The "How is your Dynasty/Association going" Thread

[skotas28]

Game 5. 99-107
Game 6. 97-107

In both games Miami took the lead early and there was nothing I could do to take over. ECF lost 2-4.

Anyhow I am happy with the season, eliminated Celtics and Bulls in the playoff's without court advantage, gave a good fight to Miami. Miami went to the Finals and beat Clippers 4-2 to win the Championship.

[White Chocolate]

I want to tell you about my NBA 2K12 association.

Team: Nuggets, Rosters: Official, after deadline (March, 19th)

1. I simmed 2011-12 season and PO to the end with no cpu trades allowed (Nuggets lose in conf. finals). Then I turn on trades.

2. Draft and Transactions.
McGee, Fernandez, Miller - new contracts not offerred.

22nd pick - Kendall Marshall (66)
48th pick - Quinn Erwin (52)

FA: Brandon Bass (70) (3+1 yrs, 7 mil 1st year)
Andre Miller (1 yr, ~600 k)

Trades: Corey Brewer, Quinn Erwin, 2nd round draft pick to Dallas for Jason Terry, 2nd round draft pick

So, season begins...

W/L: 2-0. I signed Ron Artest (MWP) for 770 k, 1 year.
W/L: 3-0. Cleveland offers Alonzo Gee, 1st round draft pick for Jordan Hamilton. Trade accepted.

My depth chart at the moment:

Andersen/Bass/Mozgov
Faried/Harrington/Bass
Gallinari/Gee
Afflalo/Terry
Lawson/Marshall(R)/Miller

Inactive: Artest, Koufos.

Some players are upset about playing roles and playing time (Terry and Harrington - role players instead of 6th man, Artest - bench warmer). But I'll try to play with these players and maybe I'll trade some of them before the deadline.

[Klayface]

Playing 2k11 on PS3 with rosters that were up to date prior to the trade deadline.

Start with Toronto and blow up the team. $15 million under the cap and 6 draft picks (Toronto 1st & 2nd rounder, Charlotte 1st, Cleveland 1st, Sacramento 1st, Golden State 1st) when I finish wheeling and dealing.

Starting 5: Aaron Brooks-Klay Thompson-Jamario Moon-Udonis Haslem-Kwame Brown. Eddy Curry takes Kwames starting job to sum up the 5-24 season.

Detroit signs Shaq and trades him to Orlando. Lebron James wins MVP. Knicks are the champions.

I land the 1st 6th 8th 14th 16th picks of the 1st round & the 1st of the 2nd round. I draft a pair of point guards, a shooting guard, small forward, power forward, and center. NBA comparisons: Russell Westbrook, Steve Nash, Stephen Jackson, Lebron James, Dirk Nowitzki, Roy Hibbert.

The real Russell Westbrook takes his talents to Cleveland. Michael Beasley signs with with the Pacers. I sign Ben Wallace and AK47 to 1 and 2 year deals for cheap.

The #1 pick gets hurt 1st game of the year and misses 3 weeks. Current record: 2-2

[skotas28]

Started 2012-2013 campaign. Indiana is 6th in the Power Rankings before the seasons starts. Season objectives: get to the superfinals, R.Hibbert contend for MVP and All-NBA 1st team (2nd team last season). Anthony Davis for ROY. Team Wins 55 at least (44 last season).

First 3 games:

107-103 W @CAVS
100-72 W @WOLVES
103-98 W vs KNICKS

1st game of the season was a hard one, but surprise perfomance by K.Dooling saved the day.. 18pts 5ast 2/4 3pts.
2nd game a trashing of Wolves, one of the lowest allowed scores in a 12min game (me playing the game). A.Davis 16pts 19rbs
3rd game down by 8 after 3Q. But the bench put me back on track at the start of 4Q.

Team's rating on defence is 7th. 8 or 9 players in the team has A or B defensive rating.

Next game vs Spurs.

[Martti.]

Simulating with updated rosters, being Miami.

Tempting trade offer :

[Andrew]

I guess it doesn't hurt to ask.

[skotas28]

next 3 games played:

99-83 W vs Spurs
99-116 L @ Bulls
104-99 W vs Lakers

Season 5-1..

[mpac]

had a rough start with the Knicks as I am having a hard time using Melo - maybe because im not a fan and curious of the possible trade options. started with 4-3 record, then traded melo and fields for Oj Mayo and Rudy Gay. Since then our team improved and made a winning run at 16-5 standing.

I upped the difficulty then it became more challenging. We fell from a tie for the 1st seed with Miami, and now tied with the Bulls on the third seed with 29-14 standing. Managed to win 4 straight but lost to the bobcats, as Amare is injured.

Getting excited with the playoffs. Though I hope i will learn how to use Lin by that time. Rudy Gay is a monster from mid range and very underrated! Scored 43, 35 and 33 in the last three games without amare

[karlsanada10]

Did a fantasy draft today here's what I got with my Rockets:

pg: Stephen Curry/Will Bynum
sg: T-Mac/ Anthony Parker/ Anthony Morrow
sf: Nicholas Batum/ Chandler Parson / Donte Greene
pf: Kris Humphries/ Fry /
c: Roy Hibbert/ Kwame Brown(For the lulz)

And funny thing is, when the transition came out after 1st quarter,

"Kobe w/ the bulls versus Bynum and the New Orleans" wtf.lololol.

[Martti.]

What pick were you? Cause no name really stands out.

[karlsanada10]

Me? I think I'm pick 15? Don't really want to get a superstar since I want T-Mac to bloom again. And Batum too.

[rise]

Not bad for a debut? Also had a game-high plus-minus of 54.

[Cruzerr]

The best way to do a draft is by having Serpentine on, that way, the teams look real.

[kibaxx7]

Having a really, really tough time right now with my job and school. I haven't played a 2k game in two weeks now.

[mpac]

Now with 41-18 standing and with 23 games remaining, we(Knicks) are now in the 2nd seed with 4 games behind Miami for the 1st seed, and Bulls on the 3rd seed with 3 games behind. If the playoffs starts today, we will be facing the celtics, in which I am having a hard time beating as it is a defensive game and I could not provide a run and gun advantage against them

As for my last few games, Miami demolished us but we managed to get back against GS. During the trade deadline, I managed to trade JR smith for Rookies Leonard and Joseph of the Spurs, to provide us young and defensive guards and in preparation for losing Lin in the offseason, as he tends to go FA after the season.

Current starters: Chandler, Amare, Gay, Mayo, Lin
Role Players: Shumpert, Douglas, Kurt Thomas, Leon Powe, Leonard
Bench/Reserves: Novak Bibby Josepth Dampier (I had okur but for unfortunate reasons, he was sent to FA pool again without me releasing him)
DLeague: Rautkins, Harrelson

[karlsanada10]

I sim until a month before Playoffs. I was on 9th seed without my starting PF and C, Kris Humphries and Roy Hibbert. But bounce back to get the 8th seed. Now I'm 3-1 vs Blazers.-.- They're just to strong! I'm a 3pt specialist

Line-up:
Stephen Curry
Tracy McGrady
Wilson Chandler(I think)
Channing Fyre
Brad Miller

All of them can shoot so we stick games. I lose 2 games in a row with Blazers having homecourt advantage. I defeated them though in game 3 since Chandler and T-Mac put up 52pts. The score was 95-103.

game 4 was disastrous, Curry almost didn't play at all since he got fouled often.-.- He played on 4th qtr scoring 8pts of his 10pts. T-Mac did 20pts and 17asts(I was shocked too) and Chandler did 23pts 14 rebounds. but still, we can't win the game. 93-96. Chandler didn't make the potential game-tying shot with 4secs left. all hopes were lost.T_T

Blazers line up
Jeremy Lin
Vince Carter
Rudy Gay
Josh Smith
Amir Johnson

Getting killed with their dunks most of the time.T_T They do a oop from a pick ridiculously often.

[Axel The Great]

Having a really, really tough time right now with my job and school. I haven't played a 2k game in two weeks now.

Same here, man. But the good thing about it is that every game I play every once in a while is really enjoyable; playing a game constantly bores me to the point of making my head hurt.

[karlsanada10]

Managed to get hot on game 5 winning 105-87. Still need 2 games to win. I must not lose my touch. T-Mac and Wilson Chandler are still doing good.

T-Mac 22pts, 12reb, 8asts
W-Chandler 33pts, 2reb, 4asts catching every oop you threw at him.

I managed to contain Rudy Gay and Vince Carter by doing a double team while they are driving. But hell, here comes Gerald Henderson(not sure of his first name) and he killed me.o.O Knocking every shot. I think he was the 6th man of the yr.

[mpac]

82 games is too long for me and i easily get bored when i am not using any of my favorite players in the team so i decided to restart my association.

I now create 58 game association with the thunder. To get my favorite player i traded james harden along with maynor and collison for ray allen euthwane moore and jajuan johnson.

Won my first game against the hawks. Led by 20 then josh smith makes it interesting and got their lead back in the 3rd. We managed to pull away thanks to durants 33 pts 4 reb 5 asst and 4 stls. Westbrook had 21 and rayray with 19

Then i resigned odom hehe to have a backup for ibaka

Started 9-0 with Durant Westbrook and Allen leading the way but had my first loss of the season vs the Nets. Then I got back in winning vs the Pacers by a large margin.I went for a trade for Reggie Jackson, Mohammed for SAC 1st pick and Garcia. This is to have a solid backup for KD.

[MapleMire]

In my association I chose the Sacramento Kings. I simulated the whole first season and did pretty bad. Ended up with only 25 wins. I kept all my players though and didn't trade. Some upsides to that season were that I finally have an All-Star which is Tyreke Evans.

So now I am at the off season. I resigned Jason Thompson and Donte Greene. They are average players that can help this team. I also resigned Terrence Williams as he has proved himself last year by being a solid starting SF averaging 8.6 PPG. I made a contract extension to Tyler Honeycutt as I believe he can make a great impact this year being behind Williams.

Now we are at the draft. I have the 2nd pick overall. I picked Anthony Davis because my PF spot was very weak with only Jason Thompson there. I believe Davis can be an elite PF in the league so I drafted him. I'm really interested in all the young talent here. So I trade Chuck Hayes and a 2013 1st round draft pick to the Jazz for their 8th pick. I draft Austin Rivers because he is a very good scorer. His first year he can come off the bench and light it up. Then I have a couple more old players so I trade John Salmons and Travis Outlaw to the Raptors for their 17th pick. I draft Fab Melo because I believe this kid can back up Demarcus Cousins. He's 7'0 and is a all around center. I also draft Leon George in the second round. Just a filler.

So now that the draft is over. I have my full 2012-2013 Sacramento Kings Roster

Starting 5
-C Demarcus Cousins 84 Star
-PF Anthony Davis 80 Starter
-SF Terrence Williams 75 Starter
-SG Tyreke Evans 84 Star
-PG Isiah Thomas Starter 72

Bench
-SG Austin Rivers 71 Sixth Man
-PF Jason Thompson 68 Role Player
-C Fab Melo 67 Prospect
-PG Jimmer Fredette 67 Role Player
-SF Tyler Honeycutt 66 Role Player
-SF Donte Green 60 Bench Warmer
-C Hassan Whiteside 54 Bench Warmer
-SF Leon George 53 Bench Warmer

This is a very young team right now. Thompson is the oldest being at 26. And Williams is 25. A couple are 24. And the majority are the ages 23,22,21,20. People are doubting us right now but I believe we can compete for the playoffs.

We played our first game against the Suns at home. We beat the suns 100-89.
Our stars played a very impressive game.
Demarcus Cousins had 23 Points and 17 Rebounds.
Tyreke Evans had 27 Points and 5 Assist.

On the other hand the rookies have played a impressive game.
Anthony Davis had 18 Points, 11 Rebounds, and 4 Blocks.
Austin Rivers sparked 10 Points off the bench.
Fab Melo had 6 Points and 7 Rebounds.

Isiah Thomas led the team in Assist with 8
And T-Will had an impressive night with 9 Points and 8 Rebounds.

Lets hope this is a sign that Kings basketball is back.

[Valor]

Just a question for those of you who play association in 2k12...does the team stats bug bother you guys? I'm getting some time to play it now and it's a real turn-off for me

[mpac]

yup very annoying. as for me, I just try to ignore when some highlights during the game shows that my team is averaging about 60 assts or stls per game. and Ironically those came out when the CPU gets a load of steals against me and I only get very few ones.

Yeh man, but that's the only major bug in Association mode right?

[Cruzerr]

Should be Valor, I haven`t seen anything else. Kinda annoys me but ey, I will live with it

[mpac]

Yup i think
