    Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

    I had to save and quit earlier, but we are well on our way for a win against John Wall and the Pistons. We are undefeated in key games(I think this is our 8th or 9th key game). We dont have any weaknesses on our team. We are 1st in team FG%, 1st in Assists, 1st in TO, and 2nd in PPG(107). What we do lack in perimeter defense(mainly Waters and Melo), we make up in scoring. We have length and depth in the frontcourt. EVERY starter(including me(PG)) can rebound and finish around the rim. Im at the point(mid-8th season), where I maxed out most of the ratings.

    The only thing that could make us lose is my player. As long as I keep turnovers low and play better off-ball defense( give up open shots at times on off-ball D). With Level 3 Floor General & Defensive Anchor, my players are playing great and consistent. Melo is Melo(no further explaination). Hickman is athletic PF that can finish around the rim(99 Layup) and has a consistent mid range jumper. Mullins has a good post game and with Bruiser skill, he tires out opposing bigs. Hickman and Mullins are similar on defense. Mullins is better blocker(85(+6)), but Hickman has Eraser skill. But, my favorite teammate is Waters. Me having Floor General(Lvl3) really improved him. He is so much of an all-around SF playing at SG(Melo at SF). I like him better at SG. Above average athleticism, really good around rim, Great height(6'10), above average rebounder(6+ a night easy), can block(few games with a block), and growing as a scorer. Last year, at most he would score is 12-15. This season, he can get 15+ easily if I see a mismatch. That is what I am all about in calling playsm is mismatches. I usually let Melo do his thing on ISO's and treat Hickman and Waters as spot up shooters or cutters. But if I see mismatches, I will call certain plays. As for me, I usually dont score much until 2nd Quarter/half. I usually wait until opposing backup PG is in to go off.

      I had to raise the difficulty because I'm blowing out the cpu every time.

          Yea, I notice it's mainly that your teammates play much better than the brain dead's they were last season.

            Is there away to create another myplayer character without losing the ability to use VC on your current player.

            I want to keep playing as my 5'9 pg but until this game patch some of the issues it's damn near impossible.

            I feel like playing with a taller player helps in this game somewhat.

              Very much so, especially with Floor General or Defensive Anchor. In games like APF 2k8, I never designed a player with Floor General. But, it really has a effect in this game.

              Last year, you pretty much had to go off for 40+ and get alot of steals and/or blocks to win a game because your teammates wouldnt have helped you.

              But, I really hope they improve teammate AI fastbreak/transition and help defense. Teammates move WAY too slowly in fastbreak. Teammates are jogging while opposing players are sprinting. I also hate when they just stand right in the middle of the paint and leave their guy WIDE open. I also hope that they improve help defense(in paint). When I get stuck in a missed steal animations,teammates just let players have easy buckets.


              We beat Pistons 128-114 to continue our undefeated key game streak. Every starter on my team had over 14+pts and 5+ rebs. I had 33pt(12-19), 11 assists, 8 rebs, 1 steal& block. Hickman had 24pts and 9 rebs. Mullins had 15pts, 8 rebs, and 2 steals(1 block). Melo had 14pts, 6 rebs, and 5 assists. Waters had 15pts, 5 assists, 5 rebs, 1 block and steal. We outrebounded them 46-38. We also had 16 pts off TOs.

                We are 10-0 in key games this year. But, this last game(against Wolves) was the toughest. We had a 12pt lead with 6 or 7mins left, and they came back and even had a 3 pt lead. We were playing sloppily on offense and defense. Brandon Roy and Wesley Johnson went off in the 4th. Down 103-103 with 2:30 left, I thought we would lose with the way they were playing. But, I started to get Melo the ball and he came in the clutch. Thanks to some TOs and getting the lead back and making FTs, we went on a 14-3 run and won 114-107. I had 31pts, 12 assists, and 4 steals. Mullins was great with 14pts and 12 rebs. Waters had 9pts in the 2nd half after only having 2 in 1st. He had a 3pter to end the 3rd Q and a 3 to start the 4th.

                We are 33-20 at the ASW break. I made my 4th All-Star. I am tired of going to the Dunk Contest(might delete ASW from the console). But, at least I have a teammate in the contest. I hope he wins because I know I wont.

                  I'm playing for the Magic and currently Glen Davis (6 ft 9) is the starting Center and Al Harrington (6 ft 9) is the starting Power Forward.

                  I play the Point (6 ft 1) and we get KILLED on the rebounds by teams that have 7 footers.

                  I'm in the second season and the team drafted a 7 footer with a scrapper signature skill and he is a beast whenever his on the court but because his only 64 overall the team he gets benched as Davis & Harrington have OVR in the 70s.

                  I tried to get him more minutes and he went from 8 minutes a game to 15 but he's still 7th on the rotation. Very frustrating.

                    I hope next year 2k gives us the option of playing 14, 29, 56, or 82 games like they do in franchise mode. Because if I simulate to the key games then my stats go down. If you pick less games then the season and HOF goals and mildstones should be modified accordingly.

                      Started a new MyCareer. I created a 6'4 192 lbs Athletic PG. In the Rookie Showcase I scored 23 points, 5 rebounds, 10 assists, and 3 steals. The Hornets drafted me #10 along with Anthony Davis, and Austin Rivers. In the team's rotation, I'am at the number 7 with 15 minutes per game. On my NBA Debut I scored 22 points, 4 assists, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals. After the game, coach game me additional minutes from 15 minutes it became 18 minutes but still in the number 7 position of the team's rotation.

                        I hate how the "minor" injuries completely mess up the players stats.

                        Seriously they should either stay in the starting rotation or not play at all.

                          anyone play for the Knicks?

                          How did you get there (ie, what team drafted you and what did the knicks give up in the trade for you? Or did you sign as a FA?)

                          and

                          How do they play? With not one, but TWO players with the defensive anchor ability, are their scores still in the high 100s or are they more realistic?

                          Reason why I ask is I'm thinking of starting a new my career as a pg and I know the knicks don't have a pick so I would have to be traded. Hopefully the knicks wouldn't give up amare, melo or shumpert or chandler

                              i want to be on the Knicks too....best place for a PG to go IMO you got pick and roll options with tyson and amare you got melo to kick it too...JR Smith off the bench...but so far no luck
