    Anyone in here playing with 2005 Suns.... I'm having so many problems with them. Doesn't feel like the Suns are as dangerous as they need to be.

      They have no depth which makes them impossible to use imo. My rule for using historic teams is that they have at least 4 real bench players. I hate using low energy players (contrary to popular opinion on stamina, I believe gassed players are tough to use). I win a lot of games just by managing my starters and keeping them fresh for the 4th Q grind that I can’t handle playing with short benches (like the Suns). If you want to use Nash, I’d recommend the 03 Mavs. Nash and Dirk are nasty and they’ve got a plethora of shooters.

        I use the Nets quite well. And they have a very short bench. I'm just not able to generate the same offense.

          Just played my first game as Raps vs Dubs. I could not believe how easy it was.

          They have an awesome team, all 5 starters are 2 way players. I'm so used to OKC no offense lol.

          I'm always hesitant to use new teams vs Dubs but I tried anyway and won easily. Dude hit 5 3s with Gatorade Iguana....keep it close 2K....

          Just need to learn some Raptors plays now.

              What's the point of settings when the team doesn't follow instructions? It's so annoying knowing that you getting killed by rebounds, you make the adjustment to get more rebound, and you still get killed by rebounds.

                That achievement has an extremely low unlock percentage for one reason: When you play PNO player select and win, the win get credited for the tier of one of your random teammates. So you regularly get stuck with needing a win for tier 2 or 3, but can't affect it yourself and must rely on a teammate to choose the tier YOU need.

                Currently the trophy "Locked In" on PSN has a 0.2% clear rate. I got it but I play PNO exclusively since 2 months ago.

                  Just played with the Raps for the first time in a while and realized I had to add Quick Double Drag 2 back. They removed it... doh!

                    Played this game for first time in a while in the Development league and man I gotta say forget GSW the 01 Lakers might be unstoppable.. Shaq legit doesn't miss anything inside if you're just halfway decent at posting in this game. I think I was 20/22 against Brook Lopez lmao. Kobe is well Kobe and you can sub in Horry at the four and basically just use Grant kind of as a bench scorer in post up and hell shred some bum like Ilyasova. I didn't think kid was even bad and blew em out.

                        Been getting back to PNO lately and... ugh. I had the most annoying users facing me last night. One guy ran the Pistons (I ran Kings) and his game plan was the following:

                        1. Full Court Press the entire game
                        2. Offensively, throw alley oops or
                        3. Post spin with Blake/Drummond if he couldn't throw an alley

                        It wasn't a hard win, got him to quit when he was down 9 in the 4th, but man, that is so obnoxious... learn how you play basketball people!

                        Then, next game, I went to the All-Time Kings and ran up against the All-Time Clippers. This dude turned the settings to Smother/Deny All and I just back doored him to death all game. Didn't run any kind of actual O, just back door after back door. Again an easy 9 point win as he sort of, kind of, had a semblance of offense, but still... this guy had won 62% of his games! Like... how???

                          Simple but relying on the cpu defence with smother / deny and then he’ll play off ball!

                            Im still baffled by the fact that the ai fouls when im not pressing ****. Its amazing how this **** penalizes you for doing absolutely nothing. Like im playing on ball defense, staying in front of my man, doing all that work just for the ai to screw that **** up. But the other dude playing off ball defense literally has 4 ai players working like draymond on defense. **** dont make sense to me. Youd think 2k would wanna reward the players actually engaged on the defensive end and not the players who hide

                              Mike Wang said in a video that the off-ball is going to be reworked completely. Now I don’t know if he’s talking about for offence or just strictly defence. Just have to wait and see what they do for 2K20!

                                Yeah, I started playing online again after taking a vacation myself. Honestly, it's really a solid game this year. Still don't understand how people are "sliding" to contest my shots, but my opponent is nailing smothered shots left and right on me. That's been my biggest pet peeve thus far.

                                Otherwise, is still the same bums calling for a screen on every possession. Feels the like suction animations are a lot worse than what I remember.
