lol, yer. Actually there are now two openings.
Miami who has played 2 games (1-1) and has Lebron.
San Antonio who is yet to play a game. I asked Tee what's up but he hasnt been online for over 10 days now to reply.
Yer, i figured Miami would be more likey...not just Lebron, he's got a high block, high rebound C like Dalembert (Camby) and a slasher that can get to the rim in Maggette. Bit perplexing what to do about the point guard though?

Although if he is after a division title the Southwest looks like it is a more likely scenario

We seem to be on same time a fair bit, and I message you since you're playing something different (usually) but don't get a reply, then I end up offline. Then it seems you get my messages long after!
You know the way I like to assemble teams too well Michael! Give me a slasher and a good shot-blocker and I'll play with any team
Send me an invite for Miami man, I'll definitely be in. I like the look of the roster better than SA, and in the Southwest Giddles is there and I am yet to beat him.
What's the deal with mkd_kid and why is he so good??
Was bloody happy with that though since the game before that he beat zel by 50!
yeh i did play pretty lame that game but mkd's steals killed me that game man, his D is pretty strong as well i reckon...

Pretty sure i beat mkd_kid quite comfortably. I think Carmelo Anthony was on fire in that game though.
Haven't checked yet but did you send me an invite Michael??
Yer, sent an invite and pm on the PS3
How bad was that lag jimbo!?! hahah played a game just before that with no dramas at all! Was feeling ti too! Will be on again later for some games!
Played my first game against Mollison and the Knicks and lost 76-65. From the looks of the guys he's beaten (Nenjabin & Giddles) I assume he's not a bad player.
I actually jumped out to a quick lead winning the first quarter 21-17, but once the game slowed down - being my first online game I didn't know any of my players jump-shot releases and I kept clanking it off the rim.
LeBron in particular missed about 10 jumpers although he top scored for me with 25 points he only shot 12/27 for the game. He also had 4 assists and 3 steals. Beno Udrih was the only one whose jumper I could get going and he scored 19 points including 5/11 from trey to go with 4 boards and 5 assists.
I scored 28/65 in the paint minus the fastbreak points, while he scored 42/76.
I quite like my team and I'm finding it's a lot easier to shoot jumpers in 2K11 than in 2K10. Once I get some practice mode with my guys jump-shots I reckon I'll be able to compete with everyone in the league.
Yeah I think I played mollison pretty early in OCT S2 so don't actually remember ...but I played him the other day again in the Aus NZ league and we had a thriller! There was a tiny bit more lag than usual which had me struggling with my shot early and I was down for most of the game. Clawed my way back into it and even took the lead in the last, but when it was crunch time he got a sweet put back slam to go up 52-50 with 24 seconds left in the game (very low scoring, defensive slog). I came down wondering how the hell I was going to garantee some points and with a couple of quick passes accross the perimeter I suddenly found Mayo wide open (for only maybe the 2nd time in the game if I was lucky! He was 3/7 from the field at the time, 0/2 3Pt). Thought, there's my shot, so took it and hit it. Ended up being a 3 so was up 53-52 with ~14 seconds left. He took it down and posted Yao up (whom had 20/17 for the game...had been unstoppable). Took the fadeaway for the win and missed! Was a classic
Yeah Jumpers are good in 2k11, but definitely not easier than 2k10. 2k10 defense didn't seem to bother shots much, but if you can put any pressure on a shot in 2k11 it has a big effect. 2k10 you could just run down and jack up (as everyone whom played me knew )
Look forward to getting a game in tonight!
Yeah maybe I didn't shoot enough jumper in 2K10. Something about it in 2K11, maybe the shot-stick response or something just feels a lot more natural to me.
Can't wait to get some practice in. LeBron is essentially unstoppable once he gets a lane, so if I can get his jump-shot down he's going to be really good. Mollison was already double-teaming Bron a lot last night, leaving Udrih wide open for 3's and Hamilton too on one occasion.
He probably though you were the previous owner of Bron /the Heat...that guy simply gave it to Bron and got out of the way! I think 1 game against Ranga Bron took 52 of the teams 80 FGs...but only connected on 16 of them cause Ranga too was zoning and doubling Bron. I suspect that's why he doubled Bron early against you.
I'm up for some practice most nights Jimbo I have alot more gaming time now-a-days into the night since Cindy now goes to sleep early.
