Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Here's one for ya.. I'm going off on the Rockets.. ME.. not the team.. 19 points 8 of 10 shooting in the first half with 4 minutes left.. the REST of the team on the other hand is shooting 7 of 24 while the Rockets of course are shooting 65% Thaddeus Young is 1 of 7, Pekovic 1 of 6, Wiggins 0 for 4

Harden has 15 so far.. he's 6 of 11 shooting... if I manage to get is his face he misses some.. but otherwise he just makes everything by taking a step in any direction to get away from me. Superman is 6 of 6 (Howard of course)

Twice now to start the third quarter Harden and Howard switch ..and I'm guarded by Howard.. instead of blowing by him.. he fouls me so I can't get the easy drive by him. Rockets are now shooting 70% in the third.

Its crazy that no one in this entire thread has even mentioned the Heat except for me. How times change lol. I would highly recommened the Heat for anyone looking for a good team in free agency. I love this team. Despite being older and slower, D Wade is still a beast, Bosh is a p/r monster who is versatile enough to fade and create shots off screens or roll to the basket with his quickness. Deng is a good defender and the team has a lot of nice shooters. Being a PG for the Heat is great because they have a good supporting cast and yet you can clearly take over the starring role left by Lebron.

As a PG, I considered them, but I hate the Heat so decided against it.

How do I go about gaining fans on social media the quickest way?

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Love the directive "get back on defense, don't crash the offensive boards".. the team misses so many shots I have to crash if I even want to TRY and keep it close

I thought about joining them in my second year. They made an offer. But honestly I couldn't do it, just doesn't seem realistic Doc Rivers joining Miami.

Is finisher a badge or something? Because I can't seem to finish the simplest of layups and I'm level 13 inside scoring or whatever. It's quite frustrating to miss layups at the rate I do.

there is a finisher badge I've got the golden version.... it's call transition finisher

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

You're scoring WAY too much to be a young Rodman.. or even an OLD Rodman .. your boards are up there though

Thanks. I was averaging 9 points a game prior to DeRozan injury. Since then, I've taken over some of his scoring responsibilities. But you are right. lol

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Lost to the Rockets 106-96. my SG is finally making shots..

Scored 35 on 15 of 23 shooting.. and the team is crap.. they shot 36% without my 65% shooting.. Pekovic 7 of 20, Young 3 of 15, Wiggins 4 of 13.. wouldn't expect to beat Houston with this team anyway buy getting sick of seeing Pekovic on the floor missing more shots than my SG ever did underneath before I started finally MAKING them the last 2 games. OF course Houston stayed at 60% We had 18 offensive rebounds.. and scored on 7 of those chances..

I managed to shut Harden down the second half.. he finished with 25 but instead picked up 7 assists against my team's lack of defense down low.. Pek doesn't play D on this Career team. I want Dieng.. he was 5/5 the last game I played when he got IN the game

Finally had a 40 minute 0 turnover game.. I never did accomplish that in 2k15.. the game usually found a way to give me ONE .. either dribbling off my own leg or a pass into the stands.

Freaking out Agent scene about team interest and he starts talking about injuries.... funny stuff really

Got Shawn Kemp as a fan.. oh boy.. Is he going to bring me to Burger King and fatten me up like his late career?

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

I'm still missing point blank layups as well as my teammates

[KDMaserati]

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Idk what's more frustrating the missing of wide open jumpers and especially layups by your players or the cheese of the cpu offense hitting 90 percent of their shots regardless of D and when they happen to miss getting a cheese board and put back

[KDMaserati]

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

no calls for u but the cpu getting calls for even being on the floor.

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Didn't pay a lot of attention to this earlier, but noticing now.. during timeouts when they start talking about stats and who's leading the league in different categories.. 2K forgot to put the graphics in this year.. you'd think they'd be in because they were in 2k14.

The missing overlays are a known issue set to be corrected. Hopefully in the upcoming patch but idk for sure.

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

I know for me on D when I play perfect D and I'm. cutting off the ball. handler and he's constantly dribbling the ball thru my body and swipes despite that defying physics... I have golden pick pocket, interceptor, and lockdown defender... he just dribbles like I'm. not even there even when I swipe my hand goes thru the ball, on his dribble moves he literally dribbles thru my body ball rarely get jarred loose and on the off chance it does psychic awareness kicks in and immediately every cpu player knows exactly where the ball is and all tap into the speed force spectrum of Flash and beat me to the ball despite the ball being 2 feet away from me or my teammates. jokim Noah came from the paint to beat Lance Stephenson and I to a ball I knocked loose at damn near half court while Lance was watching at the top of the key and I was at half court. jokim Noah was battling for position with Al Jefferson in the paint with his back turned... ball comes loose he immediately changes direction cancels all contact animations with Al even though Al was still stuck in animations and sprints to the ball like Usain bolt. Lance took like two steps toward the ball and I took one and bent over to pick it up. by the time I bent over jokim Noah had the ball in his hands.

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Decided to skim social media . March 29, 2015:

LeBron done for the rest of the season torn achilles.. that opens it up for Durant to win MVP

Ben McLemore 'got a little dinged up' with a severe ankle sprain.. umm SEVERE is .. NOT .. "a little dinged up"

Pau Gasol: "aggravated my torn foot ligament"... yeah OK.. you wouldn't be PLAYING with a torn foot ligament in the first place.

Manu Ginobli is leaving the Spurs in this career.

Vince Carter aggravates torn MCL.. another injury were you wouldn't actually be playing again that season.
