Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

because some people want to finish their my players career and dont have the time to play 1000 games

I dont have time to play 1000 games but IMO building his stats then simming (if you desire) would be the way to do it.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

How much money have you guys been able to build up? Playing only key games, I'm in my 4th year and have a little over 5 mil. I ask because of the training camps, so far none of them have been worth the money, but at 5 mil you can do Scottie Pippen's and it will give +1 spin layup/dunk which is a good amount of skill points. Anybody else been able to do any of the higher training camps?

Just finished my Staples Center debute as backup PG for the Lakers in a blowout win over the Pacers. Stats read as followed

K. Bryant- 20 Pts, 4 Rebs, 2 Asts, 3 Stls on 8-25 shooting. Kobe struggled from the floor all game

P. Gasol- 14 Pts, 11 Rebs, 2 Asts, 3 Stls, 2 Blks

R. Hunter- 50 Pts (30 in garbage minutes of Fourth Quarter), 6 Rebs, 6 Asts, 2 Stls, 5 TO on 20-30 shooting including 10-17 from deep (all threes were in fourth quarter)

Overall, we dominated the Pacers throughout, going into halftime up 20, finished the third up 34 and finished with a final score of 135-69 (Crazy blowout). Granger was their lead scorer with 34 Pts on 13-24 shooting and Josh Smith added 19 on 9-23 shooting.

Would you like some wine with that cheese? Well here ya go...

I like the idea of putting the legends in the mode. But is anyone of the center players intrigued by the fact of facing up against Kareem, Hakeem and Pat?

I personally don't see myself containing any of them.

Also, I think Ronnie2K said the auto-generated rookies are in MyPlayer, they jsut don't get that much minutes, and that he would look into finding a way for them to get more minutes.

He's wrong, they aren't.

Either way, I just started a new My Player, since I got a roster with the rookies downloaded. Will just correct their info with Reditor once the official info is out.

6'4" Athletic PG (since I finally figured out how to make layups), drafted by the Sacramento Queens. (Holla, Shaq)

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Well, I think it's about time for me to bump up the difficulty level. Started My Player (a 7'2" center ala Arvydas Sabonis) but am starting to kill halfway through my first season. I'm 68/69 overall but have had three high scoring games in a row (dropped 38 pts against Dwight Howard). A lot of those points were from the post (finally getting used to the controls). So yeah.... too much Cheese for me .

Going to bump it up tonight and hopefully get back to feeling like a rookie again :P.

Lol, I don't drink wine, but hey, when the opportunity to put cheese on my burger is there for the taking, I'll take it. It's not my fault. It was garbage time and we had some unknown people like Lance Cato, Claude Andrew, Luke Walton's utter garbage and Vince Carter's "I can't make a shot because I'm not a Raptor anymore" *** in the game. They set the stage for me and I delivered, lol.

But thanks for the wine anyway, it'll be nice for my after party in New Orleans, they'll be cheese there too if we blow them out. Cheese platers all around.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

What do I got to do to get the ball inbounded to my SG?

Look, I'm not one who wants to run point from the 2. In fact, I much prefer playing off the ball since my physical stats and dribbling are low right now.

But for **** sake, I'm the best free throw shooter on the team, there's 6 seconds left and we know we're going to get intentionally fouled, the PG is covered by 3 defenders, my guy is literally standing 2 feet in front of the inbounder, I'm calling for the ball, and he waits until the center or power forward runs all the way back to down the court to pass to them.

What the ****? This happens every single time he's unable to get the ball to the PG.

I think it has to do with the team you're on. How that team is set to run. I know on the Lakers I end up playing a lot off the ball because Kobe usually walks it down (the triangle offense is AMAZING!).


Well kids, too much cheese isn't good for you.... let's look at the stats from my second game as a Laker shall we...

K. Bryant- 35 Pts, 1 Reb, 7 Asts, on 16-25 shooting

P. Gasol- 10 Pts, 8 Rebs, 2 Asts, 1 Stl on 4-10 shooting

A. Bynum- 16 Pts, 6 Rebs, 1 Blk on 7-16 shooting

R. Hunter- 10 Pts, 2 Rebs, 6 Asts, 1 Stl, 0 Blks 4 TO on 5-10 shooting (4 of those came from the post)

We lost to the Hornets by 15 by a score of 100-115, but the worst stat of the night is 1 Stl and 0 Blks, reason being my matchup's stats looked as such...

E. Boykins- 17 Pts, 2 Rebs, 10 Asts, 1 Stl, 1 TO on 8-16 shooting.

He shot 16 times, and I blocked none of them. A 6'1" guy couldn't block a 5'5" guy. Guess all of that hoisting threes in the last game came back to bite me in the behind. And I also see why the Hornets passed on trading for me and just kept Boykins for this year.... He out played me by a long shot.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Just dropped a career high 38 and 12 (took like 31 shots to get there though) and held Dirk to just 8 points and 4 rebounds (got him in foul trouble early) for a big (and rare) win for the Wizards, and my first player of the game in my career.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Finally got my triple-double. 20 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists. Took me right to the end of January to get it - January 31.

They keep trading on my team. 76ers are now:
OJ Mayo
Reggie Bullock (my guy)
Paul George
David Lee
Andrew Bogut

Antonio Daniels
Andrei Kirilenko
Al-Farouq Aminu
Larry Sanders
Spencer Hawes
Deandre Jordan
Andris Biedrins

Which I sort of like except Lee is utter ****, as well as Hawes. And instead of dunking the ball when under the rim, Bogut likes to pass it out for some odd reason. Even on open looks.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Went back to my center and with a decent stat boost things are looking up. Thre straight 20+ point games, with 3 blocks. My rebounding is weak but that's me. Our awful skid ended and we have won 3 in a row. I'm starting to figure my center out. I Macedonia his mid range out at an 85. I have my standing dunk to a solid 83. Low post scoring up to a 65 that and shot close and block will be the next three upgrades I focus on.

I wish Roy won you skill points. I'd have also liked to have seen some progression in the offseason.

But for now I'm really happy with my guy. Once I get low post and shot close brought up I'll be unstoppable.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Who knew Nick Young was such a heavy scorer, Wizards the worst team in my player with a record of 4-22 so far played my bucks (18-8).
1st Quarter Nick Young drops 6 3s
2nd quarter Nick Young drops 4 3s
10- 12 from 3 at the half
3rd Quarter Nick Young drops 6 3s
4th Quarter Nick Young Drops 5 3s
21-27 from 3s...It's so painful to watch.
It wasn't my player guarding him but i wish i had so i could of possibly stopped some of those attempts.
And yeah we also lost the game
