Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

After my first career game, I completely maxed out Med Range and 3pt at 99. So I got my essential expensive scoring attributes maxed first. But Everything else is untouched. I will work on Shoot in Traffic and Shoot off Dribble next. I only have 1 drill left. I can work on small things after that. My SG feels so slow and weak.
I will ask for a trade from OKC. Dont want to ask for a trade, but all the plays are either geared to Durant and Abaka.
Any Suggestions on a Jumper similar to Waves. I like it but I want to start fresh.
It also looks like I wont get a Key Game until later in the season unless I become starter quickly or trade to a team with a bad SG.

How in the world did you max out 3pt and med shot after just one game?!
My favorite jump shot for guards is Silky. A nice floating J.

After the first game of the season. I focused on only on 3pt to start out with the 10000 SP and started out 82 3pt. Then I kept subtracting the points since it is alot for 3pt to boost Med then I after I get the +1 3pt it would be maxed and I got 1200+ SP each time I did a drill. I got lucky when I did the Shooting Drill and was getting 3pt every time and I got +2 3pt 3 or 4 times. I only have 1 drill left. I used 21 out of 22(1 left)drills on Shooting drills and got a +1 or +2(only 3 or 4 times) 3pt, 20 times and Med once and 8400 SP that goes with the drills and SP from the 7 games.
Besides 3pt and Med(+5 shoes) being maxed out, everything is untouched and needs to be boosted

I spent 9 games with the Grizzlies, submitted a trade request, 1st (and only) choice was the Celtics... 2 games later after dropping 25 points (career high) I get traded for Pavlovic in a man-for-man trade. I went from 6th man @ Grizz to starting for the Celtics. They were 5-7 when I joined them, quickly ran off 4 straight wins.

I am leading the league in 3PT Made by 6 (3pt shot is only 63) shooting .403 from behind the line. My mid is 82 with inside/close still in the 60s.

The interview questions kill me.. I rarely answer them right...

Got my first Jordan sponsor thing, a billboard of course.

How did you get your videos to upload? I ask because my vids are horrible in quality each time I upload on 2ksports site. Half the time I can't even log on to see them myself.

Aren't key games just against your rivals?

Rivals are key games, but also when you play against someone great at your position. That only applies when you are the starter though.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Key games can be because your opponent is your rival or because your specific matchup is considered one of the best in the game.

As a SG for Phoenix my Key "Rival" games are against the Lakers and Mavs. I believe the "Player" key games for me are against Portland (Brandon Roy) and Memphis (OJ Mayo)

Ah gotcha...

Just had my best game ever... 38 Pts 15-20, 6-7 from 3, 3 rebs. Not bad for a 58 rating.

Celtics have yet to lose since I was traded to them.

NAMED ROOKIE OF THE MONTH woot!

I wasnt the starter and I still got a Key Game. That is what I believed, I didnt get Key games until I became a starter, but I got lucky.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Just maxed Shoot in Traffic(80 is kinda of low). About to max Shoot off Dribble. I am disappointed that On Ball Defense maxes out at 65 for 3pt specialist, it should be at least 80 at the lowest. SO I am about max that and steal and Defense Awareness. I will then work on small things and Ball handle and Vertical
I will request a trade from Thunder. All of the plays go for Durant,even James Harden only gets 3 plays a game, so it would not change if I became starter. I will do it the game after the next, which might be my second Key game in only 8 games of the season
Just changed my Jumper from Waves to Ray Allen. It fits my playstyle as a 3pt specialist. It is very quick.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I love being a 3pt specialist and having 3pt and Med maxing out at 99. It is different feeling scoring 30 as a 3pt guy then scoring 30 as a Inside-Med guy. The lead grows faster. The ability to catch and shoot from the top of the key.

I think that's how most people play. By spotting up to shoot the ball and working on the medium shot. I just started adding skill points to my 3s since I'm taking them more. I attempted 6 3s in my rookie season and made 2.
