Re: What are your best tips to win in Road to the Playoffs?

A) Don't play the game anymore if you are getting so much frustration out of it
B) The bigger question is, if you made a 20 point comeback why are you still jacking up 3's? Why not run the clock and take better, more high percentage shots. You eve said they were 3 B+ threes, surely you could have found a better shot. How about the pick and roll and pass it inside or try some post moves? You have to play smart

If he is standing wide open at the 3 point line I am going to take it. Plus He made the contested 3 so it was to tie it back up.

Okay then don't get mad. It's a video game, the game play will not be perfect. It could be much better I agree, however I've learned a lot play this game over the years.

When you are losing by a large amount or by a few points late in games, I've found it better to play the game of percentages. Try to get into the paint (not in a cheesy way), use post players, ball movement and sometimes making the extra pass. I've found it highly ineffective to hoist up a bunch of 3's when losing because more often than not they are going to miss. If he was open like in your case, that's fine.

Yes the game can seem a bit "cheesy" and just mind boggling at some shots that go in or don't but you have to kinda just shrug it off and stick to your game.

Ahhhh I hate being in the first seed every person I play now puts lebron or Durant at pf I hate cuz I actually use pfs at that position who can't defend either one of them so I usually have to run a 2-3 zone or they just go right by them

Kd can't really gaurd natural PFs. LBJ more of a problem with his strength, but I'll still post him up. Try and get him in foul trouble. Lately I've been playing m2m unless they advance the ball with their 4. Since. I know my 4 can't defend LBJ or kd off the dribble I'll zone up. They bring it up with the pg, I'll go back to man

Re: What are your best tips to win in Road to the Playoffs?

just lose a game such BS

every single time the guy got a rebound he'd have Rose already down the court for an easy dunk
He was paint smashing & I couldn't stop it, even played Zone and set my POE
Then there was 2 minutes where he rained contested 3s

while

I missed 3 open 3s with Pippen (87 3pt rating)
4 B+ freethrows with LeBron

surprised I was only down 5 with 2 min before I tried chucking up 3s

this game is such BS , sometimes the CPU doesn't do chit for you

Re: What are your best tips to win in Road to the Playoffs?

this game is full of quiters.
Even when they are down by 8 in the first quarter some guys give up (in the 3rd Seed and now in the second seed).
I think the level is very low.
All the lineups now got Curry, George, Jordan, LeBron and they don't know how to use them so...

Re: What are your best tips to win in Road to the Playoffs?

Wowowoww just got 2k cheesed..

4 breakaway dunks blocked from behind in a row all go out of bounds his ball...

3 fastbreak passes go off my own players back out of bounds his ball. Not even stupid hail mary's just easy 20 foot passes.

2 seconds left he gets an offensive rebound with John Wall throws up a finger roll FROM THE FLOOR and one to send it to OT....

Bill Russell gets fouled and Cousins swats it with his hand INSIDE the rim and it wasn't goal tending.....

OT I break Jordans ankles with Harden put up an easy excellent release 3 to take the lead... Nope Jordan jumps right off the floor to block it.

Next inbounds Lebron wide open like 6 feet behind the top of the arc Cousins warps over to steal it and end the game.

Re: What are your best tips to win in Road to the Playoffs?

I got trolled by 2k on my quest to get sapphire rose. The whole game its saying my shots are off but had no issues with their shots in previous games(slight lag?), I missed so many FTs also cuz it keeps saying its off but I perfected the release. FTs really hurt me missing 2 straight to close game and then got Kobe cheesed (fadeaway w/ 2 defenders guarding) by opponent to lose the game. Now I have to start 9 games all over again to face more cheesers. Don't know if I can do it again. Has anyone faced that issue w/ the bad release grades?

Seems like the big dunkers like cockback tomahawks on breakaways. So, I started laying it in when there's a defender trailer. Faster to get it up. Once it hits the backboard its off limits

Lol didn't say it was the most realistic. But they seem to have a tendency to throw the ball way back behind their head and slam it with authority, even if the situation dictates they should go straight up. I mean, if a defender is right behind a dunker and he leaves the ball exposed on his back or way out on the side where the defender is, that's what happens.

I feel the same way when my big goes for a reverse, into the defender on the other side of the rim, instead of going straight up and using the rim as protection.

Because there is nothing to work towards for many of the players you are playing. They get to the first seed, collect all of their terrible rewards, and then have nothing to play for.

I know when I fall behind in a game against a cheesing bastard now, I pretty much stop trying. I'm not the dbag who starts chucking up full-court bombs, but I definitely stop playing 100%, especially defensively. What's the point?

Re: What are your best tips to win in Road to the Playoffs?

the question i have to ask is?
what is the fun of using:
a: every possion dirve thru with mj?!?
b: jackin up 3`s every possesion?!?
c: postin up whith mj or kobe?!?

i just dont get it. how can someone have fun whit this game playin the same sh... everytime. it cant be fun for him. IT IS NoT FUN FOR ME.

my last opponent jacked up threes whith d will o.m.g ...he was down by 24 the last quarter and rage quit. i just controlles shaq for the def. rebounds and thought: hey if you think this works.

im really sick of all this stuff. went now to the roots and only use my 2k 13 lineup again. works great because i just now my guys.

pg: walt frazier
sg: the rock (just love him....such a smooth shooter)
sf: james worthy
pf: bill russell
c: shaq

i dont know why but bill as pf works good for me.
