Simming 2013-2014 season

This will be my first attempt at compiling a Dynstay on the OS forums.

Until i figure out a way to get some quality pics etc on here, i will be relying on the Table Generators here on OS.

I follow the same "House Rules" as these from Dreece.

House Rules:

1. I play 2 predeterminded games in each calendar year(simming the rest)I play all playoff games if we qualify

2. Since I only control 1 team, player roles will be off and trading will only be active from Christmas to the trade deadline. This usually cuts down on random stupid trades by the cpu.

3. ABSOLUTELY no in season drills! Post season drills are allowed on 1st and 2nd year players only.

4. Can only trade or attain a 1st round pick once every 3 years.

5. The use of untapped potential is allow but only once every 3 years...give your young guys time to develop. On rare occassions will a real life NBA team continue to draft high rated players at the same position before they know if they lost out on their initial investment.

PART I:
I began with "Today" simply because the Raptors are on a tear and deserve to be playoff bound.

Funnily enough we made the Playoffs with the 4 Seed. Actually being the only team above .500 in our division.

Demar DeRozan was named to the all NBA 3rd team. Which i truly believe is well deserved after watching him this season.

We faced off against the Wizards in round 1 and took them down in 5 games. Then got swept by the Pacers in the second.

Would you believe it the Spurs took on the Heat in the finals for the second season running except this time they took them down!

John Salmons retired, Vasquez, Patterson & Lowry have all taken to testing FA.

Draft night actually blew my mind, had to be one of the strangest drafts i have ever partaken in.

Spoiler

Salmons retired. Patterson & Vasquez hit FA, and i cut Landry Fields. Refuse to pay that contract to an extra seat on the bench

My Free Agency Highlights

Kyle Lowry 3yr/21.86mil
I brought him back as he had such a fantastic 13-14 campaign and i'm hoping to mold Ashley into this same kind of player with a few years of tutelage from K Low.

Vince Carter 1yr/1.17mil
Purely a nostalgia move! Some Raptor fans don't ever want him back. Personally i love VC. And this may be his last year at the age of 37 he's not gonna be playing big minute s by any stretch but to fill Landry Fields spot for 1/7th of the contract, money well spent.

Matt Barnes 2yr/2.94mil
I was hoping to keep Salmons for one more year, unfortunately with his retirement that left us a little bare at the 3. So i picked up Barnes up hopefully to bring some off that Veteran back we lost.

Jerryd Bayless 2yr/3.96mil
This last spot was a litte tough for me to fill. I knew i needed another guard but there were many options, i didn't want to particulary over pay for. So this was essentially a short term stop gap until Walker is ready to take on extra mintues.

Traning Camps.

Easy choice right here.

Ashley Walker (PG) - Untapped Potential. If i'm only doing it once every 3 years, then why not start with the guy we just brought in to take over the PG spot in roughly 3 years time.

My next post will detail the squad for the 2014-2015 season, our objectives moving forward and some prospects that my scouts will be keeping an eye on.
