I play on Pro, and have since 2k12 came out. I played All-Star in 2k11, but this year AS is broken so I play Pro and I have no problem with it.
I think Pro is perfect for my player. Obviously in like association or quick play when you control the entire team, Pro is way too easy so you use Superstar or HoF. But in My Player it is perfect.
I have tried all the difficulties on My Player. On each difficulty I was able to easily put up 40+ points and 10+ assists. The difficulties played no difference in my personal performance and my ability to score.
The only difference the change in difficulty made was the higher ones made my teammates brick almost every shot, and take contested shots. And it made the other teams CPU drain 65-70% of their shots no matter how good of D I played.
On pro both my team and the cpu make anywhere from 40-55% of shots, which is pretty realistic. While on HoF your team will usually shoot 30-40% and the cpu will shoot 60-70%, both of those are unrealistic to occur every game. Sure some nights a team will have a horrible shooting night and shoot 35% or they might have a great night and shoot 65%, but its not something that happens everygame like on HoF.
My PG is on the Magic now and played on the Knicks last season. And on those teams we almost always beat the teams we were supposed to like the Cavs, Bobcats, Bucks, Wizards, etc. and lost to teams like the Heat, Bulls, Celtics, Thunder, Lakers, etc.
Don't get me wrong, we lost games here and there to bad teams we should have beat, we lost twice the the Nets last year that i can remember. And we did beat the Bulls, Heat, and other good teams a few times. But for the most part it was pretty good about who we beat and who we lost to.
Of course this is all just my personal opinion. If you wanna play HoF and carry your team on your back and have to cheese the whole game just to win, then be my guest. It's just in my personal experience with the game, you get a more realistic team basketball experience on lower difficulties in My Player. But based off of some peoples posts on here, they have no desire to play realistic basketball and would rather cheese and score all of their teams points(I'm talking to anyone who averages more than 35 ppg on a season).
