    Re: Matchmaking in Rec is awful.

    Some good random synergy, lol

    Middle guy quit with seconds left for some reason.

    The 3rd quarter defense was ridiculous

          Hedge the screens, die on everything, but switch like hell.

          Give up the paint and the weakside defender will be there to contest.

          Big can recover by now and the guards have the offense sealed on the boxout so big can do his job and jump over everyone.

          Play steady for a good 2-3 possessions and now the offense is going to switch their tactic and try to attack the basket.

          Start going underneath screens instead of over, guard the paint.

          After 5-6 possessions their offense is cold and they can't buy a bucket outside.

          Keep playing the paint, now your leads up cuz you've been scoring in transition.

          3rd quarter over, they all quit.

          Sound about right?

            I should get the reward for resurrecting it , lol. I'm pretty sure I bumped it when I jumped into REC full time. Plus, I'm going to take credit for pulling The 24th Letter from PNO to REC .

                lol def my fave. Its weirdly calming to see that everyone else has the same issues as me.

                Ill never lie and say im NEVER a huge reason why my team loses but i feel like im a good player who doesnt deserve to play with bums 95% of the time. Couple ppl have run with me on this board and I am what I am. flaws but for the most part im down for whatever the winning play is. If thats me getting 10 ast ill do it, if its me sitting in a corner all game ready to shoot ill do it.

                The fact of the matter is this game simply doesnt reward basketball IQ enough, and badges are a big reason for that. Putback king is my least favorite badge when im not at C. Bigs are just idiots with it on HOF. SO many other badges that promote trash play. Not a good look

                  i've received a few messages after rec games recently because i play with my shot feedback off.

                  they cant fathom that someone doesn't like to see a green splash..they also hate that they cant leak out cause they cant see my timing.

                  of course they claim i'm a cheater lol.

                    Figured them out.

                    I messaged everyone on the team to leave the paint to me and stop digging down. My 5 blocks and 4 steals were all in the 3rd, lol

                        I just dont want to know my shot is cash after it leaves myplayers hands. The fact the opponent cant read my meter is an added bonus.

                          Even if i dashboard a lot, i still get a lot of low IQ players with GOOD stats. I think it all depends on what time you play. If you're in the states,playing during the daytime, you're gonna get a lot of kids. If you play at night its mostly adults. I think kids play on parent accounts and little brothers and stuff.

                          Mostly at night you get your most competitive games across the board. So its really what you're looking for.

                          If i had a squad nightime was much better. I ran with randoms mostly during the day.

                            I outplay my matchup regardless.

                            I love it if people dashboard.

                              Like I posted a few pages back, me and a blue fro'd/ 69 numbered point center went on a tear..

                              I also had some damn good games with a guy name Poophead a couple days ago..

                              I run with whoever, lol
