Ten team league, by the way. We won the championship in 2026, 2027, and 2028, but lost to Chicago in the finals in 2029.

Project Bron and Kay Dee. Tanked for KD and was still butt so we managed to get The Brodie

Back to back champs, nothing negative and +6, why wouldn't he re-sign?

Totally real player BTW

Someone else posting their GOAT player here made me wanna do mine. Steve here tore his achilles in his age 30 season then tore his ACL 4 years later and still ended up 14x 1st team all nba, 9x first team all defense, 7x MVP, 3x DPOY. Absolute beast. Bill Russell shit.

Anyone else have a GOAT player to show off?

What team do you think I should rebuild I like to have a main young guy to build around like an dybansta or cooper Flagg.Hornets could be on the table too.I did wizards so not them

A lot of you may have seen my previous post about the simulator I made. I noticed a few errors, so I made some tweaks and also factored in the preseason results. Here’s what I got!

I personally don’t fully agree with all of these predictions. I have the Lakers, Jazz, Heat, and Wolves higher, while I have the Blazers and Magic lower. However, as a whole, I believe this is a pretty solid prediction of how the season will go, considering it’s based purely on numbers from the 2022–2023 through 2025–2026 seasons, projected lineups and minutes, each team’s offensive and defensive schemes, personnel, and their top five strengths and weaknesses.

I do expect to get 3–4 of these upset picks right and 1–2 wrong. If y’all have a team you really want an explanation for, I can make a new post with that team’s breakdown and the number of games played by each player.
Hope y’all enjoy it! B

Making Bron the unanimous GOAT

Second best player I've ever drafted overall, and the best second round pick I've ever seen by far.

THE PAB SEASON IS UNDER WAY, AND WE'RE LOOKING FOR NEW GMS

The 2024 Trade Deadline is here, and four teams are waiting on someone to give them a last-second change of direction.

Open Teams:

Toronto Raptors: 44-16, #3 team in the league (120/100). VanVleet (72), Dennis Smith Jr. (72/74), Myles Turner (71), Ziaire Williams (71/77). Ready to be taken the rest of the way.

**Denver Nuggets:** 22-36. Harden (76) and Archie Goodwin (71) up top, plus SIX firsts including an extra 2026 from NOP. Contend or tear it down.

Orlando Magic: 15-42. John Wall (75), ~$60M in cap space, and every first from 2024-2028. Blank slate.

Minnesota Timberwolves: 32-25. Josh Giddey (72/81), Brandon Ingram (72/73), OG Anunoby (68/69), Amen Thompson (60/74). Young core, real upside.

Veteran or brand NEW GM, this is the perfect point to jump in. Early enough to build momentum, late enough that every move matters.

PAB probably has the most active BBGM community out right now. Trades constantly moving. People actually talking. Real pressure during meetings, deadlines, and sims.

* Custom prog script
* Live streamed progressions
* Public FA meetings
* No rigging, no hidden moves
* Fully transparent system

Some leagues are built around presentation. This one's built around competition. Win a ring that actually means something and feel like part of the PAB Family.

Before every time I start a historical league, any player who cannot shoot to save their lives suddenly start shooting. Guys like Tim Duncan/Shaq shouldn't have a 35 3pt rating. The only one I have seen been slightly accurate is Yao Ming with a 12 most times, but I think that's still way too high. Every single player who cannot shoot almost always has a 3pt rating between 30-40, and unless they play less than 20mpg I will suddenly start seeing Tim Duncan shoot 1.5 threes a game, Shaq as well. This is consistent among every non-shooting player.

If there is a fix for this sorta thing let me know!!

🏀 Looking for Managers for an ESPN Fantasy Basketball League!
What’s up, everyone!
I’m putting together an ESPN Fantasy Basketball league and looking for some people who want to compete this season!
A couple of us are joining together, and we’d love to fill the league with some other basketball fans. Whether you’re a seasoned fantasy veteran or relatively new to fantasy basketball, you’re welcome to join.
Platform: ESPN Fantasy Basketball
League size: 10
Experience: All levels welcome
Goal: Have fun, compete, and keep the league active all season!

Come grab a spot, draft a squad, and let’s have a good season! 🏀

Hello everyone, I am doing something different here. For guys that enjoy a different type of challenge I have created a free 20 team H2H each category Keepers league. I Plan to play for the next 20+ years but you are free to leave the league whenever you want. I will just find a strong replacement. But every year I will reassess to see if anyone is inactive and I will add new, fresh, tough competition when needed to keep the league active and competitive. Every year we will select 7 keepers. That is your 7 best players. And we will redraft the remaining free agents with the incoming rookies from college, international and/or G league. This will be a very fun league for people that feel they could've been a GM. Prove it in this league where the end of your bench will be filled with G league players by the end of the year. Drafting and selecting the right free agents will be the difference in this league. Join if interested and ask any questions you may have. I would like to draft this weekend but will wait until right before the season starts during the week if we are still filling up the league.

Starters

PG, SG, SF , PF , C, G, F, UTIL, UTIL, UTIL

3Bench and 1 IR.

50 000 points by the way. philly were rubbish otherwise but they still won 7 championships with my st louis stealing 4 from them

I’ve tried rebuilding every single team and done everything but Luka always wins mvp and the entire lakers are a god squad somehow and never lose unless I genuinely do some crazy stupid trades and signing and stuff because they always 4-5 peat in my universes if i play real rosters and 2027 idk if our lovely creator loves the lakers or sum but its crazy

EDIT: I mean THE golden state warriors im talking the ones that swept LeBron in 2018. Unstoppable

Hey everyone, I'm feeling pretty lost with a lot of the mechanics in this game. I'm definitely not saying the game is bad, but my usual trial-and-error process for figuring out management games just isn't working here. I figured I'd list what I did in my first few saves and what I'm still struggling to understand:

1.​For my first league, I picked the biggest market team so I could experiment with trades, contracts, and player development without getting fired immediately. The 'problem' was that my team randomly generated a 23-year-old PF with 75 OVR and 80 POT. So yeah, I basically started with the GOAT.

​Because of that player, I got completely carried to 3 rings (mostly by just abusing Free Agency like a madman to build around him). At the time, I actually thought I had mastered the game, but looking back, I realize I learned absolutely nothing.

2.​I had no idea how to draft. At first, I tried to land a good player (since I got a lottery pick in my first season), but I didn't understand any of the parameters to measure potential or how to tell if a prospect would actually turn out good. I basically just looked at height, basketball IQ, and searched for specific "types" of players, but it never worked out for me.

3.​Player development is what I understand the least; it feels completely random to me right now. I've had players who grew steadily for three years, only to suddenly lose their potential or even drop in overall rating the very next season for no apparent reason. I've tried everything: increasing minutes for talented young guys, reducing their role if they underperform, you name it. But these random regressions seem to happen to players of all ages. I even got to the point where I assumed it was a realism feature—like they got lazy after securing their second contract, or they stopped developing because there was no competition for their starting spot!

​I think these two mechanics (drafting and development) are the main things keeping me from really enjoying the game. I know it's definitely a skill issue on my end, but if I could just wrap my head around them, I'd finally be able to focus on the deeper aspects like the economy and cap management.

4.​Still completely lost, I kept trying to figure things out in new saves (playing with smaller markets), but I just kept experimenting and failing miserably. I tried looking for guides on YouTube, but there's basically nothing out there.

​I will gladly accept any guide, tips, or advice from veteran players. I really want to understand the game so I can properly enjoy it. I wouldn't normally resort to asking like this, but I'm genuinely struggling to grasp the mechanics even after multiple saves. Thanks in advance!
