I admire your patience of being able to take spankings from all those teams.

Great vids, definitely better than most uploads in the 2K website. :lol:
Too bad about that close loss against the Rockets. I love those 'crawl yourself out of the hole' type of games.
The best part about the recent update - AmMo has a highlight clip!

Out of all of those teams, it's pretty strange that the Celtics were the only one you were able to beat. It's really tough to win games with just a supporting cast, so at least you got one W this month. (Y) I see that Jamison's been floating around the 15 PPG mark lately, and seeing as he's not too bad of a scorer in 2K10, you should try to up his average to around 20+ PPG. Maybe that could help you get a few more wins.

Thanks guys..

The best part about the recent update - AmMo has a highlight clip!


I was desperate to get him one. If you notice he actually starts the play too, he passes it to the PG then runs around to the corner.

Some tough losses alone the way but hang tight dude.


Looking forward to FA... and the draft. Already.

Great recap. Your team is a lot better than the Claws. I do miss the photo captions though.


I tried including them but it's hard with so many pictures (and how they're arranged) but I may be able to fit them in.

I see that Jamison's been floating around the 15 PPG mark lately, and seeing as he's not too bad of a scorer in 2K10, you should try to up his average to around 20+ PPG. Maybe that could help you get a few more wins.


The cool thing about Jamison is that he's averaging about 15 but he's shooting like 55% from the field, usually he's down around 43-44. I'm playing him at SF, I could try to post-up more probably but I'm concentrating a bit on getting Mo Williams involved more.

In the December around the league update I'll post player stats so you can see how they're going. Also more retarded trades (November saw Jason Kidd go from Dallas to Phoenix, December sees Steve Nash go from Phoenix to...).

Shit I think I forgot to put that in the recap. I traded Moon to Dallas for Najera and 2 2nd round picks. Their salaries are identical but I figured he is more productive than Najera so worth Dallas throwing in the two picks.

Nice move to get those picks, you will have plenty of chances to improve through the draft, especially if you give yourself the picks the Cavs got in the LeGone trade.

Oh shit I didn't think of that. I think I will, since it's a big part of Cleveland's whole rebuilding thing.
