Skillmatic, Delonte was great. Hopefully Big Ben and Z can handle D12.

Chaser7, Yeah! Just wanted some realism, and they did play some great teams so I kinda liked their preseason schedule.


Keep following guys.. Thank you! :D

It's a shame that I'm such a sucker for the graphical side of the game, because the rest of this dynasty is awesome: great presentation, really enjoyable "behind the scenes". Can't wait for the regular season!

(Oh yes, and don't worry about improving the graphics, they're good already, only the EA default Seattle jerseys look really...off-colour.)

NBA China Games 2007

NBA China Games 2007: A Battle of Young Superstars

Image

The NBA China Games 2007 are comprised of three games featuring the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Orlando Magic and the China Men’s National Team. NBA China Games 2007 will tip off on Oct. 17 with a game between the Cavaliers and the Magic in Shanghai at the Qizhong Forest Sports City arena with a capacity of 13,708. The event will then head to Macao where there will be two games at the new Venetian Arena with a capacity of 15,000. On Oct. 18, the Magic will take on the China Men’s National Team, and a rematch between the Magic and the Cavaliers will take place on Oct. 20.

While many prepare to enjoy a relaxed and entertaining atmosphere at the NBA China Games, Dwight Howard is staying as serious as anybody.

The Orlando Magic center has one task in mind - to dunk over LeBron James in front of Chinese fans.

"If he's around the rim, I'm pretty sure I'm going to dunk the ball on whoever is around," said the 22-year-old All-Star forward. "I'm going to try to break the rim there in China."

Howard, the first overall selection in the 2004 NBA draft, believes the China games will be crucial to his side's preparation for the upcoming season.

"We take it seriously," he said. "Our team is really trying to focus on working on our defense, and the China Games are a pretty good chance to see where we are defensively.

James was not as concerned about the upcoming challenge with Howard. Enjoying the game is his first priority.

"I feel comfortable every time I come to China, so the number one thing for me is to enjoy my game here," he said. "I want my Chinese fans to enjoy the games as well, we will try to show the best of our basketball."

Ouch tough loss and even worse Lebron got dunked on D12. Next game Bron Bron has gotta get revenge!

Also, why is the text so splotchy? Anyway to fix it, it'd make it look better, I mean its fine, just a small suggestion. Skillimatic has this problem too, don't know why..

Chaser7, I think its because I sharpen the pic so the text kinda gets that splotchy thing. D12 got me on that one I tried to get away from him but it was too late... :(

Hopefully, I can get LJ to dunk on him on the next game.. I’ll try.. :mrgreen:

Which program are you using to save the images? You might want to reduce the compression when saving the .jpg files.

You mean the program I use to edit? I use Arcsoft PhotoStudio. The screens are way too big so I really had to make them smaller, and that was the reason I sharpened the pics so that it isn’t blurry..

Anyway, thanks for checking in Sir Andrew!

Cavs All-Access: NBA China Games (Day 6)

Postby homicide1550 on Wed Mar 12, 2008 1:34 am

NBA China Games (Day 6) - Cavaliers Public Workout

Image

“OOOHHHHH!” echoed through the gym as Lebron James threw down an alley-oop from a half court pass from Daniel Gibson.

“Damn! That was sick ‘Bron!” Delonte West exclaimed with a grimace on his face.

That dunk ended the Cavaliers practice as reporters were allowed to go and talk with the players. Almost all of them went to surround NBA Superstar Lebron James.

“Huh? Man, Why do you have all the attention dawg? Don’t they know I’m the most good-looking player in the NBA?” Damon Jones jokingly told James.
James replied with a smile and shoving Damon lightly.
“Just kiddin’ man, I’ll go and take some shower. See yah later!” said Jones while walking towards the locker room.

“Okay guys, I am ready! So who wants to ask first?” asked James.
“Lebron, how is your stay here in China?” a Chinese reporter asked.
“Well, it has been pretty good. The people here are friendly and what do I have to say, they kinda like me here.”
“They love you here! By the way, have you seen your Nike billboards around here? What are your thoughts about that?”
“For me, growing up, I never thought about having a billboard anywhere. You see them locally, and then you start seeing them a little bit nationwide. And now worldwide. It's like, wow. It's like extra credit. It's unbelievable. You would never think that you could have your face somewhere else where you don't even live,” replied James.
“What did you think about Dwight Howard’s dunk on you the other night?” asked the American journalist.
“Did you have to bring that one up?” James with a smirk on his face.
“Well that was a nasty one. I tried not to get outta the way but Dwight got me. But it is all good, me and Dwight are good friends, it is all for fun but I would really be happy if I can get one on him before this tour ends.”

Finally, after about 10 minutes. Lebron bid farewell to the media and invited them to see their game on Thursday, as he head on to the locker room to freshen up.

__________________

Meanwhile, Coach Mike Brown was sitting in the locker room when his cellphone rang.

“Hello, coach Brown speaking..”
“Hi Coach! How’s the team doin? This is Zoilo, management wanted me to call you...”
“Oh, it’s been great here, but our team seems to be still struggling to play with one another. So what’s this all about?”
“So you’ve not read some news around the league huh? Danny and I have talked about this and both of us had the same idea.”
“Go on, I am listening.” Brown said.
“Since we won’t be picking up the contracts on one of our D-League guys, we decided to pick this young player off the waiver wire, we really think that he could be another piece to our championship puzzle. He is raw but I think he can fit our system.”
“Oh, really? I do hope you guys are right. Who is it then...”
“We’ll let you know once you come back here in Cleveland. Take care of our guys over there.”
