Sonics Season

ok,i know it's called franchise issues but as i want to use dh's roster which doesn' work with the rookies in franchise mode!
well, i've just started the season, 8 minutes per quarter, 12 minutes simmed, all-star-level and i play the sonics.
i've just played the first two games, starting with drobniac, evans (but radmanovic gets a lot of time of the bench), lewis, barry (but mason gets a lot of time of the bench) an for sure payton! i've lost the dfirst two games (ups) against the phoenix and houston, both very close, i only lost because im shooting very bad free throws! ok, lets see, what the next games will bring...i would be very happy for coments, maybe on my lineup or what else you ant to coment!

You should start Payton,Barry,Mason at SF,Lewis at PF and Drbonjak. Make sure Joseph Forte is available, so that him and Radmanovic can come off the bench and provide capable scoring. This starting lineup can run and score on the fastbreak, Lewis won't get alot of blocks, and can't defend as well against your Duncan's and Webbers, but he will get boards and points. The second unit with can be Kenny Anderson, Forte, Evans at PF, and Radmanovic at center.Again, not real powerful against Shaq etc.., but he can get rebounds and can step out and shoot the three. Being that Barry, Mason or Lewis will always be available, keep one of them at SF, they can all score at will with dunks, and decent jumper range. They all are also pretty good at threes! Trust me, I run this lineup and my team is 20-6 right now. Good Luck!

well, i play with evans at pf just as he can defend against the good pf, but he only plays about 12minutes, mason gets 23 of the bench and radmanovic also ca 19. i takte rad and mas of the bench as they can score very well and kill the other bench players - i always led the stats in bench scores!
last night i've again played two games, won against the kings (wow!) and lost to the clippers (again very poor free trow shooting!). now i am at 1-3, i have to practice free throws and than the playoffs should be no problem, i think!
the next game, i'll also change the lineup and mason will start at sg as barry did only score 2 points against the clippers and mason comes of the bench to score 13!

i've just finished sea:orl, unbelievable result and game, was really great to play

Hey Sonic!
Are you the one from Crossover?

"the one from crossover"? i can't follow you

I think you´re german right?

yes

Bist du vielleicht der Redakteuer von www.crossover-online.de? Der heißt genauso

nein, bin ich nicht, sorry, bin zwar da angemeldet aber redakteur nicht

Hätte ja sein können wegen dem Name. bist du auch bei basketball.de?

nein

lewis is amazing in the game
i'm playing with the cavs and i got him and a scrub for darius miles and travis best... he's rated a 91 right now and averaging 30ppg in 6min quarters...

in which season are you? (second, third?)

now i'm at 2-5
i've ltwo big problems: free throws (i need to practise much) and my defense is very bad... i'm thinking of to take bo outlaw from the fa-list and maybe make a trade (don't know who i should trade, maybe barry or anderson)
for sure, something has to change when i want to reach the playoffs!

sonic1982 if u were asking me then i'm in my 4th season i think...
