I started thunder association , with the 2k10 draft class.

Traded kristic, collison and westbrook 1st rnd (okc) for
Dwight howard 2010 1st rndand 2011 1st rnd and 2010 2nd rnd (magic)

I sign lindsey hunter, sun yue, stephon marbury

traded 1st round pick 2011 (okc) marbury, mullens and kevin ollie for chris anderson and 2010 and 2011 first round pick, 2010 2nd round pick (den)

Signed raja bell, brevin knight

Trade brevin knight, chris anderson, kyle weaver and 2nd round pick thunder for
Jason kapono, jason smith 1st round pick 76ers 2010, 2nd round pick 2010

Next i trade Raja bell and thabo sefolosha for
Derek fisher 1st rnd pick 10 and 2nd rnd pick 10


So Far this is how my lineup looks like

Pg - Derek Fisher, Eric maynor, Lindsey hunter, Sun yue
Sg -James harden
Sf - Kevin durant, jason kapono
Pf - Jeff green, Serge Ibaka, Dj white , Jason Smith
C- Dwight howard, Ethan Thomas

Now i trade dj white and jason smith 2nd round pick 76ers for expiring contract grant hill.

Sign anthony riley and shelden williams

Trade anthony riley and shelden williams for Charlie villanueva of pistons.

Then i trade Charlie villanueva, jason kapono, and ethan thomas 2nd round pick magic 10 for

Shaquille oneal, zydrunas ilgauskus and jawad williams

I started out with around 12 mill of cap free space. Now i am at -1.59 space.
But with the way my team is looking, majority of my players are on contract years.

Thabo 2.76 mill
grant hill 3.00 mill
jawad williams, 736k
lindsey hunter, 412k
Shaquille Oneal. 20 mill
Z ilgasukas 1.31 mill
Derek Fisher 5.01 mill
Sun yue 412k

So lets say i dont resign anyone from that list in the next season, i automatically have 29-30 mill in free cap space.

If i resign shaq and fisher which i probably will ill have 26 mill maybe 27 in cap.

Me still free to sign a superstar player, but thats not the point of having this much cap room.

If you noticed i traded for a lot of 1st round draft picks. As ive said in the beginning i loaded up the 2010 draft class and i aimed for the draft picks of the most unsuccesful teams.

I started this season out with my 1st rnds and 2nd rnds. This is what i have now.

2010 draft picks
76ers
lakers
Magic
Nuggets

2011
Magic
Nuggets
Lakers

I came out with 7 1st rounders. My main target in this draft will be a point guard, which will be john wall. If i am nowhere near 1st round 1st pick i will trade 3 - 4 of my first rounders for the 1st pick. And bam i get john wall in my team.

THe final line up i have
Pg - Derek Fisher, Eric maynor, Lindsey hunter,
Sg -James harden, Sun yue (originall a pg but i changed him to sg due to his size and my need in depth in sg position)
Sf - Kevin durant, grant hill, jawad williams
Pf - Jeff green, Serge Ibaka,
C- Dwight howard, Shaquille Oneal, Zydrunas Ilgauskas

I have 13/15 players on roster and 7/13 of my players have expiring contracts. If i really wanted to be cheap, I could change dwight to a pf and have him play along side shaq.

Now im playing this season, almost done with it actually. Hopefully i get the chance to draft xavier henry and john wall.

Tell me what u guys think of what i did? Any ideas or maybe help with my roster /

I was thinking of picking up hasheem thabeet but im a little hesitant right now
Because i already have 3 centers, although if i do move howard as a pf id have 2 centers. It would be good to have thabeet as insurance when oneal retires. Which he probably will this season.

Signed this guy roy simpson

Traded jawad williams and roy simpson (63 rating) for brian scalabrine 44 rating and 1st round pick.

Signed Pops Mensa Bonsu

Traded brian scalabrine and pops mensa bonsu for roger mason.

Traded roger mason and eric maynor for hasheem thabeet, lester hudson and 1st round 10 pick

Signed juan dixon
traded juan dixon and lester hudson for sasha pavlovic

Traded sasha pavlovic for deaven george of the warriors

Now im debating this really tempting trade.
James harden , Jeff green and my 2011 picks Magic and Nuggets for Kings Tyreke Evans. This would give me the point guard i need right now. While i still have durant and hill to play the 2 and 3 spot.

[pigfacejoe]

Just started Thunder association. I want to keep the team together, but I need a big guy that can bang inside. I was thinking Oden, he fits in with their whole youth movement, and would give up Jeff Green and a 2nd-round pick.

Thoughts?

Dude, in my opinion, you've already messed up the Thunder enough. They had a good thing going already, and now you completely changed the composition of their team. Not that you haven't made them better, obviously, but nows its just stupid.

[mistamike]

yea i have because i dont believe in russel westbrook nor james harden.

Jeff green has great potential but i see it like this james harden is very inconsistent. Westbrook dont even get me started with him

Yes the thunder itself has already got it going for them, but for how long really? They dont have a decent big and the way the i did it is so for the future there is more cap space to resign, durant, green and maybe even harden.

But put it this way, if i trade green and harden away, i would get john wall in the next draft year. While already having tyreke evans. I can move him to the 2 spot

and i would have this as my starting lineup. Young and doesnt pay much. And when theyre contracts do run out im able to resign all of them.

pg - john wall
sg - tyreke evans
sf - kevin durant
pf - serge ibaka (until i find a decent player maybe derrick favors if i can trade for him)
c - dwight howard.

Thunder itself is what a run and gun 3 point shooting team. I made them more of a run and gun all around team. They are young and have potential to go on for a decade dynasty.

Yeah i changed the composition of the team, but i did it for the better.

Yeah my bench would be mixed of vets, role players and rookies. But thats what its all about.

Just saying, is mistamike is older than 13 I'm going to be pretty surprised. I hate completely overhauling rosters with ridiculously unrealistic and unfair trades....
