2K11 Assosication: A Story

[Chicagolove]

Just a few notes...


* Rakeem Bolton will be introduced in mid 2K11-December, where I will create a fake DIME magazine article
* I got this idea after seeing someone post on another forum "We will never again see players who dominate from the get-go. In fact, we aren't going to see players in Jordan's stratosphere for a long, long time". I figured I would create 2 "Messiahs" that would change the face of modern-day ball if the actually existed.
* I am a believer of everything is sweeter if you're in your hometown. Rakeem Bolton's hometown is T-Dot, but the Raptors always get the 1st pick because they are never good the first year of association.
* In Canada, I have no idea how college ball goes. So, in the association mode, I just put for College/From as "Canada" for Rakeem.

Thanks to his extremely large and muscular build, Seventeen magazine featured him on the front cover before the season began. In the featured article, Dom discussed his favorite type of woman, and was asked who his celebrity crush was, to whom he answered Miley Cyrus.



Miley, fresh off a break-up, was excited to hear this, and quickly asked her agent to arrange an introductory date with Dom.
Things got off well, and as of October 28th, Miley and Dom are officially dating.

ESPN: Crawford posts first career triple-double as Mavericks blow out Denver
--Henry Abbott

The Dallas Mavericks are still 5-0 to start the season, and the phenomenal play of their rookie sensation Dominic Crawford has a lot to do with it.

Crawford posted 44/15/10 in a blow-out vs. the Denver Nuggets, 112-73. "He's something special," Head Coach Rick Carlisle said. "How he went undrafted will be one of the league's greatest mysteries."

He is averaging 34.7/13.4/8.3 in 5 games into the season.

Other notable performances from the game were: Dirk Nowitzki, 24 points & 9 rebounds, Shawn Marion, 15 points and 9 rebounds.

Dom is about to go to sleep early so he can practice early in the morning for the game vs. Philadelphia. As he sets the bed for him and Miley, the phone rings.

*phone: ring, ring(Miley answers)*
Miley: Hello?... Yeah! Dom, it's for you.
Dom: Hello?
Nike agent: Hello, this is an agent for Nike. I'm calling you right now because Nike is interested in throwing you a major endorsement deal. We just need you to go over it and accept it.
Dom: *nodding and smiling* Alright, what's on the table?
Nike agent: Nike wants to give you a 6 year, $75 million contract. Would you be interested?
Dom: What kind of question is this?! Of course!
Nike agent: Excellent! Whenever you are available, contact this number and we'll set up an appointment for the contract signing.
Dom: Wow, thanks! Goodbye. *hangs up*

Miley: Who was that? What's going on(all the while smiling)?
Dom: Well... All I'm gonna say is, we'll be making some major bank come the end of the year.

The two share a long kiss, and then Dom heads off to bed, excited for the deal and for the game vs. Philadelphia.

ESPN.com: Bulls hand Mavericks their first loss of the season
Josh Wilbon


The Chicago Bulls became the first team to defeat the Mavericks this season, shooting a whopping 62% for the game, while Dallas only show 43%.

Amazingly, The Mavericks lost by only 8. This was largely thanks to Dominic Crawford's 31 points(51%) and 14 rebounds, and Dirk being 60% from the 3-point line.

The resilient Bulls were trailing for much of the game when Derrick Rose and Luol Deng went on a scoring spree- ending the game with a 19-5 run.

Derrick Rose finished with 34 points(45%) and 8 assists, while Deng scored 23 and grabbed eight rebounds.

The Mavericks travel to Atlanta tomorrow where they will face the Hawks, while the Bulls travel to Los Angeles to prepare for their match vs. the Lakers on the 23rd.

Mavericks record: 17-2
Dominic Crawford's stats: 32.1/11.9/8.1 on 58% shooting

By this point, the Mavericks have replaced the Heat as the favorites to win the championship, but there are still many skeptics. Dominic Crawford has already been featured in many commercials and has three endorsements: Nike, Powerade, and 5 Gum.
At this point in time, he has just over a million "likes" on facebook, and 800,000 followers on twitter(most likely due to him dating Miley Cyrus). He has won rookie of the month and player of the month for November, and is by far the leading All-Star candidate for starting Center in the West.


Dominic returns to the team hotel in Salt Lake City after dominating the Jazz, where he picks up a copy of Sports Illustrated, and sees:



He was intrigued. He had heard about Rakeem Bolton before the season began; when he was getting dubbed as "A player that can do what LeBron does, only much better". Dom wasn't sure if he believed the hype, but he read Rakeem's article.


In the article, it was mentioned that Dominic Crawford was a player that the 18-year old Rakeem Bolton looked up to and respected, and it was also mentioned that a few days ago he had signed a massive endorsement contract with Jordan; for 95 million dollars, which was more than what LeBron got before he began his career and what Dom's current endorsement contract was. It was mentioned that he was a great defender, an outstanding and flashy dunker(much like Dom himself), a phenomenal shooter, had amazing vision and passing skills, incredibly smart, and incredibly fast.

When asked what teams he would most want to get drafted to, he said to his hometown Toronto Raptors, or to the New York Knicks. He said he wanted to make both of those teams "elite title contenders for years".
When asked what he would spend his $95 million on, He said nothing until he gets drafted, as of now he will let it grow, but he said a $25 million home and a black Maybach 62 convertible.



Dom was interested and excited about Rakeem Bolton; and he quickly asked his team mates to read the article. A few seconds later, Dom tweeted and facebooked He couldn't wait until Rakeem Bolton gets drafted, and he's a fan.
Rakeem saw this and was honored by this compliment.
