Jugs: Thank you for your submission and I'm curious on how the rest of your team will pan out. As a 'Clipper fan', I'm glad that Maggette is getting his just due in your Dynasty. Remember to send your midseason pstats when you get the chance! - Honor Glow

congrats on the #2! you overtook me!!!

Hahah alright we got a little bit of friendly competition here! Of course Isaiah, I'm looking forward to your next submission as well...these on the development side are going steady and again...I'm just trying to get the kinks out.

To get back on track, yeh Jugs results were fairly well rounded and no penalties so I am impressed.

Yeah i'm glad that i got no penalties, thanks Honor


Oh and there's somethign wrong with my computer and it still works but i fucked up the graphics card and wen i play live 06, the computer restarts... plus i cant login into my name which is where the HornyEts folder is located (save folder)

so the only way for me to fix it is by fixing the graphics card or at least save the save folder by deleting my account and saving my files on a different desktop


BLEH

so dynasty = on hold

you know learned your lesson jugs...

Yes, I managed to retrieve the save folder of the dynasty, now I can safely re-image the computer (not really, i still need to back-up over 50Gb of shit.)

thats fucking big.. goodluck man...

holy shit that much?! wow.
gl

Progress update: I haven't backed up everything yet but i'll have everything backed up right when the school holidays start and then the computer will be re-imaged and then i have to un back up everything and then i can update this dynasty again.

So expect next update in 2 weeks.

I only typed this because i was angry that i couldnt update this for you guys.

Hey, hope it all goes well. I hate it when my computer screws up. I'll be following once it all gets sorted.

50 GB? I think I have 70.

Yay, my computer has been re-imaged but I haven't tested if Live 06 works....

I still have to put some things on my computer and then I'll test out live 06, oh and I need to install quite a few patches for live 06.

well good luck jugs.. its been a while...

Yeah it has been a while, I have to get used to the controls again and then I might post an update in the next few days, the next game is against Maggette's old team, the Clippers.

GM Skrnjug announces trades to Spurs and Kings and re-signs Tierre Brown

Hornets GM Skrnjug contacted the Spurs again for another trade, this time sending unhappy SF Rasual Butler and fat C Rafael Araujo to the Spurs for disgruntled Center Nazr Mohammed and PF Frabicio Oberto. Butler wasn't happy with his playing time with the Hornets and he wanted out. Nazr Mohammed wanted another starting gig and the Hornets were the only option. Nazr Mohammed will wear the number 2 and Oberto will wear number 5.

Hornets GM Skrnjug also contacted the Kings and traded rookies Singleton and Korolev for PG Jason Hart. Jason Hart will wear the number 1 and be the back-up PG which leaves fan favourite Beno Udrih a 3rd string PG. Udrih is fine with that, he told GM Skrnjug, he'll accept the roll and hopefully he'll hang around and help in the play-offs.

GM Skrnjug also re-signed released PG Tierre Brown. He was resigned because the Hornets need another spare on the IRL.

Thanks, Jugs.

Hornets host Maggette's old team, the Clippers



J.R. Smith, Jamal Magloire and Kirk Snyder visit their old team to verse Corey Maggette and his new team.

Starting Line-Ups



Key Match-Up

Corey Maggette vs. Elton Brand

Although they play different positions, this will be a nice rivalry as they are former teammates.

1st Quarter

Chris Wilcox and Cuttino Mobley both started off well, scoring 2 early baskets each but the Hornets weren't too far behind. Both Hart and Mohammed were playing alright for their new team but Mohammed got into early foul trouble which put Andersen back on the floor. The home crowd were expecting an early poster from Maggette and he did, a nice one-handed slam over Chris Wilcox. Both teams were executing well on the offensive end, especially Cuttino Mobley, who was the only player in double-digits so far. Joey Graham was scoring well as the Hornets got to within one point of the Clippers. Some Livingston free throws gave the Clippers a 29-26 lead at the end of the quarter.

2nd Quarter

Shortly after the break, the Hornets took the lead with an 8-0 run but Mobley singlehandedly gave the Clippers the lead. The Hornets began to struggle on both ends of the floor but Chris Paul was put back on which put the Hornets within 4 points. The Hornets were playing sloppy defence as the lead was on the verge on going to double-digits. The Clippers finished the quarter ahead 57-48.

Key Players at the Half

Elton Brand and Al Harrington

3rd Quarter

The Hornets continued their poor play, the only players who actually wanted to contribute well were Joey Graham and Al Harrington, Chris Paul was the only one with an excuse as he has a minor injury. The Hornets were slowly coming back and they needed to continue their stronger defence to comeback and win. It took Mohammed 2 and a third quarters to record his first basket for his new team, he was the only Hornets starter not in double-figures. The Hornets were only 5 points behind the Clippers when they made two mistakes and the Clippers made their lead go out to 9 points. But the Hornets decided to go on a nice 8-0 run to bring the lead down to a single point. Brand hit 1 out of 2 free throws then Graham hit 2 free throws to even up the scores at 70 a piece. Both teams began to exchange baskets until Chris Paul forced J.R. Smith to make a mistake which led to a sideball and Mohammed scored the basket to give his team the lead. Brand missed 1 free throw out of 2 and both teams continued to exchange baskets as the Hornets finished the quarter ahead 82-81.

4th Quarter

The Hornets started the quarter with Mohammed going on a defensive stop run and also making a nice dunk on the offensive end to put the Hornets lead out to 7. The Clippers scored and then the Hornets went on another 6-0 run to bring the lead out to double-digits but that didn't last long as the Clippers scored 4 in a row. The Hornets continued their strong play throughout the quarter even with Mobley starting to score again after he was shutdown for a quarter and a half. The score was 110 to 102 in favour of the Hornets with 1 minute to go, this was when the Clippers started fouling. The Clippers managed to cut the deficit down to 6 points with the Hornets missing free throws and were lucky not to lose the game as the Hornets took this game 118-111.

Igor Skrnjug was pleased with the win against Corey's old team and he was glad that the crowd controlled themselves with the return of Magloire. Hornets GM has decided there shall be no more trades until around the all-star break because he's happy with the team and he wants them to develop a good team chemistry.

First live 06 game in a month and I win, nice, Jugs.

The Hornets GM was glad that he'd put together a team that could win 7 games in a row and go above .500, but he's GM-ing isn't as good as GM Babcock's as his team has a 15-12 record, previously 15-8 but they've lost 4 in a row.

Anyways, GM Skrnjug also received this nice message from the team owner.
