Did we ever officially sign Garrett Temple as multiple press outlets said we intended to?

What your stat prediction for Barons first game with Cleveland.

I'm going with 12 pts, 6 assists, 4 turnovers, 2 double quarter pounders, a cheeseburger, large fries and 4 apple pies.

What the hell is wrong with Brook Lopez and Andrea Bargnani? Alright they just proved me wrong by grabbing 12 and 14 boards last night (actually lost a bet on this one), however the night before Andrea had 3 in 39 minutes, Brook 2 in 40 minutes. At least Bargnani has some excuses - he's European, his name is Andrea and he's just a pussy. How can Brook Lopez, a pretty athletic 7-footer, average 5 boards per game??? I mean if he plays 40 minutes, the ball should just fall in his lap 5 times per game after free throws and ****. And the fact that Kris Humphries grabbed every rebound out there isn't an excuse.

Anyone else get confused on how to get good players through free agency in NBA 2K11 in Association mode like I do? I always don't have enough money. How do I get more salary or money? I use Bobcats of course.

Well you'll need to lose a lot of salary, don't resign most expiring contracts, and trade Diop with Crash to SAC for their first round pick. It's a good trade since the picks are always unprotected and it will be a top 1-7 pick almost for sure. You lose about 15 million which should nearly be enough.

Then it should be even easier. Keep Tyrus, Keep DJ. Hendo is worthless in game, so go to manage roster and edit his potential up to 82 (I think that's fair), and keep him. You don't resign Pryz, and all the other expirings. If you have a lot of rookie picks to give contracts too, maybe trade them for future picks if you want to get it done this year. Can save a few million that way too.

Another thing: They don't have draft picks allocated as they are in the real world. So it'll be even harder to rebuild our team in 2k now.

Just activate trade override and get your picks from portland and the hornets by trading scrub FA that you can sign for $400k.

i think he was just signed. Pretty nice signing. Nothing at all to lose. Spurs saw something good in him and they probably have the best scouts out there.

The problem then becomes turning trade override off. Is that possible?

I'm not sure but it won't matter as long as you have self control. :D I turned it on at the start of the association just to get those picks.

I checked and you can indeed turn it off. I used RGM's future pick tracker and updated all the 1st round picks that have been traded. I didn't **** with most of the 2nd rounders because, frankly, who cares?

Thanks guys. Very helpful. I don't like cheating, but this seems necessary.
