theJ Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 The Finals are against the Trail Blazers. First time that i can remember playing Kevin Durant in the playoffs. He's 34 now. Trail Blazers Pos Player OVR PG Uros Sebic 90 SG Demar Derozan 84 SF Kevin Durant 94 PF Dejuan Blair 64 C Chucky Green 80 6th Isaac Steele (SG) 77 The matchup i can really exploit is Gerald Gatson. He needs to go off in this series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 Game 1 and Marty is the hero! Incredible game. Had 3 steals and a block to go along with that line.

theJ Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 From my phone: Dale Burke is still out for 4-6 months. In this game the injuries carry over from season to season, so he might miss the first 1-2 months of next season. Which probably means I'm going to be transitioning from him to Gatson as the primary scorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 Let's finish this thing! Game 2 regression, but i consider a positive that I seemed to be able to control the pace of the game and keep it low scoring.

theJ Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 I'm going to move Vin Hill to SF for game 3 in an effort to control Kevin Durant. He's an exceptional defender, even in the paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 Well that did not work as intended, but i was able to get the win anyway. I'm going to leave it though, because Bernard Hughes (former 6 man, fill in for Burke), had a great 21 pt, 11 ast game from the SG position.
