Eli Manning and Tank Williams...oh NBA Live. I don't have it yet. Chances are Amare and Shawn. For the simple fact they're wearing Suns uniforms.

Actually I'm having a ton of fun with Lamar Odom, his size coupled with his quickness makes him downright deadly.

by **Riot** on Fri Oct 01, 2004 12:30 pm

I've played with many teams but no more than my Timberwolvse and let's just say this: KG on NBA Live 2005 is unbelievable. I mean, he can do EVERYTHING. He is a beast in the paint, he can hit threes consistently (!) and he can handle the rock like a PG.

Other than him I like using Ricky Davis.

i have been trading for him every single franchise i do since he was drafted into the league. i could always play him at almost any position and he would be great for me. i would say over the years he has become my fav nba live player(no way near fav irl). i remember a few years back when the clips had all them young players with loads of talent and tons of cap room. man i used to trade almost my entire team for thiers lol. i think they had 6 people i could easily snacth up from them(one year keith gloss played for them and i got him as a back up but he ended up dominating the boards and blocking everything so he started).

same thing..only surprisingly with VIN BAKER

I played my first ONLINE game for NBA LIVE 05 tonight...I was the Knicks my friend was Boston...anywho

I won..but I put In Vin Baker as C beginning of 4th(rest of game) 10pts....8 rebounds(5 minute quarters)...pretty good for a former drunkie lol

That's weird, same here! Though I'd always have to edit the EA version of Lamar so his ratings would go down to zero and then place him in the free agent pool. Then I'd create my own version of Odom and place him on the Clippers with the same exact ratings and player info. Why? Because year after year they made Odom the complexion of Wesley Snipes! Remember how dark he was?

Thank God, he's medium-brown like he's supposed to be...It's also great that he's already on my favorite team!

im having alot of fun with kobe bryant and josh howard

i traded for josh howard in my dynasty for odom and some throw ins, the reason i like josh howard is cuz when kobe gets doubled i have another swingman to score, but its still kobe's team when he does that, its not truly kobe's team with odom on it, my fav rookie right now is jameer nelson, he is extremely fast, and he is the only rookie ive played wit along wit devin harris

has anyone noticed that the players get better during hte season? nelson was a 52 now he is a 56

by **cyanide** on Fri Oct 01, 2004 12:54 pm

I never thought of that cuz I enjoy playing my games as a team, and don't really care about individual performances that much. I really enjoy playing as Larry Bird, and Jordan can be fun too. Other than the retired guys, Tim Duncan is surprisingly fun (being the fundamental freak I am). I also like controlling Peja, and Jason Kidd is fun too. For shooting guards that jam it home, Vince and Paul Pierce are guys I'd go to.

by **Matt** on Fri Oct 01, 2004 4:01 pm

bac in the day it was Grant Hill. Now though I like to work with Rasheed Wallace, he's my go-to-guy

other players I like to use are:
Billups- He's a smaller Stephon Marbury for me
Stackhouse- I could dominate with him
Sprewell- his quickness made defenders obsolete
Tim Hardaway- same as Spree + 3's

Shaq. Me Shaq. Shaq crush. Shaq kill. Shaq score 40 points per game.

But Shaq get fouled every single layup attempt in NBA Live 2005. Shaq sad... :cry:

Shaq have to make free throws...Free throw thingy moves too fast..(Real Shaq doesn't talk like this...kind of..)

by **Bang** on Fri Oct 01, 2004 4:16 pm

Shaq has 80 something jump and 99 dunk...why can't he enter the dunk contest? SHAQ MAD!

rofl! that's funny

My boy Ray Allen is my favorite. Rashard Lewis is making a quick and huge impact for me and the Sonics. I am still debating if I want to continue the dynasty with the Sonics, or jump ship to another franchise.

I like controlling Jwill and Posey. This game now gives the smaller players an advantage and Jwill just tears eveybody on the court with his handling and since I'm good in the game now, I know how to use realistic crossovers to get by opponents that makes it look like the real Jwill. I like Posey as well because it looks like the game got their shooting style from Posey because Posey shoots exactly like how the game has everyone shooting in 5 on 5 mode. I like throwing alleys to Stro on the break from Jwill too! :shock:

by **oboeguy** on Sat Oct 02, 2004 2:48 am

I used to use Allan Houston in 2004 quite a bit. Lit up the other team night in, night out. I think his ratings reeeally dropped this year though so I will be using Steph a lot more. Also, JKidd was my man when I used the Nets. I also enjoyed using RJ to setup alley-oops from JKidd (off-ball control).

My favorite bench player was always Charlie Ward before he got traded. Always good for a couple of quick threes before the opponent knew what hit him. I may have Houston come off the bench with the Knicks now and take over that role!

I guess I'll get a better feel for the players in 2005 as the days go on (still only played one game so far

).

The reason Shaq cant enter the dunk contest is bc he is over 7 ft tall...no one over 7 ft can enter the contest :roll:

Dirk and Odom are awesome. I did a Fantasy draft and picked both of em up and they just dominate together.

by **Spinners** on Mon Oct 04, 2004 2:56 am

I like contolling Vince Carter. He is pretty quick. He has a decent 3 point shot and a good mid range game. He is an amazing dunker. Also pretty good at D in this game. Other players i like contolling are Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony and Peja (Amazing 3 point shooter).
