The "How is your Dynasty/Association going" Thread

[rise]

His morale stays pretty high if you start him every night and give him 30-40 minutes a night.

[Cleveland wins]

I was doing a fantasy draft just to have some fun, but its hard sometimes because cpu teams like to rip you off. I had three nice power forwards, LaMarcus Aldridge, J.J. Hickson, and one of the Derrick's, can't remember if it was Favors or Character. But some stupid team offered me Eddie House for J.J. HIckson, what is wrong with these cpu teams, and i always try to help them in return whenever i try to make a trade with them.

Stupid team offering me a third string point gaurd for a second string power forward.

[skotas28]

Got bk from holiday and finaly had a chance to unwrap nba 2k12.

Was a hard decision which team to go with for the association mode. The pick was between Kings and Nets, the other teams were to stacked already or had players I dont like.

Decided to go with a Kings as their roster looked f*ck up.

PG Jeter
SG T.Evans / J. Salmons / M.Thornton / D.Greene
SF F. Garcia
PF J.J. Hickson/ J.Thompson / D.Jackson
C D.Cousins/ S.Dalembert/ H.Whittside

as we can see, only one real pg, who is not good enough to be a back up. And to many SG's.

So before I started, used a trade finder and put Salmons and Jackson on offer. And hoped for a descent PG to be offered. Well not sure about descent but got offered B.Davis and D.Gibson from Cavs and they wanted my 2012 2rd pick as well. Accepted.

Current roster:
S5:

PG B.Davis
SG T.Evans
SF M. Thornton (undersized as hell)
PF J.J. Hickson
C D. Cousins

6th man J.Thompson
7th S.Dalembert
8th. F.Garcia
9th D.Greene
10th D.Gibson
11th E.Jeter
12th H.Whittside


All star level. 12min quarters. 58 games season. The Truth's NBA 2k12 Simulation Sliders Allstar Real Player %.

First 3 games of a season away @Mavs, @SPurs, @Rockets. First thought f*kin great.

But Kings were up for a surprise. Half way thru the first game 55-46. But started 3rd Q 2-19. And lost on a buzzer beater 97-100 by C.Butler (thanks to Thornton 6'4" SF lol). Anyway was happy with this loss , as did a great job against Nowitzki 8pts fouled out.

There was not the only surprise. As the next game ended up 102-92, W for the Kings. Old Spurs was no match for the young Kings.

1-1 and a trip to houston on the way.


Have to say that sliders a really good.

9-14 current record.
Was in need for a starting SF, got a trade with PTB, M. Thornton for G.Wallace. My play is getting better, but still very inconsistent. For example, loosing at home to Wizards, then beating NY away. Fighting till last minute with Heat, but hopeless against Warriors, then trashing Bobcats and Raptors..
Have a 58 games season,hopefully will brake it even at 29-29. Not sure if it is going to be enough for a playoffs, currently the 8th spot has 10-11 record.

[skotas28]

10-14. Third road victory in a row OT thriller over Hawks 110-109. G.Wallace sent the game into OT with a last second three point shot. In OT , J.J Hickson sealed the victory with 1.1sec left, with a nice jump shot. Home record 4-9, away record 6-5

[rise]

You got Gerald Wallace for just Marcus Thornton?

[skotas28]

Thornton and Brad Miller.


11-14. 4game road trip finished with a W in New Orleans 106-86. Thats 4 of 4.

I done 4 trades since the start of the season, but I think this is it. I am happy with a team I have, I learned my players and it started clicking.

PG B.Davis He is the last option on offence with 11ppg and 6.5ast
SG T.Evans after arrival of G.Wallace moved to a 2nd option in offence, but now starts to get bk on track and few games in a row was a highest scorer.
19.7ppg, 5.5rbs and 3.5ast
SF G.Wallace he does everything, I mean everything, scores, rebounds, steals, blocks, 3pt shots. Double-double threat all the time. 16.3ppg 9.5rbs , but since he arrived to SAC he has 22 and 10 average.
PF J.J. Hickson. And 1 specialist, most free throws att in a team. Fast break monster. 14ppg 8.8rbs.
C D.Cousins silent assasin lol, have no idea how he gets those doubledoubles all the time, 13.8ppg 10.2rbs.

6th M.Webster energy guy from a bench ,he is like 2min-10pts kinda guy. 8.2ppg
7th J.Thompson its sad I have no starting place for him. 6.2ppg and 4.4rbs per 16min
8th D.Gibson three point machine 45% best in a team. Leave him open and its in.
9th Dalembert best rebounding % in a team. 2.4ppg and 5rpg. per 10min
10th D.Greene dont play him much, cos Wallace/Webster/Evans takes all the minutes in 2-3 spots.
11th/12th Jeter/Mohammed gets garbage time.

[rise]

I'm glad G-Wall is getting the recognition he deserves. He's a top 5 defender and rebounder at his position, and he's extremely athletic and versatile.
In real life, I wouldn't let Mohammed rot at the end of the bench. In 2k11 his rating was joke. He should be around 68, but if 2k12 has his rating a lot lower, don't bother. He's a decent backup C/F in real life though.

[Radioman]

Just started a new Season with the 91/92 Bulls. Playing Juans and Alonchos 92 mod Rosters, my favourite Patch for NBA2k11. I am going to beat them all this year. Jordan is unstoppable scoring 35 points each night.

No fuck no lockout, this all sucks. Just great Games in 1991

It sux there is no NBA in sight but I have been enjoying following everyone's dynasty it gives you all kind of outcomes that actually happen. We need to keep the dynasty blogs going so we have some ball this year

[mpac]

Im near the trade deadline and my standing now is 32-13 and 2nd seed in the east, then got a bit bored so I managed to do "Danny Ainge" type of trades. Since getting the players i need and resigning some of the players, I dont have a way to resign KG for next season. Also Losing to the lakers made me realize I might need to upgrade my lineup for the playoffs against teams like Miami, Orlando, Lakers, Spurs, Okc etc. So, I got into these trades to beat the deadline:

1. Jermaine Oneil for ORL 2012 2nd pick and jj redick
2. KG and jajuan johnson ORL 2012 2nd pick for ATL Josh Smith, hinrich, Ethan thomas.

In this trade i manage to setup my team until the next season with Rondo - Allen/Affallo - Pierce - Jsmoove - Nene main lineup. Strong interior and outside defense, though hopefully its not too late for this season

Here nows my lineup:
Nene
Josh Smith
Pierce
Allen
Rondo

Backup:
Gortat
Dampier
Mcgrady
Affalo
hinrich
Bradley
jj redick

Reserve:
e. moore
Carney
ethan thomas

[skotas28]

As soon as I got back on HOME court, my 4 game W streak finished. 117-120 against Utah. Started really poor 6-22.. 22-41.. 52-64 at halftime.. The other half was much better, but just could not get into the lead, as soon as I was getting close, there was a run from Utah.
T.Evans had a huge game with 35pts and 6 of 12 3pt shots, but AK47 just killed G.Wallace who shot 3-14 and scored 12pts (lowest since arrival to SAC).
Luckily next, was a trip to LA, visiting Clippers. And another road win. 114-101. B.Griffins 35pts 13rbs was not enough for the Clipps.

Now standing 12-15 and 9th in the WEST. 4-10 home record. 8-5 away (last 5W).

There is a 4 game home stand waiting. Not looking forward to that

[skotas28]

Finaly a home win. 100-95 against PTB. G.Wallace had an amazing game with 31pts and 5/6 3pt shots. D.Cousins 19pts 12rbs had a great game too.. After third it was 79-64, but found myself down 94-95 with 1.58min left in the game. But then only SAC team found the net. 13-15 record, still 9th in the WEST.

[Cleveland wins]

I'm currently doing a fantasy draft, and i dbf edited all the staff member grades to a+, and one of the players that i drafted was Luke Ridnour, and i trained him a lot and now his overall is 80 and most of his offensive stats are 90 or over. Particularly passing, midrange, three point shooting and offensive awareness.

He's 28 right now and i'm still going to train him to increase his defensive skills and to raise his overall to 90, i'll probably post a picture of his stats later to prove it. I also have Evan Turner, and his overall is 93 or 95 i forgot which one. I'm currently trying to improve his dunking and strength.

Brook Lopez is a tremendous defender, his shot blocking stat is over 90 as well as his defensive awareness, and his midrange stat is over 80 and is very athletic for a center. Andray Blatche still has a little bit more improvement to make in his main defensive stats. His stealing and blocking are some where between 65-75, he's pretty athletic as well.

All of Ryan Anderson's main offensive stats which include, midrange, three point and inside shooting are all above 80 and are very close to 90. The main players that i've trained through out this dynasty have been Brook Lopez, Andray Blatche, Evan Turner and Luke Ridnour. Anthony Morrow was a starter early in his carrer, he's 25 now and he's on the bench with an overall of 85 as i didn't develope him much and wasn't too interested in training him as his offensive stats were already satisfactory for my team.

I like having athletic big men on my team, and pass first point gaurds which Rajon Rondo who is my starting point gaurd has become with at least 7 assists per game.

[skotas28]

I am f*kin furious right now.

Home game agains Cavs, worst team in the league. What can go wrong? After 3Q i am up 85-69. Lost 4Q 20-42. Game 105-111. They were hitting everything, C.Kaman was doing crazy 4-6m fadeaway jumpers. Whoever shot a three, it was going it. I could not f*kin believe it. And I was missing everything. Later checked the 4Q stats. They made 72% FG against mine 29%. I would not mind, it would have bin Lakers or Miami, Magic, Bulls. But c'mon Cavs had like 63 team ovr. and 29th in the league on OFF.

After half season my record now 13-16. 9th in the West. 1.5games behind 8th spot. Still chasing it. My next game at Home against Spurs.

[mpac]

final 10 games of the season and I really like the current lineup for the C's with rondo and josh smith leading. Now 35-13 in standing and positioning myself as 2nd seed in the East (Miami 1st, Chicago 3rd, Orlando 4th) Im thinking of resting my starters (particularly, allen pierce and rondo) in the last few games, but im watching closely to where will Bucks will seed (currently 6th seed). Dont know why, but im really having a hard time matching up against the bucks with Bogut leading the inside. grr...hehe

[joneboy2000]

[Cruzerr]

[skotas28]

16-18. Last 5games: 3W- spurs,nets,knicks. 2L- okc,warriors. D.Cousins player of the week. Had 27pts 19rbs against nets (both season high).
Finaly reached the 8th spot in the west, but nuggets and jazz are very close.

[mpac]

made to the playoffs 2nd seed with 42-16 standing. First round vs the Knicks. Had a nice series thanks to Josh smith and rajon rondo. Games 1 and 2 was raining threes with Ray Allen, Affallo, Pierce and Hinrich leading. We won in a lopsided fashion. Game 3 and 4 close but we manage to sweep the series. Melo averaging almost 35 pts in the series but wasnt enough as I was able to contain Amare with only averaging 12 pts. hehe

2nd round matchups: OKC - DAL, LAL - SAN, MIA-MIL, and BOS-IND.

[Martti.]

NBA 2K12 Create-a-Legend, B-Scal. Doing all right, only playing key games, 40 games into the season and we have traded Noah, Boozer, Deng, Bogans, Gibson and Watson.

The line-up now is :

C - Horford/Gortat
F - Hansbrough/Jordan Hill
F - Dudley/B-Scal
G - Dahntay Jones/Korver
G - Rose/Pargo

7th man now, though my avrage is like 4.5 ppg because of all the simulated games. I have played 5 games I think and scored 9, 9, 10, 12 and 15 in them.

[shadowgrin]

B. Scal! The B is for badass.

[Cruzerr]

Whats Scal for? It has to be something better than Scalabrine.
