    I was talking about the stats bug which only occurred when you played games, not when you simulated them. If you want to look this up for me, just try to play the first game of a team's season, sim to the end of the game after the jump ball, and see if the Team Stats are correct in NBA.COM.

        Can you edit Shot of Dribble and Shot Low Post now?

        Are the dunk package and big men 3 pt tendency glitches still in the game?
        I never paid attention to cold spots in the draft class cause I stopped playing 2k12 because of the association problems. Let me know what to look for.

        You can edit shot of dribble but not shot low post.

        Big men dunk package please explain more.

        Big men 3 point tendency is unfortunately still there but its better. I simmed 6 seasons some increased some didn't. The top big men didn't increase but some of the middle of the pack guys did. In season 4 Greg Oden shot 170 3s.

          Well you can take a gen. rated player and go into practice to see what his hot zone/cold zones are. If the entire court is blue (which I predict is the case) the problem was ignored.

          Essentially gen players have a harder time hitting shots compared to real players which breaks the game..

            On a personal note: have they fixed split stats? sim a bit, save, start a new assoc., save, go back to 1st assoc, sim a bit, then have a look.

            have fun buddy!
            Split stats seems to be fixed. SSs? Need help on that one. Fun? If you call roster editing for another year YES FUN!

              If you control all 30 teams does it force you to advanced in Free agency period a day if you switch teams?

              How does the MVP award seem to be selected?

              Any horrible trades? (ex Kevin Love for Bargnani)
              Player progression the same.

              Minutes/rotations are better. Especially compared to last year.

              Player roles seem the same.

              Lebron won 3 straight. Durant won 1. Brandon Jennings won in year 5 averaging 27.5 and 10.3 assist. The selection seems the same stat based. Least someone else finally wins.

              Trades I need to study more. I wasn't seeing any ridiculous trades until year 3 heat traded Lebron to the clippers for Caron Butler and Shannon Brown. Maybe a draft pick to I didn't check.

              The 30 team free agent I have to check.

                The Lebron thing sounds ridiculous, but maybe they implemented what they implemented in MP where you can demand a trade/the team forced to trade you due to an extension not being signed.

                  i don't even think a draft pick matters at this point. if your telling the truth, i'm incredibly disappointed in 2k..

                      is the NBA Draft any different / deeper as well as scouting . are players still really good picks 1-5 , then the rest of them are worthless ?

                        how are the rotations "revamped" or are they still dictated by overall rating?

                        do all players average minutes in all games?

                        are all starters averaging 33 -35 mpg?

                        does Ginobili & Harden automatically start when going into association mode?

                        what are the attributes/tendencies that seem to progress/degress?

                        do players acquire/lose signature skills as the association continues?

                        do the players sit in the FA pool?

                        are there too many stars getting traded mid-season?

                        do all of the trades & signings still happen in November?

                        what bugs do you see?

                        what do you notice different abou GM logic?

                        are there real coaches in coaching pool?

                        can you promote assistant coaches?

                        do the last 5 sliders in the coaching profile have ANY impact on GM logic OR game strategy? (referring to offense/defense - forwad/guard - inside/outside etc. etc.)

                        greatly appreciate you taking the time to answer this stuff even though its only a few days before the game releases.


                        I controlled 30 teams and minutes kept resetting when I changed them. Seems that was not fixed but I will investigate more.

                        Rotations still dictated by overall.

                        All players average minutes. Same as every year.

                        Most starters average more minutes now. Thank God

                        Yes Ginobili and Harden start.

                        Attributes and tendencies changes need to get back to you.

                        Well Kobe lasted till 39 and had the same sig skills. So probably no changes. I will check more if sig skills are added and lost.

                        Players rated in the mid low 70s usually sit in the free agent pool.

                        Have not seen many stars being traded overall.

                        Trades and signings in November have to check.

                        Have not encountered any bugs yet. Just the 30 team rotation reset. There could be many but I just simmed to compare to last year.

                        GM logic. Didn't really pay attention but I paid attention to the rosters. In year 6 a lot of the teams were kinda the same. There was some movement but not drastic. IDK if that's lack of trades (which I need to check) or a smarter GM. I haven't seen no blown teams rebuilding or a team trying to load superstars for a championship run. Not to say its not in there though.

                        Same coaching. No promoting. Exactly the same.

                        The sliders I have to check.

                          Re: Association Q and A

                          Good work my man:

                          * Did they add any new statlines this year for example, points per game by quarter, team stats such as league leader in fastbreak points, bench points, ect..

                          * Does everybody play at least one minute or do some guys have 0 minutes by their rotation. You may have to go to general manager > resign position > and take another team to see about the rotations.

                          Edit: I seen that you just answered my second question

                            Stat bug fixed. Trade logic seems improved. Some crazy at times but hey its a video game.

                            Draft classes have hot spots. Gm logic in off season have not noticed.
