the Marbury thing is great!! with that story, it would seem as if you would just suit up for the Hawks yourself!!

anyway nice job of putting drama into this dynasty...im trying to do it in mine, but school and stuff are keeping me from doing it so im only able to play games and not put any additional stuff...im currently trying to work a "behind the scenes" thing, showing what goes on during practice, etc.

anyway, once again, good luck!

1st: Lakers suck
2nd: Good story, what's your next move? I still say childress and williams for Dwight Howard, or one of those for Josh Howard, the Howards are good

... in this shot you can really see the extra time they put into making the arena as authentic in the upper tiers...something you really can't pay attention to while playing the game. That's one reason I love playing the game on the PC because we can really visually reflect...

- 1st: Thanks about the marbury story.. hope dit was a good twist

2nd: Yeah, good luck with putting drama into ur dynasty! School is a lot of work when added to this. Reason why Chapter 2 is late due to how long it takes to do it!

3rd: thanks! :) (Y)

Hawks to Mourn the Loss of Teammate
Former Hawks C Jason Collier is sorely missed

Image

Oct 31, Atlanta - The Atlanta Hawks will honour former Hawk Jason Collier when the Hawks grace the Phillips Arena. The team hosts the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets and before the game, a service will be held in memory of the former Hawks big man who passed away during the offseason.

Collier died due to heart problems and the team has been swept and overwhlemed by the grief of losing a close teammate and friend. Josh Smith has voved that Atlanta will play for Collier and in memory of him, every player will have 'R.I.P. JC 40' on their shoes and a black stripe on their jerseys.

The Hawks hope that they can be motivated even more with the fact that they know they are playing for their fallen teammate and this is something that GM Will Sit is excited about. "Sportsmanship and friendship are two traits that I expect will bring this team together. To know thast they are all playing for the same cause, really helps me to trust them even more to be able to give it their all."

Included in the service will be a speech from Collier's wife and newly appointed Hawks GM Will Sit. As well as remembering Collier, the Hawks will take the opportunity to remember those who lost their lives and are currently stranded due to Hurricane Katrina. Hornets' rookie Chris Paul told media yesterday, "It is great to know that the Hawks will remember that we (Hornets) are also playing in memory of our own troubles."

Jason Collier's number 40 will not be available for any player on the Hawks for this next season. The former Georgia Tech player from Springfield, Ohio leaves behind his wife and a daughter. He died at age 28.

The Hawks play the Hornets at 7:00 pm.

Chemistry Problems?

It is reported from the Hawks camp that not only does GM Will Sit have a problem with his board, he also has problems with the Hawks coach. It is reported that Will Sit has criticised Coach Woodson about the way he coaches his players saying that, "Woodson is too strict and punishes them for very pathetic reasons."

Woodson has responded in the media saying, "Those 'pathetic' reasons that Sit has stated happen to be missed free throws, missed lay ups and guys not boxing out. This is all simple stuff that even high schoolers would get harsher punishment for."

Will Sit stated in an interview, "I believe that he should punish his players accordingly. That means that he should turn a blind eye if the guys need to fly out the next day or have a game that evening. He's the one being ridiculous!"

Alright people who read this dynasty.

I'm going to be away for one month in China which means that this will stop for another period of time... unfortunately, I couldn't get this one rolling as fast as I would have liked but expect one more chapter to be realeased before tommorrow's end.

Thank you to those who read and enjoy this dynasty and also to those who have a browse at least too! (Y) I love you all!

Before I pause this though, can I please get some feedback from people. Do you guys think this chapter by chapter thing is effective or do you think I should also put in updates like very short game recaps? I was thinking of doing the chapter thingys and add in just the boxscores of games but I notcie some don't like reading so if I had short recpas... you could all stay updated.

I'm really intrigued by what all of you want.

Well stay safe and merry Christmas and have a happy new year boys! And until January 8, Adios! (Is that how u spell it?)

Yo yo yo.. checking in from China! As I told my friends... this is a rare opportunity for me! lol

Anyways.. to Cloudy... stopped by HK for like 45 minutes before going to a place I don't know how to spell. Starts with S and its like 45 minutes drive out of HK... And we stayed overnight before going to Guangzhou! Anyways.. wats good is that I get to watch the NBA every morning... Lag free! :roll:

Oh yeh.. and after Rockets Boston, got to watch Liverpool vs. Chelsea! Yay... thats bout it... lol Would have rather watched Lakers Bucks today but Beggers cant be choosers!

I doubt i will get to play basketball in china anyways... but im probably not missing out on much... the weather is quite cold. But it would be better than listening to my mom talking to my aunts about not letting me have a gf... (she doesnt know lots of things!) and a lot of things like how she thinks im a very bad kid and stuff like that haha

Well, I will be back to update this and time is counting down to my return. Btw, I'm writing my chapters everyday so that when I come back I can start typing them up to release every 2-3 days... hope you will enjoy!

But while I'm gone... I hope you guys can do me a favour and tell me what you think of the title of this thread and what it means?

Well I'm confused about the "part 1" thing. Part 1 of what and how many? And by legend, you usually think players, but I suppose it could count as meaning GM
