    Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

    Just beat the pistons 99-95, and the Phoenix Suns are 6-1, the only loss coming in the second game of the season to the LA Lakers. MY PG is getting 24 minutes a game, and I just got my 2k mag cover and "Come Fly With Us" billboard. This game is easily the sweetest sports game ive ever played, and the only real problem is how hard it is to rebound. I average 1 per game as a 6'2 athletic guard. Also, I thought carter would be selfish and just jack shots up, but so far he's a BEAST. averaging 25 a game, hes instant buckets and has looked the carter of old.

          It depends on what position you play, and who Blake Griffin's backup is.

          BTW can people help out here http://www.operationsports.com/forum...2-edition.html I'm trying to get it filled in.

                Man, Joe Johnson kicks my *** up and down the court in this game. I've played 74 games this season (and I've played every single one+the allstar game and rookie showcase) and no player is a bigger pain than him.

                You leave a little space and he drains everything. Range is 3ft+ the 3pt line. Gets to the rim and dunks on people on the break. Then on defense he's quicker than my guy and he and I are the same height so I have no advantage there.

                For me, the three toughest SGs (since it's my position) I've had to guard are:
                1) Joe Johnson - Explained.
                2) Manu Ginobili - Gets me foul trouble every time and rips me like I have no handle.
                3) JR Smith - Because not only is his range insane, but he takes every partial opening he can shoot. Although he's crazy hot/cold in this game. Like real life, I guess.

                And I'll give a shout out to Durant. Had to guard him in the allstar game and he lit me up like nothing. I only played 6 minutes and I swear he dropped 15.


                Playoff race is close in the East...
                1 seed - Bulls at 47-24
                2 seed - Heat at 47-24
                3 seed - Bucks at 48-26
                4 seed - 76ers (my team) at 47-27
                5 seed - Magic at 44-28
                6 seed - Celtics at 44-29
                7 seed - Hawks at 44-29
                8 seed - Raptors at 38-34
                --
                Knicks still in the race at 38-35. Pacers (34-38) and Cavs (31-41) are technically not eliminated yet, but they aren't making it.

                4 games separate the #1 seed from the #7 seed.

                76ers have won 35 of their last 37 games after starting 12-25.

                Cool anecdote: before my last game, which was a playoff seeding key match up against the Hawks, the announcers mentioned about the turnaround; being, how we started poorly and have been on an amazing stretch since. Thought that was rather perceptive of the game.

                  Yeah man, Joe Johnson is tough. I'm on the 76ers too and he totally takes me out of my game because I work so hard to contain him.

                    UGH. I found another hitch in the AI. Apparently it only knows to put the worst player in reserve. We signed another PG from free agency which made sense because we only had John Wall, but that made Mehmet Okur our 13th man. Mehmet Okur may not be rated high, but sitting him on the bench gives us a 3 man rotation (again) at the 4 and 5.... buuuuut we've got a combined total of 7 SGs and SFs. Some of which hardly ever play but Okur saw a lot of quality minutes and played well. I realize that AI is very tough to code, but c'mon. This really sucks.

                    ...The good news is that it's past the trade deadline so I don't have to worry about us losing any key players, but I'm TERRIFIED of what may happen in free agency. I can't imagine how many times I may have to reset for our GM to resign Tyrus (PAY THAT ****ING MAN) Thomas, and not to trade away John Wall for Park Place, a stick of bubble gum, and a wild draw 4.

My friend threw his team under the bus after a loss and the fans started chanting "Trade him now, trade him now...." and "Lets go traitor(clap,clap,3xclap) let's go traitor...." he couldn't ever get it to stop....he ended up getting traded....

                              Carmelo with me in the Clippers. Going quite well so far. Unfortunately, he went down with an injury in the 3rd quarter against the Warriors. He left with 32 points. I decided to take over the game and finished with 52 points 18 assists. Carmelo is out for 2-4 weeks and I am by myself. The next game was a key game against the Nets. I took over again scoring over 50 again and hitting the game winning buzzer!!!!!!! My first game winner of my career!!!!!!

                                For anyone looking to put points into their free throw attribute just a heads up. Going past 90 is a waste. If you miss the perfect release point it appears that the highest % you can get is 89. I've got mine at 95 and I notice no difference.

                                Also has anyone experienced the plays that their PG calls randomly changing (besides when/if your coach gets fired)? I just had a fantastic surprise now playing the game seeing that we're using different plays. As much as I love this team it's pretty much because of the defense. It's about as stifling of a defense as I can expect with the AI issues this mode has, but our offense was boring and annoying. The reason is because we were using Atlanta's playbook which was pretty much all iso plays mostly for the 2 guard who in our case was Jordan Crawford. NOW we're using plays from Chicago's playbook which has me coming off screens, and gives me gasp options of people to pass to and not have to just go 1 on 1 damned near every play. In NO we'd actually use a bunch of plays from different teams, so far in WAS it's been all Atlanta or all Chicago.
