I'm suppose to play a game against Miami, and I see LeBron in a Portland jersey. WT?

You play for the Cavs and got suspended for the Miami game right? Thats why.

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Someone help pls..I loaded up my mycareer and I am somehow in practice and after they inbound the ball my game freezes. I don't even remember having to do a practice session after my game before I turned it off. Don't wanna delete this save but looks like I have to.

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

OH. MY. GOD. I want to take this game outside and take a few shots at it with my .50 Desert Eagle right now.

Two straight games vs Houston (my guy's with the Nuggets). No Harden. I don't know if he's injured or was traded. Probably traded cuz they've got Jarret Jack. Jack is lighting me up. Brooks is lighting me up. Some dude named Garcia and some scrub off the bench are lighting me up. They shoot like 60% from 3 in both games. Like 80% from the floor. They are literally TRYING to shoot 3's, and they're making almost all of them.

Meanwhile my team doesn't seem to realize they have guys they should guard. They play olé defense the entire game, not that it matters when they actually do D up because Houston is hitting everything contested or not. Meanwhile Jack is D'ing me up like he's Scottie freaking Pippen. My ball handling is in the upper 80's, as is my ball security. I'm getting stripped. I'm getting blocked (by freaking Jack, who I have 2 inches on), my passes are getting picked off left and right, and half the time they don't go to who I want to go to anyway. And my teammates favorite thing is to throw passes directly to the defender. I can't hit the broad side of a barn even when I manage to get a wide open spot up shot. When I take ONE dribble towards the paint, their bigs immediately go stand under the basket. Why don't my guys do that to them? They're driving at will.

It's obviously scripted, because I get the "bring us back" goal in the 2nd quarter when we get down by 20. Sure, great, whatever, but Houston never cools off. Ever. My teammates won't play defense anyway. There's literally ZERO chance of me bringing the team back because they can't shoot, I can't shoot, and Houston's hitting at a 70% clip. Back to back games against Houston. Blown out by 20+ points each game. This scripted crap is sucking the fun out of this game. I'm playing on SS/Simulation, not the Default cheese garbage. And to add insult to injury, the servers disconnect while I'm upgrading my player and kick me to the game menu and try to get me to create an offline MyPlayer. AAAAAAHHHHHHHH! Ok. Rant over. Just needed to vent. Thanks for your time.

ya im playing the heat in the playoffs and they apparently traded chalmers and birdman for scola and nate robinson. its funny because nobody is doing **** on the team except scola and nate. last game nate was 8-9 (2pt) 5-5(3pt) and the shot he missed i had to run over and play defense on him which scola grabbed the rebound and scored on. he had 20pts 10rbs. im dealing with it .

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

I know this isn't the right place to put it but for whatever reason I cannot create a thread (probably not enough posts)....

So I was just wondering, how in the world do I get hop steps and eurosteps to work? It works perfectly fine with moving the right stick to the left or right (for hopstep) in freestyle practice, but many times in games it's either a hopstep or just a crossover....is there something else I'm supposed to press? Is there no way to do a hop step regularly?

Also, I even kind of have difficulty doing eurostep in freestyle practice, many times it just doesn't not do it even though I pull back to the left or right side. Is there some kind of other button to press or something...?

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

anyone know if Strength helps you with contact layups/dunks?

No, just with backing down in the post unfortunately.

so there is no way to use custom rosters in my career?

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

I have a question, I'm 60 games into my first season on my Center but the problem is that he is 7 '2'. On HoF simulation 12 minute quarters im putting up 24 ppg 54% from the field 5 assist and 6 rebounds (Have gotten over double digit 10 games in a row) but it gets frustrating having the slugish rebounding animation. I don't know if I start over and lose all of my progress or not. Do you guys think it'd be worth it?

If I do start over heres what I was planning on doing:

PF 6 '11' faceup shooter - Dirkish

PG 6 '4' all around - More like a Rubio

SG 6 '6' Athletic - Tyreke Evans

SF 6 '8' Athletic - Kinda like Iggy I guess

or a C 6 '11' Athletic - Dwight Howard like

I want to do a playstyle that is unique to what most people do. Any comments on which playstyle would be the most fun would be greatly aprecciated!

i would do the Center one because alot of teams need Centers and getting Blocks and Rebounds and Dunking on ppl is real fun and as the Center u control the paint u dont have to worry about no weak inside defense. Perimeter defense will just be the problem

i currently have that exact type of Center drafted 6th ovr to the Pelicans 21ppg
10rpg
3.6bpg

as a sixth man

plus the Trailblazers need a Center at 10th pick

Only thing on the Pelicans they give u and Ryan Anderson more minutes i guess because Eyebrows starts at C even though he is listed as a PF hopefully this changes once i become a starter

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Does this sig let you change points of emphasis, as well as defensive and offensive strategies?

In real life point of emphasis is a coaches decision....so no you wont be able to change that. With calling plays have you all checked settings/options and made sure it is set to manual? I have a SG that plays for the Suns and whenever they put me in to run PG for maybe like 2 to 3 mins I can call all plays offense and defense. to add I do not have on the court coach.

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Currently playing the Wizards in the first round and having a tough time defending Wall. The guy just doesn't miss it seems.

Does anyone know if the GM will ask you what players you recommend trying to trade for like in current gen? I'd really like to get some players that will actually shoot the ball on the Bulls instead of pump faking all the time.

Yeah. I figured it out later. Thank you.

I know why my team so bad.. The rotation is just so poor. Andy is getting 7 minutes a game, and Tristan get zero. I really hope something happens soon.

Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Quick question, I know it's been asked but can't find an answer.. How the hell do you dunk on a regular basis instead of a layup? My kid has 92 dunk and have picked up about 5 signature dunk animations but can't throw down on anyone ever. Only time I dunk is on a break and then it's usually just a weak 2 hander. Is the problem my layup skill is at about 88? Also will posterizer or highlight reel even help, just seems i've wasted enough VC already?
