This is my SF.
Once you get to 80 Dunk, contact dunk happens 2-3 times a game.

In the showcase i had like 26 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists or something. i shot only like 40%, i was forcing a lot because well its the showcase and i really didnt care about my % i got interviewed by the Jazz, Pacers, and Suns. the Pacers wanted me to move to SG since they have Granger, told them no. i already have a player on the Jazz so i told them i wasnt gonna play for them. and so i told the Suns i would play for them, because i didnt want to drop way back into the 20's since then my contract would suck i love Nash, and i will love playing with him, even though we probably wont win much, and they usually trade him eventually. but still should be fun for a while. i will probably leave either when they trade nash, or maybe stick it out til my contract is up. unless they trade and get some talent or sign somebody good, i will leave for sure.

This is what I did (although my SF is only 6'4"). I haven't played a basketball game since PlayStation... the first one, so I'm learning as a go. LOTS of losses at the beginning, but as I, and my player, improved, so did the team. I'm thinking Team Chemistry effects team play a lot. That's mainly what I go for in the press conferences, and, even though my player is much better then when he started, Gortat & Morris are grabbing mad rebounds now. Rebounds I was getting. Also, there seem to be more makes by my team.

Nash and I get along great and he hasn't left yet. I only have two problems:

1. I can't drive the lane worth a crap. I'm sure this is just me and not being smooth with the controls, but I am constantly bumping into players and losing the ball.
2. If we play an elite point guard, we lose. Nash's virtual defensive self mimics the real thing and the game goes after him hard.

CENTER/ATH/KINGS/2nd/OVR: 83

Nothing less than a playoff berth for The Eraser!

The Eraser, is proud to announce that his Jordan brand shoe is on the market.

Just in time I need an away shoe for my Guards. Both of the Brand Shoes are +4 - 3-Pt ; since that is the skill point I emphasis the least, but, they will work great for my Guards outside shots from deep.

Skill Points:
At the moment the AI is being a real pain with Stamina, so I boosted from (80) to (85) and dropped a little into my Off Awareness after some pretty "rugged" (bumping) play in Minn (Timberwolves).

Based on my Player Card (Pos Avg Ratings), I only need to boost my Pass (34), Hands (51), then I intend to MAX OUT Off Rebound (85). Still have not really gotten to my Free Throws (77), it needs a bump to (80) before I save for my Abilities. After that enhance Layup, Shot Medium and give him some Emotion every now and then.

Kings: We are really starting to gel as a team. Still having problems with Jimmer Fredette (68) inexperience and poor perimeter D (C+). We are still overly dependent on the 3; but, when the cub needs a basket, no one shoots until the Eraser get a few in the Low Post....it's good to be the No. 1 option...

Key Game(s) - Back-to-Back;

@Mavericks: A little saavy play by Jimmer and the Eraser and we had Dirk Nowitzki in serious foul trouble (3) in the 1st Quarter! Meanwhile the cheese began with Vince Carter and Jason Kidd draining 3s to keep it close. The 2nd half more cheese as Dirk returns and instead of shooting his fadeway he is constanting driving and pulling off spin/layups (no he didnt dunk or I would have needed a new controller) . We keep them at bay (10 pt cushion) until 1:53 left in the 4th Qtr when they close to within 6.



Were not having it, the Mavs in the full court press fail to account for the Eraser just over the mid-court line, he gets the long in-bound pass and drives all the way and slams it down. The next possession they foul Jimmer (not in the penalty); again the Eraser gets the inbounds pass near the right corner; Dirk turns his back and the Eraser sprints to the hoop, thru Dirk, and WINDMILL SLAMS it Down over Vince Carter!!!

DIRK: 26 PTS
THE ERASER: 28PTS; 3 REBS, 3 ASST, 3 BLKS
KINGS 107; MAVS 98

@ Bulls: Was surprised that they consider a matchup with Joakim Noah a Key Game, but, who doesn't want a 2X skill point multipier, so no complaints. Plus Noah is the player I used as a Skill Set template for creating the Eraser.

However, I knew this was going to be a tough one for Jimmer to handle Derrick Rose. I spent most of the game grinding it out in the paint on offense, boxing out Noah and helping jimmer in the lane.

We had them by 7 at the half, and it stayed pretty much there until the end. No spectacular slam dunks to close this one out, just grit and hustle in the paint!!!



The Eraser would deny (block) Carlos Boozer and Derrick Rose (blocked 3 of his shots) in the last 00:52 while Jimmer buried 6 consecutive foul shots for the win.

ROSE: 24 Pts, 6 Asst, 3 Steals, Zero Turnovers
THE ERASER: 32PTS; 14 REBS, 1 ASST, 4 BLKS
KINGS 89; BULLS 81

SG - Shooting - Pacers - 6-6/207 - Draft glitch neutral and a team that just needs another young "good" player SG - Shooting - Warriors - 6-6/217 - A total mess here, they already have Monta Ellis (83) and they draft me (62) and Klay Thompson (65). Leaning towards playing the GS Warriors my player 5 games, then asking for a trade, that should land me somewhere @ 11 games that actually needs a SG before he becomes a Starter. Potential Trade: Nets or Magic...Raptors, T-Wolves, Suns (not Draft glitch neutral)

This has turned into a NIGHTMARE!!!

Instead of starting a reasonable challenge, MY GREED FOR SKILL POINTS (11th pick overall) takes over and I decide to try and AGAIN manipulate the game.

I followed my plan and played SG-Warriors 5 games (minimum) and asked for a trade to the Nets, Wizards or the Magic

Warriors: Monta Ellis (Ovr: 83; has a 4 yr contract); Interested teams:Celtics and Kings

So I took my lumps (booing) and at the 10th game management comes back to me and says they were UNABLE to make a trade at this time! Game 11; I am now the Starter over Ellis and the only team interested in my services is the Cavs. On top of all that while creating the "trade" file for this exercise I SAVED OVER the Wizards file I already created!!!

Sorry for my Rant, you would think after specifically telling the Warriors I was un-interested in playing Small Forward they would have passed on me? And yes, I spent most of my time on the floor guarding Small and POWER forwards @ 6-6, because Ellis (6-3) is small for a SG!!!

Since my SF only has 2 key games in season, I will continue playing it in a few hours. I am not sure if I want to stay with 76ers. Not because of draft glitch, but because of players in rotation. With our record, we wouldve been in top 5 in draft and with the lottery pick, we couldve have been given the #1 pick. If we draft a frountcourt player, I will stay. If we draft a backcourt player, I will leave no question. We NEED a PF. I am tired of getting exploited by Amare and other PFs. If I knew I was going to play alot of PF, I wouldve made him taller. Plus, 76ers are good at the wing positions.
This season I focused on certain areas of offense. next year I will focus on Vertical, Consistency, and Defense.

I had my first win as a Grizzly against the Pistons. Randolph was going off the whole game and I believe he scored 36 or 38 points. I had another double double and hit my first career three I finally got it up to a 70 after spending a lot of skill points into it. The only downside from that game is the 6 turnovers I ended up with, at least 4 of which were undeserving. I love playing for Memphis but I don't know how to get Rudy Gay involved in our offense. I play with run plays on and almost none are for him. Should I specifically call plays for him? By the way I got an endorsement for 2K Sports magazine which is pretty cool.
