Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Yeah, my bad, and I know but I actually enjoy playing it. My first AS game I dropped 29 pts, no defense? That's me... lol

Yeah, also the team-mate grade during the ASG ruins the fun. It's supposed to be a pick-up game for fun of the best in-game players in the Association...not a defensive, serious affair like the game makes it out to be. Would be cool to have a 3-Point Contest or those other programs in All-Star Weekend though.

Playing with those players makes me drool at how good me and Dwight could be together though...

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I just had a very frustrating game against OKC. I really dont like playing against them. Besides 4 TOs in the 2nd and shot being off, It wasnt really me. It was simply they were making their shots and we werent. There was a point where we were being blowed out by 40 pts.
I got Def AWR to 78 and Off AWR to 77. I got my OVR to 81. I have 3 key games left. I really have to ball out the next 3 games. I want to get my over at least over 85 before my contract is up.

There are 2 teams I am hoping offers me a contract, Pacers or the Hornets. I dont think I have to worry about Cap space because the Grizzlies are 27 mil over the cap in my career. I really want to go to Pacers because they are an athletic defensive team that has good size. The only thing is George is a FA like me. He is the main reason I want to go there. If not Pacers, then Hornets are my 2nd option. They have some good perimeter defenders. But, with Eric Gordon not being there, I will have to be the main scorer.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I just created a NEW MP.. Point Guard 6'6 210 lb drafted to Utah.. I thought Utah would be fine for a point guard to get assists to Al Jefferson and company down low posting up..

Turns out the team can't shoot and Al Jefferson is allergic to my Point Guard cause he posts up on the opposite block of where I bring the ball every time. When I'm subbed out the Jazz go down by double digits in 2 minutes. I guess I should stick to my 6'8 small forward My Player game playing for Indiana who keeps getting fouls called when ball handlers stumble out of bounds

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

End of my rookie season. I got drafted by GS..but got traded to Bobcats. I wanted to go to the bobcats to win a championship for them. At the beginning of the playoffs I had 20 drills and did all of them. My overall increased from 63 to 66. I maxed out my threes and shot in traffic. That must of did something because in the regular season I averaged 14 ppg, but now i average 29 ppg in the playoffs.

*I only play Key games
*I'm a 6'9 SF 3pt specialist

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

What are your thoughts on this:

So when I bought the game (early February) I created a MP. I played with him up until the day before the trade deadline in real life. Seeing as I'm a pretty big Association guy as well, I only got until the beginning of the playoffs with this player, a 78 OVR Athletic PG for the Heat.

However, when the trade deadline came around in the NBA, some teams ended up changing pretty drastically (although it doesn't appear to be that drastic at all.) Basically what I'm saying is would you rather continue playing with a My Player that you've got pretty well established and play on inaccurate rosters. Or would you rather begin a new player who you've yet to establish simply because you'll have accurate rosters?

I'm lost here, and I'm unsure of whether or not I should attempt to continue my 78 OVR MP or not. Seeing how you guys feel.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I personally would start a new one because I'm a sucker for things being "right", especially if you're planning on playing for at least a few seasons. If not, might as well carry on with the old one.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Big offseason move for the Bobcats! Chris Paul just signed with us for 5 years.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Don't the rosters get bounced around by the game regardless so you'd only play one season with your MP ever?

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I just had my least frustrating loss against Heat. IT was a close game throughout the entire game. I started slow, but got hot in the 2nd. I had 29 pts(12-22), 6 rebs, 3 steals, and 2 blocks. We loss due to my teammates getting their pockets swiped alot late in the game.
The only really frustrating thing about the game was the last possession. Even though we were down 7 with 18 secs left, I wanted to at least have urgency. My teammate held the ball until the last sec and bricked. Other than, it was one of my favorite games. Most of our games have been blowout losses.
We are officially out of playoffs. I got Off AWR to 82 and Def AWR to 83. My OVR is 82. I have 3 total games and I might play each of them since I am trying to get my OVR to 85.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Figured out the only way I'm going to get assists with the Jazz is the slash and dish to Jefferson or Millsap.. otherwise they just turn and dribble 5 times and try a hook shot. In 8 games since I created this PG I am averaging 15.2 pts 5 boards and 2 assists.. just barely 45% shooting but Doris Burke said in the last game I should be a starter haha

Funny that Devin Harris is shooting 32% from 3-point but when I'm in the game will just stand and dribble at the top of the offense until the shot clock gets to 5

Soon as I typed this and been through 3 quarters of a game, shooting 2 of 15 1 board 3 assists 2 steals in a 72-49 Clippers lead.. wipe open B+ or better shot grades rimming out over and over

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

The Utah Jazz are very frustrating to be apart of... I'll leave it at that. lol

= Devin Harris

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I'll probably jump on the trade request at this rate 5 assists is the most I can get in any game since they never shoot after a pass, and more often than not I'm still only the shooting guard that guards one guy then the blue arrows say no, you are supposed to guard the guy hitting a 3 or layup right as they shoot.. that's still the only real frustrating part to me.. I'm used to losing in My Player now, but losing half a teammate grade because the game switched the guy I'm guarding when they shoot sucks

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I played my 1st non key game with my SF and had a great Game and win(1st in a WHILE). I had 32 pts, 10 assists, 4 rebs, 1 block, and 6 steals. Only negative about my game was my 8 TOs. Alot of them could have been prevented(3 24 sec violations).
If we played like this most of the season, then we would be in the playoffs. I have 1 more game in the season, my last as a Magic player.
I got Off AWR to 89 and Def AWR to 90. It got my OVR to 84. So, it was a good decision to play the extra game. Like my last two games, I have to ball out so I can get my OVR to 86. The last few games have been good(tight) games.
I am looking forward to the offseason. I plan on saving and exiting my last game with a few secs left because since my last game is our last game and we wont make playoffs it will similate the whole playoffs and wont let my stop. So if I want to change something, I can just start the game up with only a few secs left instead of playing the entire game.
Im 2nd in minutes per game(36 mins),4 in scoring for SF(18.2), T-2nd for Steals with 2.4(1st for SFs), 85% FT, 5.9 rebs.

Something I want to do next season is boost Def Reb, continue boosting block, Strength, Off Clutch, and pass. But, 1st I will boost Dunk. I have the 5+ Dunk shoes on. I want to take those off and put on the 5+ Med shoes. I am a while away from getting my LPW and my custom shoes. I just dont want to take them off though

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

It's great how the real life Jazz are the #3 scoring team in the NBA yet they never see 40 points at halftime in 'My Player' for me.. trade requested after 10 games total with them

It's so bad that the 'Trade Him' chants started in Utah..
