Havnt for awhile on account of my new toalt football manager 2003 game but will be uploaded results from the allstar game tonight. It went down to the wire with fricken old timer malone hitting the winner for the west with .9 on the clock. Probably one of the more exciting game ive played recntly. Spree and Dyess went ok but McGrady was my main man. Marbury came away with the MVP.

Im no longer doing recaps after games since the allstar break as no one really reads them and im down to only 10 hits a day maybe i will start them up again next season if there is some interest. As for the highlights ill keep them going as they have been fairly popular. Tonight i will be updating the rest of my results from the second half of the season. Check it out to see if i made the playoffs.

I like your recaps, to be honest. Maybe if you have a really good game you could write it up? (like the All-Star game)

Good move on trading Houston... That contract is a monster drag on the cap. So do you have Spree playing SG? Whose your starting SF?

I think your the only one lol but anyway i had to move Spree back to SF becuase i had no one to replace him there so im on a bit of a rotation system with Eisley and Dell. Some games Dell plays SG and Francis goes point and some Francis plays SG cause Eisley goes point. I think i need to swing another trade in the offseason i dont really like the setup at the moment, Im playing the last game of the season tongiht adn all results will be posted. No recaps just some game notes instead.

Well my season has finished and it was really disapointing. 11 - 18! and i was really in the chase for the playoffs too but ive never been so glad to miss the playoffs before, why? I signed the #1 rookie with the 9th pick and his a shooting guard just what i needed that or a small forward but he will do. Alex Denman is his name 19yo rated 86! So anyway my new season starts 8th March 2003 so check it out then. Ive done some end of season reports and highlight updates so there is still plenty to go and see while i take a weeks break. Anway im gonna be even more commited to season two with plenty of highlights up to date stats and anything possible to make it the best franchise site around(sorry if that offends anyone). So anway thank to everyone who visited and linked my site in my first season and cant wait to start again. :)

Wow, I've never seen a guy drop through the draft like that. A 19-year old 86 could be really good for a long time. I drafted a guy like that once (an 88 coming out of the draft) but with the #1 overall pick.

Nice post-season moves, btw. Your C and PF positions are now totally stacked. Heck, your whole team looks pretty good. I look forward to your next season!

I gave up on my Knicks franchise after winning a championship, as all I wanted to do was see how long it would take. However, I may pick it up again just to see how well my awesome rookie guy does.

I only wish my rookie turns out to be that good. For 86 yes he is solid but his shooting is a bit average im at wokr at the moment and dont know his exact ratings but i would only class him average on both his inside and outside shooting. He doesnt really excel at anything particular but he is an all rounder so hopfully he will end up with all round excellent skills one day. At the moment Smith is still getting good minutes behind Denman cause im not totally confident with him but i think by next season he will have a bigger role with the team.

So how's the redesign? I haven't paid much attention to NBA Live since I picked-up a couple of nice Xbox games on the cheap (Amped and Project Gotham Racing).

I coulnt be bothered so i decided not to and im not playing either at the moment due to a good game total club manmager 2003. I think i started my second season to quickly after the first. I havent given up on it but i think i might take a months break before i start again.
