    Can you even play a pass-first PG in this game and have success? I don't think so. If I play a Chris Paul with ~20 PPG I don't think I get enough endorsements and stuff.

      The fact that Dwight Howard just bricks every rebound shot and misses a ton of them makes me want to break my controller.

      I don't care what the team chemistry is. Dwight Howard doesn't play this awful on the boards. It just doesn't happen.

        You can't be a role player as a PG. You won't get anything. In fact, my A potential dropped to a C+ during my 1st year because I tried to be that role player guy. Nope, not good enough.

        You have to play superman and get 30+ PPG, 12 RPG, and atleast 5+ APG. And do all of this while you're at mid 70's overall getting 40 minutes a game lol.

        Also I absolutely REFUSE to spend real money to buy VC like a lot of people do. So at the start of my 2nd year, I'm only a 72 OVERALL. *shrug* Playing the best I can getting A+ teammate grades, but not a lot of points and mediocre assists.

        Funny. It doesn't matter what position you play in MyPlayer, you don't get 20+ points a game, you ain't special.

My best game is 40 points....but I average around 28 pts, 10 assists per game. Some of the issues with the other player around you shooting poorly are centered around how you are using them. Can't say enough how important it is to look at your teammates ratings and tendencies. If you put them in a position to succeed...they do.
          Yeah, I used this advice posted in this topic 1-2 weeks ago, and I've been enjoying the game much more. I run plays for Martin/Singler where they come of screens for an open jumper, play double PnR with Monroe and Drummond (or Gortat) and when help defense comes I dish it out to Martin/Singler in the corner or go to the rim if possible, I feed Monroe down low, lob pass it to Drummond coming of a screen, etc. I'm really having a lot of fun and have been averaging 13 assists per game, 25 pts and I usually take between 15-20 shots per game. Once you learn all the plays it's superb, I still use freelance but not nearly as much, I really try to involve all my mates, last game Martin scored 27, Monroe had 20, Drummond 17.

          No another note, my Pistons GM continues his tradepoloza, made his 3rd in roughly 3 weeks, now traded Tony Mitchel for Shawn marion. Bench is really getting good:
          Starters: Me, Martin, Marion, Monroe, Drummond
          Bench: Jennings, LaVine, Meeks, Singler, Gortat

          I'm in february, grind for shoe deal continues, but we are on track for a #4 seed in the East, I'm more and more leaning towards re-signing with Detroit after the season.

            How long before Jackson Ellis gives me my choice of Nike or jordan ?

            He came up to me last season, and I've dropped 50 several times, triple doubles, game winners and this guy still hasn't hit me back.

            Anyone else?

              Go to milestones>career> and see how many games you've played. You should get it around 60-70 games played depending on how well you play, fans, and ovr I believe

                  It's a video game. You can't realistically expect it to be EXACTLY like real life. It's a video game & YOU, the user, are the man in charge. Especially in the MyCareer mode, they had to do some things that would involve you. Everything is linked to you. You've just gotta figure out how everything works & figure out the best way to get things working right on the team. Coach satisfaction, team chemistry & a few other things are very important & also related to player performance. Some games players have good games, some games players have bad games. 2k actually does that. That's not the computer cheating. That's real life. Not trying to insult or attack you or anything.

                    (Of course, the complaining is questionable, since it appears your guy still got the rebound with his eyes closed...)

                      Just passed up the State farm deal A after getting 11 ast. I guess it didn't register my 10 ast two diff times. Still grinding for that shoe deal!

                                I'm not sure you can succeed with a pass-first.. passing's not all that accurate without boosting it so you'll have to score to get VC to upgrade .. that's how I see it
