    Matchup Key Games will open up once you become a starter...

      Will you always get drafted in the first round no matter what or if you just have a horrible game at the Rookie Showcase will you go in the second round

I never see an option to upload to the website. Also, my latest MP isn't updating up there either.
        This is frustrating because I wanted to post a couple screenshots with my updates, and maybe create some banners/graphics in photoshop of my players.
        You have to link up with your http://www.nba2k.com/login account. Once online and linked you can upload screenshots to your account and share them.

        The videos rarely upload.

        2. Once you build up your Teammate Chemistry and increase skills you will get the ball more often. However, make sure you are completing your assignments on offensive plays (assuming you have the Plays On), so they play doesn't break down. Once the play breaks down the AI will go into one-one mode or just freeze until the play clock gets to 5 seconds.

        Always 1st round. I have "tanked" the Showcase by not attempting a shot and went to the Trailblazers in the 1st round.

        I use "Brave" ; really easy to time the release, IMHO.

          I'm really thinking of asking for a trade from the Jazz.

          This team really sucks, and the uniforms don't help matters. I'm thinking about requesting a trade to another team... top 3 on my list would be the Magic, Spurs, and the Celtics.

            just started a new PF with updated rosters and got drafted to the bucks, ****ing nightmare now with ellis and jennings combining to go 10-40 every damn game. gonna request a trade but idk where to yet. prefer bad teams as i enjoy the challenge, and i just had a sf on the wizards so don't wanna go there, or charlotte. thinking maybe detroit, or pheonix, new orleans maybe? i dont need the ball every time down the floor but i don't wanna have to fight to get touches like in milwaukee.

              Ray Allen. So easy to time. I always either get a Perfect or a Slightly early. And my FT is 91.

                      For a SF, I found that setting a huge amount of screens for the ballhandler and then rolling off is the most reliable. Also, I've noticed that a lot of defenders lay off a surprising amount if you are just inside the arc. It still counts as a medium shot, and it's fairly easy to throw a move and go up for a shot.
                      "You honestly don't really feel it when the shots are going down. You don't ever get the goose bumps until the fans start to appreciate what you're doing."

                        I use Rip's FT, pretty easy to get down
                        Blake Griffins' FT is also easy to use too

                          I've always stuck with the Nate Robinson FT, but seeing as my FT is at 70, and I'm only making roughly 60% of them, I'm assuming I should change that up. I'm always getting a FT of "Late 66%" or something of that nature. No matter when I choose to release it. So I think I'll go ahead and try out Brave.

                          And definitely, I prefer a challenge when it comes to MP as well. I love being on Charlotte. My last MP I had to quit due to the lack of challenge - we were like 59-11 before I decided to begin a new one.

                              1. People mostly post their own experiences in this thread, as opposed to a Q&A format. You'll gain a lot just by reading the whole thing.

                              2. You posted this follow-up only a half hour after posting your question.

                              3. Turn on the Run Plays option and take advantage of plays where you can come off screens for open looks.

                                There are no easy ways to get open shots just opportunities:

                                1. Off picks (call for pick)
                                2. dribble moves, pump fakes and fake passes
                                3. shoot in transition on fastbreaks
                                4. Call for the ball while cutting in open space to the basket
