NBA Comparison: Manu Ginobili/Brandon Roy
Strengths: Very smooth and crafty wing player Used his sophomore season to add new dimensions to his game, and he proved to be a steady and consistent scoring threat One of the most mature and NBA ready players of his class He has great feel and understanding of the game, knows when he has to be a facilitator and when he has to take over the scoring load As much as he brings in terms of scoring, his vision and playmaking ability may be his most impressive attributes He makes great reads and is extremely unselfish Has a developed body that is prepared to handle the rigors he will face in the league In ISO situations he has a variety of deceptive and shifty moves that allow him to get by defenders Out of the triple threat he is difficult to defend because his jab step is long and he sells his shot fake extremely well Off the bounce he incorporates a nice crossover as well as in&out and behind the back dribbles to get into the lane His jumper has shown great improvements, he has added range as well as consistency from the outside His strength is a great asset because he is not afraid to use his body, either on drives or when playing with his back to the basket Has good balance and body control when finishing around the basket He has become a difficult matchup, because he looks to take advantage of mismatches, and enjoys playing with his back to the basket Has a great feel for the ball, on the glass and in the passing lanes
Weaknesses: Ended the season with two very poor performances in the NCAA Tournament, which has unfairly taken some luster off of a great season (he faced zone defenses on both occasions and it forced him to play out of his comfort zone) Does not posses the great size that many have at his position His leaping ability and quickness are only marginal, which forces him into tough and contested drives and makes it hard for him to get by people Even though he has worked on his drives going right, he is still not nearly as comfortable and effective as he needs to be Defenders have a much easier time cutting of his driving lanes when he does go right His midrange game will need to become more polished, his ability to make shots off the dribble before the helpside D rotates will be key He has become turnover prone at 3.4 per game, but this is mostly a result of being asked to do too much

11 min quarters
Hall of Fame difficulty
Here it is guys, sorry for the delay but here is a video starting with the last min of gameplay and I showed you the box scores and team stats, so far, so good with my sliders being used…
***EDIT***
FOR ALL THAT I SENT THE SLIDERS TO, I changed the shooting a bit, for the User, I put “3pt” to “49″ and for CPU, I put “Mid Range” to “44″, I was finding that I made too many 3pts and they miss a lot of mid range…
***If anyone is interested in making the game even more realistic, I have some sliders that I’m taking from 2k9, but I must warn you that I play at a slow pace and I play 11 minute Hall of Fame, but there is none of the comback crap and the end scores are from 70s-low 100s, rarely in the 100s anyways and all stats are VERY realistic to the real NBA! Just send me a private message with your email.***

NBA Draft Night Highlight of AI
At 6 feet tall and 165 pounds (maybe), Allen Iverson was the smallest first-overall draft pick in the history of the National Basketball Association. Everyone wanted to know if he could survive in NBA’s land of big men. By the end of his debut season, he had set records and earned awards such as NBA Rookie of the Year. Allen proved that not only could he survive in the NBA, but that he could come out on top as well.
Although he has been criticized for his “bad boy” image, Allen has been working to overcome that without severing his ties to his past and who he is. Controversy? It follows Allen. But, no one can debate the contribution he has made to the NBA.

PHILADELPHIA (Ticker) — With a strong finish, the Philadelphia 76ers matched the best start in franchise history.
Allen Iverson and Theo Ratliff powered a third-quarter charge and the 76ers remained unbeaten by controlling the second half in a 107-98 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. At 8-0, the Sixers are the NBA’s lone undefeated team. They tied the start of the 1979-80 squad, which featured Julius
Erving, Andrew Toney, Darryl Dawkins and current assistant coach Maurice Cheeks and reached the NBA Finals.
“It should mean a lot to them. I’m proud of my team,” Sixers coach Larry Brown said. “I’m proud of the fact that we’ve had some injuries and we had a lot of guys step up and play well. We’ve played unselfishly, but it’s eight games and we have to keep that in mind.”
Philadelphia hosts Miami on Friday with a chance to break the club mark. The NBA record for best start is 15-0, shared by the 1949-50 Washington Capitols and the 1993-94 Houston Rockets.
“Everybody wants to be the first team that knocks us off,” said Iverson. “Everybody wants to be that team. It’s going to be tough. We have to really dig in and sneak some wins out of other teams’ houses. For right know, I’m just living for the moment and I just hope it continues. I’m glad I’m a part of it.”
Iverson scored 22 points, seven during an 18-0 surge that turned a five-point deficit into a 70-57 lead midway through the third period.
The Cavaliers missed eight straight shots during that stretch and Ratliff was a big reason. Saddled by foul trouble in the first half, the 6-10 center had three of his six blocks during the run. Ratliff also scored 15 points.
“He did a good job offensively but just his presence underneath caused them to miss some easy shots and get some 24-second violations,” Brown said. “But he’s always been that for us.
That’s why we need him out on the court. We can’t afford for him to get fouls and only play seven minutes in the first half. That’s one of the reasons why we had a problem defending in the
first half.”
“I was just doing the same old thing that I try to do every time I step out on the court — to be that intimidating factor as far as when guys try to get easy shots and easy layups,” Ratliff
said. “I let them know it’s not going to be that easy.
Philadelphia got a big offensive boost from George Lynch, who scored a season-high 23 points and kept his team in the game in the first half. The defensive-minded forward had not scored
more than 10 points in a game this season.
“I like him to do the dirty work,” Brown joked. “How many rebounds did he get? Just one defensive rebound so I have something to talk to him about. He did a lot of great things.”
“I knew he was going to say that,” Lynch said. “I had (Robert) `Tractor’ Traylor on me. He’s about 300 pounds to my 230 so he’s gonna win that battle the majority of the time. … The
team needed me to score some points the way we were going. I had the hot hand, some open looks and I was able to take advantage of them. I’ve had those looks all season, it’s just I
was making the shots tonight.”
Eric Snow contributed 13 and seven assists for Philadelphia, which was outshot and outrebounded but scored 29 points off 22 turnovers by Cleveland.
Former Sixer Clarence Weatherspoon scored 24 points, Robert Traylor added a career-high 17 and Zydrunas Ilgauskas 16 for the Cavaliers (6-2). The frontcourt trio thrived while Ratliff was
on the bench with foul trouble but got little help from the perimeter players.
“We let them dictate the play to us,” Weatherspoon said. “We never got into a rhythm. They came after us and we just didn’t match it. It’s hard to come back on a team that has so many
scorers and plays a good half-court defense.”
The Cavs have lost their last six meetings with the Sixers.
Cleveland came in an even bigger surprise than Philadelphia, winning six of its first seven games despite having no player averaging more than 14 points or nine rebounds per game. The
Cavs opened the third period with consecutive baskets for a 57-52 lead before the Sixers took control.
Iverson, who has yet to score 30 points in a game this season, made a jumper and layup around a 3-pointer by Lynch, giving Philadelphia the lead for good at 59-57 with 9:39 left.
After a block by Ratliff, Snow set up Ratliff for a dunk and hit a shot. Iverson snaked his way for a three-point play and Snow made two free throws for a 68-57 lead.
Ratliff blocked two more shots and Iverson found Lynch for a dunk that capped the outburst. Iverson scored nine points in the quarter, which ended with Philadelphia holding an 81-71 lead.
