Best Team to Re-Build for Association?

[dpower15]

What team do you guys think is the team most in need of rebuilding/biggest challenge to rebuild in association this year?

What I mean by toughest is that the Jazz, though they will be bad this year, are pretty much built and ready to go.

A couple teams I think are interesting are the Suns and Hawks. Neither really has a game changer but they do have some decent pieces and upcoming players. The Bucks too, I just won't use them because its too weird for me to play as Larry Sanders after playing against him in high school lol.

I'd say the Mavs would be one of the hardest to get back to contender status. After signing Ellis and Calderon to relatively large, long term deals, with guys like Marion, Harris, Wright on the books as well, and Dirk possibly receiving a large extension next summer if he stays with them, they could be locked into mediocrity for the foreseeable future with veteran players and little cap room.

Suns; they have a big trading piece in Gortat and a unknown in eric bledsoe. The hawks in my eyes are still a playoff team so a rebuild with them wont really be effective while keeping things realistic.

Been running one with Orlando. Building around Harris, Harkless, and Oladipo has been fun. Traded Vucevic for Henson and a second round pick. Going to try and rebuild through the draft and let the contracts of Nelson and Hedo expire. Cant decide if I want to continue or wait for Bedwardsroy's roster to come out with real draft classes...decisions haha

Same, although I've made my own draft class and I'm trying to tank for Wiggins. I've traded Glen Davis for Mozgov and a 1st Just to get some more size and Draft potential. But I don't think my tanking will succeed b/c Afflalo is having a breakout season through the first 7 or so games at least, averaging about 24 points.

The question is if you want a realistic rebuild or just a stacked rebuild.

Because players like Bledsoe are so overrated. AI would offer you trades that would never happen in real life. I Managed to make the Magic the 4th best team of the east in the second year which I don't see IRL.

I used to overload my teams with great players but now I just try to regulate my trading, signings and just use my mind a bit more rather than impulsively get a big 3.

30 team control baby is the best rebuild anyone could ask for.
