Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I've noticed some of you talking about turnovers. I'm now 41 games into the season and I'm avg. only 1 turnover a game. What do you guys do to get so many turnovers? I use the icon passing all the time I very rarely pass using the A button.

I avg about 3 TO's per game, usually on some bs. The cpu seems to always stick their arm out at the last possible second and deflect my passes. Usually happens when I see a guy cutting to the hoop or when I try to throw an oop. On all-star the cpu seems to have crazy long arms.

what position are you?
what season?
how many assist per game do you get?
how many minutes do you play per game?
how many minute quarters?
what difficulty setting?

all of those factor into it

it was easy averaging around ~1 topg in my rookie season because i didnt become a starter until derrick rose injured himself...so i cant really say my rookie season is a true measurement of my ball handling in games

most of my turnovers are from careless passes made by my teammates even when i dont call for the ball or by process of animation in which i step out of bound from grabbing a rebound...that's the brunt of my complaint regarding turnovers

what i do take responsibility for are those turnovers that results from me doing in-traffic(flashy) passing as i run the fastbreak...or when i mistakenly stand in the paint too long trying to position for an offensive rebound

but within season 2, 3, 4 and now 5...im averaging around ~2.1-2.2 topg in addition to getting around 14.1-15 apg...i play 12 minute quarters on all-star/default...and i get around 27 minutes of playing time so most of my stats are achieved in less than the allotted time im supposed to be playing(41 minutes of playing time) meaning i play at a super fast pace yet i still remain fairly below the turnover rate in the league(usually the league leader is hovering around 3.3 topg in my career)

Do you guys always try to get the objectives in the games? I really don't wanna play that way. I don't even look what the objectives are. I just play the game and if i do the objectives it's a plus.

right now on my rookie season,and being my first time playing a season in this game, ya i try for them... I think it will improve my gaming skills cause it seems to push me in things... just my thought

i avg ~ 6 TO a game, 12 assists.

1/2 are stupid teammates
1/2 are me throwing alley-oops to blake griffin and him either not jumping for it for getting caught in the canned animation of going around a player

We (Bucks) ended up winning the finals against the Lakers in 6. I was awarded MVP and the "visit (spoiler)" after the win was pretty neat.

Our record was 60+ wins. However, after the off season we were ranked 20th with the same team that won the championship (Im sure its based on our player levels). 2K needs to fix that logic. Thanks.

That would have been enough for me to ask for a trade (if on bad team)

[Roobinsky]

I just started my first my player right before all the big trades happened, so I want to start a new one. I personally haven't gotten past the summer games. So technically I really haven't gotten that far.

So out of Small Forward, Power Forward, and Center what do you guys believe is the most enjoyable position to play? (I don't want to play PG or SG) What should be my play style for the respective position? and what should I spend the first 10,000 points on?

Any other tips for playing my player? Thanks

RB(R1) and R-Stick. All you have to do is aim for the player you want to pass to with the Rstick while holding RB(R1)

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I just got my first triple-double in the most exciting game I've played.
The game went to OT, but I secured the triple-double in the 3rd quarter.
We had the lead late, but Minnesota made a comeback and sent the game to OT (I'm a 6'3 PG with Detroit). I hit the game-winning shot with 0.8 seconds left on the clock. I had Beasley one-on-one and managed to get
enough space to hit the jumper. I flew off my chair when it went it. Final score was 96-94.

My stats: 27 pts - 14 reb - 12 ast - 2 stl - 4 blk

I love this game.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Just finished up the Summer Circuit and made the Oklahoma City Thunder roster (I was the No. 21 pick in the draft by them). I'm a backup PG and No. 7 on the depth chart.

I've been playing on PRO/Default since my overall numbers are still so low. I figure once I get my rating a little higher, I'll go up to All-Star.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

a shorter way to call plays for those who play a position other than a PG once you get floor general status....this way you wont have to scroll through the invisible playbook in your head...it will bring you directly to the play menu for each specific position

just tap L1/LB to bring up the pass icons...then press the icon button of the player you want to run plays for....now choose either one of the 5 available options(x/a, o/b, square/x, triangle/b or flick the right stick to send your teammate on a cut)
