Lol, they still have a team option, that's why, it's part of your rookie contract, the game just doesn't show it for some strange reason.

Then, it's another glitch?

Our 4th year is suppoesed to be the 2nd year team option but somehow 2k turn it to be player option. (Since, we can choose to accept this lowball or to get more from other teams) Seriously, I wanted to stay with my team but I couldn't refuse around $12m more I will get if I choseto leave. Therefore, I left the team.

I'm sick of my current teammate in MO (In my 7th season, coach start generated center rate 69 with 30% FG who can't hit anything over Kevin Love who is PF/C rate 84 and was a starter at my team during the last 3 years) I stop playing MP temporarily for now. Currently working on Create a legend with Derrick Rose.

When you play create a legend, do you have to use an existing NBA player?

If so, can't you just edit the rosters before you start CAL and give him all 99's technically?

Also, do you only control that player as you do in my player?

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

What are Melo and Amar'e PPG?

I think that drop in FG% you have is because the Opponent AI plays better--including defense. It tells me you could be taking better shots, but you are shooting a decent % for a guard, still.

I'm a turnover machine, because I'm handling the ball on 90% of our plays, which constitue 90% of our possessions. Help?

Interesting to see how we compare and constrast as Knicks PGs! Just pulled something from www.nba2k.com:

PG/ATH/KNICKS/Soph/OVR: 90
The A-Train - Defend the Title!
Knicks: (40-20) , 1st Atlantic Division, 2nd Eastern Conf, Power Rank: 3

<img src="http://media.nba2k.2ksports.com/screenshot/119f531f.jpg" height="475px" width="710px" border="0" />

Being a reserve is not too bad.

1. Melo 25.4ppg (.526) & Stoudemire 15.3ppg (.537); BOTH in the top 5 in Field Goal percentage. Stoudemire is a concern, the A-Train is really eating into his looks and points. Stoudemire is a 20+ scorer.

2. Yes, there are a few shots that I am not getting away with at this Difficulty. I need to EURO step (L2) a bit more at this level on my drives, getting my shot blocked a bit more in the paint.

Shot selection is actually pretty good, but, the swings are incredible. I have gone from 17% in the 1st quarter to closing at the mid 40s. I am also @ the All Star game break, and every player I have created shoots poorly around this time of the season.

The AI thinks I should be tired at this point in the season even though my Stamina is (97). This is why I always harp on don't keep spending Skill Points to fix a "short term" problem. During this period it got to the point where I could not hit a jump shot period! The last 4 games I have been just dunking on drives (anger management)! I wish I would of remembered to record the Shots Graph in the Gametrack so I could show you the nonsense.

FG% - Heat - 30, Suns - 50, Raptors - 40, Sixers - 62 (my jump shot finally returned)

The excessive bumping has returned and of course you know who ends up with the ball w 5 seconds left. Also at this difficulty the foolishness has returned as my own teammates get in my way blowing open shots and drives to the lane...and to emphasize the madness, the referee ran in front of me while shooting a WIDE OPEN 3!

3. Turnovers not so much, I am pretty careful with the ball, however, I have noticed that the "hail mary" on the fastbreak is a NO-NO at this Difficulty.

On half-court offense there is a lot more passing lane jumping and your teammates fumble more and perform those perfect "draw plays" for the opposing team.

I think one game I had 9 turnovers which I promptly adjusted my positioning on the court while passing. My Ball Security at (81) was a real liability, Dribble off feet and getting stripped in the lane, I had to boost it to (91) to get it to stop.

4. My stellar defense went by the wayside moving up. I had to boost my On-Ball D by 9 points to (94) and my Def Awareness to (88). This still is not enough to fully disrupt the opponents offense which is really part of my playstyle. The only thing I am disrupting is my playing time by committing reach in fouls!

5. You got to run the plays to their completion in order for your teammates to consistently score. Freelancing will really bog them down at this level. No more just doing what I want on the floor!

6. RANT: Heat 108; Knicks 56
Just Shear F... Insanity!!! We shoot 32% from the field in the 1st Half; do not score until 4:32 left in the 4th Quarter (4QT-12pts). I couldn't take it anymore and fouled myself out!

7. Player Card; Just the last three showed, have no idea why the Heat & Hawks didn't show. The first 5 on Superstar I was not online, fearing the "BOOING" would come back!

Heat: 17pts, 6-20, FT: 5-5, 2 reb, 2 asst, 1 block, 7 TO, 5 fouls
Hawks: 21pts, 7-15, FT: 6-7, 3 reb, 14 assists, 3 stl, 1 blk, 3 TO, 4 fouls

Nevertheless, I am glad you pushed me, this is the level I should be playing at.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Who is your starting PF?

Anthony Randolph, listed as PF/C, is my current starting PF. (His rating is 89 in the 7th season, was 69 in the 1st season) Randolph was my starting C during my 4th season when he was at 82. Love was a starting C during my 5th and 6th season while randolph starting at PF.

With new roster update, Love is at 86 but I started my MP with the old roster. (Love start at 81 and didn't develop more than 84)

6th Season:

<img src='http://i1188.photobucket.com/albums/z404/airnoname/Pics/Private%20Album/2012-01-31214158.jpg'>

7th Season:

<img src='http://i1188.photobucket.com/albums/z404/airnoname/Pics/Private%20Album/2012-02-12150653.jpg'>
Note: Ratings was up and down due to morale. On my last save file, Randolph is at 89 again (+1 from 88) and Love right now is at 75 (-8 due to being downgraded to 6th man) Seriously, Love has $15m/year long term contract so why bench him? (if the argument is he is actually PF, I don't know why my team didn't have a problem to start him (or Randolph) at C during my 4th-6th season)

Love still outscore and outrebound Wong from the bench. I can't stand C who shoot around 30%. My bench is getting weaker and weaker every year too. (Lost Rubio rate 86 at the start of my 5th season, he is 90 right now)

Ok, I see, good job posting the picture of your roster, made everything clear. By the looks of things, your team might make a trade. But is your team playing bad or do you just hate your C, because he's trash?

Just hate my center. Seriously, 50+ games and he shoot around 30%FG. Average something like 4ppg and 5rpg as a starter.

For one thing, I was with Bulls for 2 years and TWolves for 4 years but my teams didn't make any single trade at all. Several players (For example: Beasley) being unhappy for a long time and requested a trade but no team take them until they walked away as FA. My team got new players from FA and draft. (My current starting PG and Lebron came from FA while my starting center came from the draft)

I think if ur team keep winning and has no major injuries, AI will not make a trade. (Another stupid glitch, after 2-3 seasons, there will be no injuries anymore) I hope my team make a trade to fix unbaclance roster but 6 years and no trade at all. (Besides my trash Center,my team has 3-4 short PG/SG, height around 6 feet, rated 52-60 as role and bench players. Don't know why my team keep drafting short PGs 2-3 years in a row)

Yea I know what you mean about the team doin g good and not making any trades, my teams have done the same the last couple years. Yea, your team definitely could use some more size. What kind of shots does your C take(not that there's much you can do to stop him), must be midrange jumpers to be shooting that low of a percentage

Most shots are "in the paint"
Not sure why his overall rating is so high (comparing to his performance). His rating for "shot inside," "shot close" and "shot in traffic" are pathetic for a center. (can't remember exactly how hi but they are lower than center's average by wide margins) His midrange is worst but he rarely shoot from midrange anyway.
