I have never seen stamina recovery as good as you get than with a full timeout.

A&S is right. Stamina increases more with a full timeout rather than a 20-second timeout.

Anyways, I use 20-second timeouts for making quick subs, and use full timeouts when someone is tired (which in my system doesn't happen very often at all) or I need to slow the game down and re-focus and think about what I am going to do. A half-court game is more my style, so timeouts are really useful to me as it completely slows the game down for me, no matter what kind of timeout it is. Basically, there isn't a whole lot of a difference, just call what you think is right at the time.

How do you advance the ball to your end of the court after a timeout? The only time it seems to happen is after the CPU calls one for me.

Let me bring it up now and get it out of the way. I think Pared and I have gone back and forth on this lol.

But in real life... During a 20 second timeout your only able to make one sub. Its not in the game.

As far as I know, it has to be towards the end of the game in the 4th quarter.

A full time-out is gd is your hitting a "L" vs a 20sec where you really have to time to enjoy it.

i dont think the 20 sec to really accomplishs anything at all.. but the full timeout replenishes energy and most importantly if a player is red hot in the game it takes that away and brings them back to neutral again ( i know this for a fact cause i did it to my own player once by accident lol)

i'm pretty sure if you only call 2 20 second time outs during the first half, you get all 7 timeouts again in the 2nd... can anyone tell me why this is?

This isnt true in my case. I have 7 Total all the way... I didnt know you can choose between which timeout you call?

actually, if you call 1 timeout in the first half and its a 20, you WILL have 7 timeouts to start the second half, idk why, but i've been looking at it specifically since i saw this thread... it also seems like if i call a 20 second timeout first, the next timeout i call HAS to be a full timeout?

idk i'm a bit confused by all of the timeout stuff..

also, does anyone else get pissed when you call a timeout to rest your players and seemingly EVERY TIME the CPU will call there own timeout about 5 seconds later? bugs the heck outta me.

Re: Difference between 20 Sec and Full Time Out?

Also it's only 1 20 sec timeout per half not 2 per game.

And on the subs I think if the team calling the 20 sec timeout doesn't make a sub the other can't make a sub IRL.

I call a 20 if I start the qtr shooting bad or, missing defensive assignments, to slow things down and figure out a set to run out of the in bound.

I think there is 1 20 sec timeout per half so if you only call a 20 in the first half you get your other 20 in the second half.

I think in the real nba there are mandatory timeouts at certain points (6 min in the quarter is one as far as I know) which isn't reflected in 2k to my knowledge

But WHY would u call a 20 instead of a full? U wouldn't be wasting the full because u get more Full timeouts anyway. That was my main purpose in making this thread.

This was changed in 2006.
