Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Twice I've been drafted to the Blazers. In my first season with my main player we beat the Heat in game six of the Nba Finals. I am now in my second season with him playing with the Bulls.

My first season was a fairy tale. The blazers were on a long losing streak and there was no hope in the media and league-wide that we would make the playoffs. Somehow we overcame every possible obstacle and were planted in the sixth seed.

The first season, from a coaching perspective, was very poor. The coach, Nate McMillian, never called a single defensive play outside of man-2-man. In my second season with the Bulls it is much different.

I earned some accolades with my main player, the most honorable being Rookie of the Year and NBA Finals MVP. It was a fun season. I left the team because our chemistry was crushed (on paper). I took over the starting SG position and Brandon Roy was deomted to SF.

A key trade involved Nene in exchange for Camby. Nene bolstered the offensive load for Alridge downlow and still offered a defensive presence - probably more than Camby since he has treamendous size. The Blazers play with heart. It was a fiery trial. My heart is still there.

I played my first season on Pro but I am now looking for something more challenging. All-Star default I see too many rediculous shots made. All-Star sim is nice too but I find there are far far far fewer 100+ point games which happen at least sometimes and sometimes even consecutively. I am on the verge of using Hall-Of-Fame Sim if need be. I love playing with intelligent players and on Pro the CPU players are just so darn unintelligent. Not enough movement on Pro.

I am happy with the play call maps. In my first season with my secondary player I am seeing coach McMillian make a multitude of plays on the fly - defense and offense. It's also been nice to see a trade made in the first 15 games without my request, however; the trade has come at the expense of team chemistry. We gained Corey Magette and Earl Boykins in exchange for Joel Pryzbilla and some anonymous player. The locomotion effect here: I am the starting SF and Magette is comepting with me for my starting role. Magette is also the league leader in FG%. Behind Magette is a legitimate rising star in Nicolas Batum and Batum's minutes are now hemorraged due to the arrival of Magette. Ruddy Fernandez is also frustrated due to his minutes sinkking since Magette's arrival.

I am now in the hot-seat feeling like I am about to be shipped somewhere, and not the Portland Trailblazers bench - nowhere remotely close to Portland Arena. The team is on a dry streak and have lost 3 in a row. I am 20 games in but we have played about 35 games already; I suffered a couple big injuries early.

My Player Mode is my favorite part of the game - it's the only part of the game that possibly makes it a keeper for me. I look forward to striking a balance in the game play performance for my player mode.

Oh reall? huh that is interesting, so if I take away points from my Inside/Close/Mid/3pt and put them all to Shot Off Drible and In Traffic, I will get better at hitting shots?

i really dont know about that.. i did ok either way.

How do you sim games?

Start a game then quit and sim till end.

Isn't there a penalty when you do that?

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

i think that's how it works...i got the star under my player after my first season...my rating was in the 95's or higher...won MVP as well

ok that mite make a difference, im 99 over all and still a starter. haha

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

What do you guys play with your Game Style on, Default or Simulation?

default....but people play simulation for realism....i seriously dont notice the difference

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I started my season, in 4 games, I suck! More than usual in past My Players, so I pretty much took out all my OFF Awr and Def Awr and put it to my shot. If you want to keep track, it is in my signiture, should update to my changes after I play this next game #5.

dont take away points....you're cutting yourself short when you do that...it's like 75% skill point per buy back...

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I am also thinking about requesting a trade, it seems a little early, what did you guys do? Does it affect anything as far as fans or teammates? Only 5 games in

since it's still early in the game it wont really matter but later on when you achieve floor general status...you might lose your status as that if you trade to a different team

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I may request a trade as well. Being a PG in Orlando isn't really working for me; they play me @ SG the whole game, which I really hate.

you just have to work through it....eventually you'll do good enough to earn more minutes at PG and become a legitimate starter....i had derrick rose move over to SG for me

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I have an 85 mid-range and every shot was clanking off of the rim for me until I upped my shoot off dribble & shoot in traffic. I think the Mid/3 Pt attributes affect mainly set/open shots.

contested shots are a bit harder to make after the patch....i used to be able to make the contested kobe jumper but that was before the patch...

if you got the game for christmas then you dont know what im referring to since the patch is already installed

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Oh, and do you guys deal with the nicknames? I have the announcers call me big dog, I'd rather it just say my number or something, kinda stupid.

lol cant change it...i hate it too...i rather go with the number calling as well...

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Isn't there a penalty when you do that?

you dont get any skill points when you simulate....also you might lose...
