How's Your Association Going? (2K11)

Oh. Lol then my buddy is just a lier when it comes to basketball.

The potential factor's pretty ridiculous. I think their rating should be based off of how players play. Even dumber, if you pass 30 years old you no longer can improve potential wise as a player. So Richard Jefferson in the game can't get better like he is in real life. I always raise the potential of players I want to build around on my team. I might not realistically think Danilo Gallinari will ever be a 93, Nate Robinson a 91, and Timofey Mozgov an 80, but who's to say they can't be that good one day? Their play should be the only limiting factor in their rating.

I figured I want to start a franchise of my own tomorrow. Now no matter what team I am, I will sign my 73 rated SF rookie. So what team do you guys think I should run with. P.S. I might put Pippen and Jordan in FA. I will also have "prime" AI in the FA. Anyways suggestions???

I'm not saying this just because I used trade override, but I don't think there's complete shame to using it if you pull off a fair trade benefiting all teams involved. Let's be honest, the trade logic, although improved, is still flawed. For those true sim players who like to keep it real, they are probably more knowledgable about executing fair trades them helps them build their team (even if that means trade override) as well as not completely 100% robbing the AI teams.

Obviously there are guys that abuse trade override. But for the true sim players, if you think of a trade that's reasonable and fair, it really doesn't make sense to me to not make the trade just because the trade logic is flawed.

That's just my two cents though.

Agree about the trades... i get offered stupid trades all the time... Bosh and ___ for Rondo and Allen, etc.

However, in my association, my team is about 32-12, 4.5 games back of the Heat who have 8 losses.

Rondo 12.9 points and 6.1 assists on 6 min quarters.

Ray Allen has 12 points per game, including a 41 point outburst in which he went 7-12 from 3.

No trades made. No free agent pickups.

Weird moves in the league have stacked the Lakers. Lakers have made moves leaving them with Eddie House, Hedo, and Ben Wallace.

Utah traded mostly trash and got Rip and Prince.
