Wow. It's crazy to see other peoples players. I can't believe that's all Ortega is. You were getting ripped off by him. The Shot Blocking was nice but damn man.

Yeah, isn't that funny. Ortega's skillset was not out-of-this-world by any means, but I'd say that Gunner got about all out of Ortega as anyone could ask for:-)

its funny. He was top of the line when i bought him season 6.he got cut from the USA nt after my purchase, since i had no desire to train him and caps had just come into play and it was assumed he was near his cap. through about season 8 he still was solid against any center in d2. after that was the decline. his salary was inflated by his shotblocking rating, but he pulls in a ton of merchandise (even with my piece of shit record im still well above average for merchandise)

anyway, its time for him to go while he has some value.

my two best overall players (greer and arreola) won't be for sale. ill etiher mono train pg's or actually train bigs.

and yes, paiva was a failed science experiment.hes still trainable at 22, and could actually be an interesting player if trained right

Hehe, just heard the heavy metal cover of the Gambler song, made famous by good ol' Kenny.

It sounds so wrong.

I'm reminded of the conversation we had when you bought him: (46480.1) I still haven't changed my opinion on SB.

Ok, you're begging me to ask: What the hell were his skills when you bought him?

He looks to have been quite generic.

I don't see prices going up. Don't necessarily see them going down either though.
