Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Even though I'm a 6'1 point guard I'm going to save up for Blake Griffin's dunk package. It's so dope

I always save up for his dunk package.
But for my SF, I will save up for Wilkins dunk package

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Rookie year, and my PG has done it all! (almost). All-Star, All-NBA, 23/10/3 season, NBA Champion and Finals MVP!

===
In Offseason, lots of things changed... No stars moved, but lots of roster moves in the association. For us (Knicks)

GONE: Darren Collison, Tyson Chandler, Landry Fields, Shawne Williams
ACQUIRED: Keith Bogans, CJ Miles, Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Terrico White and rookie named J. Johnson

We lost a big bench spark and defensive catylast, and it will be more on me, Melo and Amar'e to step up. However, Big Z is playing great, and the oick and roll we run is incredible, thanks to my passing and his length to finish. After 3 games, he's averaging 13 PPG and 6 RPG on 74% shooting. He has brought even more efficiency at the C from Chandler, and he looks great. CJ Miles has been efficient off the bench, averaging 10 PPG on likited minutes.

With Fields gone, Douglas is now a starter. I did not like it at first, but in plays where he gets it in the perimeter, he's more willing to shoot the 3, even with a defender closing out on him. He has been accurate, and is great in transition, as I can dole it to him when he gets to the arc, and i know he will shoot it, and make it. He came uo with a big game recently, and scored 21 points in a Knicks W.

My PG is becoming the more efficient player we saw in the playoffs, and is currently averaging 20 PPG/13 APG/4 RPG on 59% shooting, and 71% from the arc. It seems like more teams have accustomed to my PG's post game, which makes me have to get smart shots for myself. Got close to 2 trip-dubs this season so far.

I started a create a legend with kyrie Irving and I'm having a blast with it. Irving has string offensive gme to start off with I will try to improve his defense. We are 2-1. Beat Boston. Blew out the raptors and lost by 10 to the clippers. Paul and Griffen tore me up. They did whatever they wanted inside the paint.

This will be a challenge. This Cavs team is. So bad. Irving is the only guy that cn create open shots for the entire team. So far I've averaged 35 with Irving and I have to initiate the entire offense. They play Parker way too much and don't play boobie at all. It is fun so far thiugj.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

PG/ATH/KNICKS/2nd/20gms/OVR: 85
The A-Train - Defend the Title!
Knicks: (14-6) , 1st Atlantic Division, 3rd Eastern Conference

Key Game(s) - Rival Matchup

VS. Heat: We don't need to discuss the high end cheese delivered to our doorsteps when going against Lebron, D-Wade and Bosh. Carmelo and the A-Train had to put up 20 a piece in the 1st half as Stoudemire was rimming everything from the field (Knicks: 48; Heat: 46)

We would break free w 5:46 to play in the 4th, our reserves did a fantastic job for 2 minutes, then we traded baskets until a little less then 2 minutes. A inbounds drive from the A-Train to the basket for 2 free throws would push the lead to 6. After a Bosh jumper, I slowed the pace and Landry Fields came thru and buried a deep 3 to seal the deal.

Knicks: 95, Melo (27pts, 10 reb), Stoud (10pts 8 Rebs), A-Train (28pts, 5 Assts, 3 Rebs, 1 Steal, 4 TOs)
Heat: 88, Lebron (36pts, 6 reb), D-Wade (16pts 7 assts), Bosh (16pts, 4 Reb)

Note: The A-Train is "big time" now, , in the 2nd half Lebron was running to double team him leaving Stoudemire wide open which gave us the aforementioned cushion at 5:46.

Get out the way, Mario Chalmers, the A-Train is coming!

Skill Points: Hit NBA PoW and 500 Career Assists which allowed me to move my 3-pt Shot to (85)(+4 Jordan Shoes). Now, I want to save EVERYTHING until game 30, so I can deal with some Shooting Abilities.

*My rant the other night was correct. It's the Miami Heat causing the crowd confusion Glitch. The first load I noticed Lebron doing his "chalk thing" at the scorers table and sure enough our crowd starting booing me relentlessly OVER the commentary.

After I blew my top, got a ice tea and re-loaded, it stopped. Down the stretch our crowd was booing Lebron, Wade and Bosh relentlessly!!! For now on if I see Lebron chalking up in my arena, hitting the Quit will be right after!!!

FINISH ON A GOOD NOTE - THIS WAS A GREAT GAME TO PLAY!!!

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

End of 2nd year, I won 6th man of year with 13.5 pts, 5.3 rebs, 1.3 steals, 37% FG, and 85% FT. We faced beat IND in the 1st round 4-2. We loss to Bulls in game 7.
I got Consistency to 83. That was higher than I expected to get to finish off this year. But making it to 2nd round, helped get it up there. I got Speed and Stamina to 85, Quickness and Ball Security to 86,and Layup to 88. Depending on how I do in games, I should be able to get Consistency to 90 after my 2nd key game. I will stop at 93. Then I will focus on Shot Med.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

smokeyvol - 15 games deep & 65 rating I took over Billups starting role in NY (old rosters)... Personally I was enjoying the 6thman role.

Champion8877 -i know, now on the T-wolves Beasley is averaging like 17 PPG, so it will feel odd when i take over his starting spot. but still im glad i was traded here cuz it is more realistic to start over Beasley than to start over G-Force

smokeyvol - I agree.... Minutes should be harder to earn for a player rated between 60-70...

Not only if our players arent performing well, but alot of times the starters are playing well and we shouldnt able to overtake someone

My SG started ahead of Monta Ellis (83) on the Warriors at 18 games, despite the fact he asked to be traded twice (game 5 & 12)! I moved to Wizards don't mind starting over Nick Young he is a (73) and gets alot of minutes at SF.

1. DITTO: No way we should start at less than 20 games w player rate between 60-70.
2. I agree the Overall Ratings should be equal to or higher than the Starter for you to get the promotion.

Of course injuries occur, and maybe at some point your player is higher rated in the Alternate position so he gets the start there instead. ie; You play small forward instead of power forward BC your OVR is higher than the current SF.

3. Poor Teammate Grades and failure to meet Objectives should penalize your minutes and opportunity to start.

4. I love playing the 6th man, pushing progression back would make this alot more interesting.

Assuming at some point they can fix the erratic passing, committing turnovers would also mean you sit your butt down.

5. If they incorporated some of these things you wouldn't see so many threads of wanting to be TRADED, LOL!!! Yea, they need to expand the Draft, so teams needing a specific position would interview first, then teams who have a veteran up for Free Agency next. I could handle 6-8 interviews in the begining.

I love playing the 6th man role. Especially with my SF. His skill is a great fit for that role. Good Perimeter Defender, Athleticism, and Ability to finish around rim/FT. Once I get a jumper, I will able to breakout more

INDEED; nothing more interesting than coming of the bench and sparking a run. If your a Def Specialist maybe coach puts you in to stop a hot shooter.

I could handle 10 gms of little minutes (prospect), 30-40 games of (6th man), and get my first start at 60 games leaving me just 22 games as the Starter barring injuries. Maybe a start here or there when the Starter's performance fails or when I get close to surpassing him in the OVR rating category.

Now how those numbers add up for guys like you that like to play key games at the higher difficulties is a math problem for the experts...

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Despite my 28pt, 5 reb, 6 assist, 3 steal and block game, my 7 TOs was a key factor in our loss to Knicks in the 1st game of season.
I got Consistency to 92. I will stop at 93. Then I will work on Shot Med. I am glad that I worked on consistency before Shot Med range. Because consistency is more expensive , when I get my Med range up I will able to make shoot it consistently, and I already had ways to score. Once I get my Shot Med to 80+, I will start taking jumpers. It will almost completely change my half court offense up. I wont have to drive as much as I am now and that will lower TOs. Only career milestone I think I can get this year is 1000 career rebounds. I am 180 away and going by my average per game, it will take around 34+ games(both key and regulars games) and it will give my 10000XP. By that time, I should have Shot Med where at a comfortable place and will be able to boost a ability. It will most likely be Crossover.
After Shot Med, I will boost Off/Def Awar so I can raise OVR and sim stats and bigger contract. I am definitely open to stay here mainly because of Dwight. But, we are 8+ mil over cap, due to Hedos big contract. But, since he just signed a 1 year 1-3 mil deal after this year, our cap will be good. It mainly depends on what we do for backcourt of the future. I like our frontcourt and depth of Me, Dwight, Big Baby, Anderson and Hedo. But we HAVE to do something with our backcourt. Vince Carter and Nelson(loss his job) are decling and I HATE playing with Ish Smith and he is on trade rumors.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

If I am consistently getting 21/13/5 my 2nd season with an 80 OVR player, should I kick uo the difficulty from All-Star to Superstar? (21 points, 13 assists, 5 rebounds, 55% shooting)

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I agree with some of the comments on the last page. When I was on the Bucks, I enjoyed being the sixth man behind Stephen Jackson. But when I was traded to the Bobcats, I was starting over Gerald Henderson in my second game on the team! That meant if I had stayed in Milwaukee, I would have started over Jackson! Kinda unrealistic, even if I was picked 10th overall.

[smokeyvol]

Halfway through year three (just playing key games). Unfortunately the Warriors took a team option on me but the team is getting better. Should land a big contract next... What dunk package should I buy? Also, if you buy multiple ones can you mix and match your dunks?

Wow, a 300+ thread dedicated to MP and the OS mods don't see the need for a MP section? Hmmmm....

I'm a late bloomer to the MP game mode, but I love the level of detail you guys are using to describe your experiences.

I guess I'll chime in soon enuff.
