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

I'm about to start a 76ers chise.

Here are a few of my goals.

Play all 29 games, haven't decided on which sliders i'm going to use.

- Get 8th Seed or higher in my first year.
- Develop Jrue Holiday
- In the off season pick up some key pieces, trade away unnecessary contracts.
- Have Fun.
- The most important one of all, be realistic.

Let's see if i can achieve these goals.

I think there's definitely a reasonable base there, so good luck!

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

You know what, that's what i'm debating on.

I really want to do 29, mainly because i can probably finish it in time. Once i think about it, it doesn't look right or seem realistic when the games don't add up to 82 games, so i don't know guys. 29, or 82? If i do 82, i doubt i'll finish the season in a month, how long you think it will take?

Also, i'm the type of person who loves to do off season moves, so i don't want to waste my time playing all these games when i want to go in the off season and develop my team deeper.

A lot of people on here play 29 and sim the other 29 or 53. I play 29 and just play all of them.

Be glad that it's not baseball that's all I'm saying! Some people play 162 games in The Show. I've got MLB 10 and I've played probably 75-80 games in a year. That's why I want to keep '10 and wait for '12, so I can maybe finish a season if I get back into it.

I'll sim 53 games, then play the rest, thanks man.

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

Alright, i've decided that i'll sim 53 games, and play 29.

Still the same goals, a few adjustments.

Get 7th seed in East
Develop Jrue Holiday
Get rid of bad contracts, try to find some good players in off season FA.
Spencer Hawes should start or not? Is he worthy of being a starting C in the NBA?

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

I think imma try to trade Josh Smith and Krik Hendrick for Darren Williams, should I do this?

My starting five would be

1. Darren Williams
2. Joe Johnson
3. Fariq Aminu
4. Al Horford
5. De'Andre Jordan

What do you think about that squad!

IRL, NJ wouldn't trade Deron Williams b/c Humphries is a good rebounder [thus wouldn't need Smith] and Hinrich is just an avg PG[really a SG]. For ATL, i like how Jordan is allowing Horford to play nis natural position PF. All in all the team improved and will likely be top 3 in the EC.

Yea you are right, they wanted too much, the wanted them plus Al Horford and a 1st rd! So I just put J. Smith on the bench, made him 6th man, and started De'Andre Jordan at C, and Al Horford at PF, and I also started Jamal Crawford at pg, made Hinrich at a role player. And I must say that lineup is a beast! Hordord is a beast at PF, I broke my 5 game loosing streak with that line up, hopefully we can go on a winnng streak.

I would've put Josh Smith at SF and make Aminu a role player. that would be a sick lineup.

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

Well, deleted my association and started on with the Suns. Our last game we beat the Lakers by 10 mainly because Carter was on fire (39 points) and Gortat was just out rebounding Bynum. But Carter is pretty inconsistent with a huge contract so should I trade him? Didn't make any trades yet but I'm thinking on trading Frye for more of an inside presence?

I Know! But I cant shoot 3's with Smith for nothing and he has a 76 3pt rating, but I have never hit a 3 with him. But any ways he is old news now since I put him on the bench he wanted to be traded, so I traded him and Hinrich to the Trail Blazers for Odom and Gerald Wallace!!! New Starting lineup....

1. Jamal Crawford
2. Joe Johnson
3. Gerald Wallace
4. AL Horford
5. De'Andre Jordan

6. Greg Odom
7. Aminu

And imma sign Skip2myLue as a back up point guard.

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

Its been awhile since I updated. But I am playing with the Rockets and this is my first season still. I am playing with the old rosters. I made some trades. The trades I made were this: Traded Chuck Hayes for the Cavs '11 1st round pick. Traded Brad Miller '12 1st round pick for Thunder Daequan Cook and '11 1st round pick. Traded Kyle Lowry, Shane Battier, Thunders '11 1st round pick for The Bobcats Gerald Wallace and Kwame Brown. Sign PG Antonio Daniels for 1 year. With that been said my roster look like this:
Starting 5
PG-Aaron Brooks
SG-Kevin Martin
SF-Gerald Wallace
PF-Luis Scola
C-Yao Ming
Bench
Antonio Daniels
Courtney Lee
Jermaine Taylor
Chase Budinger
Patrick Patterson
Jared Jeffries
Jordan Hill
Res.
Daequan Cook
Kwame Brown

Right now we are on a 23 game winning streak with a record of 55-17 and 1st in the West and tied with the Heat(thats who we play next) for the best record in the NBA. The Lakers are 3 games behinds us. With 10 games left in the season. After I made the trade for Wallace I realized that he was the missing key for my team. Let me know what yall think. Overall I am happy with my team.
