Chris Duhon scoring 30 points and Eddy Curry grabbing seven rebounds; two things that need to be addressed in NBA Elite 11. ;)

They had total control of rebounding. Aldridge seems to have lost his touch lately (or his height?).

Good stuff! Love the gamewinner, shame the crowd reactions still leave a little to be desired in NBA Live 10 as they should have gone ballistic. At least the players reacted to it. ;)

That's true, but they did at least do the 'beat LA' chant at one point. (Y)

It was quite a strange game. I was leading by 19 half way through the third quarter. Second time I've almost thrown away a lead against them. :?

Nice gamewinner. (Y) To emphasize Andrew's point, the crowd goes wild when the home team makes a three to take the lead or to tie the game, so why don't they go ballistic when a game-winner is made? In my dynasty I usually blow big leads, like Andrew said, it's the referees. :lol:

Close call. Funny that the crowd was more excited for an opponent missing a gamewinner than Durant hitting the one against the Lakers, still some fine tuning required with the reaction AI.

Chicago played at the same level as Phoenix. They'll definitely be a force in the Eastern playoffs. (Y) (I think they're 3rd atm)

If you were shooting poorly in that one, Detroit's field goal percentage must have been atrocious.

Luckily for me my defense was still strong, so they didn't manage to get a sizeable lead. I think I was shooting 23% in the first quarter. :|

19 games to go. 5 more wins to tie my 20 game winning streak. :D
