Dunk Contest Practice

by **Donte Thomas** on Thu Aug 12, 2004 6:11 am

For the dunk contest, how many of you guys are going to be practicing the dunk contest before entering the all-star weekend in your dynasty. I know I am, cause when i show my screens for the dynasty and all star weekend, i want my dunks to be SICK! :twisted:

*creepy laugh* hahahahahahahahahhahaha!

Yeah I wanna win :lol:

by **Riot** on Thu Aug 12, 2004 6:31 am

yeah, ill practice everything and get semi-use to it before I start my dynasty.

by **Wormy10** on Thu Aug 12, 2004 8:39 am

Yep....i'll be practicing too

It wouldn't be wise to go into a dunk contest in Dynasty mode without some practice. You'd either have to not really want to win or just up for a huge challenge. (Although it'll be quite a stupid challenge.)

I've pretty much made up my mind that I'm not going to go into the dunk contest before hand. Meaning, I'm going to try (note, I said try!!) and wait till I've actually gotten to the all-star game in my dynasty. This way I'll have the insentives to keep me interested. At the day of the All Star game, I'll just save...exit & practice. When I feel I'm stable enough to kick some ass, I'll play it. If I lose that'll make it all the more interesting for the next year. :twisted:

Oh, I rambled a bit, didn't I? Hihihi, excitement.

Yes, I'll practice my dunks before competing in the dunk contest. (If I'm admitted that is.) :wink:

It would be my luck i'd get invited to the dunk competition and get injured or something :cry:

you would probably still be able to do it.......but wouldnt it be cool to get injured IN the dunk competition

maybe hit your head on the rim and get a concusion or a brain hemorage and have to be rushed out on a stretcher

by **thaKEAF** on Thu Aug 12, 2004 9:39 am

I don't think I will. :oops:

I want the dunk contest and the other All-Star events to be a suprise in my dynasty, but that's just me.

I might spend too much time playing the dunk contest before starting a new Dynasty and exploring the rest of the game, but it is new so I won't be waiting for an invitation in Dynasty Mode.

Now I'd do what Wormy10 said and rather be invited to the All-Star Game and dunk contest cause who know's it might go to waste. Or maybe it won't. But it still can. No, i'm good at Live, i'll get invited. but what about just in case. Uhhhhhhhhh. *cursing at myself* Omg, i'm lost. :doh:

LOL. why do u guys care about these stuff.. "Are u gonna practice for the dunk contest"? who cares if other ppl will practice. So irrelevant to this NBA Live 2005 General Issues Forum.

Actually, it is relevant. Just because you don't care to take part in discussions where people talk about what they plan to do with the new modes or what they plan to do with the game doesn't mean it's irrelevant or that nobody else cares.

by **John-John Joe** on Sun Aug 15, 2004 1:15 pm

Yeah man, no doubt. I'm actually looking forward to it. I've been waiting for a dunk contest since Lakers vs. Celtics and by george, I'm going to play it into the ground!.........

by **Wormy10** on Sun Aug 15, 2004 5:06 pm

I havent been waiting that long myself.....but I too will be playing it into the ground

by **C89KF** on Wed Aug 18, 2004 2:55 pm

It would be hard to go into allstar weekend without having practise. Especially when you just play the game. The Dunk Contest would be "harder than you think". I would practise it over and over again to get the hang of it.

Can't wait for the release!

by **Alcoholic** on Thu Aug 19, 2004 6:08 am

I think everybody will go practice to some extent. I mean, playing through the Dynasty, getting invited, and you can't even do a simple dunk? I'd at least want to be able to do something... :lol:

I'll start with the basics, then I'll play, and let the rest of the game come to me. :cool:

by **TheFranchiseKing** on Thu Aug 19, 2004 9:19 am

I am going to practice. I think it's going to be the first thing I do when I turn on the game. Does anyone know if the dunk contest is online? This way we could have some serious battles!!!

by **Donte Thomas** on Thu Aug 19, 2004 1:05 pm

that would be like, really really cool.

No the dunk contest mode won't be online. I read it in one of those preview articles.

by **Donte Thomas** on Thu Aug 19, 2004 2:07 pm

that woulda been tight though.
playing others in a dunk contest. what about xbox live, playing your dyansty againest others that didn't choose your dynasty. i'll explain later.

by **TheFranchiseKing** on Fri Aug 20, 2004 2:37 am

Damn!! I was hoping it was!! There is always next year. This game sounds great without it.
