So has anyone got any trade ideas for Yao?? He really is wasted on my team and I wanted to add some drama, I thought I would try to improve my depth by trading him, but that might be harder than I thought.

Even though I haven't read all the recaps yet, this automatically puts you up at the top as one of the best dynasties on here. I love the way you have the setup with the magazine and the pages inside the mag. Very creative.

As for the Yao Ming trade, I don't think you should trade him because I know the Rockets wouldn't trade him at all even though I think he is overrated. I think you should just keep him and try to work with him a little bit because he is pretty easy to use in the game because he is so tall and he has a decent rating. Keep up the good work and this dynasty has a great start to it. :wink:

Thanks for all the great comments guys.

Ive been playing round with some Yao trades, and one that works which really supprises me is with Detroit. I give them Yao (83) Howard (69) Jackson (62) and they give me Wallace (Ben) (87) Antonio McDyess (61) and I think it was Delfino (60).

What do you think, I know neither Houston or Detroit would trade their main big men, but im in 2005-2006 and Detroit had a pretty crap season last year (i think) so maybe they are trying to mix things up as they have almost the same team as they did two years ago.

Anyway you will proabaly experience a downtime from X-Mas till bout the 2nd of Jan, so until then good gaming and happy holidays. :D

i'm glad you decided to go with this format like we talked about (Y)

very good......and if yao is wasted on your team, wouldn't any center be wasted? but anyway, yao on the pistons would be cool.

hallo my friend!where are you from?well i want to send you my ideas because i dont know where else to send them and if you can send them to people responsible!(do a copy and paste!!
1)the steals to be less from the players and not to steal so easily!
2)by pushing the button pass along with the directional stick to have the opportunity to give straight direct pass and a lob pass
3)
0the fakes to be better and to the stars of each team like tracy makcrady to be effective and outside the 3 point line and not to stel the ball of him so easily
4)to have the double team a little bit better and when the help comes to the big guy not to run with such a great speed!and when you pass the ball outside to the free player the defender who comes to him to be from the yard
5)the introduction to be like nba-live 2004 with real nba players
6)to have injury list so you can put players in their 2 the most and frozen their big contracts
7)to have the opportunity and sign players for a few months contracts from the free agents and with little money!
8)to have the opportunity and change the rosters and from the other teams and play like real nba!

lol... that was random.

awesome magazine. donatello, it wouldnt be the same i think, cause ben wallace wouldnt be wasted. hes not there to score, hes there to get boards, blocks, steals.

however i luv jimmy jackson, but hes been traded in real nba so y not trade him in ur dynasty. also, i think itd be fun if u had a favorite C that really sucked but had potential... and tried to make him defensive player of the year or something lol... not a real crappy player, but i mean like a erick dampier, or even a jeff foster type player

hallo my friend!where are you from?well i want to send you my ideas i added some moreand thats complete because i dont know where else to send them and if you can send them to people responsible!(do a copy and paste!!
1)the steals to be less from the players and not to steal so easily!
2)by pushing the button pass along with the directional stick to have the opportunity to give straight direct pass and a lob pass
3)
0the fakes to be better and to the stars of each team like tracy makcrady to be effective and outside the 3 point line and not to stel the ball of him so easily

7)to have the opportunity and sign players for a few months contracts from the free agents and with little money!
8)to have the opportunity and change the rosters and from the other teams and play like real nba!
Some extra things I want to add!
9)to have introduction of the 5 players of each team at the beginning of each game
10)to watch when the match ends and you go at the menu the results of the other games down at the buttom of the screen like nba-live2004
11)when you jump and in the air you decide to give pass the player who you give him the pass takes a long time to get hold of the ball.make that time less
12)to play the other team multipule defences inside and during the game
13)in some timeouts to have the chance a little bit of stamina of the players to get it high
14)to make the game more difficult to have a level of that because I play it on the more difficult and I found it easy
