How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

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

After a few trades my bulls team looks like this.

PG: Derrick Rose, Jonnero Pargo
SG: Tyreke Evens, Kellena Auziubke, Keith Bogans, Ronnie Brewer
SF: Hedo Turkoglu, Kyle Korver, Rasual Butler, Jarvis Hayes
PF: Taj Gibson
C: Joakim Noah, Samuel Dalembert

Who should i try to get through trades to improve my team (give me realistic people to get please.)

May I ask who you gave up to get Tyreke? In real life the Kings would never give him up unless they got a star in return and unless you did a 3 team deal, that doesn't seem to be the case.

Kings Got
Carlos Boozer
Loul Deng
2011 1st round draft pick
2012 1st round draft pick

Bulls Got
Tyreke Evans
Samuel Dalemert

Not that realistic but i gave up as much as i could to try and make it fair within the salary cap.

Maybe You should go for A Backup PF? If a Team has 2 or less PF's then don't do it or they will ask for A PF in Return. If you see a Team Which is Good in Depth, Then try and Take One of their PFs For Azabuike and a Pick. The Rest of your team has good Depth. Pargo doesnt really matter because Rose will probably get almost the Full 48. And you should also Trade Samuel Dalembert. He's getting old and some teams may get desperate at C So There is some Trades you can get from that. And also try For Rookies who are 67's or above. Because Rookies have Great Potential which could turn an overall from a 67, to a 77, in about 2 years. I hope I helped in some way!

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

Well I was able to defeat the Lakers at home to clinch the top seed in the West with 2 games remaining. I decided to just simulate the last 2 meaningless games but I lowered all my starters' minutes to around 20 just to avoid any freak injuries. The Kings will look to win their first championship since 1951 when they were the Rochester Royals. We will be facing the 8th seeded T'Wolves in the 1st round.

Their current lineup:

PG: Flynn (79)/ Marquis Teague (66)*
SG: Johnson (78)/ Ellington (66)
SF: Beasley (82)/ Hayward (67)
PF: Hickson (77)/ Ilyasova (70)
C: Valanciunas (73)/ Hawes (71)

*Rookie

We will see if the 1st Team All-Defense star Wesley Johnson can contain our superstar Tyreke Evans. None of their frontcourt players have good post defense so I expect Cousins and Love to have a great series against his former team. Neither team has much playoff experience. This is actually my first time playing in the playoffs offline on 2k11. I expect to take the series in 5 or 6 games.

Your gonna win in 5 Games. Kevin Love and Wesley cant stop Cousins and Tyreke.

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

Wesley is an awesome defender in this game, don't underestimate that guy. I would advise giving Tyreke a few minutes at PG maybe to get some easy buckets/create a mis-match.

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

Just lost my second game this season to Miami, and third straight loss overall, and now sit at 21-11 with my 1990-91 LA Lakers in my custom Association. We are only 1 game out of the top spot in the West, but things are tight between my team, the Spurs, Thunder, Mavs and current-day Lakers. Playing a 58-game season, so things should be interesting down the stretch.

[Sammidysam]

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

I was thinking of playing 5 games, then simming 5 games, and doing that over and over, just so that I don't have to play as much. So far, though, I'm 4-0 with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

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

I just started an association with the Utah jazz and I'm trying to bring them back to their glory days. I decided to sim the first season and then actually start playing the games next season. Halfway through simming the 1st season, I completely forgot about making sure that my players were happy and now derrick favors and mehmet okur want to be traded.... . So... I went to the trade finder to see what I could get for them, I have a huge need at SG (my only sg is raja bell) and I've been scouting out potential draftees at the SG/SF and PF/C spots. Right now my team is 4-13 so I believe I will end up with a high draft pick (29 game season).

So, anyway the trade finder came up with some interesting results. I picked a few out, what do you guys think?

1. Okur, Favors, Millsap for Tyreke Evans

2. Okur, Favors, 2012 1st round for Andre Igoudala

3. Okur, Favors, Millsap for Caron Butler, Jason Terry (very interesting)

4. Okur, Favors for Anthony Randolph, Wesley Johnson

5. Okur, Favors, 2011 1st round for Monta Ellis, Al Thornton

What do you guys think would be the best trade for me?

Kirilenko is currently out for the rest of the season and I'm hoping to try and pick up either kanter or valaciuenas in the upcoming draft unless I dont solve my problem at SG.

My current roster looks like this:

PG: Devin Harris, E. Watson, R. Price
SG: Raja Bell
SF: Kirilenko (out for season), CJ Miles, G. Hayward
PF: Millsap, Favors, (some random pf)
C: Al Jefferson, M. Okur, (I also have 2 nobody centers but can't remember their names)

Sorry for the long post. Thanks to anybody that can help me out

Accepting the Terry Trade would be Stupid. I'm sorry, But him and Caron Butler are OLD Players. Who will Leave the League in 5 or 6 Years in the Game. One Trade that seemed OK was the Tyreke Evans Trade. All you would have to do then is get A PF out of the Draft. And those NOBODY'S May Have Good Potential. So Do Intense practice with them to make them a Good Backup For Jefferson.
I'd Rather have A Great Starting Lineup and a Mediocre Bench, Then an OK Starting Lineup And A OK Bench.

So I would Take Tyreke for sure. Hes now an 91 After 2 years on my Kings team. Hope I Helped.

Thanks for the quick response! Yeah the only thing that was holding me back from accepting the Terry/Butler trade was the face that they are older. I think I'm going to accept tyreke and try and pick up a good pf in the draft! Hopefully it'll be kanter.

Well I protected our home court and I'm now up 2-0 going to Minnesota so it's looking good so far. Also Kevin Love is actually on my team now ha. I signed him in Free Agency this past offseason. They haven't been able to stop our Love/Cousins frontcourt so far and Love is actually leading us in scoring in the series at 20 ppg.

Wesley is an awesome defender in this game, don't underestimate that guy. I would advise giving Tyreke a few minutes at PG maybe to get some easy buckets/create a mis-match.

You were right about this one. Evans struggled in game 1 scoring just 12 points on 5-16 shooting. I usually give him about 6-8 minutes per game at point guard because he is easily our best ball handler and passer. He bounced back with a terrific game 2, with 22 points and 14 assists shooting 10-17.

Another guy that has really stepped up so far is Thaddeus Young. He has had Michael Beasley (54 on ball d) guarding him most of the game and Young is just way too quick for him. This is why I really like my team right now because anyone of my starters can go for 20. Evans can have a bad game and we can still win because we have so many options of offense. Hopefully I can go win both games in Minnesota and get ready for either the Thunder or the Hornets.

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

Wow I am so lucky lol. I was projected to get the 4th pick in the lottery and had an 11% at the number 1 pick. The lottery starts and I end up getting the #1 and New Orleans (proj. #1) ends up with the #5! I have a huge need at PF but I don't know if I should pick Enes Kanter or Derrick Williams because I believe that Williams is the best overall player but Kanter always turns out really well. I think I'm going to go with Kanter.

Haha, nice going man. I just come off an impressive victory by 6 against the Spurs in my Grizzlies chise. Nolan Smith provided a huge spark off the bench going for 20 points and 4 assists in 24 mins, he's such an awesome back up PG for Conley!

Nice man. It kind of felt weird at first playing with the Kings and not the Grizzlies in mine but the Grizzlies have so much potential they can be really good in year 2 and I wanted more of a rebuilding challenge. How does your team look now and were you able to keep Zach Randolph? He left Memphis in mine and went to the Bucks but they got Jared Sullinger as a nice replacement.
