Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Yeah, I think personally for big men, Athletic is best just because you can grab boards easier and get more blocks due to the vertical. Well, my biggest problem for rebounds other than occasionally getting out jumped by guards is misjudging the bounce off the rim and missing completely but guess I will get better in time.

Most of the rebounds I miss out on is because I dont time it right. I jump too early or dont take the right angle. I mainly only play Key Games, so I am matched up against really good big men. I will have to just time it.
Even though I am just playing Key Games, I plan on staying with Cavs. We will have a top 4 pick every year.
The rookie PF Suns traded me for is having a better season than I am(statistically).

Yeah, I am playing most of my games until I get to around 70 or 75 overall. I was drafted by Golden State so I plan on staying here as long as they don't butcher the team. Curry, Ellis, Lee and I make a great four, well Lee isn't that good in this game but Ellis and Curry can hit all the shots while I can handle the paint.

Though we are 5-4, I am the starter now and most of the losses came when I was subbed out.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Any way to shorten the amount of key games you play? I really don't have the time to play 30 a season plus playoffs and ever expect to end my career. Right now I'm just fouling out of 4 out of 5 key games to keep a decent pace.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Just finished my first game as a starter and my field goal percentage was just AWFUL but overall had a solid game earning another double-double and player of the game. JaVale McGee showed why is one of the best shot blockers in the NBA with three on me.

26 points(10-23, 6-6 FT's)
13 Boards
4 Assists
2 Steals
1 Block (lost about 5 due to teammates fouling at same time)
1 Turnover

Thats what I do at times. I wish they kept the "Sim to End" thing in the game. I dont want my stats to suffer.
I want to get deep into my career. I dont want to play short quarters.
Because of the draft bug, I try to stay on a team that will be in top 10. So, their will be young talent on team. If my SG were to stay on POR, They would have to trade for young talent because they would always pick late in draft.
I will start to boost my OVR(Off/Def Awareness) so I can get a good contract for my PG and PF. Even though I will stay on their teams, I want a good size contract.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Seems like u can't be all-star starter.

3 seasons in a row, I'm the highest all-star vote by the big margin. Other guards got just a bit higher than half of my votes. The NBA headlines said I'm a starter but whenever I enter the all-star game, I was reduced my role to bench#7 and got playing time around 10 minutes. (I played on both East and West in my career and my starting jobs were stolen everytime)

To make it worse, randomly, after playing each all-star game, sometime the coach on my team will also reduce my role from starter to bench. No matter hiw high my ratings and my stats and how worst the reserved SG are. (Which will require several matches to fight for your starting spot back. If you simmed some games, the chance for getting your strating spot back will be harder than playing every game. The team also bad when bench me since the coach will sit us at 4 quarter and the team will blown away the lead easily just like the beginning of my career)

When it randomly happened, it happened everytime even if I play that all-star match again and again. The solution for this is to sim games passed all star match to avoid this

So mant glitches and bugs. Thanks 2k.

Oh, and I only got White House visit pics with Obama and my teammates on my 1st season. On my 2nd-4th, just a pic of White House and nothing more.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Man, Monta Ellis is a loser. Down 93-90 to the Nets, I get the ball after a rebound and throw it Ellis who is streaking to the corner. He gets it and doesn't take the wide open three then passes to Curry who takes an awful contested three.

Curry makes two baskets at the end but it isn't enough due to needing to foul. And then I get press conference making fun of the Heat crying in the locker room.

Hah, tell me about it! I played against Ellis and the Warriors with my Knicks, up 20 in the 3rd. Later 2:30 left in the 4th it's an even game! Melo commits 4 consecutive turnovers and we lose by 2 because Monta drops a 3 and I can only score another layup before the clock runs out!

Melo scored 2 points the whole game (played 29 min!) and we ran a ton of plays for him.

At the press conference my SG heavily critizises his team (and rightly so: 33pts, 5 rb, 5a, A+) and his teamchemistry rating and local fan support drop drastically. (Melo hasn't scored more than 8 points a game in the last 4 games !)

Yeah, I did my job in the game(offensively, Lopez killed me defensively) with 33 points, 11 boards and 3 blocks but it's whatever, I can only do so much as a center. I told them my team doesn't cry in the press conference and got good results for Team Chemisty and League Popularity but a down arrow for fan support.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I made a all-around PG

drafted by the knicks 17th overall.

Im 36 games into it, record is 23-13.

we were 22-9 before stat went down with a high ankle sprain, 1-4 without him (he came back 2 days games ago, but is only playing 11 minutes a game since hes hurt)

so anyways, im averaging 12.8 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 10.5 APG, 2.1 SPG, and 0.6 BPG, oh and 3.9 TPG (LOL)

so last game was against the grizzlies.

were up by 7 with 30 seconds left, they hit a 3. 4 point game, melo hogs the ball and he misses, they get fastbreak layup, 2 point game with 7 seconds left.

they call a timeout, and feed the ball to gay on inbound, who passes it to wide open z-bo for dunk.

tie game, 4 seconds left.

we call a timeout, i get the ball off inbound, drive up and drift to right.

nothing but net, but they review the call and show i released it after clock 0.0

so we go into OT, we go back and forth, i had 12 points and 9 assists before OT. i ended up the first OT with 16 points and 12 assists.

so anyways tie game, with 5 seconds left, conley is around the free throw line, pumps, i dont go for it, then he shoots, and the ball rims out (almost had a heart attack)

so then its second OT, and 3 point game, they have the ball with 27 seconds left.

i steal the bal (7th steal of game), then drive up, looking to feed it inside for quick score. i lose the ball (i had 9 turnovers in total, need to bring up my ball security up)

then we have to foul since less then 24 secs left.

so anyways, we go back and forth. 3 seconds left. conley is fouled. he goes to take the freethrows. they are up 2.

he misses the first. he then misses the second, and they ****ing rebound it.

game over, as he sinks both freethrows.

i then waited for game to save, but then i raged quit.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

oh and i have to say PG is way better than last year. your teamates actually hit shots this year.

i made a SG last year, but PG is mad fun. last year i scored like 66 ppg, this year as a PG, i only scored 20+ in a game TWICE.

but ive had 20+ assists 4 times.

i love dishing the ball, especially to stat.

Also for me! I get voted in as a starting PG for the East, but I'm reserved to a bench role. As for getting reduced role to 7th man on your team, I just sim the All-Star Game and I'm still the starting SG on my team

Also, what is the highest amount of minutes per game?! I'm getting now 42 minutes+ per game, and one game I've gotten 46 minutes of playing time in regulation?! I only get benched for like a minute each half...
