    I wish badges made more sense.. I'm not supposed to go on cold streaks and I am supposed to play well on the road according to the non-upgradable badges I've gotten so far and it's not exactly better on the road.. not that a team plays better on the road anyway usually

      It's so hard to get Howard points. It is almost like he doesn't want score ever. I pass it to him and does a quick touch pass to anyone else on the floor.

      And then he does this on a fast break.

        I just got the Road dog badge, so I don't know how it is. But, it seems like the personality badges, don't have much affect to it.
        I just wish Volume Shooter didn't seem like so a cursed badge. I understand the part about ability to shoot out of a cold streak. But, you shouldn't have to shoot a lot just to get warm. OJ Mayo and Knight, would constantly be cold each game. It is the main decider on which team I wanted to go to. Most of the good players have it.
        I chose the Hornets. Walker has it, but in whole that team has better overall squad compared to Bucks. I shouldn't have to be a star each game. MKG left, so I don't have to worry about him not being a contributor

          LOL. If I saw that, I'd just put the controller down and walk away.

              That's just the thing though. Evan Turner is the only one on my team with Volume Shooter. But all my teammates go cold for stretches and refuse to give the ball to the only person who's consistent on the offensive end.

              And believe me, I'm doing everything I can to avoid earning the badge for myself. I've managed to stay away from it so far. It's just a shame that we can't take off badges we don't want. After 2k14, I have no interest in being a volume shooter but I feel like I'll eventually get that badge no matter what.

                With my PF, I don't take a lot Field Goals, I just take advantage of good opportunities. My goal is to shoot 15-20 shots a game, if I am shooting more than that, I am just taking a lot of bad shots. I don't even got my mid range developed, so most of my baskets come from off of drives, FTs, and 2nd chance points

                  I hear that it is 30+ shots. It seems like most of the plays are ran over and over and geared toward 1-3 people. On the bucks, they only ran 3-5 plays that was geared to Parker and Mayo

                      Had a quick question about My Career. I'm on my second player because my original psn won't connect to the 2k servers but while I was playing with that guy I made the starting lineup and got to choose my intro music and all of that.

                      Now I'm on a new psn and I got to starting lineup again but I think I simmed the game where I was starting so I never got the chance to choose the intro music. Finally when we had a scene for player intros I came out to the same theme music as everyone else, is there a way I can go back and change the intro music or I missed out on it since I missed that cutscene? My body has a "Arena Media" option under his "Player Upgrades" pull down menu, but I don't see that option for me. I'm thinking because I never assigned a song in the first place? Thanks guys!

                        We're still ahead of New Orleans with 2 minutes left in the first half.. NOW I get the whole defending my teammate stuff.. I backed off to see if I can actually get a win in the last 2 games of the rookie season.. plus I have 6 boards 6 assists and still haven't gotten my triple double in the rookie season and I want that

                          Im looking forward to the start of my 3rd season. The Hornets are a complete upgrade over the Bucks in every way. The problem with Knight having Volume Shooter, was that he wasn't aggressive. He probably took 8-13 shots a game. Kemba has it, but he is a more aggressive scorer. Lance seems like a more all around player and better defender than Mayo. If Mayo wasn't scoring, than he was a waste on the floor. Parker has potential, but not until he 5th or 6th season. Henderson should be a good option as scorer. Sanders was the best player on the team, but he was at best 10-14 points. Jefferson seem like he could be a good option. Like the Bucks, this team has a good front count. Hairston could a good option off the bench, but he is last in the rotation.
                          My goal is to almost repeat my last year stats. I was T-2nd in blocks and 2nd in Rebounds. My problem was that since I wasn't on a good team, I didn't get any recognition for award nominations or all-teams. Playing on this team, I don't expect to be a high scoring player. But, I want to average 20+, 12 rebs, and 2 blocks a game. If I do that, I should be All-Star again and be on a All-Nba team

                            So the coach just put me into the starting lineup and I played my first game as a starter. The next game he has me coming off the bench? Is this a glitch?

                              I guess a triple double is just a pipe dream for ME in this rookie year.. twice I finished with 9 assists and this time with 6 in the first half.. I only got 1 in the second half.. .. but we did win.. 93-85 over New Orleans.. funny hearing them call it a statement win.. It wasn't like most of the team played very well Young made 6 shots.. but too 17 of them to get there Rubio couldn't shoot
