Looks so nice.

I always run plays, I also try out every one of them but the players never walk that fluently or complete the plays (not setting a screen to abort it).

Great stuff Czar!

Probably one of the more fun things for me to do in this game is just to hop into plays mode with a team's playbook and just dig through it. Explore all the options, experiment with the timing of passes, sometimes running the same play 30-40 times until I'm comfortable with all the options and running it smoothly (timing of your passes are HUGE for this, like you mentioned).

Can't wait for the next video!

Didn't know about the hidden branch, although I know that because of the formation, the spacing there is good for Griffin to post up. You could also just ignore the play diagram after the 1st entry pass, and use it to create a post up opportunity for your guard. With Deron Williams and Joe Johnson, this is a great play for the Nets. You can call it by just pressing Y/Triangle when calling a play for Gerald Wallace. You should always make sure you get into the post position with your big when receiving the pass so as to protect the ball. I would also add that this is a good play to exploit exclusively on ball defenders online, as the little lag in the switching might cause them to trail the PG after the first pass, which can lead to an easy bucket. Lazy defenders will often sag off the big man to protect the cut to the rim by the wing player, which means you can either just shoot the J with your big, or if there's enough space, drive in for a dunk.

Overall, I prefer the Horns set to the 1-4 set used by the Jazz. It's quicker to develop, as players aren't taking 3 seconds to back screen their center's man, you can always run a double high pick and roll, and you've got more space to work with, because the perimeter isn't so crowded.

Thanks Czar!

(PS: Do you know if 2K have any of those Horns plays that the Lakers (vs the Bulls) and the Knicks (vs the Nets) were running on MLK day? For the Lakers, Kobe would be in one of the elbow positions, and then he would get a pick from the big man in the other elbow area to free him up for a mid range shot. They did this with Gasol as well, although I think it was to oop it to Howard. The Knicks ran this for Melo as well to use in the same situation as Kobe)

If I'm following, horns roll should give you something resembling that type of action.

Not sure what playbook it's in. Might be the Bulls.
