Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

this year the eurostep only works maybe half the time you try it. most of the time you just get a weird bumping animation and shoot a horrible looking layup. much better off to do a hop step or spin layup, or even just a simple finger roll than to use the euro

I agree; the only time I use it is on the fastbreak when I have a ONE defender in front of ME, AND I am basically looking to draw a foul. It actually sucks trying to weave thru traffic in the lane during half court offense which its designed for!

However, you are on the right track with Abilities, but remember its costly (SP).

I haven't had a endorsement in about a season. However, I am one or two games away from 80 overall. Other than the achievement, is the any endorsement associated with reaching 80?

Release 14 and Jump Shot 5 is good.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

threio what dunk package you running on your big?

I like the "old school" Athletic Center.

It's simple but his good vertical and strength make it hard to block in traffic...and they look ferocious (ammonia strong!) when he throws it down!

His strength is (80), Vertical is maxed (85) and his Dunk (80) and Stand Dunk (80). I think 5 more points on his Dunk he is going to look "sick" coming down the lane...he still won't take off and dunk over defenders in the semi-circle around the basket...

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Just had another amazing game with my 6'0 defensive PG, Celtics. We played against Bulls and I had 5 points, 12 assists, 9 steals and 3 rebounds with only 1 TO. Played 24 minutes. Beat them 113-112. Even though I have my 3pt shot only 56 I managed to hit 3 pointer to even the game to 108-108 and then I was subbed out so Ray can get in and win us a game.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

PG/ATH/KNICKS/Soph/OVR: 87
The A-Train - Defend the Title!
Knicks: (31-10) , 1st Atlantic Division, 1st Eastern Conf, Power Rank: 2

....Quote goes here...Sorry can't find you to give you credit...another member recently re-evaluated his skill point distribution which gave me the idea for this action/post...SPEAK UP SO I CAN QUOTE/CREDIT YOU...

After another series of frustrating games with my shooting...I got serious...

I looked at every PG on the All Star team roster (Rose, Rondo, D. Williams, CP3 and R. Westbrook) and wrote down their Skill points for (Physical, Mental, Offense & Defense).

WOW, did I over emphasized CRAP I didn't need. Looked at the average number for each, kept more where my gameplay suits and cut the fat off the others.

The Fat: Shot Inside(90), Shot Close(83), Shot Med (90) all (-10 each), *3-pt Shot(80) (-5), Consistency(80) (-15), Shoot in Traffic (90)(-14), Off Clutch(80) (-15), Def Clutch(40) (-5), *Layup(99)(-4), *Dunk(70) (-5). Touched nothing on defense bc that's my play style and none were over-the-top. *Expensive skill points

After surgery I was able to move my Shooting Attributes to:
Fadeway: Good
Dribble Pullup: Great
Spin Jumper, Stepback, and Runner to Average.

The penalty cost me 2 Overall Ratings points (89 down to 87).

People my age call this; "Throwing money at a problem!" So, let this be a warning don't throw SKILL Points at a Problem!

Note: A-Train is an ATHLETIC playstyle Point Guard, so he started with all Shooting Abilities as POOR!

The Results: We put the league on notice, we expect to repeat as NBa Champions, LOL

Warriors (29-9); No. 1 Western Conference, we thump them at MSG, 98-77, 27pts, 2 rebs, 4 assts, 5 steals, 1 block, 2 TOs
Heat (29-12); No. 2 Eastern Conference, we defeat them at MSG, 87-80, 26pts, reb, 7 assts, 3 steals, 5 turnovers (pain - lebron jumping passing lanes).

Shooting 55% from the field, and I cannot believe the space I am getting for open looks at the basket! I am also going to the line more often.

However, after the skill review I really need to upgrade my passing (92 to 96), Off Hand Drib (92 to 96), Ball Sec (88 to 95) and Hands (88 to 96). I have noticed when playing against "Stars", routine passing and dribbling around gets a bit dangerous.

Then I can go back to Saving for my Dribbling ability (all are "Average" at the moment.)

Oh, did I just do that? (Spin Jumper)

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I just created a 6'6 220 lbs Athletic Shooting Guard, what skill points should I upgrade so my player can basically do what he wants on the court.?

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Great!

Just reloaded the first Mp i started when i bought the game. athletic pg with the knicks. overall 69. have 12 drills though to use so i'll do the dribble course trick now. get my speed and quickness to 90-95 then use the rest of the sp on other things. what do you think i should use it on?

my abilities now:
shot inside 74, shot close 74, shot medium 74, 3pt 65, free throw 74, layup 81, dunk 51, shoot in traffic 81, off hand dribbling 81, ball security, pass & hands all 80, steal 71, on-ball D 71, hustle 75, speed 88, stamina 85, vertical 91, durability 96, quickness 86 (will equip the cp3 shoes, gives me +5 quickness) def awareness 70, off awareness 75, consistency 66

only bad thing is that the save was started before any patch so the crazy trades still here, my knick team is: my player, melo, joe johnson, nene, ty lawson, michael redd, jordan hill, turiaf, balkman, walker, shelden williams & rautins

what dribble course trick?
