Players you could see being traded at the deadline?

I read that the Rockets may be looking to part ways with Howard.

The MLK day madness in the nba, plenty of OT big thrilling games, kemba's big night also.

I know these topics would be covered anyway.

I spoke to the LiveKing on YouTube the other day he mentioned (but don't quote him) that EA had increased the Dev team for Live 17

A while back we had a discussion on the classic Lakers vs the classic Bulls teams and which team would win that match up well how about the 96 Bulls vs the current Warriors team?

After seeing what they did to the Spurs last night how do you think a Bulls/Warriors clash would fare?

Would Jordan guard Curry?
How about that match up at PF... Rodman vs Green?

Which Aussie would come out on top in the middle?

Sounds good. (Y)

Ben's travelling home today, so this week's episode will be out a little later, probably Friday evening/Saturday morning depending on where you are in the world. As such, there's still time to get in any topic suggestions.

Clearly Ben being reunited with his ps4 should be a major topic suggestion then (y)

Teams that should be looking to trade at the deadline, will the Bulls attempt to move Rose or Noah?

Will the Hawks move Teague? Hearing the Jazz might be offering Burk and Burks?

What about the Hawks moving Al Horford?

Will Durant leave the Thunder for the Warriors this summer?

So yeah all things trade related,

How about future coaches??? :-)

Can't really think of much more, Live is just frustrating the crap out of me...

Marty Conlon to the sidelines, somewhere. ;)

Any Wishlist ideas for Live or 2K you'd like us to discuss, or other stuff of that nature? I know we're in that period where there's more NBA stuff to discuss, and we do have a couple of video game topics ready to go, but a couple more wouldn't hurt.

The other suggestion for suggestions (to coin a phrase) I'd make would be community-related talk. I'd still like to get some guests on from time to time, so we'll see what we can set up, but I wouldn't mind talking about the history of the community, patching, that sort of thing. I'm sure we can come up with some topics ourselves of course, but suggestions would definitely be welcome.

The history of dynasty mode (association/myleague/mygm) and hoe it improved over the years.

Biggest mistakes made in dynasty modes, we have all made that one trade to many that kills the enjoyment.

First one could be a multi-part feature. I'll definitely make a note of it, either for the Podcast or another feature (or both). Second one's a good one too, it's on the list as well.

It would be great if we could get Scott O'G back on to try and sheed some light to why nba live talks a big game until the release date then they seem to go off grid once you they have your money, a bit like a used car salesman.

And why there catchphrase seems to be "NEXT YEAR" literally days after the release.

Pretty sure Scott wouldn't be able to talk about his former bosses but it's worth a shot.

I second what mp3 said about the history of Dynasty Mode. Problems could include the initial lack of drafts and retirements, so that a player who was 14 years pro when it started would end up going for all 10 (if memory serves correct) years of the early dynasty modes.

I'd be interested in hearing about the history of the site. Who was there from the beginning, what was the plan, and how that plan may have changed... when did Andrew and other administrators or contributors become involved and what specifically drew them to contribute to NLSC. For instance, was it the Basketball Stories section, did they hate the Pistons horse head jerseys and want to mod those out, or was it the wish lists? And so on, and so forth

The history of Dynasty/Franchise modes is definitely something I'm interested in. It might make for a good Podcast topic, but to be honest, I'd love to do some sort of video series or something on it. However we do it, it'll have to be an on-going series, as a few minutes in an episode of the Podcast isn't enough. ;)

A bit of site history sounds good as well. I'll mark it down, and see what we can do. Might also have to be done in a couple of parts!

Topic suggestion -Any thoughts on a potential $100 million dollar shoe deal for Ben Simmons? Also since Ben is an Aussie , who was the last Aussie drafted #1 overall in the draft.

This is time of year when college players draft starts to go up and down. Some of the latest mock drafts have Ben Simmons at #2 after being projected as #1 all season. This is mainly because his team did not make the College Tournament. His comparisons have now dropped from Lebron/ Magic Johnson to a Skinny Royce White as one NBA exec puts it lol. I think the speculation about player's draft stock and potential in the NBA is overkill this time of year during March Madness.
One NBA What do you guys think about that trend of players shooting up draft projections or falling hard due their play in March?
