NBA Franchise of the Year: Passion. Pride. Pacers.

[Vinsane]

Solid win, Sheed with the double/double, and five blocks. Way to get back on the winning side Mike.

 

[goDawgs1433]

Damn, 5 blocks for Sheed? Nice work on D.

haha, no kidding. Things are starting to look up again, thank god.

Seems like Sheed is really helping on the defensive end.

Granger continues to get his 25/6/6. Becoming LeBron like...even though he's actually older than LeBron and Carmelo haha..

Granger is my poor man's Lebron with a much better outside shot.

Not gonna lie. Wallace looks like a d-bag in that jersey.

He seems to be putting up the same numbers as Tyler too.

Damn, 5 blocks for Sheed? Nice work on D.

Except better D.

Haha @ d-bag comment. Yep, I'm not looking for sheed to shoulder the load or anything but he's a very good 4th scoring option and has already shown he's a presence in the middle. Ricky Davis has been sub-zero in these past few games though. wtf :irked:

 

[mfbmike]

DEROZAN!!!!!

Can you tell em how the hell you get everyone to avg close ppg. For me its always Durant going like 28 ppg then eveyrone else is 24 a game. For you you got everyone av over 25 a game.

Um, not sure. I do use the release date rosters though and just edit them manually with the necessary trades before I start chises. I hate the rating tinkering that 2k does just because a guy has a good/bad week or something. It doesn't make sense when for chises. The release date rosters are a decent medium.

And derozan is doing well in NY. Too bad they are still sucking. lol.

lol @ TJ. Pretty funny and that must hurt you deep inside. Nice job getting through December.

Deep inside, it stings a little.

Player Of The Game:

Danny Granger

Quote Of The Game:
"Tempers flared when Jamal's foul sent Mario to the ground clinching his leg. You know Rasheed would have loved to get into it with the other guys but he kept his cool. When Mario went down with the injury, their offense crippled and we just did what we had to do to get this win." - Danny Granger

I tried using your sliders but every game i play with your sliders i shoot in the 30-40% every game and can only score 10-20 points per quarter..lol

Nice win by the way, lol at Rasheed keeping his cool...lol

They are meant to be challenging but you have to tweak them a bit until you find them to your liking.

That's tough to hear dabestlaker, because i had to make mikes harder so i dont shoot 60%


oh, and btw mike, i dont see you losing for a long time. All-star team, wtf

Ricky would never be confused for an all-star. Rasheed and Jamal, long shot. Granger and Kaman more than likely.

wow i missed the whole playoffs and the draft shittt

lol yeah, that was a while ago. :chomp:

Good shit Mike!

Miami have a killer lineup as always in the second season.

I did the Marion/O'Neal trade and then they go and sign Marion out of Free Agency. :rofl: fuckin Pat Riley.

 

[Flight24]

from a numbers standpoint wallace isnt much greater than hansbrough. i know you're much much better off with sheed though.

atta boy mike.

 

[Lupe]

I did tweak them but if i put the shooting slider lower i miss every thing, and if i move the shooting sliders higher i make everything. and if i keep them where they are at i shot 30-40%..lol idk what to do to help them out..

Run some plays

 

[goDawgs1433]

Nice win over the Heat, mike. I'm loving this shit.

 

[mfbmike]

Thanks guys.

Danny Granger was able to rise up for a number of dunks in the Pacers matchup against the Kings on his way to a game high 27 points.

- Crawford dishes to Granger to cap off the break with a stuff
- Williams takes advantage of a height mismatch and throws one down on Miller
- Crawford splits the Kings defense with an acrobatic finish at the rim
- Granger takes it coast to coast before rising up above Bobby Jackson for a jam

Player Of The Game:

Danny Granger

Quote Of The Game:
"They came out of the half aggressively and put us back on our heels heading into the 4th. All too often last season, we'd collapse in the 4th. But tonight, we buckled down and got the stops we needed in the 4th to come away with this win on the road." - Danny Granger

[goDawgs1433]

Wow, nice win. Granger went off!

 

[Vinsane]

Just missed the triple double, keep winning Mike!

 

[mfbmike]

The Kings GM made a dumb move, sending away their 1st round pick and Beno Udrih to the Hornets to get Posey last season.

With that pick, the Hornets got Earl Clark, who is now starting for them. lol.

I'd say they are getting better. Hawes and Thompson are solid young big men and K-Mart is good. They just need some expiring contracts or hold on to some lottery picks. They have 20 mill coming off the books for themselves this offseason so that's not too bad.

lol thanks for the shoes advice, apparently he was just wearing the generic ones. NEW KICKS SON.
