Trade deadline passed, now what's a good Association to start?

[ChaseReynolds]

I would like to hear suggestions on good project teams to start an Association with. I tried one with the Nets, but Deron Williams wasn't as fun to play with as I thought he'd be. I started a Golden State one and traded Troy Murphy and a first round pick for Okafor, which makes for a good squad.

What Associations have you guys started since the roster update?

Washington Wizards

John Wall is crazy fast. McGee is a pogo stick on the defensive end. Other than that those two pieces, you have alot of work to do building a good team. Blatche and Howard will be gone after the season. Nic Young is a decent back-up 2 guard. With McGee at C, you need to go out and get an offensive PF and a SF that can do it all. Along with a decent SG if you don't want Young starting. Not asking too much, right?

For real? Young is a decent backup? Haha, sorry man but Young has one of the best 3-point shots in the game. The Wall/Young backcourt is arguably the best in 2K.

But hey, that's why they're called opinions.

I started a new Sonics chise with Lil Nate and Perk.

If you get the time, maybe try a Bobcats Association run.

Lineup

Point Guard - DJ Augustin ( young, fast, great ball handling skills )
Shooting Guard - Gerald Henderson ( young, fast, will need mentoring )
Small Forward - Stephen Jackson ( old, not too fast, great shooter )
Power Forward - Boris Diaw/Tyrus Thomas ( my pick is Tyrus )
Center - Kwame Brown ( young, ok defense, needs work )

Def a project team with Jackson getting old and Kwame at Center.

Dj, Gerald and Tyrus are very young and have great potential. Bobcats waived Derrick Brown and he is in free agency. ( Young SF ) Joel Pryzbilla is now on the squad so maybe that can help the 5 spot hole.

New York Knicks, Oklahoma City Thunder, and New Jersey Nets.

The Knicks because, well obviously, they have two practically unstoppable superstars. Makes for some fun games.

The Thunder because with the addition of Nate Robinson, Nazr Mohammed, and most of Kendrick Perkins, it creates such balance on the offensive end of the floor. Now there is a lot of scoring option in Durant, Westbrook, Harden, Ibaka, Perkins, and Robinson. It's really a really versatile group and the balanced attack on offense works better for me, whereas before I had to go off with Durant for 30 every game to even have a chance at winning.

The Nets because the duo of Deron Williams and Brook Lopez is very deadly, and with Anthony Morrow's pretty outside shot, it's a totally different New Jersey Nets team. This team can finally score, their one weakness at times is defense.

Hope this helps.

L2R.

He already tried the Nets.

I do wonder if, to him a project team = a team under .500 or riding that borderlne.

This a great place to find other association heads and get their opinion.
