Travis Best Trade

Any ideas on who I should trade Travis Best for. Im willing to add Cliff Robinson and Jacque Vaughn. I'd rather a young guy than an older guy.

What's he rated? I guess you could go for Dickau, Hart, House, Banks, Delonte West... actually I know you said you wanted a younger guy, but Brevin Knight is one of the best PG's in Live I think and he's not really that highly rated either.

You'd probably get Jason Hart, Eddie House or maybe Marcus Banks... I don't really know all the ratings though since I'm using Xbox.

Depends on how you use your PGs... I am really struggling with short , skinny PGs that can't shoot well from outrside, like Knight and Speedy Claxton...

Guys like Brevin Knight and Speedy Claxton are good if you like fast guys who can get steals. If you like shooters, Mike James/Rafer Alston are good (not sure of their ratings though, I mention them becaues I have them in my dynasty).

I'd go with Eddie House, he can do a little bit of everything + he gets lots of steals.

Given the inability to run the break in Live 2005, their usefulness is hindered.

True, but you can still push the ball and drive.

I recently realized that the only time the game allows you to go on a fast break( meaning players keep their running momentum when you give them the ball) is after a steal... Yes, only after steals, ane even then the CPU's ridiculous catching up speed will most likely kill the break in the end....

Might want to also check out:
Leandro Barbossa
Luke Ridnour
Sebastian Telfair

Personally i try to get a big athletic defender playing the PG spot and try to stop opposing PGs, i noticed the AI uses the PG to handle the ball way too often (even on teams like the Lakers where Kobe should be the playmaker).
