help me with my 2k8 lineup [hawks]

[mattlanta]

I need help with making my NBA 2k8 gameplay more realistic with the Hawks.

For the franchise, what would you say our lineup would look like? Who would the starters be WITH Speedy and without injuries? Who would be the sixth man, the role players, and the bench warmers? How many minutes would each player get? I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Or if you just tell me what you think our lineup should be, and how many minutes players should be getting. I'd appreciate any response.

Starters: Speedy/JJ/Marvin/Smith/Horford
Now the bench is a bit more difficult.
I say the 6th man is Childress. (sf/sg)
7th: Anthony Johnson
8th: Tyronn Lue (pg/sg)
9th: Zaza

The rest really doesn't matter. If it was me I would have shelden over zaza there.

if you decline an option in 2k8 can you still resign them?

My line-up for NBA 2007 with a 2008 roster is:
C - Horford
PF - JSmith
SF - Marvin
SG - JJ
PG - AJ

Bench:
C - Shel
PF - Solo
SF - Chill
SG - West
PG - Law

Zaza and Lue

And for some reason, the Spurs buzzed me to trade Brent Barry for Speedy Claxton... Wow. Trade Accepted.

Wow I played the first two games of my Association and was forced to sim them to the end because of how hard it was for me. Maybe cause it's been more than a month since I've played, but damn I suck. Even at pro mode, I couldn't make any J's by JJ... and him having one of the hardest shots to master in the game isn't helping the cause!

dont need a new thread for every 2k8 question haha

Hey, guys. It's another one of my NBA 2k8 trade ideas again, and I'm wondering if you guys can help me out by thinking of a blockbuster trade if I want to get rid of these players, you can choose as many/as least as you can:

-Marvin Williams
-Josh Childress
-Anthony Johnson
-Speedy Claxton
-Tyronn Lue
-Salim Stoudemire/Shelden

Any ideas on how to improve this team? I didn't start the Association yet, but I'm just thinking of how I should trade these players away first because I don't like playing with them. Marvin never makes shots, Childress is too slow, AJ is too slow/no jump shot, Speedy and Tyronn are decent, but they seem like good trade pieces, and Salim/Shelden seem like good trade pieces as well.

Remember, this is NBA 2k8. I'm not talking about real life here. I'm just askin for a little advice from a more educated Hawks fan. Thanks.

sorry, can someone combine this with my old NBA 2k8 topic

Merged.

Looks like you get to make even more changes now that Mike's part of the team.
