Re: NBA 2k15 team play book thread

any suggestion for new Celtics team roster(Isiah, Crowder, Jerebko)? I think team's playbook has definately changed.<br/>
Celtics are my fav team and I'm always playing around with the playbook, POEs, and strategies. Brad Stevens knows how to use all these nobodies (Tyler Zeller, Jonas Jerebko, Luigi Datome, Jae Crowder) and turn them into quality players. I want to do the same

Post #265 has the link for Plays that work. You could pick and choose from those. Hope this helps.

What do you guys do when a team has some players who would hinder a play with their spacing, but others who would benefit that same play?

For example, a 1-5 high pick-and-roll with Ibaka (PF) spotted up at the three-point line works, because Ibaka can shoot threes. Same play with Collison in the game would not work, because he can't/doesn't shoot threes.

You assign Play Types to ONLY the player the play would work for and make sure Individual Tendencies are Edited for each player as well. Meaning Collison would get 0 on 3pt Tendencies.

But even if you don't give Collison P&R Roll Man so as to avoid this, the fact that Westbrook has it would still cause the play to be run where Collison is spotted up as a three-point shooter.

But he shouldn't shoot it if his 3pt tend. is low.

Yeah, but it makes it way too easy to defend. Collison spotting up at the three-point line means I don't have to defend him at all.

And the Thunder won't run those plays with the PF spotted up as a three-point shooter when Collison is in the game.

Why wouldnt you have to defend him? If his tendencies are right he can drive to the basket. Just because he wont shoot the 3pt shot doesnt make him ineffective.

I'm not really worried about Nick Collison putting the ball on the floor with the intent of getting to the rim, much less from the three-point line. If he wants to do that instead of Durant/Westbrook getting looks, I would live with that 100 times out of 100.

Re: NBA 2k15 team play book thread

What would be a suitable amount of plays for each playbook? 50 seems a little high as I'm not sure if NBA teams run variances of 50 different plays in a particular game...maybe but I don't know. Just trying to figure out a good amount without being too predictable as well by running the same ones over and over again.

Not really getting what you are trying to get at? You asked How to get Ibaka involved and I told you how we handle it with success. Also mentioned how to keep Collison from taking the shot IF he happens to have it called while he is in game. You can Also ONLY give Play Types to certain players to ensure your the Main guys are involved.

25- 40 I feel gives a good balance. It will depend on what type of Offense you want to run.

No, no, you misunderstand. What I'm trying to say is that in real life, big men don't spot up from places where they can't catch and shoot, since a kickout to Collison at the three-point line, for example, is not dangerous at all, since he can't put the ball on the floor and can't shoot from that far.

The problem is, Ibaka can do that, and they play the same position.

So if OKC has a player where Westbrook and the center run a high pick-and-roll, and the PF is in the corner spotted up as a three-point shooter, I have to respect Ibaka and stay with him or give up an open three-point shot to someone who can make it.

If they run that play with Collison in the game, I don't have to respect him at all, and it would make playing help defense way too easy and it'd be unrealistic.

But I don't know of any way to make them run that play with Ibaka in the game and not run it with Collison in the game. Removing P&R Roll Man from Collison's play types won't do it, because the center and point guard will still have that play, and he'll follow the play and spot up in the corner.

I can show you video if you want of how Collison spots up when he's off the ball in pick-and-roll situations.
