Yeah I get your excitement but I still don't see it...

I honestly didn't even remember hearing about Rubio sign his extension, what'd he get? If it was anymore than $10 mill a season it was a bad deal...

As far as Shabazz for MIP, I'm liking Draymond Green, Mason Plumlee, Tobias Harris or even Brandon Knight to win the award before he does...

I don't think so Quom... It'd be good to see, don't get me wrong but I just don't see it...

Pek & Martin are injury prone and do need to be traded imo... Pek's contract is horrible... Martin would probably be fairly easy to trade (hell if someone wanted JR Smith, someone would give something up for Martin)... Rubio is good but hasn't shown he can consistently score and who knows what he'll get in the offseason, contract wise... Thad hasn't produced how I thought he would here... Mo has worked out but you know he doesn't want to stick with a team like this and they should see what they can get for him too... Budinger absolutely needs to go as you've alluded to multiple times... Wiggins has been better than I thought he was gonna be (moreso recently then the glimpses he showed at the start of the season) and the rest of the roster is a work in progress with Shabazz starting to step up, Dieng contributing and Bennett hopefully realising his potential...

That's just my take on Minnesota though and I understand you see it differently as you've probably watched alot more of their games than I have but I still don't think this roster is making a playoff run next season in the loaded western conference...

Put me down to run a game when a spot becomes available later on as well... Had fun running my last DC Mafia game...

Got three games set up that I could possibly run all with varying amounts of players needed, so ill see how mafia is going when my turns comes around as to whether it's short/medium/long setup...

Thanks

Boston made a couple of trades today apparently... Been season for trades thus far...

The C's traded Brandon Wright to Phoenix for a conditional 1st Round Pick that Minnesota owes to Phoenix (which will likely turn into 2 2nd Round Picks because Minnesota won't make the playoffs this season or next I dont think) as well as creating a $5 mill trade exception in the process...

The other trade they made which hasn't been confirmed despite ESPN "confirming" it on their website is that they sent Jeff Green to Memphis for Tayshaun Prince's expiring contract and a future 1st Round Pick...

Yeah I'll have a go...

If I was the Knicks I'd want a crack at landing Jahlil Okafor from Duke... Dude is a beast and should go #1 imo...

There are some good young prospects that will go early in the draft and then there is shit... It's not going to be a deep draft at all I don't think...

Three team trade today...

Cavs get JR Smith & Iman Shumpert

OKC get Dion Waiters

Knicks get Lance Thomas, Alex Kirk & Lou Amundson

Knicks plan on waiving all three apparently... They're saving plenty of cash with this deal and definitely chasing that #1 pick hard lol...

Thunder get a streaky shooter who I don't think adds a great deal other than headaches for this team...

Cavs upgrade Waiters but also get head cases in the deal...

Good deal for the Knicks

Oh shut up Aikman. "They come from being down 10 at halftime". Two touchdown in 2 quarters isn't an amazing comeback. It's not like it was 36-0 at the half

That's the first time in postseason history that a team that was down 10 or more at halftime came back and won, so yeah, it's actually quite noteworthy.

Fair enough, wasn't aware of that. I stand corrected

Weren't the colts down like 26 or something in a wildcard game against the chiefs in the 3rd and pulled out the win?

Could be wrong but I seem to remember that happening, maybe even last year?

I think a player like John Henson would be amazing for Dallas at this stage and the Mavs could probably get him from Milwaukee for pretty cheap as well... He has been stuck in limbo in Milwaukee for most of his time their even though he has shown flashes of something... He just returned from injury too and put together a solid line for short minutes... Teams are going to want him and he easily fills a need in Dallas...

That's one hell of starting five in Dallas now... Instant championship contenders...

Rondo/Ellis/Parsons/Nowitzki/Chandler...

Tough, Up-Tempo style... I like it...

Put me down as a reserve unless you're desperate for players to start the game...

I've got Epic Brie Bella as my KotR reward the last three KotR :/

Yeah some of the trades the computer GMs make are ridiculous...

In one game I was playing as Phoenix... I saw an Amare Stoudemire for Kobe Bryant deal and was like WTF...

And I swear in the MyCareer mode, the trades that get made don't even make sense financially... I get drafted by Philly and are like $32M under the salary cap but a few trades late in the season and we take on some massive contracts and end up $28M over lol

Benji, don't watch Dominion... Holy hell did I think that show was horrible...

Give it a shot if you must but you probably won't get through the first ep lol

Alright... I've got enough to start... Had a big night on the booze, so I'm a little slow today but I'll get all the roles and what not out shortly...

OK too easy Rider...

One more people... Let's go...

Well that's 21... So do I wait now for Anime or Nintendo 64 Mafia to fill up or do I just go ahead and run this game?

OK, c'mon mafia people...

Where are the Srar's, Molly's, Ego's at? Anyone...

Need 1 or 2 (Hook can start instead of sub) signups... So close people...

C'Mon Ego... You know you want to... I'm sorry I can't promise you Ambush Bug, but if he's in the game, then you've at least got a chance at getting him

Yeah I'm in

Alrighty people... 21 people wanted to compete in a mafia game based around the DC Universe...

You know the drill... Leave your name and I'll add you to the list, if you want to be placed on a reserved list that is fine also... With other games not getting many signups, ill see how this goes with the number of players I want... Worst comes to worst, I can edit it down a bit and the game can still go ahead...

Looking forward to seeing who signs up and hopefully everyone enjoys my third attempt at running a mafia game...

OK ill get it started now and then if RDT gets his up too before mine fills up, he can just run his before me...

I can do mine if RDT isn't ready yet?

Yeah bored the shit out of me tbh... I didn't like it and it just didnt fit with the season thus far to me... Hopefully it bounces back next week...

I really shouldn't ever watch Phoenix games cause when I do they play like shit...

Massive blowout loss to Utah today
