Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Well, i decided to trash my MIN 'chise and started with the Toronto Raptors!
[TOR year 1/All-Star/82gm/10min]

First order of business was to make a few minor trades.
TOR Reggie Evans >>> SAC Donte Greene
TOR Ed Davis,'12 1st rnd,'11 2nd rnd >>> NY Randolph

First game beat NY 113-106, then CLE 101-85. Using Bayless as my starting PG because he's easy to use, and maybe Calderon will give me a reason to trade him later in the year.

PG Bayless | Calderon
SG Barbosa | Weems
SF Derozan | Donte Greene | Julian Wright | Peja | Kleiza
PF A.Randolph | Amir Johnson | J.Dorsey
C Bargnani | D.Anderson

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Lost to the celtics in the semi finals and now off to off season, z retired finally

Resigned luke ridnour for waive fee, Resigned jerry baydless also.

Clippers pick was projected for 7 and i got lucky and got 3rd. my pick also projected at 30 got 27

I wanted to lose some cap room to make space my free agent so i put udonis haslem up and jeremy lin on trade block and i got the bucks offering me

chris douglas robert 1st round and 2nd pick

Yeah i am going to lose 2 pg's but jerry bayless is now ready to start and if anything i can make a splash in fa the pg position

The bucks have the 11th pick and since i already had 3 sf's i put chris douglas on the trading block and spurs offered me tiago splitter and 1st round for chris douglas and 2nd round bucks pick

I took it because since i traded haslem away i have no back up pf for bosh. Plus it came with a first rounder pick 19th.

Put all 3 picks up and pistons offered me 2nd pick for all 3 picks plus deandre jordan, i was a bit hesitant because deandre was my project developed backup for thabeet but for the 2nd pick why not right.


After doing the draft i got a bad *** pf and bad *** pg.

But then this **** just go to rigged.

Im thinking trashing it and trying a cavs roster and reviving them. I think ill try it now

I'm thinking trashing it and trying a cavs roster and reviving them. I think ill try it now

Yeah, quite frustrating at times but gets you pumped up if you get a win against a marquee team, specially if you don't mess up their lineup big time.

[mistamike]

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Started the new cavs, Did a few things though

Traded a little but i got rid of players who i taught was a hindrance to rebuilding.

Traded with the bulls, grizzlies, twolves and the raptors

Final Roster I had

Pg - Mo williams, Cj watson, Rafer alston
Sg - Cory brewer, anthony parker, alonzo gee
Sf - Thaddeus young, Kyle korver, Julian wright
Pf - Anthony Jamison, JJ hickson, Leon Powe
C - Anderson Varejao, Kurt Thomas, Hasheem Thabeet

I dont have my both my 2nd round picks but i came up with this roster. +ra[tors 2nd rounder

Thinking of getting rid of kyle korver and leon powe though.

[mistamike]

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Lost miserably the first season, it was just a joke. I simmed it all and i tanked hard.

Offseason i got a top10 pick, #8

Resigned who i could and decided to blow up this roster. This roster blew hard, got rid of the majority, decided to keep hickson, varejao, thabeet, thaddeus, cory brewer , and anthony parker. Also traded #8 pick and my next year picks with 2nd drafts

Managed to snag the first round first pick and the 7th pick, also traded jose calderon and jerry baydless

[mistamike]

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

drafted a sg 1st pick konrad vernie 77 rating 3 point shooter b- potential

and my 7th pick was byron terry sf all around player 73 rating b- potential

Also signed andre miller for 1.3 mill and signed delonte west for 4.4 mill
and alonzo gee accepted my 1 year qualifiying offer.

My roster looks like this now
Pg - Delonte West, Andre miller, Jose Calderon, Jerryd bayless
sg - Kyle verine, cory brewer, alonzo gee, anthony parker
sf - Thaddeus young, byron terry
Pf - Lamar Odom, JJ hickson
C - Anderson Varejao, Thabeet

Thinking i need to get rid of 2 guards looking around for a trade my roster stands at 14.

Kyle korver got waived , jarvis hayes, and tony allen, nick collison as well

Thinking of adding them one of them later, maybe korver or collison.

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

I'm 8-2 in Year 2 of my Suns Association. I guess my record is a bit deceiving though, as I've only played two teams with winning records, so far(San Antonio & Sacramento). The funny thing is I beat those two teams. The teams that I lost to are New York (5-5) and Denver (4-6).

Rashard Lewis has been a huge upgrade over Grant Hill. Also, Rookie Tyler Honeycutt has been playing pretty well. I know it's early but, as long as everyone stays healthy (most notably Nash and VC) I think we may have a shot.

[mistamike]

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Ended up trading, Delonte west, Andre miller, Alonzo Gee and varejao

to the spurs

for Manu Ginobli and Tiago Splitter and 1st rounder.

I lose my starting big man, but i get a scorer with manu and a young pf, with there 1st rounder.

Signed jarvis hayes and kyle korver for waive fee

and put anthony parker and thaddeus young on trading block looking for a big man and celtics offered me this

Anthony Parker, Thaddeus young and jarvis hayes

for

Glen Davis and Shaquille Oneal.

The moment i saw this i took it right away. Why? This would totally fix my big man void. Although i lose a corner stone piece with thaddeus young.
I do add 2 big presences in my team. 1 young and full of potential, the other old but still has some presence

This is my final roster for this season

Pg - Jose Calderon, Jerryd Bayless
Sg - Manu Ginobli, Kyle Vernie, Cory Brewer
Sf - Byron Terry (rookie), Kyle Korver
Pf - Lamar Odom, Glen Davis, Jj hickson, Tiago Splitter
C - Shaquille Oneal, Hasheem Thabeet

I was thinking of putting lamar odom back to sf and making him start over byron. So that way glen davis starts with shaq and jj hickson can be my 6th man again.

Jj hickson as a 6th man role owns, he won sixth man of the year for me and most improved player last season


What you guys think? Does this look championship material

[mistamike]

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Allstar break manu made it but got injured in the game, Shaq got injured on a reg game as well. Both out 6-8 weeks >.<

Ill be lucky now if i make playoffs

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

So i ended up fighting for the 8th spot in the east and i made it. Played the knicks first round. Lost the first 2 games, then manu ginobli came back from injury and i ended up beating the knicks 2 - 4.

Then met up with the heat. Wade beat me with a 3 in game 4 that sent it to tie to 2 - 2. Next 2 games i decided to sim and beat the heat on those 2.

Played the bulls in the east finals and swept them 4-0.

Funny thing too shaq is injured so i have only 1 center, and the fact is my team chemistry have only been in the 40-50s the whole season. Yet im doing good in playoffs

playing the lakers in finals. Ill let u guys know what sup when its done

[winrehs_ipang]

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Currently at 5-2 after beating the Bulls, 99-87.

[FearOfTheDeer6]

Re: How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Am 3-4 and 11th in the east with the Wizards.
Made some big trades so far. I offered Lewis, Yi and a 1st rounder for J Rich and Turkoglu. In my second game it was close to Half time against the hawks and John Wall was on fire with 18 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds.
On a drive John Wall got injured and was out 1-2 weeks. I ended up losing that game although it was very close but Jamal Crawford hit 4 threes in the last minute and i lost by eight points. Kobe and Wall were named players of the week. Now i had to work around Richardson. In my next game against 76ers J Rich had a big day with a massive 48 points. We ended up getting the close win after 76ers came back from 19 points.
Hedo had a very quiet game while Hayward had a big one. So for the time being, my starting lineup was...

Hinrich
Richardson
Hayward
Aminu
Blatche

We ended up winning games against Cavs and Bobcats and losing games against New York and Houston. In this period, J Rich got a Triple Double and became player of the week. (And kobe is out for 6 weeks (: ) I made a move gaining Big Z and Haslem for Howard and a draft pick. My next game is against the bulls. John Wall is due back next game but for the past 2 weeks my lineup was...

1. Hinrich/Young
2. Richardson/Young
3. Hayward/Aminu/Turkoglu
4. Aminu/Haslem/Adams(D-League
5. Big Z/Blatche/McGee
