In my first franchise year my go-to-guy Lebron James is gonna be out for 4 weeks! He is averaging 33/5/6 for the Cavs. I can't believe it, I wanted to make the playoffs this year, I am 10-5 now, playing only 29 x 48 min games a season.

That's my line-up:

E. Curry 69
T. Chandler 69
L. James 94 or 92
K. Rush 58
Hart 58

Bench:
Duhon 56
Pawlowic 54
Haislip 58
this very tall 34-rated chinese center
and 3 other young guys I cant remember but who have to step up now

Ok, that's it, just wanted to do some crying :)

ouch that's tough. Your roster is barely average so be prepared for some really hard and intense games without your franchise player.

good luck

I second that ouch. Tough break, but at least it will make things interesting and challenging. I'd suggest getting the ball to Curry and Chandler in the low post a lot more often, between them they might be able to pick up some of the slack on offense.

Don't underrate Kareem Rush. He is a solid scorer, and a pretty decent defender. I would agree with Andrew about feeding the post, but dont hesitate to knock it back out to Rush for three.

It's gonna be tough without LeBron, believe me, I know. I lost him for 2 weeks with back spasms, and while it was tough, I was still winning, because I got the ball to Kwame Brown and Drew Gooden who became unstoppable inside.

is lebron that good in LIVE? I mean his ratings are high, but if you think about it, he can shoot, but you can't really call him a shooter. He's fast, but not fast enough to be a SG. He can certainly dunk though. But looking at your roster, yes you certainlly miss him.
BTW what team is that, CAVS?? what happened to your other players? it seems like you lost a lot of good players just for Curry and Chandler(don't get me wrong, these two are great players). I think the original roster was a little better.
Good luck (Y)

Yeah, I kind of restructured the roster just to get players I like and I can play with. I wasn't trying to get the best players, just young ones which fit into my overall playing concept and which I like.
Rush will have to step up, and I have trust in him after he send a game against indiana into overtime with a running jumper that tied the score with 0.4 sec to go (I got 2.4 sec for the play). Fortunately I won that game in overtime.
Lebron gotta be quite good, since he is averaging 33 points on 52% from the field and 50% from 3-point-range. Furthermore he guards the opponents best player if possible.

Ah, i guess lebron is as good in the game as he is in real life. It's too bad it's almost impossible to get him with his high ratings and low salary. Same goes for Wade. :cry:

Hello again

In some dynasties I have seen some pictures showing a table which represents the season and game highs of my team. Where can I get that little ass-kickin' tool??
BTW I am 1-2 since losing Lbron to injury, winning against detroit, losing against miami and boston. I also did some trades, to add some scoring to my team. I got Bremer off the free agency and jacobson for some free agents and hart. I also signed some czech 2.26m monster who is only 19 or 20 years old and will form a formidable inside power along with my chinese 19-year-old 2.21m tall geek. Both are rated below 40, but they do look threatening being on the floor at the same time. :D
