What about my new lineup

[Air Kobe]

I've created a new dynasty to try everythink and lookup what happened

1. I've desided to negotiate with the Indiana Pacers to trade Jermine O'Neal and Jamaal Tinsley for Lamar Odom and Kwame Brown

2.Than I traded J.O'Neal and S.Vujacic for Steve Nash.
3. After that J.Tinsley,A.Anderson,1st Round Pick (LAL) for Kenyon Martin
4. S.Nash and B.Cook for Yao Ming
5. Chris Mihm,M.Evans for Ricky Davis
6. Sign G.Payton

and my starting lineup now is

C Yao Ming 88
PF Kenyon Martin 84
SF Ricky Davis 76
SG Kobe Bryant 97
PG Gary Payton 73

If u know some nice trades,write

[Devin112]

You should check out illini's thread about rosters, it's sticked.

You team is pretty good, but could be more offensively diversified. Add a pure shooter, someone kobe and ming can dish it to to hit a 3 when they're doubled. perimeter defense could be better, someone who can slow down opposing point guards, payton's don't going to do that anymore.

[Air Kobe]

Yes Payton isn't that good than before,I'll look up the other players for some good stealer,and try to negotiate for peja stojacovic or voshon lennard

[Air Kobe]

I've just finished the off-season and i've updated my team,look up my new superstar and star players

Yao Ming
Kenyon Martin
Ricky Davis
Kobe Bryant
Jason Terry
Vladimir Radmanovic
Dikembe Mutombo

I just finished with my trading here at the all-star break with my new dynasty...going with the mavs...check out my lineup ....

C - Chris Bosh
PF - Dirk
SF - Josh Howard
SG - Joe Johnson
PG - Created player....

Backups

C - Chris Kaman
PF - Josh McRoberts (rookie from duke...good progression)
SF - Gerald Green / Michael Pietrus
SG - Kevin Martin
PG - Devin Harris / Smush Parker

IL1 - Thaddeus Young
IL2 - Eddie Griffin

What'dya think??

[kbryant24]

u shoudl put smush parker in IL and replace himi with Thaddeus Young

[jkidd1216]

That's a good idea...I could run Pietrus as a Backup SG, and run Young at the SF...He is progressing pretty good. Do players get better from playing time or just with time spent with Assisstants??

[kbryant24]

too unrealistic.. stacked...

[jkidd1216]

Oh yea...Definitely unrealistic...stacked...well, kinda...It's not like I got Shaq, KG, Lebron, Kobe, and JKidd as my five with Yao, Amare, Paul Pierce, VC, and Gilbert backing up...Then Steve Nash, Jermaine O'Neal, well you get the point...All of it was done through signing and trading players away. I didn't do any of the moves before the season, just did crafty trading...Although I did just trade Pietrus for Mike Miller....I like the white guy...what can I say...

[Air Kobe]

Today I've just traded Yao for Shaq,but the bad thing is that this year (the second)there is no team with roster space,and I can't negotiate for stronger players

C Shaquille O'Neal Backup Dikembe Mutombo
PF Kenyon Martin Backup Andrew Bynum
SF Ricky Davis Backup Vladimir Radmanovic , Jason Kapono
SG Kobe Bryant Backup N/A
PG Jason Terry Backup First Round pick rookey

[jkidd1216]

Why did you trade yao for shaq? Shaq may be stronger, but Yao has potential still...Maybe do a swap for Bosh, or Even, Pao Gasol...
Bosh preferrebly....You can probably do a straight trade for gasol...
I don't know about Bosh, but if you can get him he progresses pretty good, after a few seasons he's like a 94 or 95...
.You can always do a 3 for 3 trade if you can sign the FA's...
get like Shaq, a 70, and a 68, then trade for like Bosh, a 60, and a 62, then Release the other players and sign more free agents...repeat...
That's how I got my lineup...It adds up after awhile.
And maybe get rid of Terry for someone Younger...Like Kirk Hinrich, or Devin Harris.
And Kenyon too...After New Jersey, He's always pissed me off..
.Work on Bynum though...
Maybe get Martell Webster...He progresses insanely...Will get to a 95-99 eventually...

[Air Kobe]

Terry is quite good,and he will become free agent after 5 years,i thought if I could trade him for Nash,but Nash is progressing so fast,and they won't trade him,but i could trade terry and someone else for nash and the worst player in his team,but the bad thing is that i just passed the trade deadline

[Air Kobe]

I wanna know did I did good,about
trading Ricky Davis and Antawn Jamison (i've signed him in the off-season) for Peja Stojacovic and Marcel Jeffries.
And I've traded Shaq and Smush Parker (signed him) for Pau Gasol and First Round Pick .And Jason Terry,V.Radmanovic for Stephon Marbury and Some dumbass rookey.

Now my lineup is:
Pau Gasol--->backup- D.Mutombo
K.Martin----->backup- A.Bynum
P.Stojacovic->backup- D.George
K.Bryant----->Backup- M.Finley
S.Marbury--->Backup- Some Sophmore with rating 61

[kbryant24]

trade kenyon martin! he gets injured too ez

and bynum sux!!

but good job in gaining gasol hes good

[Air Kobe]

Martin got injured in the beginning when he camed in the team,but bynum is progressing really really fast,and i think he will become a star in 1-2 years,
And I wanna ask u why Kobe's rating is decreasing,in the second year I've made him 98 ovrl and in the next season he becamed 96 ,that sux

[Air Kobe]

[McDwyane]

Your rosters are not bad.Good chemistry IMO.

[Air Kobe]

Today I decided do do something BIG,and:
1. Sign D.Mason
2. TRADE P.Gasol,K.Martin,S.Marbury for LeBron James,S.Corey
3. P.Stojacovic,D.George for P.Gasol,K.Lowry
4.Sign A.Johnson ( PG )
5.Release S.Corey
6.Trade D.Mason,M.Finley for K.Brown,B.O'Sullivan (i've needed a better PF )

And my lineup is :
C P.Gasol
PF K.Brown
SF L.James
SG K.Bryant
PG A.Johnson

[Cleveland wins]

Hmm interesting lineup but, how did you get kobe? And i thought it was impossible for a user team to anybody for james. I remember one time i had dwight howard and i tried to trade for james in year 1 but they didn't accept. But, at another time they actually offered me dwight howard for james but i rejected it. And just yesterday i offered some team dwight howard for adam morrison but for some reason they rejected it i couldn't understand why. But that was a good trade for casol but, i'm beggining to hate computer trades but i'm glad that computer teams trade with each other but i hate some of them because when i go and make the same trade they always reject it.

[jkidd1216]

Kobe and LB23 on the same team?? That's ridiculous, I would trade kobe for a decent SG and a better PG (Maybe like Martell Webster or Gerald Green, and then Randy Foye or Devin Harris) Kobe will start to get old and the older he gets, the more his ratings will decline...trade him this year or the next while his stock will still be very high. You will also clear cap space by trading him, although by the looks of it I think you don't need it with your $118 Mil Cap. Anyways...yea, trade him while he is really good. (BTW Martell webster gets insane good)

[jkidd1216]
