        That's not basketball, I know it's hard because the computer doesn't run plays, but you have to play basketball and not nba street.

        Pass the ball around and let your teammates do their thing, on superstar they can score without you needing to assist them all the time.

        Take a look at your usg% if it's above 40% it's incredibly unrealistic

          You can run plays. Just start the game, go to preferences and show play vision. Then hit right on the d pad and then hit l2. It's not hard. That's not the point tho. I'll advance the ball up court and pass it to the wing or to the post. i still get 17-18 assists all the time.

              Look at your usg%, it will tell you if you're cheesing or trying to play sim basketball.

                In my 3rd year as a PG on the heat, and having a blast. I got drafted originally by the hornets at #10, played a season (lost in 1st round), then my second year I put in trade suggestions, and the GM stupidly traded away Eric Gordon for Thomas Robinson (PF) and some scrub, moved me over to SG and started Vasquez at the point. This pissed me off as me cause me, Gordon, and Davis were a future big 3. I was even ready too commit long term before that. I didn't want to play SG so requested a trade to the heat or pistons (D12 signed there) got traded to the heat along with my favorite bench player on the team(awesome) for bosh and chalmers. Won the finals, now in my 3rd season and our lineup is awesome:

                PG: Michael Montgomery (me) 90
                SG: Wade (93)
                SF: James (99)
                PF: Elton Brand (71)
                C: Dejuan Blair (77) (has brick wall)
                6th: SG Ray Allen (72)
                7th: C Byron Mullens (68 ovr, money on midrange)
                8th: PG Norris Cole (72 ovr)
                9th: PF Jason Smith (64 ovr, money on midrange)

                Then a couple of draft scrubs. We're 21-4 and am loving this roster. Don't think I will be signing an extension though as wade and lebron both did, and wade is on the decline and soon James will too.

                  We(Pacers) had a great game in the 1st game I played with our new lineup with more length. We beat the Bulls. It was a game that ranged from a tie game to a 15 pt lead for us in the 4th. We were up 12+ in 4th, then they cut it down 4, then we started getting turnovers and pushed it back to 15+. Despite 7 TOs, I had a great game with 39pts, 13 assists, and 6 steals. My teammates really stepped up for us. Ewing had 29 pts, Jenkins had 13 off the bench, PF Hickman did well replacing Blair with 12 pts and 13 rebs, and Mullins had 7 pts, 9 rebs, and 3 Blocks. The new 6'10 SF Waters had a 'alright' game with 9 pts, but I dont think he was used to his best ability.

                  If we can play like that, than we could do some damage. We are 25-18. I avg 24.5 pts, 7.8 apg, and 3 spg. Hickman and Mullins can get over 10+pts, 10+ rebs, and a block a game, Ewing can get about 18+ pts if I run the right plays, Jenkins can get us 12+ off the bench. The only real question is Waters. He is more of an all-around player, than a scorer. If I run the right plays, I can get him over 12+ pts a game. We are 2nd in scoring as a team. Hickman did a good job defending the 4 spot. He is faster than I thought being 7 foot. He has 84 speed. He had a couple good drives to the basket and with 95+ Layup and 80+ Dunk he will finish around the basket. Our biggest things we need to work on is limiting easy transition buckets and limiting the effectiveness of SGs. SGs always go off on Ewing, despite having 80 OBD. I am so glad that Devin Harris will Retire at the end of season. He doesnt even provide nothing as 35. It dosnt really matter since he barely even plays anymore for us like previous years.

                  Me and Ewing are the main shot takers for our team. He doesnt pass up a open look and looks to create his own shot. I like that. He does alot of momentum shots to create space for himself. That game I didnt run any individual plays other than 'Best Play' because I wanted to see how we would play. After that game, I sorta know which plays to run for plays. For Ewing- I will can ISOs and screens, Jenkins-just screens, For Hickman and Waters, cuts to the basket and ISOs. Mullins is primarily a rebounder and average paint defender, but I can run some post plays.

                    I put a lot into my current SG and am definitely happy w/it at this point, having won the 'ship as a rookie and now 12-4 in season 2 with PHI.

                    But alas, I will start over. Got the latest roster, tweaked the coach profiles, accessories, and most of all some ratings. When I started going team by team to correct accessories, boy oh boy was there some OUT OF WACK ratings for guys. Some were just inflated stars, but it surprised me how many marginal to even scrub type players had some crazy ratings. It instantly made sense why some guys were torching me in MC with some of these ratings 2K had. SMH.

                    Gonna do a pretty thorough run-thru before starting though. I also gave CP3 a 6yr contract, and Dwight a 4yr extension. I know anything can happen IRL but this I want control over lol. Don't wanna see CP in CLE with Kyrie again lol, so unrealistic. Def interested to see how powerful they get later on, Kobe retires, etc.

                      I would recommend just waiting for Bedwardsroy' roster. It'll have all the updates/fixed ratings your wanting. Aswell as fixed tendencies/profiles. Should be out this week. I think I'm gonna do the same thing as you and give CP3/D12//Harden extensions and start over once those are out.

                        His roster is for PS3? If so I may well just do that, along with the CP3/Harden/Dwight contract fixes.

                            MyCAREER is amazing.
                            I love the story lines it creates for me.

                            I am in the second year of my 6'7 3-pt SF. The first year My Blazers just crapped the bed, getting the 3rd pick in the draft.

                            I am a SUPER SIM guy, so this might sound stupid but I would rather be the guy that stands in the corner waiting for a shot then average 30 pts 20 rbs and 10 ast, like I see people do sometimes.

                            So anyway, after averaging a pedestrian 7-4-4 off the bench, I am now a 6th man of the year contender. Playing so badly did award us with 75 OVR (80 mid range, 96 Dunk) rookie Jim Buchanan, We also traded for my favorite center in the league!!! JAVALE MCGEE (17 pts, 8 rebs.)

                            Our team was properly built and now ready to Dominate

                            PG: Dame Lillard - Does this guy miss? No. He doesn't. 20-10 Point guard.

                            SG: Nicholas Batum - This is one huge Shooting guard. Rebounds, 3's, he does it all.

                            SF: Jim Buchanan - Rookie who throws it down like Derozan and Pulls up like KD.

                            PF: LaMarcus Aldridge - Want an easy assist? Throw it to him 16 feet from the basket. Money. 92 Midrange.

                            C: JaVale Mcgee - Enough said.

                            So now after beginning the season 6-7. I had lost hope, until we Smashed everyone on route to a 10 game winning streak and a west-leading 16-7.

                            My point is, the realism is there for me on Superstar-simulation. It creates those Story lines you'll see in the real NBA. Anyone else have similar situations?

                              Freezing seems to be a widespread issue. Mine frequently freezes during breaks between quarters when they show your magazine cover/endorsement. Screen just stays black. So ANNOYING as I swear it only happens when I'm having a great game vs a big rival/key game.
