Just started My Team. Got this team with AJ Price but sold him to get Marshon Brooks. I have Byron Scott as the coach, Suns playbook, Kings home court, and these jerseys.
PG: Mack/Selby
SG: Brooks/Mason
SF: Babbit/I forgot
PF: Rashard/Jeremy Evans
C: Steimsma/buttload of center that I would sell for cheap silver players
3-0 so far, haven't played a game in 8th seed. Two of those wins were rage quits when they were down double digits with around a minute to 30 second left in the game Once summer comes, I would probably slow down on my My Career since I'm already in my 4th season and go all out for My Team. My plan would be to get at least 1 current top player(LeBron/KD/Melo), find some gold legends, and buy supporting silver/gold players.
I was 1 game away from the 4th seed with it being my last game (you only get 12 games to advance & I was something like 6-5 with 1 game left).
I was whooping some guy's ass who had a bunch of star players, like LBJ, KD & Melo, all on the same team. 4th quarter with 2 min to go, I'm up by 8. Game starts giving me messages saying the other guy's Internet connection sucks. You know, when it says, "Waiting on opponent" and has a timer to give them a chance to come back.
It happens about 4 times in a span of 2-3 mins, then I get a message saying the server connection was bad and the game couldn't be continued. I got the LOSS!!! Wtf?!
It's happened 2 other times to me, too. What kind of b.s is that?
I got LeBron along with Tony Allen, and my defense has improved. I've only lost once since I got both of them and that was against a guy that was shooting nothing but 3's with Curry, Allen, and Melo, along with Wade, Dwight, Shaq and Bird coming off his bench. Dude only beat me by 3.
Some of these guys have stacked teams yet they still struggle to beat a team where my 2nd and 3rd best players are Tony Allen and Gary Neal.
Switched my home jersey with the Alex English era Nuggets jersey, and the home court to the AT&T Center. Bought some gold packs and got Bobby Jackson(silver classic player). Also sold Shelvin Mack for CJ Watson, Babbit for T-Ross, Ayon for T-Rob, Kwame Brown for Neal, and Pittman for Green.
Played 5 games in the 8th seed with a 2-3 record. First one was a choke, I had a 5 point lead with 2 minutes left, got good shots but missed a lot of them. Lost by 7 Game 2 was a 19 point loss. Dude had Shareef Abdur-Rahim, MJ, Magic, KD, Bird, and Hakeem. Good thing was he knew how to use his players. 3rd game was a blowout win against a kid who did nothing but to shoot predictable 3s. 4th was an 11 point win. Game 5 was a loss against a guy with KD, MJ, CP3, and Dwight. Dude didn't know what he was doing with his team He had a 3 point lead in the second when I had to leave to pick up my brother.
I've got Jeremy Lin. I've been wanting to sell him since I don't use him at all, but the game won't let me. Same for Malcolm Lee, who hasn't been played since.. Shit, I don't know. The 6th seed.
FFFUUU I choked again Up 3 with a minute left, lost by 2. Probably would have tied or won the game if I didn't go for a risky play by throwing the inbounds pass inside since Bobby Jackson was open. Freakin McGee stole the ball with his long arms.
My line-up currently is:
C - Kris Humphries
PF- LeBron James
SF- Tony Allen
SG- Dwyane Wade
PG- Jeremy Lin
Bench:
Steve Novak
Jodie Meeks
Anthony Morrow
Joel Pryzbilla
Malcolm Lee
Enes Kanter
Patrick Mills
I saved VC to get all the players I have. I got Amare Stoudemire at first but after playing 3 games and not using him much, I sold him for Pau Gasol. I didn't like playing with Gasol, so I sold him and got DWade.
Recently, I played some guy who had a completely superstar roster. He was blowing me out by 20 PTs until about the 3rd quarter where I went HAM with DWade. In the 4th, I got the lead, and with 23 seconds left and me ONLY UP BY 3 PTS, the guy quit. I guess he lacks the clutch gene.
I'm sure I forgot some other players but whatever.
I'm 1-2 in the 7th seed. I lost the first two games. All 3 games are vs All-Star teams. Forgot what the first team looked like but 2nd team had Tim Hardaway, Shaq, Divac, and Hersey Hawkins. The one team that I beat had Magic, Dell Curry, Anthony Davis, and Larry Nance. Dude took the same amount of 3s with Magic and Curry He didn't know what he was doing. Beat him by 10.
