the pleasure is...
...having a great rookie with high expectations sit on the bench and hold towels for his first season
...get everyone hate on you in forums when you suggest something many people don't agree with and laugh about how they take this game serious
...when people start comparing their players to NBA players/ their tactics to NBA team tactics/ themselves with NBA managers and club owners
...see a player which you sold become an important figure in a new team
...play a friendly game against that team you sold a player to, and have your old player get a triple double
...have your center make a three pointer in the last second of the league game, when you were behind two points
...demotion (you get an early pick)
...promotion (money baby)
...telling your boss that you have to leave early from the meeting, because you have a Basketball match with your team LOL
And so much more...
