Ok i dont know really how good im going to be next year but im hoping for a drastic improvement. How much improvement. Well im predicting that I will make the Eastern Con Playoffs. Not really sure what a good bet amount would be but im willing to listen to offers. i think ill cap the betting at me risking like 5 or 6 total ATCs on this... So basically im looking for one or two managers that dont think my roster moves will get me into the playoffs and are thusly willing to risk 1 or 2 or 3 or so ATCs on this bet.... id love to see more then one manager with little faith in my team so ill try not to let ONE manager take up all 5 or 6 ATCs im willing to risk..... ANY TAKERS LET ME KNOW

I'd be willing to bet 2-3 atc's on if you make the playoffs just to partake in the ATC betting.

i know you always try to play the role of the underdog and always think everyone is doubting you. its nothing personal, but why not up the ante. fact of the matter is you have the most atc, signed best fa and had first pick. i dont even know how this can be a bet. it would be really bad if you DIDNT make the playoffs.

A more interesting bet would be how high you finish in your conference or how far you go in the playoffs.
As I agree, it is a sucker's bet to bet against this team.

I know it is a sucker bet... that is why I was only saying 2-3 atc... I much rather bet on the over under for what position in the conference he finishes in. Also, I still think other teams in East are good and if I nearly missed the playoffs with Wade and Kobe then anything is possible

Also, I still think other teams in East are good and if I nearly missed the playoffs with Wade and Kobe then anything is possible You got Wade in the middle of the season and Kobe was hurt half the year. If you want to throw away some ATCs then I can bet you that I win more games this year.

Jazz you know me tooo well calling out the sucker bet.... i hope it is a sucker bet but i dont know if it is.... Yes ive made big moves but that doesnt stop the fact that IM YOUNG and THE EAST IS PRETTY DECENT.... I was the worst team in the league and i like the moves ive made. thus me willing to bet.... No im not ready to STEP IT UP... im not ready to bet where i finished... and not willing to bet more ATCS... Lakers ill give you the right to refusal since all this talk but im game for going 3 with you just to keep things a bit more interesting this season.... just say you agree to betting 3 or two... either way i accept bet with you.

You can dress up a pig anyway you want and it is still a pig.
Its a sucker's bet.
Your team on paper can now match with anyone but the top 3-4 teams in the East so I don't see how without odds this bet can be fun.
I was the second worst team in the league and there is no way I don't think I will get better this year and I didn't sign a Brand or have 100 ATCs to spend.

Well, I don't think they're right after the top 4 in the East, quite frankly.
I'm not that impressed with Lawson, Pargo, Aminu, or Lopez at the present time. I know that TC and ATC's could change the picture a LOT for the Pistons. I also do not underestimate the power of having a star PF like Brand...
If they don't strike gold in Training Camp, I'd probably be willing to take this bet, as I see some of their players as rather average until they reach more of their potential.

You struck gold in training camp...doesn't always happen, but now you have a playoff team. Not even close to a bet.
