Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread
Update on my career with the Timberwolves. We got to the conference finals in rookie year, the highlight beating the league best Warriors in 5 games. However we collapsed against Portland in the conference finals and lost 4-2 as they went on to win the NBA title in 6 against the Cavs.
So entering free agency my options were there, with remaining with the Wolves my first choice. However, my home town Cavs had let JR Smith leave for Charlotte, leaving a spot open at shooting guard. I couldn't turn it down. For much less money I decided to go with the Cavs and create our own Warriors style big 4.
Through our first six games we're undefeated. I'm averaging 18 points to go with 9.8 rebounds and 8 assists. Much of the load has been taken off LeBron so his role is primarily as a playmaker and defender rather than a scorer now. Bench guys like Gary Neal and Michael Beasley are putting up great bench numbers as we've raced out to start the season with the best offense in the league and the third best defense, keeping our opponents below 100 points in half our games while only failing to reach 100 once. The big highlight was a monstrous 47 point win, 138-91, over the Spurs on the road.
Durant went back to the Thunder, who had been one of the teams I considered going to.Last edited by 3304Life; 12-16-2016, 04:46 PM.Comment

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread
So we(Bulls) just lost our 4th straight game. I shoot 18% from the field. We get blown out by 40 to the 3-10 Nuggets. Immediately after the game a cut scene plays in the hall coach tells me good game and that me and justice are really starting to click out there. This is the issue I have with these forced cut scenes. They make no sense. Your play has zero affect on the story.It’s easier to do the right thing, than to explain why you didn’t.Comment

What attributes exactly does the Playmaker Grand Badge increase? And does it make a difference?Comment

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread
How do I increase my FT rating? I'm a sharpshooter that shoots like 70% from the line it's really stupid.

Up 3-1 on the Warriors in the Conference Finals.
Curry whooped us good in Game 2 with 49 points and 9 threes, but in every other game I've had a triple double, and Cousins is averaging like 40 PPG. He had 47 pts in Game 4 (due to me putting the ball in the right spots, abusing that pick and roll). Justice Young is also knocking down timely, big shots for us. Truly playing like a big 3.
EDIT: Beat the Warriors in game 5, i had 24/5/21, Cousins was a BEAST with 37/17 and Justice had 27 with 9 threes.
Facing the Bulls in the Finals. Kind of sucks we won't play the Cavs but should be a good one anyways. At least they are the 2nd seed and it's not like previous 2ks where we would face 7th/8th seeds.Last edited by lilteapot; 12-18-2016, 11:25 AM.Comment

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread
After a good game, my PF had a cut scene basically saying that he has a minor hamstring injury. I could have easily played through it, but I elected to sit games because I want to get this season over with anyway. We faced GS, SAC, CLE in the games I sat out and lose all those games. But, we are already locked up a playoff spot. We are still 1.5 games ahead of #2 team in East, and have a 8 game lead in our division. I am a lock for Rookie of Year and Defensive Player of Year. We have 13 games left and only a few team practices, so I might just sim more games. We pretty much have division locked up. So even if we lose more games, we wont fall past #4 in east. Only team, I would like to avoid in Playoffs in Cleveland. But my PF is able to guard 3-5 spots very well, so I do think we can beat Cleveland in a seriesComment

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread
Sophomore year in the NBA, now with the Cavs and 13-2 after 15 games (we dropped one to Orlando after I took these screenshots).
I'm in the voting for the ASG, putting up some pretty healthy numbers.
Paul George has been fantastic, we're facing his Pacers in the next game and LeBron will have to be at his best defensively.
Advanced stats for the team show that I lead us in PER, efficiency and GameScore. Kyrie has been really inefficient, attempting over 11 threes over game and making only around 3. The two games we have lost this season I can attribute almost entirely to him just chucking relentlessly. He's shooting 24 times per game per 36 minutes, almost double what I and LeBron attempt.
Finally, conference standings. As you'd expect from the Cavs and the roster we have.
The surprise package is Tristan Thompson. His work on the glass has been so valuable to our good start with all the misses our perimeter guys produce. I think he averages around 10 points with 11 rebounds.
