Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

December 19th in my season. Some random stuff I noticed from around the league:

1) LeBron is beasting, for real - 41.9 ppg... Rose is in second at 29.4 ppg.

2) Team stats are crazy ****ed up for my team - 70.2 apg? 65.5 rpg? 23.8 spg? 28 topg? OK, the last one might be real since we suck major balls. But the rest of the stuff is way off. For one, we are averaging 93.1 ppg. Tell me how that works when you have a 70.2 apg average?

3) Darn it - Can you play the drills outside of My Player?

4) Ramon Sessions is balling, too - 18.5 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 4.2 apg in 24.8 mpg. I mention this because he's the only "surprise" player in terms of output.

5) Only 4 trades for the entire season thus far -
Grant Hill for 2 second round picks to the Wiz

Jordan Hill for Damion James

Al-Farouq Aminu and DeAndre Jordan for Thaddeus Young

Ramon Sessions and Antawn Jamison for Kirk Hinrich and Marvin Williams

6) The teams - Rockets are 4-18, Thunder are 11-14, Cavs are 12-9, Heat are 14-8 (keep in mind the stats LeBron is producing), Suns are 15-8, and Bucks are 15-8. No team has less than 8 losses.

I'm only about 5 games into my season, but playing every game I haven't seen a trade yet, so I thought maybe it was just if you sim to key games, maybe it jacks up team chem and your gm starts trading like mad?? idk just an idea.

i played the first 15 and no trades,,,,then simmed key games and it blew up...u might be onto something here!....but theres no way im playin 82 game seasons...id rather do multiple my players at different positions and burn thru seasons....

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Had my first A+ game.... found that the best thing to do is play good shot defense and make good shot selections. Got creamed by Caron Butler.... but got an A+ for the game. EVERY single time down on D he just posted me up (I'm 6'1") and backed me down and threw up a turn around jumper. He scored 40 on me.... but I just kept putting a hand in his face (well, more like a hand in his chest, but still) and got a killer grade.

@Johhnywave- Speaking of outragous stats, we average 60 apg, but the more shocking stat is my own, I play key games, which has been Lakers, Mavericks, and Spurs (I play for the Suns) and I played the one Hornets game in the N.O., anyway, we lost the first two games to Dallas, my stat line read Game 1- 13 Mins, 12 Pts, 0 asts, 2 rebs, 2 stls, Plus/Minus sits at 55 (we lost). Game 2- 16 Mins, 16 Pts, 2 asts, 3 rebs, 1 stl, Plus/Minus sits at 56 (we lost).

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I've been trying to figure out if draft pick is capped at 6, like it was in 2K11. I've heard people claim to have been drafted higher, but not seen anything reasonable.

My "discovery" so far seems to support a cap at 6th. I base this on;

I played a complete cheese game, getting 2600sp (6'4" PG), with an A+, 50 points double-double with a good amount of rebounds and steals. Also completed all objectives, obviously.

With this, I got picked 6th; just like I am if I play an A- game with about 1650-1700sp gained. This indicates to me it's capped.

Moreover, I had an interview with Raptors (5th) saying they would absolutely wanted to draft me; where as I didn't actually have an interview at all with Wizards that did draft me at 6th. This indicates to me that the game wanted me drafted 5th, but there's a cap.

Anyone have legit experience getting drafted about 6th? No, using a cheat that lets you select your draft pick does not count.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Anyone know any teams that need a SF between these teams?
I got interviewed by Charlotte, Washington, Milwaukee, Sacramento and Detroit and saved My Player file before the interview process.

Note - Every time I load the file, a team or 2 changes in the interview process at times.

Uhm, how do you save it before the interviews? :o

I know the Heat needs a SF that shows up in the 4th quarter

That's not surprising since there aren't any summer games to begin with. Do we, at least, get to see the winning team visit the white house or their victory parade or is it just a static screen?

If you win, you go to the White House. If you don't, you aren't allowed to join the people who did win

That's free agency, when your contract is up. If you have a contract, for the next season, you obviously don't get to be a free agent.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Is anybody playing on Superstar or above and finding it extremely hard to win games?

I'm a PG for the Jazz and although we don't have the best team, we have been getting blown out by 10-20 pts almost every game. We have a record of 3-8 and my teammates can't seem to hit simple close range shots.

Also I've been having like 5 turnovers a game. I'm not complaining, I like that its tough, just wondering if anyone has any tips for handling the ball better and making my teammates get open so I can dish it. Pick and roll hardly ever works for me.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

one quick question...
I am a pg at the Rockets and I was wondering if I should have Run Plays on or off, it is currently off but if I turn it on will the CPU just run the same 2-3 plays over and over again like in 2k11?

I love playing for Sacramento. They have John Salmons (a SG) as their starting 3, so they could definitely benefit from a franchise Small Forward. Their only threes are rated a 69 (Garcia) and a 60 (Greene).

Having a young, "big three" of the future in me (19), Cousins (21), and Evans (22), is exciting (Assuming they don't get traded). Not to mention having Thornton (24), Hickson (23), and Thompson (25) as young role players that will grow with the team.

I love playing with Cousins and Evans.

After 10 games, I'm officially a starter (though Tyreke is injured).

In my various bench roles, I've averaged 24 mpg, 17.2 PPG (.491 FG%, .250 3P%, .917 FT%), 5.2 RPG, 3.9 APG, 0.5 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 1.7 TOPG

We're 5-5 (9th place). I'm going to try to change from pro/default to pro/sim and hope it helps tone down the threes.
