It is always disappointing when washed up vets are getting game time over promising rookies. I watched Isiah Thomas in a lost season do everything he could to not play Wilson Chandler.Rashidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15415749685735306421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-80118635048544321992008-10-30T15:11:00.000-04:002008-10-30T15:11:00.000-04:00So it looks like Rashidi is about as reliable as T...So it looks like Rashidi is about as reliable as The 2k Insider, lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-79438073181625262342008-10-30T14:59:00.000-04:002008-10-30T14:59:00.000-04:00Good assessment Brad.

Lo Wright isnt REALLY ahead of the kid, they are just going to kind of fast track him so that he catches up to speed quicker on defensive rotations. <BR/><BR/>And to the anonymous poster... nobody uses Cavs.com.

Hehe was laffing. I hate LAL. Bynum may be overhyped a bit. It's a long time til a player gets back to his game after a big injury. But for the moment he might be a bit overrated in the game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-75474064830004657532008-10-30T00:47:00.000-04:002008-10-30T00:47:00.000-04:00Rashidi, Looking forward to your 2.0 rosters.

Now Wright is ahead of him... for now. I expect Hickson to be contributing for at least 10 minutes a night within the next week or two. He's too talented, and too explosive to not play. Plus, he's the Cavs' best post scorer.<BR/><BR/>Tyrus Thomas looked solid from midrange, which isn't really a big surprise, someone who's only 6'8" should be able to shoot a little.<BR/><BR/>Bynum looked more like an above average center that we all know he is than a superstar that the Lakers believe he can become. I'm not saying he can't become a stud, but last night showed that he hasn't taken that leap yet.<BR/><BR/>Although I'm a Cavs fan, I was really sad to see Oden go down... I hope injuries don't derail his career. When healthy, he's easily a top 10 center in the league, even with only playing one quarter of basketball so far.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07722819272771618128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-89351974064208379132008-10-29T18:21:00.000-04:002008-10-29T18:21:00.000-04:00Tyrus was hitting mid-range last year too, so that...Tyrus was hitting mid-range last year too, so that should only confirm his shooting ability.<BR/><BR/>I make my own tendencies and use default sliders.<BR/><BR/>Bynum is going to have games like that when Kobe and Gasol are doing their thing. I thought he played a great defensive game and the 5 fouls don't worry me since few of them led to FTA, and his aggression at that end is what helped the Lakers build their lead.<BR/><BR/>2.0 will likely hit after the games are completed just so I can get each team's starting lineup and rotations set in stone.<BR/><BR/>There's also an Obamamercial and a World Series mini-game tonight.

JJ had a clean slate before the celtics game but when he missed the wiz game, lorenzen wright overtook him in the rotation by being impessive so JJ cant be that much better meaning total overhype as of yetAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-15225726702530909572008-10-29T17:23:00.000-04:002008-10-29T17:23:00.000-04:00where's version 2.0?

So they will be more demanding on him early in the season. He was being disciplined in the last preseason game, but Coach Brown stated that he paid his dues and has a fresh slate for the season.<BR/><BR/>The one surprise from yesterdays game was how out of sync Andrew Bynum looked in the first game. Only 8pts 4rbs and 5pfs in almost 30mins of action mostly against Pryzbilla and Channing Frye.<BR/><BR/>We'll see if he bounces back against the Clips tonight, but that was a shaky debut.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your work and I love your rostersJoJo Dancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06602007925078122804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-46000364896025709692008-10-29T13:05:00.000-04:002008-10-29T13:05:00.000-04:00Who slider do you use?Benicio,Blu Lightening,Nogos...Who slider do you use?Benicio,Blu Lightening,Nogoster,etc. <BR/><BR/>Do you also change player tendencies when editing? <BR/><BR/>I love your what you're doing bruh so me complaining about your work feels weird but is there anyway you can give every player real shoes?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-16845305965935086032008-10-29T08:56:00.000-04:002008-10-29T08:56:00.000-04:00I saw the Bucks Bulls match last night.
