v1.00 released...

[Jackie Kong]

Around what date can we expect the first update?

[Jona]

You should change Alan Henderson's #50 (in the roster) to #44, in CLE.

Also change LAC's Patrick Ewing from #32 to #3, and LAL's Laron Profit from #6 to #9.

Thanks man!

[Andrew]

Thanks Jona.

So in the next update, will we have to download faces for players like Smush Parker and Martynas Andriuskevicius and portraits for them?

[prekazi81]

i think dwight howard shouldn't have any offensive superstar ability (yet). Also most of the guards that have playmaker superstar ability, don't deserve coz nowadays it's hard to find a pure point guard around nba. The only ones deserve this are Steve Nash, Jason Kidd and Kirk Hinrich and i'm not sure about Jamaal Tinsley either but he also seems to be scoring point guard and last year Indiana one of the worst assist teams in the league. Jason Terry is never a playmaker you could see this in Dirk's face in Dallas games

Yes, most likely.

[Hoopwrecker3]

are the players salaries part of the updates?

[Jona]

Suggestions:

Increase John Salmon's quickness/speed/dribble ratings. In the game he is pretty slow, but in reality he is slashing and attacking the basket much more than he used to.

Increase a bit Tyson Chandler's Off. Reb. rating, half of his rebounds are offensive, and he has managed to get those 10 rpg. without Curry in the lineup.

Decrease dramatically Charlie Villanueva's FT rating, it's 68. Right now he is shooting (believe it) 31.3% from the line. Kris Humphries has a 43 rating and is shooting 44% form the line, with the same FTA.

Increase José Calderón's FT rating. He is shooting 79% from the line, and in the game he's got a 50-something rating.

That's it for now.

76ers Suggestions:

Andre Iguodala has really improved his shooting this year, the man was unconsious from the perimiter against Toronto, and continues to knock down outside shots even with a man in his face. The ratings he has now (65 FG, 60 3PT) don't seem to do his recent performances justice from a gameplay standpoint.

Chris Webber's passing should be increased, he's made some really nice feeds this year and currently averages 4.4 assists per game.

Michael Bradley wears #5 now instead of #31.

-S76

[R.J.]

Eddy Curry wears number 34.

[Andrew]

Thanks for the latest, noted.

[Jona]

The new abbreviation for the Hornets is "NOK".

[Chris.]

im not sure if you changed it andrew or someone has metioned it yet but yao's primacy needs to be bumped up because its at 5

[Jonnejon]

I think there aren't many Celtics fan in this forum, so I decided to post some information. Hope these help. Not to be diehard Celtics fan or anything.

I think Paul Pierce's primacy should be a higher.

I think Ricky Davis's passing and field goal should be a little bit higher. He has a lot of assist per game.

I think Mark Blount's speed, quickness, range (about 18ft) and field goal should be higher. His rebounding and his D sucks, so it should get lower.

If you can change the shooting style, I think Raef LaFrentz's shooting style should change because he has a faster release than the game.

I think Ryan Gomes's three point should be higher.(He can make it but doesn't shoot it as often) His shooting style should change too.

Justin Reed's range should be a little higher, he can make the 18 footer.

Orien Greene's passing should be higher, I seen him play. He has good vision, especially fastbreak.

Marcus bank's ratings should be lower, he is way overated in the game. He has good D, but makes bad decisions overall.

Besides that the roster is great. Thanks for reading.

Guys, about the primacy, it gets automated now for some reason so it's quite hard to fix... so it's hard to change primacy this year

[Chosen^One]

Increases Alonzo Mourning Freestyle Block and off Reb and Def Reb

[Andrew]

Exactly right. If you create or edit a player, it's going to re-set everyone's primacy, so any primacy suggestions will have to be based on an unedited version of my roster else they probably won't be accurate.

[mAgoTT50]

change david lee's number too 42
+ increase rebounding to about 70-75 beacuse he is avaraging 8.7 rebound per game

[Andrew]

Noted.

[Jackie Kong]

players like nocioni, stevenson, Barbosa and pachulia should see a general improvement as they got better in almost every category. Not much though, because it is the start of the season but at least a bit.

Also for example Diop has made a major improvement. And players like T.J.Ford and Mike James could see an improve as well.

Sarunas Jasikevicius could be better in the shooting stats to mention some others.

Now, i am only mentioning some players i think that should be increased however there are also some that should be decreased, not to mention the created rookies.

[strider]

A rating I think really needs some improvement.....John Salmons - currently Speed=41 and Quickness=43 .... I know he's no speed daemon but this is slower than most big guys ..... defnitely needs a decent improvement here amongst other things - he's having a strong season.

[tongefactor40]

been out of the loop for the last few weeks, anyone give me an update? has version 1.1 been released?

[R.J.]

Maybe an increse for Nocioni's 3 pt. He's shot 12-28 this year, 43% compared to 26% last year.

[OneCentPenny]

Hey Andrew,Im kinda surprised that notbody's mentioned Channing Frye in here.Any Knick fan who wouldve seen games would have noticed that this guy is simply amazing.He has a smooth stroke from about 22...(which prompts for a subsequent increase in his range) He is also shooting 86% from the charity stripe!Id also prefer his jumpshooting style to be changed to the way the guards shoot...he just doesnt shoot like the big men do.You could compare him to KG.
His rankings as of now:Ranks #18 in the NBA in Field-Goal Percentage(0.512)
Ranks #8 in the NBA in Field Goals Per 48 Minutes(11.41)
Ranks #19 in the NBA in Field-Goal Attempts Per 48 Minutes(22.28) Ranks #19 in the NBA in Points Per 48 Minutes(27.5)
Ranks #11 in the NBA in Efficiency Ranking Per 48 Minutes(30.25)

Therefore,I suggest a massive increase in his,Range,FT,FG and Ins scr

PS:Contrary to wat somebody said early on that his position is PF/C,Larry Brown has used him more as a direct Eddy Curry sub and he even made his first start at Centre position against Philadelphia.

[Andrew]

Thanks for the latest, all noted.
