Waking up in Toronto

[Myles Nelson]

Haha well you guys were bound to win one at some point. Not that you have much talent or anything, but no one deserves to go winless in the Olympics.

GM Notes

A bit of a turbulent month but im still comfortable with what i'm seeing. D-Wade lifted his overall production. Vasillides continues to rebound at a crazy level for a rookie. He's currently 4th in the league for rebounds. It really is a sensational start to his career. We just need to pick up some consistency going into January.

GM Notes

That was such a damging month. Our two key players go down injured for over a month. It couldn't of come at a worse time. It's going to be a struggle to get through the period. The coach had been playing Michal anyway through the injury hence the drop in his numbers. I have now signed Kenyon Martin to fill that slot.

Hopefully we can get them back ASAP and get back on the right road but it's severely dented our playoff hopes.

GM Notes

Well as expected it was a very rough month. Thankfully Michalis will be back early in March and Wade back around the middle. We need them. I have signed Gilbert Arenas to provide a bit more depth. We were always going to struggle with those two going down. Kirilenko has dissapointed me. He was on the trade block but no offers came in. We will look to trade him in the off season without doubt but on his contract it will be tough.

GM Notes

Once Michalis came back we hit a good little run that has kept us in a nervy playoff position. We currently sit 8th. Tied with 9th and 10th. It's going to be a tight run in and we're going to need big games from everyone. Unfortunately D-Wade was back for 2 games before going down injured again. Even if we make the playoffs, it's unlikely he will feature unless we were to pull off a suprise or two.
