EA/Perks - I appreciate the work that went into organizing this level of detail. It’s impressive.
Dino for a Day:
I AM quite encouraged that Moody is GOING TO start. In particular, NO short guards should be on the floor when we play the Sacramento KINGS. TODAY, the Kings start large guards. YOU can be forgiven for thinking it MIGHT work. But, if you THINK ABOUT IT, you'll realize that Buddy is TOO similar to Steph to start.
