Hardest Jumpers in 2k12

Re: Hardest Jumpers in 2k12

Andris Biedrins has the hands-down hardest shot and FT shot in the game. If someone can get "Perfect Release" with him at the free throw line I will give you a pat on the back.

Yeah...he's about the same as the aforementioned Anderson Varejao...I don't understand how those bigs who don't even jump, and barely even move at all can be properly timed with the shot stick.

Add on Marcus Camby to that for jumper. Thing is straight impossible . Also yeah, there's a bunch of weird free throw styles on the game that kill me.

What makes it annoying is that having that shot lumps all of the bigs with it into the same category. Sure, never being able to have a perfect release with Biedrins is tolerable since that guy is about a 15% FT shooter for his career.
Camby, Varejao, and another guy who falls into this category, Tyson Chandler, on the other hand are all better than 60% FT shooters IRL. But, if you use shot stick timing on the FTs you're going to be lucky to shoot better than 20% with them. It almost makes using Real Player % a necessity for free throws.

I don't have any problem hitting free throws with Tyson Chandler.

Re: Hardest Jumpers in 2k12

jameer nelson and ryan anderson no matter what wide open i still miss even when i know im having a farily good release

Im wet with Jameer but I agree with Anderson. I cant get his shot down. He barley jumps so its hard to time his release but when I do get it down he will be my favorite magic behind dwight

Re: Hardest Jumpers in 2k12

Marion gives me trouble because his shot is so awkward and my brain just can't handle it. And I think I'm shooting about 11% with Marc Gasol.

Really? I just struggle with anyone who doesn't have a fluid delivery. Tyson's stroke is sort of a two part thing...he lifts his arms, pauses, then shoots...I can never get a perfect release. I'll get like a 60-80% release sometimes and he'll make it by virtue of being a decent FT shooter, but not often. I can't shoot his jumper either...if I'm gonna score with Tyson it's in the post or on alley oops.

i use the celtics in asociation and have varajero from the cavs. i actually have lots of and one attempts with him and guess what. I CANT MAKE THE FT FOR THEM. i can never get a free throw but inside shots and drives are easy.

Yeah, I use Andy too, that's what I've been saying throughout this thread...he's not a good shooter by any means, but he's not Biedrins bad. His release makes him shoot Biedrins bad in this game though haha. Camby, Chandler, Antawn Jamison, and a few other bigs fall into this category for me too.

I had trouble with Anderson at first but soon I figured it out. You basically just have to release the shoot button A LOT earlier. I almost release it right after he starts going up.


Also, to the free throw stuff others have posted. I find FT's to be to easy on shot stick timing and to fishy on real%. I feel like if I have a sizable lead on real% FT's then all my guys will all the sudden turn into Andre Drummond from the FT line (he's scary bad lol)

Re: Hardest Jumpers in 2k12

just remembered a shot that always looked funky growing up so i went into freestyle mode and surprisingly bill cartwrights shot isnt that hard (but its still ugly as hell )

I can't shoot jumpers with him either (not that I ever try), but for his free throws he has a pause right before he flicks his wrist which is right when you are supposed to release it so that makes it pretty easy to time.
