OK so that's my team
Playing Blazers Dynasty 7 minutes quarter superstar lvl

C)Oden\Marcin Gortat
PF)Aldridge\Glen Davis\Mareese Speights
SF))Fernandez\ Travis Outlaw\Danilo Gallinari
SG)Roy\Marco Bellinelli\Nicolas Batum
PG)Rodriguez\Jaryd Bayless\DJ Strawberry

I really wanted to buy Anthony Randolph from Warriors, but they don't agree when I propose them Outlaw, Speights and Batum.I have no idea how to get him...They always propose Maggette for Oden

I have 4-6 record already. My biggest success is won with Spurs,
I lost at Minesota but I won with them at portland
Recently I won with Warriors after 2OTs

Tell me what you think about my team. :)

Not bad, though I'm not a huge fan of that frontcourt. I would have kept Channing Frye and Martell Webster. It has a very strong international contingent. :)

Bench (main players)
Mehmet Okur C (Boris Diaw to Utah for Okur)
Grant Hill sf
Raja Bell sg
Alondo Tucker sf
Sean Singletary pg
Louis Amudson PF (Idk how to spell his name)

Thats all I can remember right now.

That's a pretty small starting lineup aside from Amare and Kaman. I imagine it would be very effective on the break though with such speedy players but I don't know if I'd like that lineup on defense though. I'd want Hill and Bell in there to contend with taller opponents.

Yeah, I'm gonna trade barbosa or have him as my 6th man. My team is like 30-5 right now, so the lineup is working pretty well. :mrgreen:

Just out of interest, do you run into any difficulties defensively with that lineup?

Sometimes, but when I do I usualy put Iverson at the 1, Bell at the 2 and Hill at the 3

Probably Al thornton from LAC (promising young player) or a 3-point threat to replace him like Mike Miller from MIN who can play either the two or three.

Sounds good. Mike Miller's outside shooting sounds like it might suit your style but Thornton wouldn't be a bad choice either.

Not yet, I was going to after the November 5th update was released but I'd rather not have players listed as injured from the start. I've asked EA about the issue, I'm hoping to have some details on it soon.

Lakers Dynasty 6min quarters All-Star

1st Year of My Lakers Dynasty

PG Bibby
SG Gordon
SF Deng
PF Pau Gasol
C Bynum

2nd unit

Derrick Rose
Kapono or *Ariza
Yi Jianlian or *Ariza
Marc Gasol/**Joakim Noah
Brook Lopez

**Depending on Marcs Performance durin the game

Inactive List:
Drew Gooden

I play with the starting unit 1st and 4th quarters and with 2nd unit in the 2nd and 3rd. I plugged in Rose in the starting lineup but he wasnt doing to well with the pick and roll maybe cuz hes a bit fast but i see him takin over the starting job later in the season. Our record is 25-8 right now.

Pretty balanced team. Did you trade Kobe to the Bulls?

Thanks. Yes I traded kobe & farmar & possibly someone else or maybe a pick or maybe just them two...but for sure kobe and farmar for hinrich deng and gordon...

I've done a lot of trades (bynum gasol fisher and ariza are the only remaining lakers from last season) and I think I've got the right squad now. We just came off a 13 win streak but are now on a two game losing streak.

Nice deal, the real Lakers probably wouldn't be inclined to trade him but you certainly made sure you got a fair bit for him.

Denver Nuggets (I think I'm still around today)

C Zydrunas Ilgauskas/J. Smith (70)/Lance Allred
PF Rasheed Wallace/Kenyon Martin/Linas Kleiza (72)
SF Carmelo Anthony/60 SF
SG Richard Hamilton/Kareem Rush
PG Sarunas Jasikevicius (77)/Chucky Atkins

Well, I'm looking to drop Martin and try to get a good PG/SG. Cap is the default, except for Sarunas' mid-level exception (5M I guess)... Any suggestions?

That's a good idea to trade Martin for a SG. In my team Rush is not playing what I expect from him.

I would also trade Atkins, because he's old and I think you can get better PG instead of him

I'd probably trade Wallace before Martin as he's older and will decline quicker, though if you're not playing multiple seasons then that's not going to be an issue. Moving Atkins isn't a bad idea either so long as a new backup point guard is coming the other way.

Believe me, even with 58 games it's gonna take a while (even though I can play two 09 games per day as opposed to the max 1 of 07)... Also maybe there are some suggestions on SF/SG trading, because the situation dictated that I start Martin as a SF

Heres my squad for the psp system of NBA LIVE 09:

09/10 Chicago Bulls(2nd Season)

C-Samuel Dalembert (Hinrich & Thomas trade)
F-Drew Gooden
F-Loul Deng
G-Larry Hughes
G-Derrick Rose
---------------------------------------
6-Ben Gordan (plays most of sg and pg about 35 min a night so don't freak out about him benched)
7-Andres Nocioni
8-Anthony Johnson (FREE AGENT)
9-Theo Ratlif (Hinrich & Thomas trade)
10-Renado Balkman (Aaron Gray & Linsday Hunter trade)
11-Thabo Sefolosha
12-Cheik Samb (Aaron Gray & Linsday Hunter trade)
IR1-Sergio Rodriguez (Joakim Noah Trade)
IR2-Nicholas Batum (Joakim Noah Trade
IR3-Cerdic Simmons

I already played the 08/09 season and I did one move on the tradeline trading Hinrich and Thomas for Dalembert and Theo Ratlif. I traded Hinirch cause of the guard log jam and Thomas because he is not improving and I gave him 32 mins a night and he only averaged 9pts, 7rbs, and 1 blk per game. I usually play a small line up with my 2nd unit of Nocioni, Blackman, Hughes, Gordan, Johnson. I believe my team is one of the best defense teams in the league with defensive minded players in Dalembert, Hughes, Balkman, Ratlif and Rose in my rotation. I also have the long and athletic Sefolosha as a reserve. In offensive, my team kills teams with Gordan and Deng averaging 24 and 21 pts a game and Rose is averaging 18pts,6rbs, and 8 ast with 2steals. Dalembert is averaging 15pts, 12rbs, and 3blks. Gooden and Hughes avg 9pts and Hughes has 2steals per game and Gooden with 10 rbs. I feel very proud of Dalembert giving us his career highs in stats and he has quickly develop a relationship with Rose just like the Chandler & Paul thing. I also use Gordan off the bench in the 2nd quarter and 4th quarter where he beats the heck out of the 2nd Unit of opposing teams with 24pts(team high) a game. Defense is my strategy and my whole offense revoles and depends on Derrick Rose. Done! What ya think?

I like it, not the strongest bench in the league but you've got a mix of capable veterans and young players with potential there. Starting five is pretty solid.
