Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

You are in your 5th season? how did you re-sign? or did you switch teams

Actually i was wrong i'm in my 7th now (start of season, 8 games on). I got drafted 8th as a scoring sg to the raptors. Left in free agency to the lakers after 3 years.

Played in sf spot a while even though i was like 90 ovr and as a sf starter i had only rival keygames like 4 of them. As i didnt make the playoffs i raced through 2 sessons. Now im still at the sf spot but having sf matchup keygames since the patch.

Avg per season 18, 23, 18, 25, 24, 27, 30 ( ongoing season)

I'm not sure anymore...i think so, they did in 2k12 i know that.

My contract with lakers will probably end this season so ill see than and let you know.

Im 26 though and need to start winning titles. Want to stay but something needs top happen in LA though. We signed jrue holiday (28) this offseason and im thinking of trading him for a center. There are a lot of cool rookies around and i would like a shaq-kobe duo me being the kobe role

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

For all the offensive rebounds Rodman had, I still find it odd that he only averaged OVER 10 points per game in one season, 87-88, his second in Detroit. ...Barkley, got offensive boards AND scored, which sounds more like your player, unless he has multi-colored hair

You have a great point; I just admire Rodman's D a lot so I always think of him shutting down people. I did not know we were stuck with the looks of the guy you made on MyPlayer, so my guy is a Dolph Lundgren (as Ivan Draco) and Jeremy Lin mix, with a Slavic name in honor of Vlad Divac and AK-47.

... In-game attributes still messed up as well.. everything down 2-3 points from what it really is while playing a game, though I've mentioned this many times, it's not because of a positive or negative arrow on my player card thing because there isn't one, just wrong attributes.. home OR away doesn't matter, while actually playing the game..

With regard to this issue, do the ingame stats ever go up? I did not have this issue at all this year, but I remember people claiming that after multiple games in a short period (ie 3 games in 4 days) that your stats ingame would go down until your team had an off-day or two.

I'm not liking the patch. Ever since the patch came out I have to score 40+ to get a win, before I could drop 20 and get the W. Now reliable scorers aren't able to put the ball in the hoop for some reason.

Nova, after the patch did you turn on play calling? I'd try turning it off for a game then re-enabling it again. With the PC version, play-calling itself has weird issues at times and it is all random, but normally is resolved by "resetting" everything.

Question: the Free Throw attribute, is it more important/needed than during the previous 2 editions? I had it at 70 but upgraded it to 77 for now...

I find three throws to be less predictable this year then 2k11 or 12 without increasing the attribute. I average 85% made without any upgrades, whereas the past two years I averaged 95%.

Tell me which My Player you think I should go with... I like both of them but am having trouble deciding.

I think all the animations/plays look better with a 6'5"-6'8" player, so that is what I would go with. Plus, your 5'11" guy will be substituted in as PF sooner or later and at 5'11" you will be slaughtered out there.

This thus far was our worst game. I didn't play very well which sucks since it was a key game. We had poor defense in this game. Hopefully it does not continue.

4th Game of the season at Hornets

11/7/12
(2-2) 76ers 95
(3-1) Hornets 96

My Stats:
22 Minutes,2 Points,3 Rebounds,5 Assists,Turnover,1-3 FG,3 Fouls,-4 +/-,14 PRF,B Teammate Grade,91 VC


I thought we would win this game easy, but that was not the case. Coach Collins had me play post of my minutes in the first half. I think in the second half I only played 2 minutes. With the Celtics next I would not be surprised to see us go on a 3 game losing streak.

Now that I completed my first 4 games I was able to take my Mid Range from 59 to 66. Over the next 4 games I will be putting my VC towards Quickness. My quickness rating is currently 78. My player's overall rating is at 65.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I had 11pt(56%), 8 rebs, and 1 block in the showcase with my PF/C. I also had A+ Teammate grade.

I got drafted by Hornets. I think Davis and me can form a good frontcourt.

Since I did this career on a new profile and did the training camp, I had over 2000 VC to work with. I got Scrapper(Lv1) and Brick Wall.

I had 8pts, 4 rebs, and 1 block in my 1st game of career. It is fun playing with Brick Wall. That game showed me, that I really need to boost Stamina. I am not getting Eraser skill(since the rewards isnt really worth it). I will get block to 80(71). I will then boost Stamina, Hustle, Hands, Off Reb and Def Reb, Vertical.

5th Game of The Season at Celtics

11/9/12
(2-3) 76ers 96
(2-3) Celtics 98

My Stats:
20 Minutes,6 Points,2 Rebounds,6 Assists,4 Turnovers,3-4 FG,2 Offensive Rebounds,Foul,-10 +/-,18 PRF,B- Teammate Grade,99 VC earned

The Celtics defense was tuff. They tipped a few passes and on some just under cut the player I was tryin to pass to. Right now we are in a 3 game losing streak we play the Raptors next so hopefully we can turn things around and get a much needed win! I did score 6 points which is my career high thus far.

I'm not about to go through 74 pages, but I'm assuming you can't give your player equipment (arm bands, wrist bands, head bands, etc.)?

Yes you can.
