50 trades for Yourkers is both amazing and the least shocking thing But notva surprise. I also expected you to beat him to it 🤣 I’d guess my number is around 20. My problem is I thought I built an amazing roster the past 2 seasons but it just hasn’t worked out that way and I’ve remained stagnant. I’ll need to get back to wheeling and dealing |

I'm an awful GM. Have made the playoffs all 4 seasons with a team that won 21 games in real life. BTW, only two other teams have done so, the 76ers and Kings. www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/cha/charlotte-hornetsYes, I kept 3 players over 4 years. I'm sure most teams do that in real life. Also, I didn't draft Malik Reneau. I signed him as an in-season free agent. I've I do not make that many big trades. Never have, never will. I also do not see a true reason to flip the entire roster every other day. I'm not calling yourkers out for it, because I like him and he's just having fun. I can definitely be more "active" in terms of trades, but I've been here the entire time. Probably missed 3 depth charts in that time. I have two league jobs. I'm here, just not in the way that you would like me to be. |

Comparing fbb to real life is crazy when you have lamelo ball I think the write up is a little harsh given he's consistently been a playoff team around 50 wins and he got the same grade as teams that haven't made the playoffs, haven't drafted anyone of note, and haven't made many trades either. Knocking the Miller trade in particular is a weird one since Miller has been a disappointment to this point and Barrett at the time was a 23/24 year old scoring 20+ and fit Ball's timeline better |

Miller wouldn't be doing anything that Barrett isn't doing/ failing to do. He's probably mad that I didn't trade him Schroder and Booker for Brad Beal with the Suns. |

I got the same grade as the Pacers who started with a better team, made less trades and cut Malik Reneau, who you are giving me credit for. I've drafted fairly well which has helped also. I've camped all my young players including Reneau. You are just mad that I have not made a trade with you. |

I believe you are confusing the word dissapointed with mad.
I am not mad at you at all. I’m just dissapointed. You havent really done anything with your team besides post depth charts.
And you for some reason took another team as well that you’re doing absolutely nothing with as well except post depth charts.
I’ve seen you be a lot more active with the roster in the past even in my previous leagues that you were in.
This was an evaulation of your activity of your team not your activity on the forums.
If you thought I graded you based on being mad or what I thought of you trust me Slough and Dash would not have A’s

And since you like to look at stats. Brandon Miller is averaging 12 points 6 rebounds 2.5apg and only 1.2 turnovers with 47/85/50 fg % #2 in 3 pt percentage on a 55+ win team that has 2 players almost averaging 30. Also, Brandon Millers first 3 games in the playoffs vs Jayson Tatum hes averaging 19.6ppg on 62% fg and 68% 3s |

Leaving behind a playoff team with a superstar in his prime and all their picks is the best you can do in that situation |

I think that's what he is missing here.
I took the team to resign Schroder heading into FA, because they would've lost him. They had just made the finals.
I cannot trade an all 1st team SG for a lesser expiring SG. That's not a more desirable team.
There are only a few better FA than Booker out there and there are no guarantees that the Suns would sign them, so I believed keeping Booker makes the team better and more desirable. The only questionable thing in terms of desirability that I have done is give Ayton that contract.
Hell, I spent a bunch of the Hornets GM cash to scout players for the Suns, yet I'm still going to get shit for not doing enough.

One man’s opinion, you’re doing fine and helping the league by keeping the suns afloat |
