Got injuried.
I am getting more mins.
The Trade Logic Glitch is really hurting teams. OKC traded Durant and Westbrook for basically nothing.

Around 20 games in. 6'2 athletic PG on the Magic, traded from Houston.

Hit a game winner against the Knicks! Then management traded Dwight for Lebron...

Anyone else injured? I sat out for a week with back spasms.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I hate playing with Devin Harris and Rip Hamiliton since they got traded to Houston. I hated playing with Harris last year in 2k11, and it hasnt changed. I rather play with a "True" SG. I dont mind playing with Rip, but at times he takes bad shots.
With K-Mart being traded, someone has to be the lead scorer. I am still trying to find a consistent mid-range shot. I rarely get chances to shoot close mid-shots. I am forced to take deep 2s. I am shooting 45+%, but I dont have many chances to shoot. MY teammate grade is at 60.

Wow, so, going into the last Laker game we were ranked second in the West with our new lineup. We lose the Laker game, and theres a huge stretch of games before the next key game, during that time, I see we go on a HUGE, and I mean like 8 in a row losing streak. I'm like, damn, Zack Randolph must have gotten hurt. Get to the Lakers game and see my starting lineup.... and it went from Aaron Brooks, Jamal Crawford, Vince Carter, Zack Randolph and Gortat to OJ Mayo, Jamal Crawford, Shane Battier, Zack Randolph and Mehmet Okur . We also now have C.J. Miles, and Mario Chalmers. Aaron Brooks is gone, Vinsanity is gone, Gortat is gone, but most of all, now we are LOSING! I could get traded, but only the Wizards and the Pistons want me...

Question: If you get traded does your first billboards and magazines change teams as well? I hope not.

Wow... Just got hurt, 5 mins into the first quarter. Guess I'll end up missing the rookie challenge.

Anywhere I can learn these? I've only been able to pull the spin off once or twice and have _no_ idea how I did it

Not complaining though as most of it is because I suck and I _love_ the physicality of the game! Just want to find out how to get better :P. I've done the off-ball offense training camp, but it doesn't seem to help/work in My Player.

Practice the moves not as bad as last year I'd also suggest alternating between walking/running.

Anyway, so far, over 11 games, my averages are 24.2MPG 6.6PPG 2.7RPG 5.6APG 3.5SPG 0.7BPG. Our record is 5-6, I'm hopeful with our team, because we blow out some great teams at home, but are shakey on the road. I'm hoping as My Player improves, I can help us win more often, as I can only do but so much with a 64 overall rating at the moment.

Update: Breaking News, 15th game of the season(& I played em all), I am starting over Steve Nash. Don't know why, and I really don't care why. I know he's not injured. I'm a great PG none the less, not to mention I'm the top thief in the league(3.7SPG)

, so the more I play the better.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

One thing I'm absolutely loving playing a Center is how much your teammate grade is rewarded for playing good basketball. For instance, I love that I get good boosts to my teammate grade simply by boxing out successfully and setting a good screen. With how little I'm scoring (and having trouble rebounding as well), it's a god-send considering that boxing out is the largest way I improve my teammate score now (even at the expense of a couple rebounds).

Now I just need to figure out why Collison can outrebound me (7'2" center) even though I have like 86 rebounding and 70 vertical (if we're anywhere close to the same area, he always seems to come down with it, not me).

I think tonight I'm going to try mixing some things up though. I've been playing on 2k cam. I think I'm going to try Beluba cam and switch shooting controls to absolute. I hope also that my requested trade to the Blazers goes through. They are listed as one of the top teams interested in me now that I requested a trade to them. They are the only team I requested a trade to so I'm hopeful them and the Pacers can work something out.

I feel we should get a + for boxing out on offense as well.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I had my first 30 pt game. Didn't win, though, but I was scoring like crazy. The Knicks defense sucks. We're getting rained on by every team shooting 3's. We've lost like 4 in a row now.

I hate that the Coach sub me in at SF. My speed is like 45! I cannot guard those guys. He doesn't seem to get that.

I can't rebound either. I get like 1-2 rebounds a game.

What is the best settings to play on? I now play on Pro Sim. If I moved up would I get better results?
