Please tell me how you got Pick & Roll Maestro.

Are you running a freelance offense or plays, and how many pick and rolls would you say you average a game?

I've been running an offense and when we dont get a good look, I'll run a quick pick & roll, but haven't gotten maestro yet

I play freelance offense and I've calling pick and rolls when the play stucks, I don't know the average, but nothing special.

As SG.. the TWolves are sucking.. the PG's don't run any offense.. they stop and STAND at the top of the arc and dribble the shot clock down over and over.. .. they have Rubio as a shoot-first tendency it seems too.. he'll dribble around for 20 seconds then put up a leaner etc over and over .. I need to get in the starting lineup to have a chance I think.. every time I sit it's like 2k13/14.. you keep the game close/even .. or have a lead.. come back in and down by 10

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

I ended up signing with the Bucks with my PG because the teams I was looking to sign with initially were gonna be tough try-outs... BIG mistake. I play a pass-first style and I have never seen a team so inept at scoring, I set my teammates up perfectly and they constantly clank it, even from under the bucket. Ersan and Jabari are about the only guys that convert for me, but im not on the floor at the same time as them all that often for some reason. Instead I often get pushed to the 2 spot while the worst teammate in the world, Nate Wolters, comes in and proceeds to run an iso for the entire shot clock with his head down, and then brick a contested jumper 4/5 times down the floor.

Needless to say we rarely win. Can't wait to leave when my contract is up at the end of the year. Only gonna play key games from now on and am gonna have to turn into a scoring PG this year I guess.

Hm. So basically, play offline until the server issues sort themselves out. Got it.

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

Almost all of us have had that at one point in the 2 days of the game.. 2K can't handle the server load.. you MAY have to re-create your profile/face etc before you get back into it next time.. I had to turn off the console to get back into the My Player server

Just tried restarting the console but still can't retrieve my guy. Created a new one but no point in playing because once i get 10 day contract it kicks me out and i can't retrieve him also...wtf!

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

Minutes up to 18 after signing the second 10-day contract.. 11 PPG 5.7 boards 2 assists.. shooting 55% but barely touch the ball.. team chemistry 67% ONE major improvement at least so far over 2k14 is my turnover numbers as a SG.. was 4-6 TO per game in 14.. so far under 1 in 6 games anyway... time for a break after playing the first 10-day out

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

I'm not in the game right now but I know you can, it's just in a weird place. Gameplay options maybe?

I think (without being on currently) you can do it from the game options on the main title screen.. there's a my player editor in there I found after it screwed with my name/face etc.. luckily my kinect hasn't worked since 2 weeks into having 'ONE' so never did a scan of my own ugly mug so it's just an edited avatar face

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

So I'm in my second season (simmed a lot of game for the loser *** Hawks, so I could get out of there)

First of all it's true that stalker-Doc Rivers becomes your coach. I really don't like it. I'm on the Bulls right now (SF), and although I knew he'd be there I wanted to play for Thibs. Very good voice actor though.

For those wondering at the end of the season you get to select from a list of teams, and their interest in you will vary. You pick 3 and your agent does the work. I'm not sure about this, but I'd suggest everyone change their "favorite team" to the team they want to play for. It may have 0 effect on the outcome of this process, but it can't hurt right? The Bulls was my first choice and Butler came to talk to me. I have to say I'm impressed with him as a voice actor. He isn't great but he sounds very natural.

After your agent does the work he'll come back with offers. The better the offer the higher your "salary" (VC earned for playing games). I'm pretty sure the team you're on will always offer the most, but I took a discount to play for a contender. 1year/2.31 mil, so it looks like I get the same salary as I did last year. Here's hoping my team plays better (THEY SHOULD) to make the play cut worth it and I can make some real money next year.

It sucks that I can't change my jersey number!

Gameplay options very last selection.

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

I always forget to change the minutes to 12. Which is the only true way to play this mode. And there's not a single way on earth to quit a game, change settings and restart it that I can find, so I need to play a game on six minute quarters. Ugh. Takes the whole fun out of my first game for me.

I know, I know Negative Ned over here.

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

The CPU is still ridiculously fast to pick up every loose ball whenever there's a tipped pass, stripped ball, or blocked shot.

The same problem happened last year.

Yeah, had the same complaint last year. I like to play a PF or C and the whole block/rebound/score deal was a thorn for me last year too.
Also getting quite a few "Allow man to score" deals when an outside shot is put down with me guarding a low post guy. AI doesn't seem to recognize a defensive switch quite a bit.

So that tells me that the big Centers are still a sloth.. 6'10 Center was better at EVERYTHING than a 7'0 or taller in 14

Yeah, I think my center I put a 7'1", just to see if had the same sloth problem as last year for big guys. Not sure if its because of my low ratings still, but seems to be not very mobile yet.

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

Just found out. Yes you do develop hot and cold zones. Looks to be based on actual performance.

wow, that's awesome.

it took me a bit to discover that you if you press the joysticks when you're sitting there in the chair, you'll move to the practice zone. that's actually pretty cool and handy.
