Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I think it has to get over 80 for anything to happen. Like I said, I'm in year 2 and have had 3 so far. I really don't know what the exact factors are, for it to happen though.

Mine is rookie year and only rated 75 overall but LWP is 86, but the game before I broke the NBA record in steals at 12

This may be sort of a dumb question, but how do you do the P&R affectively? I get my man to set the screen, but he doesn't roll. Help?

Do it again, sometimes I call for the pick 2-3, sometimes 4 times in one possession. Also you have to be patient sometimes and wait for the picker to roll ahead of you. And you can even wait for the roller to run under the basket, sometimes he gets good position with his man under the basket.

PG/SCORING/KNICKS/SUPERSTAR DIFFICULTY

In Year 2, we, as the Knicks have our team rivals (Heat, Magic, Lakers) but I haven't yet found too many individual rivals. Maybe because I always perform better than any PG in the league. I found two (Rose, Brooks). Rose is doing his usual thing, and is averaging 26/5/8 this season, compared to my 23/6/12. Aaron Brooks has just been amazing this season, and he's become a poor man's Westbrook, except Brooks takes more shots that RW, makes less shots, ballhogs more, and assists less lolol. He's averaging 25/4/4 this season.

Today, we were matched up against Aaron Brooks, looking to avenge that 118-117 OT loss in our 2nd game of the season. It was a back-and-forth game, and playing on Superstar usual produces that against most Top 5 teams. It sort of became a "me vs. you" thing and I was just intent to score on him every timne he scoring on me. He was putting the SUns on his back...ballhogging as usual; in the 3Q we began to shut him up, and blocked his first 3 attemtps as a team.

*Amar'e and Carmelo just were sleeping out there in the first half; in the second, we began to increase our lead, after only leading by 2 at the half, and we ended up winning by 8; 100-92. Stealing the ball is important in higher difficulties (extra possessions) and I finished with a NBA-season high 9 steals this game. I was so locked in, I didn't keep on my 12 APG pace, and only finished with 7 assists:

35 points (11-23)/5 rebounds/7 assists/4 blocks/9 steals

Carmelo and Stoudemire combined for 40 points, Brown and Bogans finished with 10 each. We extend our lead in the East to just 0.5 games.

Those 9 steals moved me to 2.0 SPG, and a look at the All-Defensive teams, as I'm averaging 1.6 BPG. Me, Carmelo and Amar'e are all in the Top-12 in scoring this season, which is great. We're all going to start the ASG, which is also really cool.

I have steal rating newly improved this season to 95.

Play off the ball defense well, see the positioning of the ball-handler in relation to your man, and sort of shade off the passing lane, but press 'X' or the steal button when the pass comes. It helps because I play point guard.

Easy to pick off are post-entry passes; these are obvious to see, and press 'Y' or the block button when the post-entry pass comes. Stand in between your man and the post-up player. Helps if they can't shoot 3PT, like Rondo lol.

I get around half of my steals from inbounds plays, especially when my team scores; there will be only one player the inbounder will try to pass to, and shade off them, and it can be easy to tip/steal the inbound pass.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I've gotten them 3 times so far.

Why u got them 3 times? I only got them two times.

The first one are just one shoes during the first season. (Came with commercial with melo, Wade, CP3)

The last one during my third season. (and this is the really last endorsements I got throughout my 7 career seasons so far) This one I can designed several shoes as my collections. (Make 12 of them so far. Not sure how much I really can)

My buzz are all 99 most of the time. (Due to the glitch, sometime my buzz will reset to 60+ at some points)

Since all of my sig shoes have a glitch, I don't use them anyway. (The +stat will disaapear after u play every match so i have to reequip the shoe every match)

My steal is a 90, I dont get on ball steals as much as crosscourt

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

1. As a pg, can u use quick play for each player?

For example, my quick plays as a PG on Bulls are:

Hamilton get open
Deng cut to the basket
Boozer post up
My MP iso
Run best play

Let's say I wanna ask Noah to cut to the basket, ask Deng to get open and ask hamilton to cut to the basket. How can I do that?

When CJ Watson is on the court and I use quick play to ask someone to cut to the basket, there is only the option to ask CJ watson to do that and he will miss or getting block so how I can ask someone else to cut to the basket by using quick play?



2. When I have Kevin Love as my teammate, he seems to get only around 8-10rpg. (I guess because his vertical is so low) Kevin Love also score only a few points (around 10 ppg at most) Any efficient way to utilize him? he barely does off rebs and put back and he doesn't shoot much from mid-3pt range. Only time he seem to score well is when he does the post up but i can't ask him to post up all the time to get him 25ppg like his real life?


Thanks.

PS. When I sim the game, Noah seems to average only around 5ppg and got only a few rebounds. Seems really unrealistic. I know that Noah is not good this season but he is not a 5ppg C.

I never try for on-ball steals it's almost pointless

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

What endorsements come after the second shoe deal? Do you get things for championships, MVP's, and other things? I'm having that kind of year with about 15 games left.
