    i don't know if im correct, but from my personal experience i have noticed the difficulty really doesnt effect you personally. just the higher you go, the worse your team gets and the better the opponent gets. if i really wanted to, i could drop 40+ every game whether it is pro or hall of fame. the only difference is, on pro my team will actually try and we may or may not win, while on hall of fame we most likely will lose no matter what

      Here are just a few things I can't understand about my player

      1. You get taken down in teammate grade so much more for doing something wrong then you get rewarded for doing something well. As a new rookie it isn't forgiving that I'm a shooting point guard put in at shooting guard against Kobe freaking Bryant. Obviously he's going to score but to go down a whole grade because he runs back and hits a fading 3 you have no chance of defending is a bit crazy.

      2. The CPU will make 9/10 open shots and yet I'll miss them...a lot. I'm an NBA player and they will miss and open shot but not The crazy amounts I do. And yet if I let the CPU go and they get a shot off its in.

      3. Teammates are idiots. Nash will run around for 23 seconds and then throw up a crazy layup and get blocked for a shot clock violation. Never would actually happen. But then you'll kick it to an open man and they won't want to shoot at all. No clue what to do with these two extremes.

      Sorry for rant.

        i dont have any issues with the way they do grades but i completely agree with the difficulty issue. they really need to make it effect the other team playing better and not make your ai teammates garbage. its forces you to play greedy and unrealistic to have success. i just dont understand their logic with it at all.

          I have 2 my player saves. Both of them with the same player named Mara Spiegelaar (yes I know Mara is female, but mara is my online alter ego).
          Why I have 2 saves is the following:
          Its way to difficult to perform well if you dont adjust some things first. Ive tried to level up on the hounest way, but most of the time i got a D-, D, or D+ team rating, and that felt not very nice. So i discovered cheat engine, to give my player an enourmus skill point boost. And now the first save I have a PG rated 99 overall who was rookie at the Raptors, start of second seasong go'd to the jazz, became champs with them, and then i traded myself to the Clippers where i am now at the All star game and are at the top spot of the western conference.
          2nd save is the same player who was rookie at the raptors, and now Im playing for the Heat, but its difficult and dont like the heat anymore, so im considering asking for a trade to knicks, lakers or jazz.
          I like the my player mode very much, and its for now the only mode i am playing so far..

            Hey,
            I got a problem with the my player mode, hope some might help me.

            I started to play 5mins per quarter and 5 mins for simulated games as well.
            So everything is working fine as long as i'm on the court with my player, but as soon as i'm on the bench the other players are making points like every 2 seconds.
            So in the end my matches end like 90 : 80 while the other cpu games have "realistic" 5 min per quarter results, like 40 : 35.

            Is there any solution (exept playing 12/12 min) ?

            If i'm trying 5 mins for quarter length and 12 min for simulated quarter length for the other matches, that probably will affect my players stats negatively compared to the other cpu players, wont it ?

            Hope somebody can help me

              I had 30pt 11 rebs 1 block in the rookie challenge and 2 pts 5 rebs in the All star game. I only played 9 mins.
              I maxed Shot Low Post and got FT to 85. Now Ball security, Stamina,and Off-Hand Dribble.

                do you guys try to max out all ratings? How often and much you spend on improving your abilities.

                  Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

                  Just experienced the All Star bug, I lost my starting job after the break. I only played 26 mins in the game after it. So, I only have 4 game left in season. My stats dropped to 17.4 ppg and 9.2 rbs.
                  I acutally dont mind it. I wanted to get through this season anyway. We are a game or 2 back from 8th seed. We pretty much have to win out or hope other teams lose. Every team we face is a playoff team. Terry is retiring after this year. I wont even try to get my starting job back. So, after I max Stamina, Ball Security and Off-Hand Dribble, I will start working on Off-Awr and Def Awr to get my OVR up.
                  I got Ball Security to 60 and it maxes at 75. I will take over 10000 XP to get to probably max it. I got Speed to 64. I will then work on Off-hand dribble first because it is cheaper, then Stamina.

                    Hey,
                    This is my first post on here, so here goes nothin':
                    I have 2 MP saves, both PG with the same name, both playing for GS Warriors, both 6'4" 200lb. One is an All Around PG in his 2nd season only playing key games and the other is my new one, playing every game.

                    My new one is a scoring PG and i want to know what to improve when i get more Skill Points?

                    Also, what to spend money on?

                    Boston Bruins-6 time Stanley Cup Winners
                    Boston Red Sox-7 time World Series Champs
                    New England Patriots-3 Super Bowls

                    P.S, I'm not from Boston, i'm in the UK :)

                      Im going to make a Rajon Rondo type my player.
                      He is my fav player.
                      So i know im going be defensive because that is how he started
                      Also im going to max out pass first
                      Then get off hand and security to 90s
                      Then put steal nd on ball D higher
                      Work on speed and quickness via drills
                      Anyone got any tips?

                        Us [Knicks] just won our First Round Play-Off Series vs. Bucks. As the 2 seed, we're now against the Celtics, who finished a 7-game series vs. Hawks.

                        Finishing the first round, my Rookie PG's stats were 26.3 PPG/9.6 APG/3.5 RPG/.632 FG%/1.000 FT%/.429 3PT%

                        I'm currently 8th in PPG/2nd in APG/1st in FG% and FT%. I've been having a very good time playing as I'm second in efficiency and Top 10 in PER.

                        Me and Stoudemire have been absolutely rolling, and having Davis in the line-up has given us a surprising spark. Fields is playing great at 15 PPG and Turiaf has added defensive intensity, high % shooting, and blocks.

                        It seems that Carmelo is playing small minutes because he's playing through major back spasms. It's unfortunate, but me, and Amar'e have been playing well together.

                        ===

                        When you have high Team-mate Chemistry, your MP seems to have some sort of "best friends" on your team. It's the guys he usually high fives with, does handshakes with, sits beside on the bench etc.

                        It's interesting to see that, but my MP seems to be best friends with Stoudemire, Melo and Fields. haha

                            I would say athletic SG?
                            Coz that is his natural position
                            And he is athletic also he can defend like a beast
                            Also when athletic SG ur second position is PG so its a win win
                            Good Luck hipe i helped.

We gonna turn this team around, return to dominance baby!
