Go with Davis and the Hornets. Break Supermans back ASAP with Davis directly administering the blow. Gosh I hate Howard.

Hey Brutha... Don't do sound like a bad idea.. Take The Brow and Co.. To LA and wipe the floor with Dwight.. Lol Or use Orlando and get the best revenge maybe trade for Quincy Miller and build around him bring TMac Back for another run.. That's for your input I'm narrowing it down today..

i really dont think kirlenko and roy for ibaka is unfair. if roy is back then this a fir. and, i did not override. the cpu offered it.

Roy and Kirilenko for Ibaka is a terrible deal that the Thunder would never make. A better trade would be Roy and Kirilenko for Harden and Jackson or a 1st Rd Pick.

The deal is stupid for a number of reasons. Why would they take one player in AK47 that plays the same exact position as KD and Roy who has questionable knees for their youngest and best big man? Another thing is why would the Twolves take on Ibaka when they already have young guys in Pekovic and Love that are shown to be good together? Where does a 12M a year Ibaka fit into that?

As I said before, dont try to pass of stupid trades as legit. Just sours up a good thread.

Dont know if this question has been answered but do players gain sig skills as they develop?

Started my Association today with the Warriors. I signed T-Mac and Mehmet Okur so far.

Playing on Casual/Superstar, 5 minute quarters. Until the patch fixes the Fast Break, Simulation is useless. Should be fun.

Re: Official NBA2K13 Association Thread

Hey I have started an Association with the Wizards and trying to get them into the playoffs first... Currently 1-1 after 2 (win against cavs, loss to Celts)

I first did a bunch of trades.

Wizards: Price/Vesely <> Pacers: Hansbrough/'14 2nd round
I feel I won here for sure, Vesely is very talented but extremely limited in ability as of right now (Can't shoot his way out of a paper bag). Hansbrough on the other hand is a scrappy bigman who shoots midrange and can snatch rebounds, he can spread the court which the team needs in PF/C

Wizards: Martin/'13 1st round <> Nuggets: Kenneth Faried
Again, I feel like I have won this one even though I dropped a very valuable pick to the Nuggets. Faried is simply put a beastly guy who can play the 3spot and grab rebounds like there is no tomorrow, well worth a pick imo.

Wizards: Seraphin/Booker <> Rockets: Parsons/Brockman
Semi-win, I give up a good but limited PF (Who got replaced by Faried), and I got a scrub (Brockman) and a talented number 3 who can both shoot and play defense very very well. With Ariza being a big contract and most likely going on FA again I will have the perfect replacement with Parsons...

Also signed Jonny Flynn to a 1 year deal to get a quick and lethal PG who can shoot from beyond the arc to support Wall, Mack doesn't cut it at all (yet).

The current lineup is something I am very pleased with...

Starting:
PG: John Wall (85) 35m
SG: Bradley Beal (77) 30m
SF: Trevor Ariza (77) 33m
PF: Nenê (80) 33m
C: Emeka Okafor (79) 33m
The Bench:
PG/SG: Jamaal Crawford (77) 18m
SF/PF: Kenneth Faried (77) 18m
SF: Chandler Parsons (76) 13m
PF/C: Tyler Hansbrough (72) 9m
PG: Jonny Flynn (75) 7m
SF/PF: Chris Singleton (71) 7m
SF/SG: Martell Webster (70) 4m
RES: Shelvin Mack (66)
RES: Jon Brockman (54) -Warm body-

Personally the team got a rediculous defensive presence with Ariza/Nenê/Okafor in the lineup and then also guys like Faried/Parsons/Hansbrough backing up...

I am still looking to make some trades though, personally I would prefer to trade either Nenê or Okafor since having two centers starting is a bit overkill, and to put either of them on the bench isn't in my best interests either.

If anyone got some tips on who I could go for and/or where I can improve the team still, I would love some suggestions. I am 3M above the cap so I am looking to get rid of a big earner and maybe add another kid to the roster.

Re: Official NBA2K13 Association Thread

Just came THIS close to breaking the damn disc!!!

Just had the most epic game in my NBA 2K HISTORY. Second game of the season, Kyrie Irving Vs. Derrick Rose.

Everyone knew it would be an epic encounter and these two guys did not disappoint.

The Cavs fought back all the way from 13 down to tie the game at the end of regulation on a Kyrie Irving jumpshot.

Then, we went into 3 Overtimes! YES, 3 overtimes. The entire game was just back and forth with D. Rose and Irving trying to one up eachother.

In the end though, The Cavs pulled away in the 3OT to win the game 142-137

Kyrie had 51 Points and 21 Assists while D. Rose had 55 Points, 9 Rebounds and 10 Assists.

It was just a clash of the titans, I couldn't believe how much fun I was having playing this game. Jumping, yelling, out of my seat excitement. I get to the end of the game, go and check the box score and the game freezes on me!!!

I couldn't believe it. My jaw dropped, I just set the controller down and walked away. All that hard work for nothing, all the excitement, and the sweating and the yelling and the satisfaction of having a CAREER game with Irving and coming back and winning was for nothing.

I don't even want to play this game for a long time. What a ****ing waste!

T-Mac is by far one of the best free agents to sign IMO. He's been good for 15-20 pts off the bench for me.

Sour isn't the word man. I wanted to just RAGE. Cooler heads prevailed though and I just walked away. Needless to say I won't be playing that association again.

100% agree about trying to pass off bad trades. To be honest when I was thinking about the Roy and Kirilenko trade I was assuming Roy & his knees held up. I would actually rework that deal to Roy, Kirilenko 1st Rd Pick for James Harden. OKC saves money and keeps relatively the same production and the Twolves get a proven scorer. Thunder also get a player in Kirilenko who can guard 3 position on the court, he would be very solid with the second unit. Pretty even if you ask me.

[QUOTE=MarcusC;2044286028]

yes Thunder choked last season.I mean Lebron owned everyone and their mother but still after game 2 they were done.

Roy was a star 2 years ago. and, he has 1 year to rest his knee. now, maybe that does not happen. but harden was awol and battier shut down durant for as much as possible. so, you don't take the best player on russia's bronze medal team and former star for a 9 ppg guy?

you may recall kirelnko was a stud a few years back too.

if ibaka is so good then why does bosh own him? and, gasol owned him too. and, ibaka, besides the one miracle game, cannot shoot and has no post game. you cant win in the nba without some type of inside scoring. and, besides harden, name one guy that could score off their bench.

and, the backup sf is a guy named lazaar something.

pg westrbook
sg sfeol
sf durant
pf ibaka
c perkins

bench
harden
cook
lazaar


or,

pg westbrook
sg sefol
sf durant
pf milsap/josh smit or horford in a trade for harden
c perkins

bench
roy
kirelinko
cook

I will take team 2 by far. you get a guy that could score like harden and a shut down defender in kirlelinko.

Re: Official NBA2K13 Association Thread

Has anyone been earning VC by using coach mode in Association? I thought it would be an easy way to get VC without really having to be in front of the TV and play the full game, my team won but at the end I gained no VC. Kind of a bummer. I'm on ps3, is this just the way it is?
