Honestly, having one of those big name guys out on your team is almost equal to some of the names that we've had out. You have a deep team of top talent to replace them with...Deng was one of my top players...just because he wouldn't be a top player on your team doesn't mean that it doesn't kill me.

Anyway, enough excuses, I need to find a way to slide into 3rd place.

I don't want to argue, but there's no way I knew Brand was going to be out when I decided to keep him. I probably still would've kept him, but anyway...

Yeah you would be getting a lot more production with Brand and Arenas but you are still 30 some games ahead of second so really you've only lost a shot at 1st overall and your still only 9 back there.

True enough.

I'm just hoping they give me a boost IN the playoffs, not INTO the playoffs.

Thank you.

Finally... after 2 years of regular season domination and playoff failure.

Great run by a few of the new owners though for sure! Bass Legion went from 10th to 6th over the last few weeks of the season. Dwight's Army and Aftershock ended up in 2nd and 3rd, quite impressively. Both gave me a run for the money, that's for sure.

Good year overall, I'll keep y'all posted on keepers, draft, etc.

Have an awesome summer!
