Re: NBA Live 10 Blog: Synergy Sports Technology: From the NBA Draft to NBA Live 10

I have a question as well

Will it be possible to keep the the teams updated without the players updating?

Lets say theres a huge blockbuster trade in the middle of the season. This player doesnt have a good week on his new team but he has a reputation of being a star.

Can it still be possible to play as this team with this player but when he wasn't missing all his shots?

Bargnani a bust ???? No. If anyone actually watched him play from December onwards will tell you he's not a bust. He was averaging around 18 & 8 with a couple of blocks in there as well since december. He really snapped out of the funk he was in when he finally got some playing time every night on a consistant basis. If he keeps improving like he did last season.......... the word will get out and nobody on here will call him a bust.

Your not going to see Bargnani highlights on sports center on a nightly basis. So I can see why people still dont know about his improved play of last season............but just ask any raptor fan or anybody that actually watches the raptors every game and they will tell you that from december onward Bargnani was one of the best if the best raptor on a night to night basis for the last 50-60 or so games of the season.

end of rant (i fell better now)


Edit: Sorry for taking the thread off topic.......

Ahh, relying on stats to tell the story? Always a big mistake. Bargnani is a softie who can't defend the post and is embarrassed when he tries to defend the perimeter. He is a jump shooter with no rebounding or passing skills to speak of. As long as the Raptors have two finesse bigs they will never make deep playoffs runs.

I agree that he's not a "bust" considering he's only 23 and hasn't had time to really play consistently until the 2nd half of last season. But people will give him a hard time because he got picked so early in the draft and isn't (or at least not yet) a star player. But I do know that he played very well last season towards the end because my fantasy team got hobbled with injuries and I picked up Bargnani and he helped me survive and finish in 1st place

No passing skills ???? I don't know about that one. Anyways, I dont want to interupt this thread with other stuff. Will talk about this again at the end of next season.

Won't be a problem this year, but I'll let Garreth Reeder explain in an upcoming blog.

What we did last year is a good example... for example we used Ray's ratings to drive his play and the Shot Streak to modify that. So, if Ray Allen had a bad week he was 'cold' in NBA LIVE, but Ray Allen cold is still better than 80% of the league. More info to come on all this, but rest assured a player's total season output has much more of an impact than the last week.

Great to hear, when will we get some Draft screenshots, sort of like Ian did with Madden 10. Draft photos of the players going to their teams?

The NBA rookies are a different situation than the NFL rookies. Once the NFL rookies go to the combine, they're in the NFLPA. That's not the case with the NBA, where they have to officially sign with their team.

At least shows us some of the players in their new unis guys! VC, Shaq, RJ...

I know you are keeping everything under wraps but I beleive showing some player models can do no harm...

But I might be wrong hehe...
