Horrible Losses

Postby ShivaSquad on Tue Feb 22, 2005 3:37 pm

ok i kno there is a similar thread, "Buzzer Beaters," but it isnt appropriate for this... this is for last minute losses that we gav up to the cpu. this is fun cause we get all frustrated and throw our controllers :furious: it all started tonight wen i played the houston rockets in my phoenix suns dynasty.

alright so my team is on a 9 game win streak and i blow out every team... then here comes the houston rockets and i find myself in this amazingly close game. point for point 1 poitn game all game no lead bigger then 3, literally. first i get pissed off cause i didnt finish it off. i had the last shot wit 10 seconds left tied at 86-86. i miss wit kobe and it gets sent to OT. then i think to myself "ok this is good i get to pad my stats :shock: "

so then in OT its close wit charlie ward and tmac knocking down 3s :shock: . 15 seconds left in the game, im down 1... juwan howard has it at the top of the key behind hte 3 pt line... and the shot clock is counting down its at 3. i race amare up there JUST IN CASE howard decides to hit the 3... because ive had this happen to me so many times. by accident i press the steal button (wit the right analog, not the actuall button)... and while in the process of shooting i get the foul called on me. wow so now juwan howard goes to the line for 3. he hits all FT's... comp up by 4... i cant bring it back and i lose. the stupidest thing ever i got so pissed... broke my 9 game win streak

33 seconds left, I'm in my Suns dynasty against the Wizards. Wizards have the ball, up by 2. I've been dominating the whole game, but at the end Gilbert Arenas can't miss. I decided just to hope for a stop and bring the ball back down and score for the tie. And what do I do while defending Arenas? I accidently press the steal button, and give him 2 shots at the line because I'm in the penalty. He nails them both, I'm down by 4 with like 18 seconds left, and I end up losing.

It was from my Portland dynasty. Against the nuggets. We entered the 4th with me leading 2 digits. On the 4th, there's just no stopping anthony. the game went into shifting leads. the last possession was mine. they were leading by a point and i have the last shot. We could have won it. :x Actually, the most pathetic thing about the game is that i didn't call my last time-out. :oops:

My Rockets vs the Hornets, I'm up for the entire game, B.Diddy is having a crap game he's only hit 4 shots and taken nearly all the shots.... then I explode for 52 points in the 4th quarter (12 minute superstar, andrews sliders) and I end up winning 130sth - 50sth.... i think that was the most horrible loss for the cpu.

last possession, the lakers were leading my kings by 3. bibby broght the ball down, 10 secs to go, passed to peja, and just when peja is about to go up for the tying three, kobe steals the ball, with three seconds to go.

DAMN.

and i had worked hard to come back from a 23 point deficit in the 3rd. thieving kobe... :evil:

Alrite 10 seconds left in my Bulls dynasty. Playing the Kings. Up by one. Lead the whole game. Bibby gets the inbound and passes to Brad Miller out behind the three point line. He sinks it. I cant believe it. I am outraged becuz a guy who has a low rating on 3's makes the only one that counts. :x

I was up by two in the second conference final in me Seattle dynasty (first season) and it had been a very close game so far and it was just seconds left. As I said I was up by two and there were only seconds left and the other team (Sacramento) had position. They get it up to Bibby and with somewhat over two seconds left he got the three pointer off over Daniels; the shot clanked off the rim and I took a sigh of relief because I though I had just won the game, sadly, I weren’t boxing out since I though it was pretty much over. So that left Webber open and with my luck he managed to jump to the ball (he was standing like 6ft away) and tip it in to beat the buzzer.
Ok, I thought, I'll take them in overtime. That proved to be easier said than done. They went on a 9-0 scoring run half-way through and kept it rather intact. With about a minute to go I got the ball to Allen who drained the three, and after that started to press the Bibby during the inbounds. Bibby got the ball as Allen was to late, but he passed it to Christie who was standing by the base-line, I went for the steal and managed to know the ball out of his hands so that it fell down just inside the line; I got the ball without stepping out of bounds and went for the fade-away three pointer. It went in... I kept pressing and came away with the steal after some time and got it up court to Allen again who calmed the play down some. Called for the pick and went for the three again, and drained it. It was about 30 seconds left at this point and I decided to foul, but as the game tends to be an extremely good free throw shooter on superstar I wanted to get the ball in the hands of the worst shooter on that team, which didn't quite pan out the way I was hoping. With 22 seconds left I decided to foul Chrisite. He made the first one, and the second one as well. I called the time-out. I got the ball to Allen who pump-faked, the defender didn't move, so I decided to drive inside which went ok until I found myself locked in a double-team. I looked outside and found Daniels open at the line, and managed to get the ball out to him; he took the open three pointer and made it, swoosh. Now I was down by two with about ten seconds left. I pressed the inbounds again and got away with the steal right off the pass. I decided not to call the time out and go for it. I, after a few passes, got it to Daniels who was standing a few feet inside the line with four seconds left with two defenders if front of him, he pump-faked although they didn't fall for it, instead one of them locked me down and I wasn't able to do anything but pass. Then it happened, as I said there was two players in front of me, one of them was Christie, who now was stuck between two other players. I looked up and found Allen on the other side of the court... open. I got the pass to him and with a little less than a second left I get the three pointer up.
Now an open three with Allen shouldn't be a problem you might think. I was.... The shot clanked off the rim and I got my second loss in a row in overtime in the conference finals...

Wow, I have to add this one... I'm the Mavs against the Nets. For most of the game we haven't been playing well, having trouble on the boards, but in the 4th quarter we build up a 7 point lead. But here comes the Nets, with some late game heroics to chip my lead down. So after some dramatic turn of events and some killer shooting by Jkidd/Richard Jefferson, I'm up by 2 with 18 seconds left, Nets have the ball. I say to myself "NO BS JKIDD 3'S, NO BS JKIDD 3'S" about 50 times. So I take control of Shawn Bradley and put him right in front of Kidd. Inbound to Kidd, dribbles, pulls up to the arc, I contest with Shawn Bradley... perfect swish. No rim bounces, no backboard, no toilet-bowl rolls, all cotton. After doing everything short of frying my controller in the microwave, I go back with 8 seconds left to clank a shot off the rim from Finley. DAMN you Jason Kidd.
