Oh come on, the mixtapes just got better and better
Mixtape 3 was probably the best one
But Mixtape 4 had the most hilerious + and coolest moves (allyoper over my friend).

i have to bitch more about Live 04
stupid game, has anybody noticed that in most cases where there is a shooting foul there is absolutely no contact? watch the replay and see what i mean
I can't believe PP34 blocked the shot of my 6'11 PF who is MORE athletic than Pierce. It's not like it was a layup or dunk attempt, it was a shot from the post damnit!!!!!
I hate the fact that there is no jump shot game, cos u will get blocked. It pisses me off
anyways, lets talk NBA....which of the follwing players will have the best season
Antonio McDyess
Grant Hill
Penny Hardaway
Vin Baker

Hmm, well... i'm thinking Antonio McDyess, cos he still has it in him imo. But he has a backup role next year and Grant Hill will likely start. So i saw Hill. (assuming he doesn't die)

Slam Harder you should consider being a rapper

Well 1st posts of some loyal users. Lets comment on those.it is odd that i couldnt find most people's 1st post as it says "No topics or posts met your search criteria"(including Andrew,Jackal,Dahl,Slam ....)
Tales:
It looks awesome and I must say it kicks ass too!
Nick:
Agreed.
You made the right move Andrew. ...But i don't like that smilie face...it looks evil... 
...is that face trying to suggest something?... 
...no, silly me....
Mr. T:
Very Nice
Mine:
definetely olowakandi "as you see even my first post has no grammar faults"
Drama:
hey mitch, did u start makin pac? if u didnt u could use some good pics i already sent finnboy 4 the cyberface. when i sent em 2 him he said that he could get started with them...
Mr.Shane:
Don't mind me, I'm mildly inebriated...if there's mistakes, that's why.
Here's my take:
I'm a vet of NBA Live (since Live 98 ), and I'm quite good at the game. However, this game is a challenge. I played one game on superstar and I was slaughtered. The computer utilized the fast break after every shot, and after 5 minutes (12 min quarters), I was down 40 to 10. This was against the Spurs, mind you.
Because of that, I moved the difficulty down to All-Star and changed the minutes to 8. I tried running and gunning, and I was beaten yet again. The next game, I tried controlling the pace, not shooting till 10 or less on the shot clock, posting up, running off screens, running plays...and I found the game to be highly enjoyable. I went into double overtime and lost - and I was HAPPY. The game played so beautifully I didn't care that I lost. I didn't lose because the game cheated, I lost because they played BETTER than I.
The stats of that game? I don't recall, off the top of my head anyway, but it was realistic as hell, save for the field goal percentage - both teams shot around 60%. The one thing that bothered me were the stretches where I could not make a layup and the computer made about everything, but that happens in real life, so it's not that big of a deal.
The blocks, however, were an annoying - yet nice (explain shortly) - part of the game. They were nice because they brought down the computers field goal percentage to 60%...otherwise it would have been even higher. The number of blocks was absurd....as were the steals. I was losing the game that went into OT, but I came back from 20 down to win in double OT (thank God for Jamison's clutch threes). How did I come back? By execution. I posted Jamison and A. Davis up, ISO'd with Carter, and dribble-drove with my point (me - lol). Mo Pete had a couple transition hoops and big threes (I'm playing w/Raptors, obviously), and the game was a blast. I came back by being precise, and I didn't turn the ball over until a minute left in the fourth. I finished the game with 12 TOs, quite realistic for an NBA game.
That being said, the field goal percenatage and ass-raping fast breaks, the blocks, and the sometimes questionable steals can be fixed with roster tweaks. If you turn the ball over a lot, it's because you're careless. The turnovers don't piss me off...they make me mad at myself, but not at the game.
Think of it this way...at least there is a fast break, accurate O-rebounds, and the steals make sense. If you turn the fouls all the way up - Off. and Def - you'll have a great game. Once tweaked rosters come out, this game will be even more of a blast than it already is.
Shane
whoa !!!
Repole:
great job on the rosters and coaches joe, appreciate it, andrews save drove me away with walker and pierces terrible ratings lol, although a 78 for my man kedrick brown was awfly kind
also just wanna say amazing work with the franchise and shit, specially the salary.... absolutly amazing...
Jaedot:
Hello. This list is compiled by an Australian with first hand knowledge of living in England. A peculiar little country that doesn't have too many fans. Perhaps this thread will change that. I doubt it though.
The Do's
1. Do buy shedloads of hair gel. Even if you're balding. Actually, especially if you're balding. To integrate and fit in with the English you need to cake on the gel, with no exceptions. The most popular hairstyle to gel your hair into, is the shark fin. It may look slightly like you have an erection on your head, but hey, that's England for ya.
2. Do attempt to learn a bit about the girlie but addictive sport that is soccer, otherwise known as football. This country has an obsession with football, strange considering that it's a sport they haven't excelled in since 1966... by the way, 1966 is to England what 9/11 is to the Americans.
3. Do try and understand what celebrities are over there. Gone are the days where to be famous you had to have actually achieved something. England is a country where someone can be famous due to possessing a pair of breasts. And an ugly pair at that. It's also a country where a washed up 90's Australian pop-star can completely restart his career with a #1 single after just spending a couple of weeks in a bush eating cockroaches.
4. Do go to an English pub. One of the redeeming things of the country is that you can go to a pub without being bashed up by the biker gang that has control of it. This is due to the fact that English biker gangs are wimps. It's still good though, provides a nice distraction from the weather
The Don'ts
1. Don't try and chat up women. It ruins it. Most English women can be absolutely gorgeous to look at, but then when they speak it sounds like a dyslexic prostitute with laryngitis. In any case, it's often easier to just get them into bed straight away. Just ask.
2. Don't expect them to know where you're from just based on your accent. While in England, most people thought i was American or Canadian, and it's actually more common for them to think you're from Wales or New Zealand than Australia. Oh btw, don't bother asking where they're from. Different parts of the country have different accents, it just becomes confusing after a while
3. Don't be scared of "football hooligans". In most cases, these are unemployed balding englishmen who ran out of gel in the morning and didn't have their breakfast cooked for them by their slave like wifes. You can spot these people by their fake gold chains, cheap tattoo's or more commonly, burberry baseball caps.
4. For the Australians. Don't mention the impending retirement of the English rugby teams forward pack. According to the country of England, they'll play til they're 100. Which is sometime next March. Also, try not to ask why rugby isn't as popular right now as it was when they actually won the World Cup. English people only support their national teams when they win, football being the exception. Just ask Tim Henman, or the cricket side
That concludes my list, sorry to any English people it offends

im gonna bitch bout NBA Live 04 some more. I play on superstar cos all other levels are too easy. Fastbreaks don't phase me but make the game more challenging. The #1 team in the L is Portland but they don't play any fastbreak ball so i usually blow them out. I just run and gun
anyways today my players missed so many layups, open layups, no player in the NBA can miss this many layups. I felt like i was watching a bucnh of 8yr olds play ball
not happy, but i won.
Court spacing in Live 04 is retarded at best. Player don't position themselves to form triangles when others are dbl teamed. Anyways, this guy on my team (White) got dbl teamed and they left Williams open which is stupid. That's like somebody sending a dbl team Ervin Johnsons way and leaving KG open. Stupid.
Theres no mid range game, which i mentioned before when i bitched, but still, nobody can hit an open J. Sure i can crank then sliders but then it would make the game more unrealistic.

Yer thats true.. the spacing is fucked. same with the inconsistancies of the shooting form of some players. Shoot a wide open 3 with iverson, and its like he just tosses it up without following through. It sucks..
Hey Stack. You have the 1000th post on "i cant belive my starting 5" right ?
No he got the 1000000000000th post
