[Kemp]

Pretty cool charity game I must say. It should be a good one to watch. Now, I get to see your first game recap. Where can I buy the tickets?

[Devin112]

[zmac]

Great Idea!!!
What Jerseys you gonna use for Adidas all stars? Or you gonna make your own?

[Null17]

he already did

and oh. just tell me if you want to still do that collabo thing devin

[ShAuN]

Thats nasty man good idea. Cant wait till u accually start the dynasty

[Devin112]

Hey guys, I've got the game but I won't be able to play much today, I have some stuff I have to take care of. But it's installed and everything, I need to DL a roster update from the annoucements forum and I'll be ready to go. Look for a update either late late tonite or tomorrow.

Zmac, yeah I've made the jerseys and there's a preview on the 4th page.

Null17, yeah man I still wanna do that collabo. Please send me those jerseys, would you be cool if I used them as the Spurs default jersey?

Good luck guys, I think u're all probably busy playing it right now you lucky bastards! I have to write a paper

Have fun can't wait to see ur first games!

[Mark.]

Looking foward to it dude, hey has Devin112 always been your login name, cos if this is your first Dynasty your doing bloody well. Are you atcually gonna do that Team Reebok vs Team Adidas thing or is it just a tease

Anyway good luck for the first game

[zmac]

Oh yeh, I saw the article of the Jerseys when you brought it out
And i think i commented on it

[Devin112]

YO YO YO! Just finished my first full game after some time creating Korolev, Singleton, and Blatche. I'm saving my full fled coverage for the regular season, so I'm going to keep preseason and the Adidas game simple. Let everything die down a bit, let everyone get their intial LIVE fix out of the way, then the GAME will be on. The Adidas jersey will make it's debute....you guessed it at the Adidas vs RBK game. My new Clipper jerseys will make it's debute opening night of the season. This is my first dynasty, so I really didn't know how to recap the game while I was playing. Forgot to take the MATCH UP screen, etc... I'll get better I promise

1st Quarter:
The Clippers started off the game very rusty and even made the mistake of focusing too much on Marbury and Crawford, allowing Richardson and Taylor to score too many easy points. The quarter ended with a Richardson 3 pointer. Elton Brand was the only shinning point on the Clippers offense. Clippers down by 7.

2nd quarter:
Coach D put in the reserves to see how they've come along over the summer. CJ Miles hit his first 2 three pointers to everyone's surprise and that got the game close. He might come in very handy this year as Mobley's first quarter performance showed some rust. Motumbo and Griffin did what they were brought in for, and that was play defense and get some blocks. Still, wasn't enough as the Knicks went up by 10 points at halftime.

3rd quarter:
Finally Mobley and the rest of the starters knocked out the cobwebs and put together a decent run getting within 2 points. That was when the Knicks rookie point guard Nate Robinson decided to put it into afterburner and scored some pretty easy points taking it to the rack. Knicks retained their 10 point lead.

4th quarter:
Clippers problem this quarter were freethrows. Had they hit them, we might of been talking about a victory but rust was very apparent at the line. Clippers still managed to tie the game with one minute remaining but Taylor started to grab offensive boards and had easy putbacks. That pretty much sealed the game.

Highpoints: Rookies, CJ Miles and Yaroslav Korolev put in some decent mins. They didn't have the stamina or fundamentals to play major mins yet, but look for Clippers to develop them and turn them into solid players.

Lowpoints: Freethrows and interior defense.

Images from the game:

I played this game in exhibition mode, so wasn't able to get box score. You know what, all this time I've planned out the graphics but didn't even think about presentation quality. I need to up my game a bit more, take better pics and try to recap the game better. Remember, ALL OF THIS is temporary, the regular season will look totally different. Well that's it, hope you liked my very first game recap.

[Jugs]

Tough luck on the loss... nice recap kinda looks like mine and nice pics from the game

and the tv is awesome, i cant wait till you produce your meat

[Devin112]

Man, my recap sucks compared to yours! argh! didn't think it would be so hard, but I'll do better next time.

Sorry if it looks like yours JUGS, ur style just looks like the way it should be done ya know? It's like you invented the wheel, so we gots to bite ya know!

[Isaiah]

tough loss.............

anyway, this is just your first game..plus you still need to get the feel of it...but dont worry..im sure youll come out strong!

[Null17]

nice recap. love the 3d-ish logos on the show. guess your using the verizon play of the day highlight thingie on the regular season?

[Jugs]

Man, my recap sucks compared to yours! argh! didn't think it would be so hard, but I'll do better next time.

Sorry if it looks like yours JUGS, ur style just looks like the way it should be done ya know? It's like you invented the wheel, so we gots to bite ya know!

lol no hard feelings... if this is your first dynasty story ever, then you've done a good job, the write ups will come to you eventually...

[Devin112]

Thanks for the words on encouragement Isaiah, appreciate it man. I'll get em next time!

Null, yeah, I'm saving that for the season too. Are you still doing Stallion vision?

Thanks JUGS, I'll try to do better next time Man, it makes me realize how truly good urs is.

[Its_asdf]

As stated before, your style of recaps are very similar to Jugs, but that's not a big issue at all because it is a very neat and organized format to use. Good luck on your next pre-season game man, and don't worry, you'll eventually get used to writing long ass recaps, it just comes in time.

[The X]

it's adsf is the master of them and Pape features

just find the format that is best for you and run with it

[Null17]

Null, yeah, I'm saving that for the season too. Are you still doing Stallion vision?

yeah pretty much. until I can think of something better

[[C][B]#4]

tough loss..you'll rebound after that loss. The recap was pretty decent..the format's real clean..i like that as Its_asdf said..you'll get used to writing long ass recaps once u write it a few more times. I luv the tv with bill and melissa. Ur making me jealous cuz u got the game..i still didn't get it yet...have to wait till the weekend to get it..

[Its_asdf]

it's adsf is the master of them and Pape features

Haha, nah man. My recaps weren't that good, I'm thinking of shortening them anyway because I don't think that many people would want to read such a long ass recap anyway.

[kibaxx7]

Tough loss... but great pics (of game and the TV) Good luck next game man.

[nbalive744]
