Really annoyed that I lost this one. I started the game with a 20-4 run as well.

Looks like both of them turned out to be pretty competitive. So close to the triple double with Griffin there.

9/2/14

2014 NBA All-Star weekend rosters announced

All-Star Game

The selections for the 2014 NBA all-star game have been announced today.

Rookies vs Sophomores Game

Good to see you've got a representative for both events.

I'm used to having 3 guys picked for the all-star game, but only Durant made it this year. Miami still got their usual 3 selections though, even after trading Wade.

I'm usually fond of the Nuggets' jerseys, but that green scheme is just awful for them....

-----
Marshall fouled out late in the third quarter. I never really had a chance with 4 lumbering big men as my bench.

Ah well. At least Young got MVP honours.

I guess Live 10 has fallen out of my game rotation at the moment. I'll get to the all-star game eventually though.

Just catching back up with this, too bad Rose got snubbed, should definitely be an all-star with his numbers

I guess Live 10 has fallen out of my game rotation at the moment. I'll get to the all-star game eventually though.

It happens. I want to pick up my 06 Dynasty again and at least finish the current season, since I'm about halfway through the Playoffs.

I'm going to do something different this season. Seeing as I only have Durant playing in the all-star game, I'm going to use the player lock feature. I've been meaning to use it in some capacity for a while now but haven't found a reason to. It'll be interesting to see how the game goes.

Is the player lock feature is better?

Is the player lock feature is better?

It is if you want to control a single player for the entire game. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it.

Ahh ok. Thanks

Well technically it should be called position lock as you control every player that plays in the same position as the player you are using. I guess it's better than doing nothing whilst your player sits on the bench though.
