    Bedwardsroy19’s NBA 2K13 Interactive 30-Team Association Thread

    Hey Everyone,

    I make rosters for PS3 and you can check them out in this thread: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...r-project.html


    Last year I began a thread that served as a guide to running 30-Team Association’s: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...iscussion.html . A lot of that information can still be used now in 2K13, but I had an idea for a way to make 30-Team Control Association’s fun this year.

    My idea is one for anybody who has ever tossed around the idea of running a 30-Team Control Association but ultimately backed out because they felt like they had TOO much control over the entire league.

    What I was thinking is that each person who start their own 30-Team Control Association would post in this thread basic information about their association like what team you selected, what some of your goals are (short term and long term). Then every two weeks in the video game you would post a brief update. Like the current standings, who’s leading the league in points and what not.

    At that point myself, or a panel of writers, will fill in the story line from the previous two weeks and what will happen in the future.

    Perhaps there was a skirmish between a coach and a player that will result in less minutes in the upcoming week. Perhaps a coach decides a player needs to come of the bench as opposed to starting. Perhaps a player is unhappy with a current situation and demands a trade. Or perhaps even, a player is being shopped around by different teams.

    I and the other writers will not be making these decisions for your team, but we will for the rest of the league. This way although you are in control, somebody else’s outside perspective and creative mind has the control of your Association mode.

    This may make it easier when we get to the Offseason especially, because the writer can tell you whether or not players decide to resign or sign elsewhere.

    Say you want a particular Free Agent to come to your team, the writer can take on the role of the Free Agent and you the team president. You can type up a little “pitch” to the player hoping he decides to sign.

    I am not sure if this idea will take off or not, but I thought it would be fun for everyone involved if people gave it a shot. If anybody is interested, let me know and give me some info! I will aleady start write ups for your season!

    If you are on PS3 use Version 3 of my roster so we are on the same page!

    Let me know what you think!

    Alright, well i am definitely interested in doing this! I will be rolling with the Atlanta Hawks, and will be trying to build a big 3 around Josh Smith (ala Celtics). I plan on making the 2 big trades around draft day. The team will be a defensively minded one, and I will hire a coach accordingly and with aspirations to win immediately. The first year, I will try to contend but I will mainly be trying to acquire assets for the bigger trades in the coming offseason. I don't know what other information you want, but I can certainly give it to you!

          Absolutely!

          The roster would be nice so we could be looking at the same numbers, but it is definitely not vital.

          Sounds awesome!

                  Hey guys I saw this and I had an idea. I'm running my own 30 team IA and I'm running it a lil different. So maybe we can combine leagues. My IA is run on my disk alone, not everyone's own though. I sim the games and you guys will GM. We could combine as I said and I already have 21 people so we can have a full 30 team league, and writers to write stories. Just a suggestion so you don't think I'm trying to campaigne. The link to my thread is here so you can read how it's done. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...sociation.html

                  It would be fun to have a 30 team IA with backup people in case people are inactive with people to write compelling stories!

                      The Knicks had high hopes to start this 2012/2013 NBA season. Getting PGs Jason Kidd and Raymond Felton in the offeason after the Jeremy Lin era ended after only one year.

                      They felt they had a legitimate chance to compete in the East this year, but, apparently the basketball Gods had different ideas.

                      2 weeks through the young season and the Knicks are 0-5, going winless, getting blown out in most games. With losses to the Nets, Heat, Sixers twice and Dallas, New York is showing they can't hang around with any of the stronger teams in the NBA.

                      Their leading scorer is Carmelo Anthony with 29.4 PPG, followed by Amare Stoudemire with 13.6 and JR Smith with 13.4

                      After that, there's a big drop off in scoring, with Iman Shumpert and Jason Kidd getting just above 8 a game. At least Kidd is chipping in with 8.5 APG.

                      Around the NBA things seem to be business as usual in the scoring race. Kevin Durant leads all scorers with 33 PPG. Followed by Carmelo Anthony, Kobe Bryant, Dywane Wade and the surprise, James Harder at 27.9 PPG.

                      The Thunder and the Raptors pace the NBA with the best offenses at 107.5 PPG each, with 13 other teams cracking the 100 barrier, also.

                      The top teams in the East are of no surprise, except for maybe the Wizards and Pistons.

                      1. Miami Heat (8-0)
                      2. Chicago Bulls (6-1)
                      3. Philidelphia 76ers (6-1)
                      4. Indiana Pacers (5-2)
                      5. Washington Wizards (3-2)
                      6. Detroit Pistons (4-4)
                      7. Brooklyn Nets (3-3)
                      8. Toronto Raptors (3-4)

                      And then we have the bottom teams..

                      Orlando Magic (2-4)
                      Atlanta Hawks (2-4)
                      Boston Celtics (2-5)
                      Charlotte Bobcats (1-4)
                      Milwaukee Bucks (1-5)
                      New York Knicks (0-5)

                      The West is showing us a few surprises early on, too. Lakers and Thunder are on top, which is what everyone expected, but after that it gets a bit crazy.

                      1. Los Angeles Lakers (6-1)
                      2. OKC Thunder (6-2)
                      3. New Orleans Hornets (4-1)
                      4. Los Angeles Clippers (5-2)
                      5. Pheonix Suns (5-3)
                      6. Portland Trail Blazers (4-3)
                      7. Dallas Mavericks (4-4)
                      8. Utah Jazz (4-4)

                      Spurs, Grizzlies and Nuggets are all the worst of the worst with 1-6 records, ouch!

                      Obviously some teams in both conferences that thought they would compete, mostly the aging Spurs and Celtics aren't doing so hot. A change might be coming...

                      There are some excellent rookies in the NBA this year, and 3 of them have their teams in good positions in this early season.

                      Damian Lillard leads all rookies with 20.6 PPG, but Dion Waiters isn't far behind with 17.1. Anthony Davis is pushing the hornets with 14.4 PPG and Bradley Beal is adding some spunk to the Wizards with 14.2 PPG

                      A few key injuries to report, also..

                      Josh Smith (ATL) - 2 Weeks with a dislocated finger

                      Jason Kidd (NYK) - 2 Weeks with an inflamed elbow

                      Dirk Nowitzki (DAL) - 2 Weeks with a sore ankle

                      Thabo Sefolosha (OKC) - Season with a torn MCL

                      Damian Lillard (POR) 2 Weeks with a lower back strain

                      Emeka Okafor (WAS) - 4 Weeks with broken ribs

                      Obviously some of these injuries will have a lasting effect on some of the top teams. The next few weeks should play out nicely!

                        Hawks Association

                        Definitely a rough start to the season. We got shredded by the Rockets in the first game and have been on the wrong side of a few close games. The idea for this Association is to use the Celtics model and pick up 2 aging players, 27 or above who are without a ring and who would want be a part of a big 3 that includes Josh Smith. No other pieces are untradeable! I hope to make it as realistic as possible. Targets right now are Amare Stoudemire, Danny Granger, Monta Ellis,Zach Randolph and LaMarcus Aldridge. Any suggestions for players or ways of acquiring them in a realistic way would be appreciated!

                        Results from first 4 games:
                        vs HOU 102-76 L
                        vs OKC 105-100 W
                        vs IND 112-109 L

                            Some good ideas here. I like the idea someone had of a central sim with different posters acting as GMs for the various teams. I remember doing that on the old Front Page Sports football. It was online fantasy football before that became what it is now. Good stuff.

                            Also, another thread mentioned the idea of letting your assistants propose trades but you have final say over approving them. Does this work? This would save a ton of brain usage trying to figure out workable trades for each team.
