Got No Game

In honor of the Mavericks' pending appearance in the NBA Finals, I picked up a copy of NBA Live 06 (PC) this weekend, hoping to enjoy a little virtual hoops action over the next few weeks.

Thus far, the experience of playing this title has been thorougly humiliating, even at the easiest level. I can score a few points on offense, but...

I got no defense. Natta. Nil. Zilch.

The worst teams in the league dribble circles around me, driving straight down the lane and humiliating me with circus-style slam dunks while all five of my players stand around watching like dorks. I have literally growled with frustration as that experience repeated itself again...and again...and again.

Anyone have any advice? Perhaps I should just burn the game before I develop a serious anger management problem.

How about getting your eldest child or maybe his youth minister to come and minister to your anger problem by helping you master the game of virtual basketball.

You're on, Michael! We'll go rent the XBox version so that we won't have to crowd around my PC to play.

...and don't be bringing a WEAK GAME to my house, either - 'cause I'm going to be practicing between now and then. [G]

After reviewing the last comment, I realize: I'm not even good at trash talk.
