HELP PLEASE, what should I use

Okay I got the game new, well not yet, but on its way...I will have no patches for it so what should I use to make it the most realistic game and most enjoyable game such as patches for cyberfaces, courts, shoes, etc. Also what should I use for AI settings and game sliders...how do I get the rookie draft with Oden, how do I put the downloads onto the game (forgot how, havent had live for computer since 04) ANY help would be nice and links provided would be great...Also would liek to mention I would like an updated roster patch...THANKS VERY MUCH

Look that topic, there's links for the best patches... Just choose the ones you like most

Maybe try the SUM?(Supreme Update Mod) you can see that in the annocement section

how do I apply downloads and patches?

For most artwork patched just drop the files in your sgsm folder which is located in your main NBA Live folder. For other patches just read the readme if it is present. Also check this out.

Just instead of NBA Live 06 in that tutorial just use 07 .
