    I agree about the teammate grade. However, I can't speak for anyone else here, but when I said "it's just a video game", it's not because I don't care about winning. When I play park or rec, I don't go out there playing like an idiot and chucking up crazy shots. I try to play as smart as possible; take open shots, kick out to the open man, play solid defense, etc. If we lose, of course I'll be frustrated, but I know that I did what I can to give us the best chance to win. At the end of the day I don't take it that serious. And why should I? I have other things to worry about. I have to focus on school, and I know most people here probably have jobs and some even families. It's not like I'm playing for money like the 2K League players or some competitive players are. It's not like I'm playing for some kind of championship or award. I just want to enjoy myself and have fun for a little bit. So I feel like saying "it's just a video game" should not mean that you suck or have excuses. Why can't there be a middle ground?
    Glad that you chimed in, because I was ready to post the same thing. "It's just a video game" in sense that I'm not going to get my blood pressure up over it (not intentionally anyways, lol), or am I going to berate and belittle someone due to making a mistake. Also, I'm not going to shun someone, because of their record.

    Having said that, I do play to win, because I'm just as competitive as the next person. However, it's not that important to me where I have to figure out every single cheat or exploit to win some games. I play to win, but I play to have fun too.

      I'm in the same boat.
      I play to win but not at all costs.
      I laugh when I see elites hoop off spots in park because they don't want to face other elites or vips. I say bring on the competition. My park record reflects that mindset. I mostly run with randoms but I've found a great deal that play well and correctly. Record isn't end all be all. I try to get in as many games as I can because my time is finite. I can't burn an hour and only play 1 or 2 games. That's a waste of my time. Because at the end of the day, your record doesn't mean anything once the next 2k iteration comes out.

        Honestly, I don't see how people find the time to be selective about who they play against. It's the main reason why I mainly play PNO. I can jump in, get a game, and then jump off. Waiting/Hunting for 20-30 minutes just to get a game (nevermind if you have good teammates) is ridiculous.

            You tell me then...what's the threshold then where record has a direct correlation to that player being trash? 10% 20%? At what win% is it the player's fault, if at all.

              Keith01, if you're record isn't over .500 you shouldn't be able to talk about everyone else's records.

              I'd bet my left testicle it's not.

              If it were, it would mean you had done friends. I don't think you do.

                Personally...maybe 30% and below could be suspect, but I could see myself not caring. It's not like people with winning records play any better. From my experience, people with low winning percentage tend to have the better "IQ" or are team players, hence the reason for the low record...they won't adapt to the meta of the JRC. Yeah...I know that it sounds like an oxymoron. People with high winning percentages are typically cheesers or like using the OP builds of the game.

                    U just can't tell sometimes I mean it's almost like buying a lottery ticket you don't know until u scratch it off if you won so looking at a record and being determined that their trash is wrong and once u played with them then u can make that judgement u might get a dude who record is 20% win percentage but dude might be good you can't tell by record I would just play and try to have fun bro don't take this game too serious I mean I think we kinda loss the fun of it when this online stuff got big bro we just used to pop in a game and have fun win or lose of course we all want to win but at the end of the day it's entertainment (btw bro my name Keith as well)

                      You take unranked games that seriously?

                      Take your own advise and get a squad...JRC means nothing my guy

                        At least half of my losses are quiting during game because of people like you who take unranked like it's a damn job and the game is boring AF.

                          The truth lies in the middle.

                          Sure you can be a decent player with a win ratio of less than 40%.

                          But if i see you standing there in the lineup with a 75 overall, a 25% win ratio and less than 10 ppg avg, i’m going to assume you’re trash and i’m dashboarding.

                          Bottom line: you win a basketbal game by putting more points on the board than your opponent.
                          And if you cant contribute an avg of 10 ppg, you’re a liability, not an asset.

                          I play with randoms, i have 9 different builds and my playstyle is supportive, ergo i never assume the primary scoring role. And i still put up 12pts average, have a +50% win ratio and am3 rank (pro 2 in park)

                          Yeah sometimes i got to dashboard a few times, but if i see 40% ratio’s and a good avg ppg i take the chance.

                            Lol aye I dont know about this one. High PPG players are just as much of a risk as a low PPG player. Some players with high averages and losing records are straight chucks. Folks out here are averaging 28 PPG on 25-30 shot attempts. You may have a low PPG player who doesn't score as much but makes up for it on the other end of the court. It's a lot of variables that go into it so either way it's a risk lol.

                              You win a game by doing what you are supposed to do according to your build.

                              Not forcing stuff because people online think you should at least avg 10 ppg.....
