TheBigEasy's Hornets Dynasty

by **TheBigEasy** on Tue Nov 25, 2003 8:06 am

Hi Folks,

now it is time for my dynasty. I just played the first game vs. Orlando. But the set up first.

10 minute quarters
All Star
Andrews sliders with Gamespeed reduced to 42
28 game season, NBA schedule
3-3-3-3 playoffs

Lineup:

C - Jamaal Magloire / Sean Rooks
PF - PJ Brown / David West / Robert Traylor
SF - Jamaal Mashburn / George Lynch
SG - Me (67 ovrl) / David Wesley / Courtney Alexander
PG - Baron Davis / Darrell Armstrong

IL - Stacey Augmon and Bryce Drew

First Game vs. Orlando. And the Magic are as crappy as in real life

, although Tyronn Lue was two Rebs short of a triple double. Here are the game stats:

Code: Select all: Entire Game New Orleans Orlando Points 125 107 Bench Scoring 39 26 Field Goals 54/101 45/95 Field Goal % .535 .474 3 Point FG 11/25 6/24 3 Point % .440 .250 Free Throws 6/8 11/18 Free Throw % .750 .611 Rebounds 47 40 Off. Rebounds 6 5 Def. Rebounds 41 35 Blocks 10 3 Steals 6 1 Assists 35 29 Turnovers 13 10 Fouls 17 5

A little bit too much shots, so I have to tighten up the D next time and use the clock more. 3pts were not that much ... and I hit a good percentage of them. I split the minutes, with the starters getting around 25 and the rest split pretty even. David Wesley was injured midway through the first, but was able to come back later. I never trailed and sometimes led by as many as 30. They never had a chance. Now the players ...

POG was Jamaal Mashburn, who had a triple double with 21 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists. Midway through the fourth I realised, he needed 5 more assists for a triple double ... so he got them

. Jamaal Magloire had 7! blocked shots!

NOH:

Code: Select all: Pts Reb Ast Blk Stl Jamaal Mashburn 21 10 11 0 0 Jamaal Magloire 20 8 3 7 1 Baron Davis 19 4 1 0 2

Magic:

Code: Select all: Pts Reb Ast Blk Stl Tracy MacGrady 21 2 3 3 0 Tyronn Lue 18 8 11 0 0

So ... this was the first win, with much to come

. Next one is vs. the Celtics. So far all my players played very good, especially Mash, JMag and Baron ... but my created SG also. I'll keep you updated.

Ok ... played the second game vs. Boston. Was pretty close all the way, but I still managed to win. Mash got hurt midway through the first, but could return later. I had him sit out the second quarter and returned him late in the third. So he couldnt get a triple double again. But the rest stepped up, Baron Davis was POG with 25 points and 8 boards.

I couldnt stop Paul Pierce, who had 44 points, but they still lost.

Here are the stats:

Code: Select all: Entire Game Boston New Orleans Points 102 107 Bench Scoring 29 36 Field Goals 43/89 42/89 Field Goal % .483 .472 3 Point FG 6/22 8/17 3 Point % .273 .471 Free Throws 10/21 15/19 Free Throw % .476 .789 Rebounds 49 44 Off. Rebounds 6 3 Def. Rebounds 43 41 Blocks 1 6 Steals 4 9 Assists 23 19 Turnovers 13 10 Fouls 15 13

I actually dont know who I will play next

, but I guess I'll win it ...

Scores are kind of high arent they? If you want to try another set of sliders, try Ben's, very realistic IMO.

I get scores around the 90-105.

Well yes ... they are kinda high ... but I guess it is just my playing style. I have to tighten the D and use the clock more.

Anyway ... I have played two more games. @Atlanta and vs. the Lakers. I lost both

.

@Atlanta:

Code: Select all: Entire Game New Orleans Atlanta Points 112 118 Bench Scoring 37 30 Field Goals 45/105 49/100 Field Goal % .429 .490 3 Point FG 4/20 3/15 3 Point % .200 .200 Free Throws 18/21 17/23 Free Throw % .857 .739 Rebounds 55 53 Off. Rebounds 10 4 Def. Rebounds 45 49 Blocks 3 2 Steals 7 4 Assists 22 27 Turnovers 16 11 Fouls 19 15

At times I managed to get away, then them. In the end I managed to rally back from a 10 point deficit to tie it at 102 at the end of regulation. In overtime I wasnt able to pull away, so they won it. Abdur-Rahim killed me in this game. He had 34 pts and 16 boards.

For the Hornets BD was best with 29 pts (9/9 from the line), 3 stl and 6 ast.

Next one was at home vs. the Fakers. I controlled the whole game, right until midway through the fourth. I was up by 20 midway through the 3rd, but they still won.

Code: Select all: Entire Game LA Lakers New Orleans Points 117 110 Bench Scoring 8 35 Field Goals 47/104 52/107 Field Goal % .452 .486 3 Point FG 7/26 3/19 3 Point % .269 .158 Free Throws 16/22 3/5 Free Throw % .727 .600 Rebounds 59 51 Off. Rebounds 11 6 Def. Rebounds 48 45 Blocks 3 5 Steals 1 5 Assists 20 24 Turnovers 8 11 Fouls 5 17

Payton was POG with 32 points and 11 assists. On my side my Rookie David West was quite impressive, posting his first double-double with 12 points and 11 boards. But I still couldnt win. I am still trying to figure out how they could have gotten back into the game.

And I think, I have to trade Sean Rooks or Tractor Traylor, or both. Cause they simply suck. They both cant score anything and on the defensive end they are also not that good.

Or I just delete this dynasty, install Andrews new roster, and start a new one.

Man stick with traylor, i found he was quite good off the bench, you just have to give him the ball when hes got a little bit of space then use the pro hop move, he does dat power dribble thing, then try dunk it, i was getting bout 10ppg and 8rpg with him when i did a NO dynasty.
