L.James - 13 PTS
C.Billups - 21 PTS of 8/9 3 point shooting
K.Bryant - 15 PTS
D.Mutombo - 5 BLKS

Player of the Game: Baron Davis. 26-2-11

Both Carmelo and Lebron were quoted after the game saying "We feel like we should have had the victory and our first game was nerve wrecking

When I first saw this, I couldn't believe you got LeBron, Melo and Kobe on the same team. But then I remember they are so poorly underrated, I believe LBJ is 69, and Melo is 63. Anyway tough loss, good luck with the season

Game Two
LAL @ DET
67 65


Note from Coach

I'm sorry to tell you after my second straight loss I was too pissed to look at the Box score. Sorry. But from what I remember and noted down in the game...

T-Mac dropped 21 first half points for the Lakers

We talked to Kobe Bryant after the game and he said "Man, I put up a great run in the 3rd. I think me and Bron both dropped 20+. Good game bad ending. Congrats to Bron on his first big game.

Game Three
DET @ MEM

BOX SCORE:
C.Billups 42 PTS - 3 REB - 10 AST

K.Bryant4 PTS - 4 AST

Player of the Game : Chauncey Billups

After the game we talked to Melo. "Chauncey was huge tonight. Never seen a preformance like that before. Great to be in the NBA. I also witnessed how unselfish Kobe could be tonight.

Ron Artest also put in 25 for the Grizzlys.

Yeah, But Bron and Melo are rookies.

Still, they're beasts!

Editors note: I think I heroin addicted Mexican Lab Rat drafted this team and it was so easy. The rest of the games wont be this blowout. As you can see I'm two and two.

T. Prince, K.Hinrich, and M.Okur all scored in single figures.

After the game we caught up with two players and the Pistons coach. First player was Dikemba and we couldn't understand one bit of it. All we heard was something about "Okur filling shoes" and "Ring Chasing"

Q & A with the young LBJ

Q: What do you think about tonights game?
A: Fun man, we just put on a show tonight

Q:Would you be upset if you didn't win ROY?
A:Nop. Not at all. I just wanna win.

Q: Whos your favorite team mate?
A: Hard to chose but me and Melo have been great friends for a long time

The Pistons coach also added "We look great now and the futures even better. Look foward to 2004-05 also.

Tough start, glad to see they finally got a win. There a lot of time for this young guys to develop and turn themselves into superstars just like today.

C.Billups - 21 PTS of 8/9 3 point shooting

That's impossible.

You're team sure is full of talent, a bright future is ahead of you.

GAME RECAP: Chauncey clutch three elevates Pistons over the Wizards in this low scoring bout. Yao Ming of the Wizards was not a stat filler but he made it terribly hard for Kobe, Lebron, and Carmelo to make it too the hoop. C.Ward was also a presence scoring 26 for Washington. But that did not top Player of the Game Chauncey Billups performance.

My god should I even continue?

If you're passionate about it, definitely keep it up. Maybe add a little more detail on the recaps though.

Ok. Like what? More stats? It's like next to impossible to add pics to because I have no recording device yet.

Some more stats and a bit more of a description of the action. If anything noteworthy happens during the game you can also take a screenshot through Instant Replay or at anytime by pressing F12 (pretty sure NBA Live 2004 supported that).

Lol. I would but I'm unfortunately on Gamecube. I do have a 360 though. Just thought I'd do some old school action.
