Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Right now I'm playing in Superstar/sim. So far on the season, I'm averaging 19 & 12. My rating is a 67. I benefited from an early injury to Andrea Bargnani. I'm debating on whether or not I wanna move up to HOF because I get my stats fairly easily. However idk if I'm going to do it because these settings have offered a very realistic experience. Scores are generally close and stay in the 95-105 range. Teammates play like they should. We get the occasional blowout but its nothing consistent. Ive had two games go into overtime.

well my fundamentals like ball security and passing are failing me so i expect to be destroyed at anything above pro.i'll just upgrade those, get dimer and then up the difficulty.
so i'm seeing some hate against jeremy lin on here? i'm with the rockets and he is a total ball hog.comes down the court and just continues without pausing to the basket and ends up taking over 20 shots while making 9-11 of them.i never get the ball when i'm wide open even though he can see me and i'm wideopen because he is taking a layup with 4 defenders in the paint.i'm just going to get teamate chemistry up so he gives me the ball when i ask for it and keep it out of his hands.i dont want him gone because i can depend on him to ball hog and take the shots when i'm looking for an assist.just gets annoying that the game looks at your points, not your actualy performance.25 points isnt good when it came out of 25 shots and you make about 10 of those, but for some reason it goes past my triple double just because he has more points than me and there goes my player of the game.

I think I became the starter after 9 games. I think I started only doing key games once I was able to get double doubles consistently.

I think it should be whenever you get to the point where you are comfortable with your player and his abilities.

Yeah I think I became a starter after my 7th but that was because of an injury to Bargnani. Luckily, coach didn't take me out the starting lineup once Bargs came back. I'll probably start key gaming soon as I finish up the month of November

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I'm so stoked. We got Rudy Gay for Landry Fields and Jonas Valanciunas. So we keep Lowry, DDR, AND our draft pick!!!

Our Lineup:
PG Lowry
SG DDR
SF Gay
PF Bargs
C Hamilton

Wow man, that's awesome! A bit unrealistic but who cares and besides it's the NBA, "Where amazing happens" right? Gives Toronto instant cred and makes them an immediate playoff threat. 24 games into my rookie season with the raptors I requested Jared Dudley when I spoke to the GM about being "Tired of losing" and got him but strangely enough 11 or 12 games after that I get called in by the GM to suggest 5 players to improve the team? haha

I didn't want to ask for anyone cause I happy with the starting lineup and I didn't wanna lose someone I liked being traded away, buuuut since he asked I went ahead and suggested Wilson Chandler because he's playing behind Iggy in Denver and dude is too good to be riding the bench so I guess we'll see...

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Fouled out before I was able to get my 35th double double milestone. I had 14pts, 7 rebs, and 1 blocks. I should be able to get that milestone next season.

I made the All-Rookie Season and All-Defensive. I shot better than 50%, and shot better than 80 FT%. I wasnt able to see which team I made it in since we didnt make the playoffs, but that is still a success for a rookie.

I asked for Jonny Flynn in FA, since you cant pick from the intial wave of FA.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

keep us up to date on that draft pick you didnt want traded lol

Whew, I am glad we didnt get that #1 pick. It was a 57 OVR PF. We got the 2nd pick. We selected a Center. He isnt a bust(at all), but I dont really like the pick. We did need a Center bad, but we needed a PG more since I do start at C. He is 7'1, great defender and rebounder. Basically what we already have at PF/C, just adds more size and athleticism.I did ask the GM to give him more minutes. But, I will definitely ask for a PG through a trade. I will bad mouth Rivers.

Edit: We did get the best value at that pick. There was a PG selected after us, but I am glad we picked the Center. The PG wasnt a bust, but all he could do was pass. I want a defensive PG

Very unrealistic and if this was association mode I'd probably get flamed like no tomorrow. And considering that the Grizzlies are horrible in my game, they really screwed themselves. Our GM would get executive of the year IRL simply for getting rid of that horrible contract they gave Landry Fields, while upgrading with a top 10 SF.

Just finished our first game with the new look lineup and I'm very pleased. Rudy Gay had 19/6/4 with 2 blocks. He also shot the ball well (67%). DDR led the team with 25 and also had 2 blocks. Lowry had 12 dimes and 3 steals. I had 22/18 with 3 blocks. We beat the Rockets 112-99.

One thing I'm not understanding is why Ed Davis (68 OVR) and Amir Johnson (67 OVR) are on the reserved list, while Quincy Acy (63 OVR) plays pretty much every game. That's very irritating...

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

So sick of my team right now. I'm on the Toronto Raptors. Last season we made the 2nd round of the playoffs. But this season we have started out 6-13. Idk if we can even make the playoffs this year! Pretty much the only teammate I'm happy with is Demar Derozan. He is averaging 23 ppg. Ed Davis doing well too. He has 12 and 8 so far and is still improving. But the team needs to get rid of Lowry and Bargnani. Lowry been doing bad since toward the end of last season. This season he only has 11 ppg and shooting 41%. He also dribbles too much and turns the ball over too much. Bargnani can shoot and score but he SUCKS at defense. Probably the worst big man defender in the league! He can't rebound, defend the post, or defend the paint for his life. He is a liability for the team. Every center we play he totally dominates Bargnani and at least 5 times a game Bargnani will fall down while trying to defend the post. Last game we played the 76ers and Bynum dunked on Bargnani 3 times. The last time was in the 4th quarter. After Bynum gave him a facial Bargnani fell down. I was laughing so hard. I mean dang dude grow some balls. Trying to get the team to trade Lowry. He 84 overall so I should get a good player for him. Bargnani will be a free agent so I hope he doesn't resign. I hope he just leaves. This team has taken a major step back this season.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Thanks to mynba2k app and starting season with 1000 VC, I had 2000 VC to work with. I maxed Shot Med to 85 and put the rest to Ball Security. I will get max that, Ball Handling and Off Hand Dribble, all to 75. After that, I will boost Consistency to 80.

6"4 PG - All-Round - 78 Overall
Record: 38-28
Team: Magic

Moulding my player to be a defensive nightmare and pass-first PG.
Currently in my rookie year of my Legend MyCareer with Shaq at the Magic. Its been so fun playing with shaq he is so dominant! the PnR game with him is devistating but besides my outside shot ability we really struggle to stretch the ball, hedo is not much help and big baby just gets in the way of the big diesel. We have struggled against the likes of the Bulls (Inclusions - Jordan, Pippon & Longely) Celtics (Inclusions - Bird & Russell) Miami (Inclusions - Mourning & Hardaway)
My stats are: 18ppg, 10.1apg, 2spg, 1bpg
Jordan leads the league in scoring with 28.9
Stockton leads the league in assists with 11.1
Iverson leads the league in steals with 2.8
Rodman leads the league in rebounds with 13.5!!!

Im really suprised by how well the stat lines are playing out despite having so many stars in my league, but it truly makes for a challenge!! playing against stockton, isiah, iverson, even mj makes MyCareer awsome! i reccommend it to all..

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Made a 7'2 300lb athletic center, score 32points 7reb 3steal 1block and just made the A+ grade with 40 second left in rookie showcase. Cleveland, Hornets, Golden State wanted me. Didn't want to be the 1st pick because I'm heading to the Thunder. Did bad on all the interviews and was drafted by the Magic. Not upgrading anything so i can be traded to the Thunder for very little.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I think this could be a playoff season after tying for the worse record last season. The addition of the 7'1 rookie Center Saunders, really solidified our young front court. Davis, Saunders, and Me are basically the same type of player. Having Ryan Anderson, will give us more space to go in the post more. I like Wilson Chandler at SF and Darius Miller is a good prospect off the bench at SF. Gordon can be an elite score for us this year. Our main weakness is PG and lack of defense in backcourt(besides Gordon). Rivers is a okay scorer, but that is all he provides. 1st chance I get I will ask for Eric Maynor again, since there isnt any good rookie PGs in the draft. We dont need a scorer at PG, we need a defender that can pass effectively.

Isn't Iggy playing the 2 and Wilson the 3?

That is an awesome idea, how exactly do you go about doing it so it's the offline version with Skill points?

EDIT:NVM figured it out. Added a lot of Legends to their teams. The Lakers, Bulls and Thunder are scary teams now.
