Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Now realize that this is harder to do on Superstar, where the opponents always play lockdown D, and hit every shot.
Even on the Heat, the big three miss open jumpers from my passes, and then the opponents hit fadeaway threes all day.
If I lower the difficulty, sure, I can get assists to them all day, but it is too easy to score then, and lets face it, if someone can score every time, passing to someone who may miss is not smart, did Wilt get 10+ assists per game in his 50ppg season?

My SF did this, while he scored 65 points per game, with only 12 assists, the fact that I was so hard to cover and scored so often allowed my teammates to not force anything, leading to a jump in their assists, and a huge improvement is shooting percentage.
(While on the Hawks Josh Smith shot 63%, Horford shot 60%, 1 and 2 in NBA. Both all-stars if I remember correctly)
(Despite Smith only averaging 16pts, 8reb, 4ast, 2blk, he was third of fourth in MVP voting, and Horford averaged 14pts, 9reb, 3ast)
So they were all-stars without putting up huge, eyepopping, MVP type numbers, and we went 71-11.
I also shot 59%, with a lot of 3s, so I wasn't bringing down the O by missing so many shots.
As a team we averaged 54% shooting

Now on the Heat on Superstar, it is hard to put up these #s, averaging
64pts, 13reb, 8ast, 5stl, 2blk on 62% shooting. (better shot selection and more free throws) But when teammates can't hit shots, I have to turn it on.

I'd have 10pts, 4reb, 3ast after 1st quarter.
At half I'd have 20pts, 8reb, 6ast.
Then my team can't hit anything after Half.
Id get 40pts, 5reb, 1ast is 2nd half, bc I have to hit everything to keep it close, can't afford to have LeBron chuck up a 3 and miss when I'm down by 2 with a minute left.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

21 games left. I have 4 Back-to-back Key Games(2 against Boston).

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

20 Games Left. 47-15, best in the league. Avg 32-11-7, on a 5 or 6 Triple Double streak. I just maxed Strength. I will boost Dunk(80) now. I wanted to wait until +10 Shoes come up(on another console), but I have been missing some dunks. After that, I will finally get to max stats I left off. Then I will boost stats like Rebounding, Shoot Low post. I have 3 Straight Key Games, so I should get Dunk to 90.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I just had my first Quad Double and against Boston. 38p-17a-13r and 14 TOs. Every time I face Boston I always have alot of TOs. Most of them arent really forced passes(5 were and a couple of stolen), it was just fast reacting by cpu. Problem is my is against Boston again(back-to-back games). My goal is to have 5 or less TOs. Then I have 2 more Key games

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Only around 15 games away from the All-Star Game in my second season and I'm running away from everyone in votes. I simulated to it so I could unlock my last trophy towards the platinum trophy, but once I got it I deleted the save file that I simmed with. I don't want to sim any games :P.

Apperently, The Kings want to replace me as starter when we trade Marcus Thorton and now we have lost 4 straight with udrih as starter.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

So if you put say a pair of +10 dunk shoes on it doesn't take you to 110 if your dunk stat is already maxed out does it?

I just cracked the starting rotation for the Wizards. It's a shame to see Nick Young have to move back to a bench role because he's been pretty awesome (18ppg and pretty much the most consistent guy I get assists off because he's deadly from deep) but I'll get over it.

No. No rating goes over 99.
I was going to wait for the shoes to come up, but I do have 3 straight Key Games and no rating I want to or need to improve. I have 80 rated dunk and I still miss dunk once every 2 games and I want to unlock more dunks since 80% of my points come from dunks. I am not a jump shooter. I will if I have to or am wide open, but most of the time I try to drive to the basket. I am a Athletic PG, but I play like a Pass-First PG. Most of the Pick & Rolls are trying to get a assist. When I call a Iso for me I try to drive, thr only time I try to create a shot off a iso is when the clock runs low. I might use the 4+ 3pt shoes, so I can fully max 3. I have it at 94 and I still miss a good percent of them.

Thanks for the reply.

Do you use the textbook jumpshot? I am only rated 81 from 3 and have been averaging 52% from 3 after about 20 games. That jumpshot form (with feedback on) is absolutely money from deep / midrange for me.

How do you know which games are key games before they happen?

I used to use Textbook, then Waves. But I use Ray Allen now. I love his jumper, quick and smooth. I have 94 rating, but I still miss shots. Even though I have 90 Consistency, I still get cold quickly

I know key games by either Rival or Star Player. So I check if the team has a Star Player at my position. I dont really know Team Rivals.
My current Key Game streak consists of Boston twice, Bulls, and Utah. Rajon Rondo twice, D. Rose, and D. Williams. But it doesnt work all the time. I didnt have a Key Game against B.Roy with my SG

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

My Sf just got traded from the grizzles to the warriors. They weren't even interested when I requested a trade. Te magic were interested but I didnt go. First game with new team monta Ellis gets hurt at the end of the game.
Me 35
Monta 30
Step curry 19
David lee 10

Bench barely scored.

Next game we played the thunder and it came Down to 4 minutes. The backup pg was in his place and wa jacking up shots and the thunder kept getting easy shots and they won. Next game we beat the mavs by ten. Two 50+ point games in a row. Against Miami monta came back. It was close till the end of the 3rd we went on a run and stayed on it. Lebron thought he was the king and kept shooting. Had 7 blocks on him yet they ask me why we let him score alot


Stats are 35points 13 Rebs 4 ast 1 stl 2 blks

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I just pull of a hot alley oop. I tipped the ball away from Rondo. I hesistated and by time I got to the ball my teammate was close, so Me and him ran down the court side to side. I threw a alley-oop off the backboard and he caught it and dunked it in the air. The dunk itself wasnt all that, but all together it was crazy. It showed it as a bad pass, but I still got a assist

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Does anyone have "Star" role on the Player Card?
I have the star under my feet, but not in the menu. I am a 99 OVR PG. I am still recognized as just a starter. I bring this up because I remember when I got to a 91-93 with my SF, I got a message saying that I am a star and my team will run plays towards me. Is it because I am a PG and that I call plays. I would like to get plays ran toward me without having to call them

[Bone Machine]

Wow... This mode can sometimes suck so hard... If a play is not going well, the team will just pass the ball to the PG 8 feet behind the 3pt line and he will jack up a last second shot??? Why???
