Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I just picked up this game and I'm having a hard time in this mode. I created an athletic PF and got drafted 24th in the first rd. I got advice about pumping up def awr and off awr. They're both 99 atm. My overall through 7 games is 59.

I've been going through this thread and seeing guys score 20+ points, grab 10+ rebs. per game. How are you guys doing this with a player rated around 50? All I can do right now is set screens, grab boards, and score a bucket or two a game off pick and rolls or putbacks after offensive rebs. Should I pump up scoring with my skill points?

Off and def awr is useless, minus them and use it on your shooting and stuff

a higher overall means absolutely nothing if you dont have all the intangibles at a decent number...this coincides with both offensive and defensive awareness...both attributes does absolutely nothing for your player unless you simulate the game...it's a waste of skill points in that sense

you should have poured points into verticals, medium shot, shoot off-dribble and consistency from the get go...it wont give you a higher overall(probably hovers at around 45-50) but you will be more useful to your team and have a more decent stat sheet

the high rebound total is more so due to the second patch that was released for this game than actual skills...when i started this my player career before the patch(october) it was hard grabbing 4-5 rebounds at my height of 6'3''...now, at the same height and with the patch installed im still that same PG but now i bully big men down low and do whatever i want to them on the boards(yes, i am aware of how this sounds like O_o) on my way to become the rebounding champion on season 2...im currently in a tight race for the rebound league against dwight howard at the all-star break of season 3...he has like 20 or so rebounds more than i do because i've missed a few games due to injury or i played some games with foul trouble

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

by the looks of it you're going at it like how i did when it comes to developing your player...you logically neglected the frivolous stats like awareness, emotion, strength, rebound, and etc. in order to save them for the end

strength is not so useless(for non G). I can understand for PG or SG. But for F's and C's it is essential. At first I did not plan to be a post up player. But I am trying to become an all around scorer. Plus on defense being posted up you wont get backed down as easy with a high strength.
I am about to boost Strength and Off and Def Post.

valid points but bruins is a Scoring PG so he doesnt need strength at the moment

I agree. I did not care about strength when I played as a PG.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I am glad I went to a rebuilding after I got my offense to be good. I get a ton of plays called. Compared to my last team, I get a lot of shot attempts in side the 3pt line. This team lives or dies by me. I should be the Floor General in a few games.
Since I am the go-to-guy, I need to boost post-up and 3pt.
Positives:
We have K. Perkins
Go-to-guy
Playbook
Good Defense
Negatives:
Inconsisent shooters(Everyone has it who plays MP)
Teammates commit alot of turnovers.

im a stickler for the default rosters with the current players of the nba...which is why im like back and forth on this matter...but i want to create a PF(to practice with post moves) and begin a new career on my player but that's just a distraction and i should hurry up and finish my third season

im so indecisive at times and so non-committed i swear lol

I can tell you some attributes you need for PF, because Piston run alot of 3 guards and I play PF time to time.

:Shoot in traffic and off dribble
shot inside and close
Off and Def Post
Strength
Dunk
Ball Secruity
Vertical
Layup
I need to improve these since I play PF time to time and so I can be a all around player

if i decide to do it...i just need help with choosing a template or type of PF...

not sure which one has the better statline

I do know All around PF has under 50 speed. Athletic has 60 speed. It counts on what you want to be. Since I play SF and Detriot runs 3 guards sometimes I play PF sometimes. I would be a Post Up Shooter.
I got my 3pt to 61. I am about to try to max my Shoot Low post

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Just had my best game ever(besides my 30-30). We were down 21. We came back to win. What made it significant was that I missed most of the 2th and 3rd because of foul trouble. I had 42 pts and 23 rbs. I had 22 pts in the 4th Q. alone. We out scored them 38-15 in the 4th.
If only it was a Key game I would have gotten close to 5000 skill points.
Just got the Magazine Cover.
I will see if I can upload some pics.

The bottom two ended up being layups. I still cant dunk.

lol! Funny to see a guy go up that high just for a layup.

Yup. Those were alley oops. My player just flicked it

if anyone knows how to actually call a successful alley oop play that ends up in a dunk...please tell me...

i know how to call for an alley oop...it's the finishing part...i can only do what illwill10 can and that's merely flicking the ball in for a tip in...all my stats are maxed out so i dont know what the issue is...timing? height? because im thinking if im at the point where i can flip the ball in...it shouldnt be all too impossible to throw it down

this is the only thing i havent been able to do in the game with my PG...i've already done a putback dunk once which i wont lie, came to me as a surprise
