The Association - What do you want to know? (2K10)

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

Now, can you edit a draft class at the beginning of each season as well? I figure this will save me from having to create a bunch of draft classes before I start my association, as opposed to just editing one at a time as I progress.

Yes, at the beggining of each year you will be asked if you would like to auto generate the draft class, load the draft class, or create/edit the draft class.

well, i ctrl+f searched fantasy and i searched draft and couldnt find anything, so, how is the fantasy draft? Is it possible to fantasy draft again and if you do fantasy draft, are the contracts more reasonable now? one thing that bothered me is that last year, i could have a decent but not great team put together but i would still be way over the cap. (for example, i'd have kidd as my star and a couple of 80's, 70's and maybe 3 60's) but i'd be almost at the hard cap. same for a lot of the comp teams too.

I'd have to get back to you on this, I didn't get into fantasy drafts.

Is it possible to edit a draft class after its been loaded? Thanks for everything MC.

I'd have to test this.

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

PPG seem to get really high in the later years. There are too many guys averaging over 30 points. Durant, LeBron, Wade, Granger, Roy, and Devin Harris. I know these guys are talented but I think that may be a bit out of whack.

Also would like to see some more nagging injuries. Just little things that keep guys out a game or two. Right now too many guys are playing in all 82 games.

Yeah that doesn't sound great, but I suppose it's better than them not averaging enough. When we really get in to the tendencies this problem we probably vanish.

Yeah I noticed the 82 game problem on LeBron's career stats... This is another reason i'll control all 30 teams, players who even get minor injuries (sore back, shin splints etc.) i'll be putting them on the IRL until fully healed, even if they can play, should make it more realistic. Hardly any players play in real life unless they are 100%. I think this was a problem in 2k9, you had players who had lost like 20 rating points but were still playing 36 minutes a game.

Thanks for everything so far Mo.

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

Potential at 30ppg yes....but I never see Roy or Harris ever avg more than 25ppg.

30ppg is only left to the mecca of basketball player....HOF players


I think that we can control the future ppg by editing some players shot tendencies.

Really great point on the injuries....Players with nagging injuries never miss games in 2k's past....the only thing that it hurt is their stats when they play injured....by conrolling all 30 teams we can finally get the sim/association experience.

I see Harris averaging about 27 points this season. But your right about Roy

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

/\/\ not just that, but also take into account the minutes played by CPU as well. If Mo is playing the default 12 min qtrs, then that may explain the PPG issue. Otherwise, glas we can control the entire league.

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

Nodima, still not sure about the commentary for generated players, It broke on me earlier. They were talking about the Lyle Cameron, a generated rookie who's averaging 25 a game, but they called him Travis Diener.

I also heard them talking about Evans as if he just came into the league. Harlan said something along the lines of "And there's Tyreke Evans the great young player out of Memphis", Clark went on to say how well he's been coached etc etc

...only problem is he isn't really "young" anymore. I'm in 2018.

It looks like there may be a few bugs commentary wise down the road. The generated guys are acknowledged though, they just have to be doing something substantial for Kev & Clark to talk about. I'll keep playing and let you know.

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

I know you were going to investigate some questions already about Draft classes in Assocation so I was wondering if you could throw this in that list on whether or not you can edit tendencies when you create/edit a draft class. Because that could lead to some incredibly deep and accurate draft classes for those OS heroes that don't mind devoting their time for the research needed for that.

That's a good point, seeing as how, other than the 61-62 season (with Elgin Baylor, Walt Bellamy, Wilt Chamberlain, Bob Pettit, Oscar Robertson and Jerry West), the number of players to average 30 or more points per game in a season has never exceeded 3 (most recent being 2005-06 with Bryant, James and Iverson). It's feasible for Roy and Harris to average 30+, but I don't expect it. The rest, however, are almost locks to near that 30ppg mark.

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

for created players, on their ambitions and how important money is to them and
how loyal they are


does it still say not important and not loyal for those things?

Could you give us Blake Griffin's and Thabeet's rating from 2018??? I just want to get an idea on progresion....

Re: The Association - What do you want to know?

saw this question asked but not answered directly....please clarify.

Question about free agency. Last couple of years of the 2k franchise cpu teams were able to sign free agents even if they didn't have cap space. For example, Ben Gordon would become a free agent and the New York Knicks would be over the cap but somehow offer him a contract worth 10 or 11 million and sign him. Never understood how this happened but it always did and this is just one example. Could you check and see if this is still the case. Its kinda unfair if you can't sign a free agent when your over the cap but the cpu teams can. Thanks in advance.
