LOL good to see people having some fun. That's the spirit.
The starting 5 thread was a spam-fest. I'm too embarrased to go back and read it. When it got to 900-odd posts me and Matt were posting absolute spam trying to see who would get the 1000th post in the thread. It was the first time a thread had that many posts in it, so when we got to the end we were posting shit like "Did I get it?"... and then Matt got it the stooge! Did you make a speech Matt? Can't remember

Getting senile in my old age!

I think I only posted like 17 times in the original starting 5 thread. Funnily enough, posting in any thread 17 times would be alot these days. Get on MSN you tool, I'm bored.

that starting 5 thread was awesome....for those who don't know, it was aguy who drafted a team and his starting PG was Kevin Garnett. The dude said that KG finally got to play his 'natural position' and that spawned a debate which eventually turned to SPAM as ppl started posting bogus lineups such as having Shawn Bradley play PG and Earl Boykins at C
eheheh

I was around on the black-blue forums

. It was so funny. And that "I can't believe my starting 5!!" thread is probably the most spammed thread ever.

Here is the original starting 5 thread:
http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~nbalive/fo ... ?998476448
Man I might even have a read of it later, after looking at that first classic post which started off the greatest thread in NLSC history...
Hello all,
So anyway I am playing a custom team (redrafted all of the modern NBA players) and I had the fifth pick overall. What I hate about this part of the game is the fact that the draft goes from 1 to 29 and back to 1 again. Its so unfair to the other teams. This annoyed me in NBA 2000 and I was dissapointed that they did not change that. Anyway I picked Garnett at 5 overall and I picked the best players available thereafter.
After drafting my team, the computer ranked me the best overall. But I didn't like the fact that my squad was a bit long in the tooth. So I put on my GM suit and went to work.
After all was said and done...I came out with a DREAM starting 5 for any long-term franchisee.
C - Mark Jackson, 25yrs old
PF - Elton Brand ,21 yrs old
SF - Tracy McGrady, 22 yrs old
SG - Allan Iverson, 26 yrs old
PG - Kevin Garnett, 26 yrs old
Yeah, I let KG play his "natural" possition. Besides, this way he overpowers other PG's.
The problem with my team though is my bench, which consists of Marcus Fizer, Jonathan Bender and other future NBA prospects.
But that all doesnt matter...I am still scratching my head...on why the computer let me have such a dominating and impressive starting 5.
I am good for the next 10 seasons at least with those 5. Then I can work on my bench in that time span.
Anyway, Im thinking of starting over because I feel real bad about what I did to a machine that does not take into account FUTURE VALUE.
Anyone else here feel bad about ripping off the computer?

Geez, how old was that guy? 50?
Sun Jul 04, 2004 3:57 pm
That post becomes dated by the notion that Marc Jackson at centre made for a "dream starting five". His stock fell quite quickly after his rookie campaign.

I wrote:I just drafted a franchise, playing their natural positions of course-
C-Mike Bibby/Muggsy
PF-Baron Davis/Speedy Claxton
SF-Allen Iverson/Felipe Lopez
SG-Ilgauskas/Shawn Bradley
PG-Antoine Walker/Kenyon Martin
Completely forgot I did that, Bradley was the x-over king.
As far as the creator goes,
bromanagro@yahoo.com should say hello some time

I just finished reading that, Matt, that was the greatest example of power spamming I have seen in my entire life. Anywhere.
Sun Jul 04, 2004 11:44 pm
oi man lets leave that in he past
i had multiple screens up at the same time to get that SPAM up there
Mon Jul 05, 2004 12:07 am
Lol definite 'A' for effort there. At least you got most of the big number posts
Mon Jul 05, 2004 12:50 am
Yeah I had multuple screens too, shit was taking for ever to load!
An observation: Jae loves a flame/shit hitting the fan so much, he's been back to his spamming self the last couple of days since the big blow up!

It's like he's hooked, just waiting for the next big bang! (aren't we all

) hehehe!

It's weird, I'm like rejuvenated. I'm even planning a scientific experiment NLSC style, and if you ever get on MSN I might just tell you... although I'm not on MSN at the moment, blame Naomi.
Mon Jul 05, 2004 1:52 am
No blow ups from me.
I think.
Mon Jul 05, 2004 2:08 am
Nah I cant think of any, just a few slight disagreements. I might get a sig. I feel like a sig. I know we hate them, but my posts are so plain and boring, maybe a sig would make them cooler. Hmmmm
Mon Jul 05, 2004 2:10 am
Hey I just had a thought! (and to all of you new pricks, I'm not editing any posts, fuck off) if we tried hard enough this could be a "I cannot believe..." of the new era. Not as good, but still full of spam
Mon Jul 05, 2004 2:14 am
Tch tch tch, you should've just edited your last post.
Mon Jul 05, 2004 2:18 am
Lol shut the hell up, damn newbies!
Mon Jul 05, 2004 2:35 am
