Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Planning on doing my MP tonight or tomorrow, finally.

Why barely now Jay? Were you waiting for the newest roster release?

I'm just curious is all, because I'm about 40+ games or so into my first year of MP.

It took me about 29 games or so to crack the starting lineup. In my first game finally starting I dropped 49 on the Thunder.

Yeah, mainly I was waiting for Darius Morris, Andrew Goudelock, Josh Harrellson, and one other guy I can't remember. But even though they had 1st rounders in, there were still some guys missing in the showcase. There were still generic players.

But it's cool now, I hope to start tonight. I'm gonna post an update of my player in the showcase and draft interviews.

Maybe it's time to finally up the difficulty from pro. 8 game streak, with 10 to go. 10.5 behind Miami for first seed.

Last 4: vs Ind 77-54 Sixers...@ NJ 81-71 Sixers...@ Was 70-53 Sixers...vs Atl 82-63 Sixers.

I'm not putting up great numbers, but the team as a whole is. Before this stretch I was lucky to get 8 or 9 pts a game from my starters, now they are putting up 14+ with assists and defense to boot.

I'm scoring a little less, but I'm leading the league in blocks, and having some fun throwing screens all around the court. Amusing to see me set a screen, roll out, get it back, give and go and dunk over who ever is guarding me, or just have a wide open lane.

If I had played like this the whole season, we'd be undefeated or close -_-

If you plan on playing a long career with your MP I'd say yes. Make him as young as you possibly can I'd say (just my opinion).

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I am thinking of starting a nother MP. But not any time soon. I want to get my other 2 MP(PG, PF) to a point where I am just boosting small attributes and confident in their games. I almost at that point. I want to wait to I get my PF in his 2nd season(4-5 key games left). He is basically at the point where Im almost comfortable with him. Besides block, defensively I am good with that. Offensely, He can score anywhere inside 3pt range and has a post game. Need to boost Strength, Quickness, Dunk to feel comfortable with him and with a key game and closing in on 1000 career points, I can boost Strength to 80 and work on Quickness. Mental things too.
My PG is almost(not as close as PF) there too. Good(almost great) defense. I am good with that. Offensely, I still got things to work on. I have a solid Mid range(90), a good Shoot in Traffic(86-90), 85 Consistency and Ball Security, but I need to work on a few more things. I have to work on Layup, Shoot Inside, FT, Pass, Vertical, and some Mental things.
I am not too far from that point. I want to get to the point where I am playing games and not heavily focusing on attributes. When I start a new one, I want to be able to focus on that one heavily.

I will create a 6'5 210 SG. I did some searching and found that SGs have similar cap limits. So, I will create a Athletic SG. I will work on defense 1st, then work on mid range. I probably wont create this within the next few days.

Does the shoe deal mean when you go to look at my shoes and some of them give stats? Like +5 to vertical or +5 to mid range shot?

Because if so then yes, at 39 or 40 games I got one.

If no then that means even better shoes are on the way eventually? Great!

Yes.. I'm in Orlando as the PG, now a 80 overall.. I got mine in January.. I was an 78 overall.. Averaging 24 points, 3 rebounds, 5 rebounds.. Though in January I was getting 30+ points, 7 assists and 3 Rebs..

February I'm currently getting 35 PPG, 9 assists, 4 rebounds

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

well this morning i played a game with my PG on the Knicks. we played the Magic and they are complete cheese when CPU controlled. Hedu and Richardson make almost every three they shoot, and the ones they miss Howard jumps over our entire team to grab the offensive board and put it back or kick it back out. we lost 109-102, i finished with 12 points, 14 assists.

after that game i decided to take a little break from my PG, so i started up my PF which i made a week or so ago but only played the showcase and 1 nba game with.

Name: Cedric Cruz
Height: 6'11
Weight: 233
Position: PF
Playstyle: Athletic
Drafted: Round 1 pick 16
Team: 76ers

im only in the 2nd half of my 2nd game with him, but so far its a lot of fun playing with him. right now i have the game paused because i had to go somewhere but im about to go finish up that game, so far i have like 4 points and 3 rebounds or something though

i started him off Athletic, but i eventually want him to become a Faceup and Post player, he is going to be modeled after like an Amare or Bosh kind of PF. i would have went with faceup to start off, but then my speed would have only been in like the 30's and with athletic its in the 60's. and that is just a huge difference, like 50,000 skill point difference. so right now im going to work my mid range shot first since my layup and dunk are already good. im working my mid range up to about 80, i think 85 is the cap for athletic PF. then once i can shoot mid range i will start to work on my defense and rebounding.

i think im going to stay here in Philly, atleast for the foreseeable future. maybe once my contract is up i will leave, or maybe i will request a trade next season idk yet, too early to tell.

im pretty sure the endorsements are not based solely on how good you are playing, a combo of how you are playing and and also how high your league popularity and stuff is(please correct me if im wrong on that), so just keep answering good in press conferences and you will get them eventually

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I got Shoot in Traffic and Shot Low Post to 90, I got Strength to 80(will stop there). I was going to improve Quickness, but I REALLY need to boost Consistency. I was putting it off, but I cant any more. I got it to 78. I will stop around 85. Then work on Quickness. I got Shot Inside to 90
My 1st season is over. I was the ROY. I avg 16pts and 6.5 RBs. Even though we had the worst record, we had the 25th pick. We really needed a good player. We lose alot of players. Nash and Hill retired, Brown left, Pietrus left. Our roster sucks. I am the best player at 75 OVR.
The Starting Lineup:
PG-Boykins
SG-Redd
SF-Dudley
PF-ME
C-Gortat.
If We had a top 3 pick and picked a good player, then I could live with it. But, I HAVE to get outta here. I dont want to go to a great team, but I cant stay here. Redd is washed up and I dont like playing with Boykins. I wont have any body to help me score.
