Whats More important, Realism or Fun Factor?

When it comes to sim basketball whats more important Realism or Fun factor? I have played a few people lately that have said either the way I have my game set up is not fun or they cant spin dunk or (Insert cheese play here) and quit when its 6-2 and 95 seconds into the game. I believe that every game wont be 50 % and you go 8-14 from 3 point land, there are gonna be games where you shoot 29-33 % in first quarter but end up at 41% at the end or players get tired when you have the turbo button glued down..I want fun factor myself but not at the expense of making shots you shouldnt make. Thoughts?????

Simulating what I see on a real NBA court is fun imo, so it's realism for me.

Re: Whats More important, Realism or Fun Factor?

this is supossed to be a bball SIMULATION so i want it as realistic as possible. Fun comes from all your plays and statgies working and you getting win. OP you playing scrubs. hit me on on XBL if you can. I only play with realistic slides and people quit after 1st quarter because i turn down dunks in traffic to 10 and lower all close shot sliders so they wont make hopstep shots. Cheesers will cry if their weak strategies arent working. IF it wasnt for hopstep and excessive powerdunking heat players not many people would even play 2k11. WOuld be a dream for me

i Don't want shaq making three's or free throw line dunks from Steve nash. But 2k is fun if you play realistic style of play. I just don't like that 2k11 forced you to run plays all the time, because you end up running all the plays for your best player or second best player.
