    It's that time again boys and girls....

    NBA 2K13 has FINALLY come out, and that means Clutchfans will be having another Online Association!

    League details will be posted shortly once we figure out what works best for everybody, but I'd assume that it will be as follows:

    - Flex scheduling (new feature...allows any games on the schedule to be played any time. GREAT stuff)
    - 29 games
    - Fantasy Draft (Draft date TBA)
    - Pro or All Star difficulty....whichever one the majority wants.
    - Playoff series will be best of 3 each. We tried best of 7 last year and it was just too much. Maybe best of 5 for the championship though.

    The official rules and settings will be posted once the league is created, but I'm thinking we should give it about a week or 2 for everybody to get adjusted to the new controls and the new gameplay so everybody is at their best for the league!

    Please feel free to post any suggestions that would be applicable, and please feel free to post your Xbox Live Gamertag on here if you'd like to join. This allows people to add you to your friends list and see who's online and available to play.

    We'd REALLY like to fill out the league with 30 user controlled teams. The less computer controlled teams the better, because it really helps the Fantasy Draft become much more entertaining and it allows the league to simply become more enjoyable. We'll most likely allow enough time to get 30 people (if possible), but we'll see what we can get. Anything above 20 people is probably fine, but once again, 30 is ideal.

    Once again feel free to post any other suggestions and comments, and good luck to you all!

    Haha that's not how it goes down. You gotta join the league when it gets set up and then you pick from the available teams. Join first and you'll have first pick!

    They are hated by God in Association mode. Nothing to work with, nothing to build around.

    Brooklyn... Gotta be epic with Jay involved.

    On another note, do they have a blimp view for every city? I'm a sucker for presentation, but figured they may only do it for teams where their stadium name is the same name as in real life (a la Rockets Arena in 2k). I only had time to play 1 game so far, and it was in Chicago

    Never understood why the sim quarter length is changed. Why make the games end 80-78?

    Dude you can't "call" what team you are. You join, and you select from the available teams. There's no "calling". Never has been, never will.
