That was a great game, I'm glad to know there aren't too many "cheesers" on XBL. Game was fairly simulation and I enjoyed it.

Yep. Good game man. I try to keep the offense balanced. Push it sometimes, dump it to the post, stay behind the arc, looking for cuts to the basket. The only time I will keep bombing away form three is if I am so far behind that I have no choice.

I submitted proposals in the game's league page for about 5 different opponents, with those games being proposed for either Monday or Wednesday night.
Also the automatic new roster update (from Oct. 30) seems to have fixed the league freezing glitch, so no need now to do the steps on the previous page.

Good game Disturbed. I am just glad I got my game against Yao fucking Ming out of the way. People weren't shitting when they said it was almost impossible to stop him. I mean 9 blocks......really??? And for some reason Dwayne Wade missed like 5 open jumpers, I have no idea what happened there. It's back to the drawing board for the Heat I suppose. :)
And yeah good luck to you too. I gave you some good post game marks for what that's worth.
Is there a way to talk during games? I don't know if you had a headset or not, I tried to talk to you once but nothing happened. That was my 1st online game so I am still learning over here.

Yeah, I didn't hear you. Otherwise I would have put my mic in. Usually, I don't use a mic on XBL due to the immature audience on XBL.
However, you left Rafer Alston open way too much. Rockets are an inside out team, Alston got hot quick.

I benched Marbury's ass out of frustration because of that foul lol. Crawford had some easy lay ups but he decided to do some crazy ass moves which made it more difficult to score.
Curry, Z-Bo, and Lee had no chance in stopping those two beasts. When I finally had a plan to stop Chandler or West, you'd kick it back out to Peja who torched my ass.
Ah well, I need to improve my post up D or trade for a player that can defend hehe.

Yah welcome to CAG leagues. Although I cant talk I havent played a game yet but it was more of the fault of the shitty ass system that is set up.

I remember you played that game against the Suns but did not count because of the messed up scheduling system. I went in and fixed it so now you should see that you got the win. GuilewasNK, I also fixed your record and It should show up correctly also.

Yeah, it was 60-56 with Hitman winning with 1 minute or so left in the 3rd quarter. After a timeout, he got disconnected and I saw the screen with the "Waiting for player" countdown of 30 seconds. He was still on Live and was able to join a private chat while said countdown was still going on. The game was really good back and forth stuff, too. Fucking 2K servers...

So, is it que, which is how the 2K site spells it, or queue, which Firefox seems to think is correct?

I had 10 total rebounds in the game. He shot a whopping 71% from the field and got 76 of 89 points in the paint en route to a 89-73 victory. Good game, Jason.

I dominated the first quarter 18-7, but Jason got in his groove and came back within 1 by scoring 23 points in the 2nd. I pulled ahead in the 3rd and managed to maintain my lead for the victory. Both teams had quite a few blocks, with Chris Kaman being the leader with 5.
Laker stat lines:
Bryant- 30 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists
Fisher- 17 points, 10 assists
Bynum- 8 points, 11 rebounds, 3 blocks
Final: Lakers 71, Clippers 58
Good game, Jason. Too bad your mic didn't work. You're fun to talk to.

11-06-2008, 08:50 PM
Ugh. You ripped up my interior early, even though Kaman had 5 blocks. I couldn't guard Kobe and kept collapsing on your bigs. I sucked. I tried to do some set plays but, eh, it just took a lot of time off the shot clock. Other than B. Diddy and Kaman, my guys weren't doing so well offensively. I couldn't get Mobley going, or Thornton.
I'm as disgusted as I was last night in the real game.. haha.

That's not true at all. It was a back and forth close game until midway through the 3rd. I pulled ahead by 10+, but a couple times, you came within 6 before I finally pulled away.
Question: How do injuries work in leagues? Gasol separated his shoulder diving for a loose ball midway through the 1st, and Leandro Barbosa got the same injury in the 3rd.
Amare Stoudemire was the leading scorer of the game with 32 points. Kobe had his second straight 30 point game, all scored in 3 quarters since Phoenix's D shut him down in the 4th and then he came out with 2 minutes left. Both point guards- Steve Nash and Derek Fisher- had 5 points and 9 assists. Andrew Bynum was player of the game with 21 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists, and Lamar Odom was money off the bench with 18 points and 6 boards.
Final: Lakers 90, Suns 74.
Good game, Immortal. We play one more time this season in L.A.
Oh yeah, do you not use a mic? I tried talking before the game and didn't hear a response. I figured it was because it was late and you were tired. But thanks for playing in spite of that fact.

It was a fun game. I couldn't get Nash going at all, his 2-9 shooting really hurt. When I saw Barbosa dive for that loose ball, the way he landed I just knew they'd give him the injury like Gasol. I laughed. I do usually have a mic, but the wife and baby were asleep, and I tend to get a bit loud sometimes if I have it on.
Matt Young
11-07-2008, 03:32 AM
Well hey, the one game I used a mic for, I lost. The 2 I didn't, I won. I'm about to see if that streak holds up (hopefully not) with FrankySox.
It was fun, though. Back and forth throughout the first half; the dunk-off to start the 3rd quarter... Then it got ugly on both sides with the turnovers. But I look forward to playing again sometime soon!
Matt Young
11-07-2008, 04:44 AM
Wow... FrankySox and I were playing the best game ever. Josh Powell was a beast, scoring 20+ points, and Franky had just tied the game at 107 with 7 seconds left. The game disconnected us and said the 2K Sports servers were unavailable. Fuck this shit.
EDIT: Oh, it turns out Gasol's out 4 games, though I did just fine without him. Same for Barbosa. He'll miss Phoenix's next 4.
FrankySox
11-07-2008, 04:51 AM
Well Holy FUCK!!!! The 2K servers just ruined a great game. Matt Young (LA Lakers) and I (Trail Blazers) were playing deep into the fourth quarter. There was 7 seconds left and I had JUST hit a three pointer with Bayless to tie it up. I went through setting up my account and the que so I could play. We get to the fourth and BAM everything gone. Both of us had guys who were having stud games. The score was 107-107. No matter what happens when we replay this game it wont come close to our first game...too bad. They better be putting a patch up for this game if they are taking the servers down.

Does anyone want to play tonight? I would like to know before I get into Gears mode. Anytime I show up as online, just send me a message and if I can I'll drop everything to play a game. Or let's schedule a time in advance on here preferred.
I'm probably going to break down and spend the $10 to change the CAG 2K Sports gamertag into CAG NBA 2K. I'll post when I do and send invites out.
Couldn't you just create a new silver account?

Good game Immortal, you were really causing me problems at first ang my guys turning the ball over didn't help either. The games was close up to the middle part of the 3rd quarter, that's when I started to stretch my lead thanks to the big 3 of Arenas, Jamison and Butler, and also the rebounding edge 38-14. I need to work on my defense and take better care of the ball somehow ; need to get my guys to stop doing those damn suicidal passes. Final score; Wizards 90 - Suns 72.

Yup..you took over the game in the 3rd quarter, outscored me bigtime (28-13) and my guys went cold in the 2nd haft after pretty much everything I shot in the 1st half was falling in. I almost made a run at the end but just ran out of time. Good games though :)

Hey guys. With very very sad remorse I will have to pull out of the league. I am truly sorry.
I have been getting a lot of work recently and I dont think its fair to you guys to just take up a spot in the league with very little hope of playing. My schedule is getting crazier by the day and its just to hard to meet up with you guys and play a game. And I really dont want to turn into "that guy" who keeps saying he will play but then not showing.
Again I am sorry, and please consider me for future leagues the timing just wasnt right for me this time.
Matt Young
11-12-2008, 10:11 PM
Damn... I hope this doesn't fail. Not putting it on you, Sood. I'm just saying.
I should be able to play tomorrow before 6 Pacific. I was pretty busy last week and haven't felt like playing these past few days, between getting Gears 2 and Call of Duty: WaW as well as adjusting mentally and physically after changing medications. But I guess I don't really need to apologize since I still am tied for most games played, and really have played the most since my game with FrankySox was disconnected with 7 seconds left, and I played 3 quarters with MSUHitman before we had to redo the game.
Speaking of FrankySox, why was he moved from the Pacific division, which now has 4 teams (discounting the fact that Denver has no owner) to the Atlantic division, which now has 6 teams?

I don't think it will work, that's only for 20-120. You'll need to get one of those Datel HD backup things, backup the files to your pc, then put them on the 60GB HD.

Duncan (30 pts, 11 rebs) and Ginobili (26 pts - 4/5 3pt) were just too much, specially Duncan killing me in the paint but I deserved it for not double teaming him.

Ugh. I've replaced my 360 (just for future reference, you CAN transfer from a 20gb HDD to a 60 gb HDD using the data migration kit Microsoft sends out) and now my internet is out. Someone came to repair it on Friday and decided doing something outside would fix the problem (it didn't) and never came out. My landlady justifiably was angry and then when Comcast said they couldn't reschedule for two weeks, flipped out and canceled the service. I don't anticipate it being very long until I get back online, but in the meantime, I obviously can't play any games.

Yeah I never take that many outside shots but I couldn't get the ball inside and I've learned you have to be selective with your drives to the basket (especially with Paul.) If Peterson could have hit the broad side of a barn (0-6 from 3) it would have made a big difference. Also most turnovers I've had in a game so your D was tight. Great game.

Also, I had to do some adjusting on the league page to the W-L records since some of them were not showing up correctly on the website (but they do so when accessed on the 360).
I've also noticed that there's about 3 teams that have not played a single game and their users have not been around here participating actively in this thread. I will be reaching out to these people and if I don't get a reply soon after then we're gonna have to start looking for replacements.
Once again I want to thank all of you that are actively playing your games and trying to set up some matchups. The times I've played against my opponents have been full of fun no matter if I win or lose and I look forward to playing with more people that use the headset :) I also want to point out some stats:
- Dallas Maverics (WeavShow) have the most wins and the best record (4-0), followed by the Lakers
(Matt Young) and their 3-1 start.
- Kobe Bryant leads the league in scoring (31.3 PPG)
- Wizards and Suns have played the most games sofar (5 games each)
- Chris Paul is averaging 11 assists per game (3 games)
- After 5 games the Suns are winless :(
- Only 2 uploaded videos ??? we need more fellas c'mon!
Remember to free up your game queue of the games that you have completed already, create a user ID @ the 2Ksports website in order to arrange your schedule from there and if possible post some game results on this thread. :)

I'm not about to take sides, but I just want to say that this is one of the few things I hate about leagues- the dude that beat Denver deserves to keep his win, but you don't deserve a loss. But Masked Lemon is a good guy and wouldn't have bailed if he had any other choice, so I'm not faulting him.
Yeah, sorry I haven't been more active in the league. Gears 2 was a big distraction, and so was school. Gears hype faded out, so I'm ready to come back-- well, I mean, after Thanksgiving. =d
Gears hype may have faded, but I still have just as many Live friends playing it... We should play that game sometime, for the record.
JuanC, dudedizzle- I can play Sunday. I'd love to get at least one game in, if not more. If we start any time through 7 P.M. Pacific, that'd be good for me. Let me know if you are available, please.

I made a mistake. I said I could play on Sunday, but I can't. Turns out there's a hockey game at 5 (my friend has season tickets) and I forgot about it till last night. No one accepted my challenge anyway, but I just wanted to let everyone know.
I have been busy every night this past week between hockey games and the holidays, and I have been going to sleep early to try to adjust so I can get up early (compared to my insomniac/falling asleep well after sunrise schedule) on Monday for a placement exam for school. But after Monday I'll be back to being available often and in the evenings. There's also the strong possibility that I can play Sunday and Monday if we start no later than noon Pacific/3 Eastern.

I just realized Goodfella's season recap was wrong. The Mavericks don't have the best record at 4-0. They're 2-0. I had the best record at 3-1. Now I'm tied with MSUHitman, who beat me. But I would have the higher seeding due to being a division leader. Still, he's out of a playoff spot (I know it's very early) and I'm ranked 2nd in the conference due to the Mavericks being 2-0.

Alright, I won't make a huge fuss if everybody thinks the other way, but I don't see how it's fair to penalize me over the person who just joined the league. I was here from the beginning. Makes more sense to me that the penalty for joining late is you take whatever record your team had before you joined.
Also, it could make the league take a lot longer. What if someone drops out when they've already played 8 games? Are we going to have to wait for the new guy to play all 8 of those games while the rest of us sit around waiting? Obviously I'm biased, but I think it makes more sense to just keep the records the way they are.

I've also noticed that there's about 3 teams that have not played a single game and their users have not been around here participating actively in this thread. I will be reaching out to these people and if I don't get a reply soon after then we're gonna have to start looking for replacements.
Once again I want to thank all of you that are actively playing your games and trying to set up some matchups. The times I've played against my opponents have been full of fun no matter if I win or lose and I look forward to playing with more people that use the headset :) I also want to point out some stats:
- Dallas Maverics (WeavShow) have the most wins and the best record (4-0), followed by the Lakers
(Matt Young) and their 3-1 start.
- Kobe Bryant leads the league in scoring (31.3 PPG)
- Wizards and Suns have played the most games sofar (5 games each)
- Chris Paul is averaging 11 assists per game (3 games)
- After 5 games the Suns are winless :(
- Only 2 uploaded videos ??? we need more fellas c'mon!
Remember to free up your game queue of the games that you have completed already, create a user ID @ the 2Ksports website in order to arrange your schedule from there and if possible post some game results on this thread. :)
I haven't checked the whole thread but if you still need a replacement and don't have a waiting list, sign me up for any team that's inactive.

FrankySox should be happy that he can use his favorite camera angle.
Also, Goodfella- can you please address the whole win/loss record issue for replacement players so that there are no disputes in the future?
If anyone can play at 6 Eastern, or late tonight, as in midnight Eastern or a little later, I'm game.
dudedizzle27
12-03-2008, 06:21 PM
I'll play you tonight. Hopefully, you're not a Kobe cheeser though that should be addressed partly with the update. Oh, and by the way the replacement issue has been addressed as my record has been reset.
Matt Young
12-03-2008, 07:00 PM
What is your definition of a Kobe cheeser? Of course I use Bryant as my main offensive option because he's the best player on my team and one of the best in the league.
dudedizzle27
12-03-2008, 07:59 PM
Yeah, but I'm talking every time down the court you drive in with kobe through any defense and he throws up a wild shot or rampages through everything receiving a dunk and usually an undeserved blocking foul. When you score 65 with kobe and your team total is 75, your cheesing.
Matt Young
12-03-2008, 08:20 PM
Oh, okay. I'll admit, I will go for the dunk if I think I have an easy 2, but I often try to set up my offense for the best possible open shot whether it's Kobe taking it or not. I'm averaging 88.5 ppg with my team and Kobe's averaging 31.3 per.
As for the replacement issue, I was referring to down the line like if, such as in a scenario someone suggested, a user has played 8 games and then is replaced. Resetting the record then would not only be unfair, but would basically kill the league. I was just wondering what Goodfella's stance was.
dudedizzle27
12-03-2008, 10:46 PM
Yeah, I understand that kind of replacement, but I'm talking about the 1 loss that was reset due to it being earned by the player prior to me.
-GoodFella-
12-04-2008, 01:09 PM
My stance?, plain & simple: As a replacement you assume the record already left by the prior user whether it be 1 loss or 10 losses.....you can't take away the wins from the other members that earned them. It's the consequences of joining a league already in progress.
FrankySox

Yeah I agree, we have enough problems trying to get people to play as it is. Resetting the records would be a guarantee that this league never gets done.
I'll be on around 10:30 to 11:00est time tonight. I'd like to get in a game or two. I'm the Blaze

but there's a chance for a rematch, cause it look like the 2k league didn't recognize it. Which is weird cause it was in my queue and we played @ the Clippers, which it stated. =/

Maybe he didn't put it in his queue. Anyone up to play the Lakers over the weekend? Saturday is best for me as I am attending hockey games Friday and Sunday night.

I THINK the website even counted it.

Good game WeavShow. Maaaan, that shot didn't look like it was going in. It was actually a set play-- Kaman was supposed to set a screen to pick off Kidd, but instead, you jumped-- so Kaman didn't set the screen and I just did a fadeaway...
haha. I would've made another highlight reel but the only one I wanted to save was the ally-oop ones, which weren't savable. =p

-GoodFella-

Looks like your game was disconnected.
Matt Young
12-05-2008, 09:14 PM
Yeah, if you are the one who is disconnected, you get the loss regardless of score. I guess that because the game has no way to discern between intentional quitters and simple lost connections.
shinryuu
12-05-2008, 09:34 PM
Yeah, dudedizzle's connection is kinda shaky-- during our games, today and yesterday, that little "Waiting for Connection..." would pop-up. Is it possible to change the game results GoodFella so we can do this game again? =p

Hm, what else can you do as commish? As you probably know, the rosters are kinda outdated. I sent a trade offer to the Knicks (for Randolph) so is it possible to accept it for him since the Knicks owner isn't responding?

I'll have to look into it some more but for now I can only see trade offers. When I try to use the "analize" option nothing happens.
Matt Young
12-06-2008, 08:31 PM
I don't think it'd be fair to accept it for him. What if he doesn't want to give up Randolph? The rosters are outdated now, yes, but we essentially severed all ties to the real NBA once we started our season. Trades, injuries, etc. should be determined by the players in the 2K9 league itself.

Yeah I agree. We can't follow everything that happens in the NBA, this is a separate franchise. Greg Oden got injured on my team but I'm not asking to have the commish take him off the injured list since he's not injured in real life. I mean I'm 1-3 and I'm not asking to reset my record to what the Blazers record actually was after four games. I think once you start the league you accept that any changes made in the real NBA are irrelevant, as we've started our own simulation.

Updated the OP with XBL gamertag for all league members. Click on the 360 icon next to the user's CAG name to send the user a Xbox live PM when you want to play a league game.
Also want to remind all that in order for 2K sports to recognize the league games that you played you must choose the "send challenge" option when you are in the league lobby and are getting ready to play against an opponent. DO NOT CHOOSE the "send custom challenge" option or else your match will not count! I have no control over this....blame it on 2K sports and their crazy ways :)

You were owning with Amare and Shaq early on and then you kinda drifted away from that.
FrankySox, I'm not sure but it really looked like you disconnected on purpose. It was looking like a blowout and you kept jumping around when I wasn't even looking to shoot. You also kept jacking up 3s. The first half didn't even end. If it was just a random disconnect, we'll have to play later. Sorry.

You also kept jacking up 3s. The first half didn't even end. If it was just a random disconnect, we'll have to play later. Sorry.
Okay first off, I was trying to get you to drive to the hoop, and you weren't taking it. I moved everyone out of the way once to see if you'd take it, which you didn't. I just wanted to get a feel for how you play, I figure it out, terribly slow and boring, which is fine I just wanted to know so I could set up my defense for the situation. I also like to play a fast paced game where I don't like to hold the ball more than ten seconds. Also my DNF was ZERO before going into that game. I believe the score was 25-12 in the second quarter and you think I would have quit because of that? That is hardly a blowout. My record is 1-3 and you think I just picked my game with you to quit? I'm sure the people I've played with here will cover for me. In my last game I was down to the Mavericks by about 15 but kept in it for a while until the fourth quarter which is when I started getting blasted. I hate quitting games and I get pissed when people do it. I figured you got disconnected too kind of like what happened when me and Matt Young played our game.
I sent you a message on Xbox right after you sent yours saying that I would spot you back the points. I didn't quit on purpose and would love to play you again. Also it's very hard for me to go in low because Oden is done forever, so expect a ton more threes.
FrankySox
12-07-2008, 11:42 PM
I just checked and it gave me a loss, I'm probably going to wait a while to play my next game. First Matt and our game gets disconnected right at the end then this...crappy pants!

I got disconnected with FrankySox again. This time it was the 2k servers. I was leading by 21 a few minutes into the 4th, so, I'm not sure he still wants to play again or what. I like ultra-outrebounded him because of his 2-3 zone.
FrankySox
12-09-2008, 05:30 PM
Well it looks like it gave you the win which is a good thing. Yeah I got killed on the boards, I have to run that because I wont get boards anyways since Oden is gone.
What I'm confused about is the same thing happened to Matt and I but the game didn't count, maybe because we were tied. I'm not saying this shouldn't count because you had me fair and square (Probably twice). Plus I'm glad it counted because I don't want to play you again.
Also can you please tell me how you were involved in a game in which 207 points were scored? How did someone get you to play at a faster pace?
FrankySox
12-09-2008, 05:32 PM
If anyone wants a free win tonight I'm able to play. Ever since that heartbreaking loss to the Hornets I can't hit the broad side of the barn. I think I'm shooting about 30% in my last five quarters. I'd really like a home game.

12-09-2008, 05:51 PM

Get over the fact that I killed you. Plus cherry picking was not really my game plan at all; I didn't score too many fast break points. I just like a fast tempo to a game and could tell I'd get you out of your rhythm with it.

Cherry picking wasn't your gameplan? HAHA you even changed your coach settings. After almost every rebound you'd pass it to JR Smith. Granted, I shouldn't have played your game and could've adjusted, but whatever, it's over.
