1- How long have you been doing Sim?
Very on and off for the past 3-5 years. I don't even remember the names of the leagues that I was part of. Some names that I recall are Ahsan, Svedda, Sargo. I forgot how I found this league, but I know that I have not seen most of the guys in this league before lol. Probably most peeps are old school fbb players who know the system well more than me.
2- How do you feel your team is set up for this year? Future?
To be honest, my team is around Vernon and Rui hachimura. Rui has already hit his peak currently, but I could see my team going two ways based on how Vernon has been doing. His defense has been steadily improving, but his offense has stayed stagnant. I feel he is borderline in inside and always had a meh TC in that department. When he's coached, he gets back to B+. Good thing is that I have all my picks and I can go either way on trying to compete vs tank. I feel tanking is the right way but I won't just trade Gobert, Vernon, Rui for meh specs and meh picks.
3- Can anyone Beat the LAC in the West this season?
Spurs come to my mind. After seeing Embiid single-handedly bring the Magic from last league to the finals, I can see that happening. They also have Harden and AD who are just as good as Embiid and I could see Spurs beating any team as long as they stay injury free
4- Whats your draft strategy now that there is no Scouts?
I do what most people probably do... sort out by the different ratings and based on the position I give them a rough ranking. Also, I look for positional need vs best player available and make my decision. Age isn't a big factor for me unless I'm looking at either a really high pick or later in the draft because they will usually have lower baseline rating with high ceiling. I value players who can contribute right now.
5- Who is your MVP? GMOTY? and ROY?
MVP: 1. Giannis comes to my mind. I believe it is easier to get big numbers from a PG based on how fbb works. But Giannis is the type of player who can player 3,4 and put up big numbers. He can play offense, defense and distribute the ball. I think he's the most well-rounded player.
2. R.J Barrett is still only 23 and the clear fbb MVP imo. His ratings at this age is already at a MVP level and the scary part is he still can get better.
GMOTY: Clippers has my vote. Cloud always impresses in his ability to manage his team both in terms of talent and financial flexibility. He take the right risks. He currently has a team that's built to compete this year and years to come as he will likely CB Middleton to make cap.
ROY: Scottie Pippen Jr. Rookie who has led his team to the playoffs.
Lets get to know you
6- Who are you and what do you do?
Born in Korea but currently in the United States. Lived here for 10+ yrs now. I am currently residing in the west coast and I am a resident working somewhere in the west coast lol. That's one of the reasons why I've been busy and less active in the website from time to time.
7- There was a poll recentely about Steak, so lets take it a step further Bake potatoe, Au Gratin or mashed potatoes next to that steak? and what else on them Potatos?
Steak is medium rare or bust. I don't like mashed potatoes lol, so either baked potatoes or au gratin would be choice. I'll take the traditional baked potato with butter, sour scream cheddar cheese, sliced bacon and green onions.
8- Favorite Team/s and Sport/s?
All the Boston teams are my favorite. One sport that I most closely follow are the Celtics because that's the team I was first introduced to when I moved to the States. My favorite sports and Tennis and Golf though. Tennis is a sport I've played until highschool and golf is something I want to pick up on.
9- Favorite go to restaurant on a night out? What is your go to dish there?
If I'm with a group of friends, kbbq is by far my favorite. AYCE or not, I always have a good time. Go to piece of meat would be brisket. If I'm on a date, I'd pick sushi or mexican place. Salmon and squid sushi are my favs. If I were to go to a Mexican restaurant, Al Pastor taco would be my go to dish.
10- Is Donkey ready for the big City and the big Pressure? What advice would you give him?
I forgot where Donkey is going lol.. I remember him talking about NYC? I'd say enjoy the life because I just moved to a new city myself and as busy as my life has been, I've been active about making new friends and going out even on days that I want to rest. New job/opportunity will be exciting for Donkey so I wish him the best of luck!
