Warriors
Team is still a couple years away from contending but they have pieces to build on. Post looks settled with the Kandi man and Smith. Bender will need more seasoning and the guards (long-term) have question marks on who can help fill out the squad. Wont be a bottom team this season as Elliott will provide enough scoring to win games

Re: 1999 Preseason
I'm content with the output. Kebu still shows he has great scoring abilities, though limited use outside of that. Nash is straight up bawling and if he isn't in your list of top 5 pgs, he soon will be.
