    Re: NBA 2K12: The Official Association/Online Association Thread

    So in my online association I managed to get the following line up. Please share your thought and the direction I should head:

    PG Baron/Bibby
    SG World Peace/Walker
    SF Melo/Balkman
    PF David Lee/Jeffries
    C Howard/ Elson

    I also have Waffer and Novak and I'm thinking of trading Metta for Tony Alen.

    Thanks.

      20-26 in my Raptors frachise. Most of that is sim so I am surprised I am not too far under .500 at the moment. I just traded Barbosa for Marshon Brooks straight up. I was a fan of Brooks in college and I figured instead of letting Barbosa go for nothing at the end of the year, why not get a solid young SG for way less money right now. I also extended Bayless' contract bc I know at worst he will be my backup PG. In the games I play he's been averaging about 12 pts and 11 assists.

      IDK what I will do with Bargnani still. I like him in real life, but not really at all in the game. I suck at shooting with him, and next year when I bring in Valanciunas, and will still have Ed Davis and Amir Johnson, I feel like I should move him. I have 2 first round and 2 second round picks for this year, so I am considering moving him and a pick (or without it) for somebody, but I may wait until the year is over because he has been great for my simming. Although I dont really want to do that well this year and would much rather be 10-36, I am still more than likely to miss the playoffs and finish in the bottom 8, I think. I guess Ill see what kind of offers I can pull in for him, but other than that I will probably finish the year out with my squad how it is

        Nope, I mean in last years game when you went to the offseason free agency teams that had 5 mil in cap space were able to sign players who signed for 10 mil per year for example. It happened each off season and it has been that way for years in the game. It was an issue IMO.

          This is probably a repost, but I didn't find many replies on the issue from google.

          Basically, does anyone else notice that you can steal other teams' first rounders, even if the other team has a low record and is bound to have a lottery pick? Try doing any random trade that is found in trade finder, or is accepted by both sides, and then add two first rounders from the opposing team to the trade. And it even works right up to the trade deadline, where you can target a losing team to guarantee high picks in the upcoming draft. By trying this out I managed to get 5 first round picks among the first 10. Crazy, and I guess you need to resist doing this for realism.

            I like the toney Allen trade. I think he's an upgrade on offense with the same high intensity d

            My offline assoc is:

            Baron/Douglas/bibby
            fields/shumpert(split time 50-50)
            Melo/Wilson chandler/balkman(usually run him at pf)
            Amare/
            Chandler/harrelson/Jordan

            I run Jordan at pf if I go big with subs. I'm looking to draft a pg in the off season I didn't have the cap to sign Aaron brooks but felt Wilson chandler was a better sign since I needed young scoring off the bench at the sf position.

            Novak, Jeffries and walker are reserves.
            I might pick up sherron Collins if I have the cap cus baron just got injured. Or try to unload some bench for josh Selby and prospect him.

            With fields expiring contract I may try to trade too since shumpert is playing just like him but has better lock down d.

                I didn't see this when going through the thread. Has anyone noticed that when starting an offline association no one has any potential? I was looking to start one and everyone's potential is set at 0.

                  Wow I just finished my Raptors season. Ended awfully and right now I am in the Draft. The Wizards had the top pick, and also acquired the 2nd for Rashard Lewis. Took Sullinger AND Anthony Davis. Harrison Barnes got picked 4th ( I wanted him ) and I pick 5th. I took Perry Jones and will prolly have him start at SF (my biggest need position). I still have a late first rounder and 2 second rds, and my players developed nicely over the year. Ill post another update soon with full roster and stats

                    Re: NBA 2K12: The Official Association/Online Association Thread

                    Well My Raptors team sure has turned itself around. After the draft and free agency, I was able to pick up some decent talent, and my current players got a lot better. This is what I got so far:

                    Starting
                    PG - Bayless (70)
                    SG - DeRozan (76)
                    SF - Gallinari (75)
                    PF - Bargnani (75)
                    C - Valanciunas (79) - Was a 74 when I created him, developed a lot in the D-League I assume

                    Bench
                    Perry Jones (74)
                    MarShon Brooks (71)
                    Ed Davis (71)
                    Amir Johnson (70)
                    Ish Smith (70)
                    James Johndson (66)
                    Solomon Alabi (56)

                    I figured Gallinari would come to Toronto because It's a city that lures a lot of foreign talent bc it's foreign from the rest of the league, and with Bargnani already here I add another Italian to the squad. I may trade Gallinari if I am not a fan, but he was the only real solid FA I was able to acquire. Perry Jones will back him up at SF because I have a lot going on at PF and C. I like my backcourt of Ish Smith and Brooks, although Smith is a player I could see trading for a different PG. I like him but you just never know.

                    I also acquired the Spurs 1st rounder for this year from a trade in the past draft. I lost mine in a trade last year so Its nice to see I have one for now. It's gonna be weird havig a team who's rating is 71 (last yr it was 60) so I can have some real talent. Im about to start on the year and see what I can do with this team.

                    EDIT: I just traded Ish Smith for a 2nd rd next year. I signed Patty Mills to be my backup PG. I was a huge fan of his at St. Mary's so I figured I'd roll with him

                      Question, can you upload draft classes into the Online Association?

                      I'm sure it's been answered but I couldn't find anything after a search.

                          Well continuing with my Raptors season, IDK if I will keep it going how it is. I feel I made too many moves I dont like that are unrealistic as well. I think I got rid of too many players and added too many new ones, cuz when Its a team I like, I like to keep it similar to how it is except a few ppl. I know I am a year in now, but I got offered Iguodala for Gallinari the day after the first day, and took it. Something about that bothers me. Iggy is way better and I like him more and he suites my style of play better, but it seems wrong. So idk what Ill be doing with my season. Im kind of bored with this game right now and the xbox at my house is awful and takes way too long to load the game so with all that frusteration, Ill probably take a brake for a while and maybe wait till I go back to school in a few weeks to my better xbox where I dont have to wait 20 mins to start playing

                              Offline Association: Knicks 2-2

                              I don't know if Baron Davis is terrible in 2k12 or i am just terrible with Baron Davis. His terrible shooting cost me a victory vs the Celtics. Also, why is Granger a defensive beast every year? Does he even play defense in real life? lol

                              On the bright side, Shump has been great off the bench. He might soon take the starting job from Fields if he keeps it up. Amare, Melo and Douglas have been very good.

                              The game's AI is going to make me break a controller, tho that might have to do with me not having the time i need to put into these games as i used to.
