Nice recap...how many game are left before the playoffs?

[Martti.]

11. 3 weeks are full of games.. Last two weeks are gameless.. I think I'll do a two week recap and then a one week recap. I'm thinking, what would spice up the playoffs recaps.

If anyone has any ideas, that'll be great..

[Lamrock]

Nice recap, but is sucks that your win streak was ended by ATLANTA. I don't know what you can do to improve the playoffs.... Can't wait for the next update. Also, be sure to participate in the predictino game in my Association.

[TheBeast]

Cool man,you need to give Arenas some rest because Daniels needs more playing time + you need Arenas in the playoffs Good luck

[Effekt]

I seriously can't wait for the playoffs, and Arenas should be MVP and Tyrus should be ROTY, not to mention the Wizards should win the playoffs.

[Marquis]

Haha the winning streak ended. Seriously this streak was not so realistic

[Elbeen]

yeah not so realistic for the wizards though

[Martti.]

I dpn't know what's up with the CPU. I simulate, I'm up by 10-20 and when I'm not, CPU makes 4-5 turnovers in the 4th quarter and he misses lay-ups. Checked the sliders, all Ok. They make turnovers like 24 second shot vialation, comes in the double-teams and loses the ball a lot.. My team chemestry is well under 50%.. I don't know why I keep winning..
I play at Superstar, I'd understand if i would play at Rookie, i will win a lot.. I'm looking for some good gameplay fix's to stop this. I think i'll go with Jimmy's.. Cause if this continues, I'll get 0 replies from you guys and playoffs will be to easy.. I have installed Pdub's Aiact, the Cpu shouldn't make decisions like leave the ball to a center with 3 on the shot-clock.

Earlier this season, a game against Boston, that i won, Michael Olowokandi shot a three, Boston was down by 3. It was an air-ball.. Then i make the free-throws, then Perkins shoot's an air-ball..

[TomCat]

yeah that is strange. live 07 has some really stupid gameplay problems. I still am liking this dynasty, but i will be honest with you>>it has lost some of its "spark", sorry. need some more losses, or something like that. but of course i dont want you to lose deliberately

hopefully you can make it bit more interesting

[TheBeast]

I don't know man.Stupid EA.But I think you should take some good Free Agents next season because you need to give a rest to Arenas,Gordon and the others

[Lamrock]

Wow... I never knew the AI was that bad. You should probably get a fix for it. This is still looking great though, and it is still the #2 Live 07 Dynasty (and the #1 active one).

Making the finals will be hard for the Wizards.

An impossible dream?

The Washington Wizards are on a season, that might end with a franchise
record of wins. Current record 60 came from the 1974–75 season, when they lost the
NBA finals. The Wizards, lead by Gilbert Arenas are looking to bring a second
championship to D.C. What's the key to their success? They have had no injuries this
season. Gilbert is having a MVP season, Tyrus is the main candidate for this years best
Rookie. Ben Gordon is on his way to Most Improved Player award and Eddie Jordan
is looking to pick up a Coach of the Year award. They play offensive basketball and
so far it has brought success. But when the playoffs come, it will be hard. Arenas is
stealing league's second best steals. Tyrus and Curry are averaging above one block and
above one steal.. Gordon is contributing well for this young team. The bench is starting
to step it up, thanks to the playing time they're seeing. Daniels has had some really good
games off the bench. He and Hayes are playing almost 20 minutes now and that's good -
Arenas, Gordon, Tyrus and Jamison are resting for playoffs and they are seeing playing
time to be ready, when their time comes.. They're success have come from playing well
in the first half and also, by finishing strong. They will probably face the Bulls in first round.
A team, they agreed on a blockbuster deal. Sending Caron Butler and Deshawn Stevenson
to Bulls. They acquired Gordon and Thomas. This deal worked better to the Wizards. Gordon
and Tyrus are combining 39 points, 15 board, 5 assists, 3 steals.. While Deshawn and Butler
are combining a little under 20 points. They're a defensive minded team. The Bulls and the
Wizards are 2-1 this season, Wizards leading, one game is yet to be played. The game
is at the Verizon Center.

The playoffs will be tough to the team, who has the best record this year. Making to the Finals
will be really tough. this year the East is looking better ehn the West. Making to the East
finals will be tough, more tougher will be to make the finals. Ofcourse they'll have the home
court advantage in each round.

If you guys have any ideas, how do improve this dynasty, let me know by PM!
Something to change in the recaps. I'm thinking to either make these or recap
every game in the week.. Like Effekt's, BASiC's and RnB*-'s dynasties. All ideas by PM!

[looser]

Impossible is nothing...

Great article great presentation...All great!!!

Keep it up

[NBJ]

Impossible is nothing...

No, impossible is 0 Great dynasty, keep it up

[danielhalamit]

Have you checked if CPU Assistance is on?
It's there to create a more close game, so in big leads you'll see a lot of wasted possesions on both ends of the court, as well as missed shots (including wide open lay ups)

[Pistol]

Agent 0 in playoffs, I can't effin gwait it's gona be so effin exciting...Good luck against Bulls and trying to gert as much momentum goin into the playoffs as possible...

-km- I am doing a Wizards association do you care if I use your recap layout?

[NBAFanatic23]

Well, to improve your recaps, you could add a "Play of the Game" feature. All you'd have to do is take a video of a replay (with a camcorder or digital camera) that you thought was the best out of the game, and upload it to Photobucket or Youtube or something. It would be a pretty cool addition in my opinion, and would make your recaps helluva lot better.

[WhoElseCouldItB]

hey thnx again for the offer on using some of ur material...i got some good stuff from you and hopefully you'll follow my dynasty to see it. But anyway...good luck with this dynasty, it looks awesome!!!

[Martti.]

Sure, use it.

Fraps doesn't work for me. I'm testing out other programs right now. If I get one working properly, I'll do it.

[Aircam]

In the Playoffs u must play very good in defense, and no fast break... Just easy man, and I think U can destroy every team. Now I am in the FINALS with Lakers in LIVE 07 (61-21). Kings 4-0, Nuggets 4-3, Spurs 4-2, Pistons 3-3

[Cornerthree]

Pretty good read, I always like the way you run this dynasty...

For the playoffs, I'd say you should post recaps for two games in a row...I'd do that If I were you, It's easier and I think It's more enjoyable, not like when you have to wait for a single game recap for two-four days...

I bet you'll end up with 67 or 68 wins, though I doesn't matter 'cause you already have the first spot in the east, do you? Good luck man...

The new black-red ball will replace the current game ball.

NBA signs Nike as official ball purveyor.

The NBA players are not completely satisfied with the current game-ball, that was put in
use at the start of this season. It even made little scars on players hands. Players like Steve
Nash and Dirk Nowitzki. The NBA Head Commissioner David Stern was pretty strict, saying
the ball doesn't change. Finally the players word was heard and Stern decided to sign new
ball purveyor. Spalding has been replaced by Nike. They introduced the new game-ball Nike
N-Style 2.1. This ball has better grip and the balls material is much more comfortable then the
current ball.. The color-theme is much more colorful. A multicoloured ball will be pretty hard to
get used to. The previous balls have all been orange. The NBA stars had a few days to test the
ball.. Here are their thoughts :



Tracy McGrady : This ball fits so well in my hands. This ball is great for dunking, shooting and dribbling..
I think it's better then the last one.
Dwyane Wade : This ball is pretty good. I presonally liked the old one better, mostly cause of the color.
It's pretty variegated. But it's all right. It's perfect for driving the lane..




Kevin Garnett : For a big men this ball fits perfectly. When someone passes it to me to the post,
it's perfect for backing down my defender, making a couple fast dribbles. And finishing. It fits very well.
Gilbert Arenas : I love this ball. It's perfect for dribbling. It's texture is better then the old ones.
It's perfect for shooting. Go Nike! Although I'm and Adidas athlete.
