Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

last game it was Knicks vs Grizzlies. i had 12 points, 10 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals and hardly even had to shoot because Melo was lighting things up. he had 42 points! 20 of them in Q1! and Amare added 22, and we dominated the Grizzlies 109-89. it wasnt my best scoring game, but its my best all around game so far and i would take a game like this any day.

Great realistic statline. With Melo and STAT, you shouldn't need to have 30-40 point games on a regular basis. 20 assists every now and then would be great.

yeah, i love playing my player realistically, i dont like cheesing for 40 ppg like some people do and shooting the ball 25+ times a game like some people. i see a lot of people brag about averaging 40 ppg with their PG, big deal. with a PG i would rather average 15 points and 10 assists than average 30 points and 3 assists.

This **** plays horrid man the shot releases are weird as **** and the game is very glitchy. On top of that it's really hard to get a a+ rating which is stupid steal get u literally no points u have to block to get your rating up and guard don't block. They need to fix this crap man.im playing ten minute quarters b + averages all the way up to the 4th when the team keeps bumping into me to steal the ball and I drop to a c smh.

I don't know how u can say anything good about this game and myplayer is the reason I buy 2ks

1 thing you should notice. I'm quite sure 2k didn't fix this yet.

In MP mode (I heard in create a legend as well), the lottery pick means nothing in my player mode no matter how bad your team are. The lottery will always go to the team by alphabetical order.

Meaning that 76ers will always get first overall draft because it is the first team on alphabetical order (It doesn't begin with letter and 2k listed it as a first one on team list).In 2013 they got 1st overall draft and in 2014 as well. Bulls with letter "B" got 4th overall pick in both 2013 and 2014. (Bobcats will always get 2nd overall and Bucks will get 3rd overall)

Cavs got 5th overall on both 2013 and 2014 while Celtics got 6th overall on both 2013 and 1014 too. (if I remember correctly)

Then, Wizards is the worst one since they will always get the last draft right since the team name begin with "w" and it was listed behind Warriors. (Wa before Wi)

Same goes for 2nd round pick: 76ers will get 1st round, 1st pick and 2nd round, 1st pick) while Bulls will get 1st round, 4th pick and 2nd round, 4 pick every year.

The latest patch didn't fix it so as the game progress, 76ers will dominate since they got first overall pick every year. (means they get super RC at the age 20-22, rating 75+ or even 82+ every year. Their rating may be drastically higher when they grow and make some improvements. I guess some may even reach 90+ or 95+)

By the way, I only have 9 steals left to complete my HOF progress. However, only 1 match left in the regular season so too bad I think I have to wait until next season to get my HOF trophy. (Unless I manage to get 9 steals or more on my last game of the season somehow)

In my last 11 games since I got alot of time/became a starter, I only shot over 20 attempts twice(22 and 25) with my PF. I dont like shooting 18 attempts; but since the injury to Shannon Brown, I have to take over the scoring load because Nash wont. But once Brown gets back, My target attempt range is 15-18.
I agree with the PG stuff. As a PG for 76ers, I dont want to shoot 25+ times a game. I am more of a PG who wants to get the other players involved and hot. I would be perfectly fine with a stat line over 15+ pts, 8+ assists. Alot of people that play as a PG, be having SG/SF stat lines. If I have to takeover, I will score over 25 points. But, I rather get other players the ball. Playing with the 76ers, we dont really any jumpshooters. But, we have athletic wings that can drive to the hoop. I would like for us to sign some jumpshooters and some bigs.

If that is true, then I will be disappointed with the Suns. I was looking forward for a top 5 pick, so we can rebuild our team. Because we really need some talent. At least, my PG career with 76ers can have some talent added through the draft.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

That's a huge logjam in the frontcourt! With you, Enes Kanter, Al Jefferson, Mehmet Okur (unless you already moved him to New Jersey), Derrick Favors, and Paul Milsap, there are going to be alot of unhappy players. Hopefully they move Al Jefferson for a good wing like Danny Granger.

But anyways I digress lol...Both are important if you want an athletic big but Standing Dunk is more important for a Center. By having a high Standing dunk rating, you'll be able to throw it down in the post as apposed to doing a soft layup and possibly getting blocked.

Well I finally got the start and they moved Al Jefferson to SF. Harris got injured I believe so our lineup is Watson, AK47, Jefferson, Milslap, and myself. I just dropped 22 points and 10 rebounds in my last game, and I finally dunked off an alley-oop!

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I also realized how easy it is to get an A+ teammate rating while playing as a center. Simply set as many on ball and off ball screens as you can, and if they score off the screen, you can have an A+ rating by halftime or the 3rd quarter.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

After 8 games with the Pacers, we are 5-3 after notable wins vs Orlando and Boston.. We could be 6-2 if Baron Davis didn't hit a contested 3 at the buzzer in the NYK game..
My player is getting 25-35 minutes now and is getting around 12 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists.. Still a 62 overall

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I just saw that in the last 10 games that I am avging 23.7 points, 55% FG, and 7.6 Rbs for my PF.
I am currently playing in a key game and I am on pace for my 1st 40 pt game.
What is a good point to stop at if I am boosting Standing Dunk?
I just want to be able to do a standing dunk. I was thinking 80.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Playing for the Sacramento Kings is hard, considering all the guards are all drive and dish in my "my player" trying to get traded to either the Magic, Knicks, or Mavericks because they have 3pt shooters

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

If other teams don't have a dominant shot blocker in the post you can abuse the opposing team & PG. By either scoring on the PG or if the CPU brings help kick it out to the WIDE OPEN man!!! (PG "my player" don't know about other positions)

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I just had 33pt, 6rb, and 3 block(1st) game in a key game victory against POR with my PF. I got 5000+ XP. I got Standing Dunk to 75 and Hands to 63. Depending on how I am peform standing dunk in shootaround, I might stop. I have a key game against Lakers. So if I am comfortable with the Standing Dunk, I will boost Shoot in Traffic to 88 and put the rest to Hands(stop at 80). I am now 67 Ovr.
Edit: I just checked Standing Dunk. I can stop at 75, but when I have extra points I will boost it to 80

I put got my standing dunk to 80 but I always put up some wimpy layup. Do I need to increase my vertical in order to start dunking?

I am not sure because I have yet to do so, but I think Dunk rating plays a part in it. At 75, I can do some standing dunks but it has to be in a specific spots and it is wimpy. But as long as you have high shoot in traffic, you can make them. I think Shoot in Traffic is one of the most important ratings for any position especially for frontcourt players. I dont think Vertical does anything for Dunk(not sure). Your dunk rating is key. But it is expensive. I have it at 40 and it is 500 XP. I could start improving it, since I do alot of pick and rolls. But, it is something I will do after I boost Off/Def rebound and Defense. when I do boost it, I will boost it to a point where I can do it.
