Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

Im about to start my franchise soon,
Cant wait....
Going to try and develop Randolph and also look at some more scorers in the draft and free agency

[ehh]

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

What the hell is up with his shot anyway (Walker's)? Every time I spot up with him, I forget that he does this weird sort of chuck that I never time right and I always horribly clank it.

Yeah it's just horrible. The Knicks stay getting done dirty in NBA2K.

When it's all said and done I think Amare is the only guy who's default sig shot will stay. Chandler, Gallo, Azubuike, Rautins, Walker & Felton are way off. TD is okay but I'll probably look for a better one.

Funny that Roger Mason Jr's shot is dead on though, one of the best in the entire game.

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

ehh,

Could you post your playbook when you get a chance? One of my favorites is the 14-Fade w/Felton and Amar'e. That play led to the game-winning basket in my exhibition win over Chicago last night. Took Boozer 1-on-1, crossed him up and dunked it in his face. Sweet.

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

just a heads up to everyone in case you didn't know

if you schedule a practice, it reduces player trade values to 1 star

I learned this the hard way

I need to finish it still. I added a play for Amare to get an iso at the elbow since that was sorely needed. I gave AR a new set since he only had 34 Roll for all four plays, he is so lethal when he actually has plays. Gave 41 Roll to TD and haven't looked at the SG position yet.

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

I've been studying Amare's hot spots on the court and now I've gotten 3 double doubles with him with 31 points and 15 rebounds being my best. I was playing on all-star, 12min quarters against the Nets but I still lost by 9.

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

Anyone effectively using Turiaf? I'm happy with him off the bench because he rebounds and blocks, but is totally useless on offense.

With Mosgov hot on his tail, I'm starting Randolph at C and think that by mid year will be putting Mosgov as the primary backup.

Curry and Felton are gone, replaced with Arenas.

If Mosgov continues to climb, I'll be looking to trade Turiaf in the offseason in order to make a good run at Carmelo. Allowing Chandler + Azubuike to sign elsewhere if they want too much. So far I can definitely see that my knicks (In my association) will probably make the tail end of the playoffs, and may put up a fight in the 1st round. But next year, if I can add Carmelo.....we'll be a sure fire contender.

Anyone made it through to the offseason and added Melo? If so, how did your Knicks roster change for 2011/2012 in association?

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

Tried to get Gallo to run the play quick but as you can see I just had to throw it up. I can't believe Felton drained it from a couple steps beyond the line.

Currently I'm 2-4 with the Knicks and having troubles on defense. Offensively I need to be more efficient and not turn it over as often.

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

Started my Knicks franchise today. No initial changes, gonna play the cards that has been given to me for at least the first quarter of the season, if injuries doesn't come around.

My starting lineup for the first games:
PG - Felton
SG - Gallo
SF - Chandler
PF - Amare
C - Randolph

Currently 3-5. AR is playing great at C, Double-double almost every game. Amare is also doing a great job, top scorer so far, with Gallo shooting like expected. But got 2 serious problems: TOURNOVERS and our awful DEFENSE!!. We suck on the perimetrer, got destroyed by the Celtics and the Warriors. Have to improve moving the ball around, as many tournovers are commited while running plays and throwing passes to covered players.
Sure will improve that record once i get more care of the ball.

Overall, is gonna be a great season. Gonna try to get rid of Curry and Felton to get some cap room too.

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

Here's a trade I just had go through:

Knicks (2-4, not looking so great this year in a 29-gm season)

- C Ronny Turiaf (66) | 1-yr @ $4.10M (Player option for 2012)
- SG Roger Mason Jr. (68) | 1-yr @ $1.35M
- SF C.J. Miles (61) | 1-yr @ $3.70M
- '12 2nd round pick

Thunder (4-2, looking like they need some veteran depth to help in the post season)

- C Nenad Krstic (59) | 1-yr @ $5.80M
- SG Daequan Cook (59) | 1-yr @ $2.17M
- '11 1st round pick (Right now projecting #20 or higher)

Knicks outlook:

Playoffs are unlikely this season and I will look to develop young guys (Mozgov) and others. I want to get some assets for the draft so I can try to move up to get a young stud.

Thunder outlook:

They are looking to be a contender. They have Harden at the 2 with Sefalosha as a backup. Mason Jr. is an upgrade and has that playoff experience. Then at center they are young with Aldrich. Turiaf gives them another vet with plenty of experience and he's a big upgrade of Krstic.

They give up their 1st rounder but they already have the pieces they need, development is all they need.

Why are people not a fan of Felton? He's young and a really good distributor PG that would thrive in the offense plus he gets to the rack. His contract isn't even that bad!


Here's my new depth chart

PG: Felton
SG: Chandler
SF: Gallinari
PF: Amar'e
C: Mozgov

G: Douglas
G/F: Walker
SG: Rautins
SF: Fields
F: Randolph
C: Curry

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

I lost 102-90 in my 3rd game to the Blazers. It was close then Roy hit a pass half court shot to put them up by 8 in the 4th, and I couldn't come back despite getting close a couple time sin the 4th. I shoot like 56%, but got destroyed on the broads allowing 12 offense broads and having 19 turnovers which killed me. I like how I am competing with Amare out and once he comes back we should get going! My once mistake was giving Eddy Curry minutes for his inside scoring instead of turiaf for defense and rebounding against a big team.

Re: NEW YORK KNICKS Franchise users!

still mad about buike's shot release, as every 3 I shoot with him is short, any 1 know what I should change him to
