I'll play as the Raptors, as always, but trade Vince Carter's whining ass.

YES! I'm not the only guy who thinks Carter is just being a crybaby. Just cuz your team hasn't made the playoffs in a couple of years doesn't mean they aren't able to.
Here are some teams that could have made the playoffs - Raptors, Suns, Warriors and even the Magic(if they did it in 02-03 they can do it again). But who on these teams complained? Marion, Amare and J-rich didn't complain and T-Mac didn't want to be in rebuilding and the Raptors are not near the rebuilding stages.
In the years the Raptors didn't make the playoffs Carter was injured. During March the Raptors were 4th in the East. But injuries hit 4 out of our 5 starters.
And Vince wants to get traded when it's his fault that his team is losing!? He was quoted for saying "I don't want to wait for the Raptors to mature" when he's the one needs some growing up to do.
I'll stop rambling now....

a true star player can bring his team to the playoffs, carter is the team main man so i put the blame on him.
Sat Sep 18, 2004 9:59 am
Sauru I thought Boston had 3 rookies? Al Jefferson, Delonte West and Tony Allen.

dude, add the bulls to that list. they can make the playoffs, they have the team to do so.
Sat Sep 18, 2004 11:58 am
i will start a dynasty mode with the bulls of course...
well, i will have to make some trade and give away : antonio davis, othella harrington,frank williams, jannero pargo, erick piatowski, chris jefferies,eddie robinson
and i will try to pick moiso (toronto), fizer (FA), patterson(portland),pierce (celtics), battier (memphis), hudson (minnesota), anfernee hardaway (NY) and antawn jamison (wizards)
to have a great bench, and to bring some player who want playtime and have the winning desire to put their team in play offs
because, all bullsfans hope every year that our team will begin to win and to reach a positive year (41-41) but everytime, we fail! curry and chandler don't play as high as they can or they want!
i hope too, to change our coach, i will put scottie pippen in

you are right. i just had jefferson and west on my mind though. i am unsure if i will keep allen or not just yet.
edit: i just hope they rate jefferson well enough as he has shown alot during the summer leagues.

How could you even think you were the only one
I'd do a three way trade:
Denver trades: Nene Hilario
Denver gets: Joe Johnson
Toronto trades: Vince Carter, Donyell Marshall, Lammond Murray
Toronto gets: Shawn Marion, Nene Hilario, Howard Eisley
Phoenix Trades: Shawn Marion, Joe Johnson, Howard Eisley
Phoenix gets: Vince Carter, Donyell Marshall, Lammond Murray
Toronto
PG - Rafer Alston
SG - Jalen Rose [:?]
SF - Shawn Marion
PF - Chris Bosh
C - Nene Hilario
Phoenix [Amare will not play center, in real life at least]
PG - Steve Nash
SG - Quentin Richardson
SF - Vince Carter
PF - Amare Stoudemire
C - Marciej Lampe | Steven Hunter | Jake Voshkuhl
Denver
PG - Andre Miller
SG - Joe Johnson
SF - Carmelo Anthony
PF - Kenyon Martin
C - Marcus Camby
Sat Sep 18, 2004 4:08 pm
I'm gonna be LA... and trade for Yao Ming... but it wont happen!
OK... i'll trade Lamar and Caron for crappy guys with expiring contracts and draft an Andrew Bogut!
Mon Sep 20, 2004 1:19 pm
i'll go houston, then maybe i can trade for peja. then i'd have:
C-Yao
PF-Deke
SF-Peja
SG-Tmac
PG-Lue
or i'd use the bobcats and trade for my old faves-- penny, kukoc, then get a new player like pavel...
Mon Sep 20, 2004 6:58 pm
Im gonna go Philly, try and get rid of Big Dog.
I'll probably see if I can pick up a mediocre SF and a draft pick so that I can start Iguodala.
The team should be a challenge seeing as though they are well over the cap, so trading will be made that extra bit harder...Id also like to try my hand at clearing cap space to make a run at the free agents probably after the second season so I can have one year at seeing how well the generated rookies can play.
Mon Sep 20, 2004 7:25 pm
I'd go with Dallas because they've got the best unis
IMO. Then I'ma try to get Ray Allen and Michael Redd together.

I usually go lakers and trade for Chandler, but seeing that this team's different, first thing I'll do is free up some future salary by moving big contract-low production players like Grant, George, Jumaine Jones, and maybe Butler then sign some FA's to one year deals: Malone, Stromile Swift, DerMarr Johnson and possibly old Rod Strickland.... Oh and if the mad Glove is not in Boston, I'll sign him as well
Thu Sep 23, 2004 1:01 am
I will play with the MIAMI HEAT as usual , and i will try to get MANU GINOBILI to the Team
I think Manu is the best non-Superstar player in the league (well maybe cause im for Argentina too).
Anyway im pretty sure this will be my first sign
Then... Penny Hardaway, just cause its my all time favorite player.....
Thu Sep 23, 2004 2:10 am
hmmm, i'll be playing the Pistons and the only deal i picture myself doing is shipping Colemans fat ass out of town. If I'm in a bad mood I'll inflict him onto any team that pisses me off, if i'm in a good mood i'll just cut him.
I like the Detroit team as it is.....perhaps a backup to Hamilton (depending on how Delfino turns out) or another defensive ace.
Defence better be fun to play in this game, i love playing D better than offence

updated:
charlotte
traded robinson for delfino and signed free agent mourning, moved kapono to backup 3 spot, placed hart as the starting guard, benched house as my sixth man to be the spark coming of the bench, and placed my free agent alonzo as the backup to jahadi as another offensive option in the post when omeka is on the bench. also currently scouting a 2 guard who's strength is defense for role playing purposes.

I'll get Charlotte and try to get some kids like Quyntel Woods, Al Jefferson and Ndudi Ebi ... Then I'll trade Okafor for a good SF like Tayshaun Prince.
Thu Sep 23, 2004 5:23 am
I haven't even decided what team I want to be. Of course, my Timberwolves is always a choice and if I pick them I prolly won't make any trades.
Other teams I'm considering:
1. Atlanta Hawks-ship Walker out of town for Tony Battie, Garrity and garbage
2. Miami Heat-Keep team the same, maybe sign someone
3. New Jersey Nets-Trade Kidd for Dale Davis and Claxton + pick?
Thu Sep 23, 2004 6:31 am
I will be the Miami Heat and I will look to move Jones and my first round pick for something. I will look into Vince Carter (although, I expect it will take more), Stackhouse and Daniels or Howard, Ron Artest, Stephen Jackson, James Posey, Shane Battier, Ray Allen, and Donyell Marshall.
Even if the AI accepts some trades, I will not continue with them if they are unrealistic (like if Dallas gave me Stack and Daniels).
Other than shopping Jones and possibly signing Karl Malone (assuming he doesn't sign somewhere else in real life first), I will leave my roster as is.
Thu Sep 23, 2004 6:41 am
I think that I am going to be the warriors and I will do almost anything to try and get arenas back at PG for us.
I may also play as the bobcats because i like a challenge.
Sun Sep 26, 2004 9:14 pm
I am going as my Cleveland Cavaliers. I will probably "tank" to get a high draft pick and deal Big Z for an expiring, someone like Dikembe (14 Mil) or Vlade (12 Mil). From then on, just use both LJ"s as much as possible. I will also deal Wagner for a backup SF.

Zydrunas is an expiring.
I'm going to be using Cleveland too, and I'll Wagner one season to prove his worth. I'll likely keep the team as is. But if someone really pisses me off, I won't hesistate to trade him. That goes for everyone except LeBron James.
Tue Oct 05, 2004 2:28 am
I will use my Grizzlies, and even though I started my dynasty on ps2, I won't post my dynasty til the PC version comes out. I may keep the same team I have, because that's what it seems like the Grizz are going to do in real life. If I'm not going to keep the same team, I'm going to work out a deal that the Grizz tried to do to get Eddy Curry from the Bulls.
