    Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

    Been playing My Career off and on since the game came out and thought I'd chime in here.

    Created myself (taller version) as a 3pt Specialist small forward. Got drafted by the Rockets (17th I think). I'm 34 games in and have been in the starting lineup for about half of those games.

    Playing with a default roster with KMart still on the team for some reason, but we're still playing well despite not having The Beard (24-10). Martin is a beast for me so I'm not really fretting it either (avg. close to 30 and is really efficient and consistent). Lin is a solid PG although he can getting a little overaggressive and is prone to some high TO games. Patterson and Asik are solid as well. Both clean up on the boards and finish pretty well, with Patterson able step out and hit the J which helps the spacing for us. Both are pretty bad in the post though.

    Myself, I'm not really a large part of our offense. I'm very much a glue guy. I make use of the few plays that are called for me. Usually they are simple pin downs and staggers and the occasional iso (which doesn't really makes sense considering my skillset). I like to trail the play since my speed isn't really up to par of most of the SF's and look for spot up opportunities if the fail to matchup in transition. I rarely call for the ball or break the play to get my own which probably is the main reason my PPG pales in comparison to most of you guys on here but I'm fine playing that way. I just try to play solid D, grab some boards and make the right pass.

    On the season I'm averaging around 9.5 pts, 5.5reb, 3ast and 1to per game in about 34 mpg.

    Also, My Career is offline so I only use the SP I earn within the mode which is slowing my development a bit but I think it's a bit more realistic that way.

    There is still some wonky things happening in this mode. Plays break too often, CPU does some weird things on offense, and the sub logic is terrible but I'm still having fun with it.

      Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

      Been playing this mode mostly, started out with the Rockets and got traded to the Bobcats where at the time I wanted to go. We are playing pretty good right now but I always like to also have a player playing for my Celtics. Since its so hard to get VC unless you buy it and farming it gets very annoying, also the fact that I can't have a different My Player like I always do i'm thinking of trying to get traded to the Celtics and just leaving it at that. I am a 6'7" athletic sg in my first season right now. Just wondering if I should play it till I can possible sign with the Celtics or just demand a trade...hmmm

        You should be able to have multiple MyCareers though.

          yeah I know I can but I have 2 associations going and with myCareer thats 3 online saves which is all your allowed to have. Not sure I would even be motivated to have a 2nd MyCareer with having to get VC.

              MyCareer is glitched up on my PS3 so I can't progress which is frustrating because I had a beast squad.

              I'm a 6'5" PG and I got drafted by the Warrirors. Ended up being traded to the Heat for Norris Cole. I'm 2 years in. I got ROY, MVP in my first year. I set the NBA record for steals in both seasons. I got MVP, DPOY, and MIP in my 2nd season. We won the title both times. Perfect season in my 2nd year. Now, in my 3rd year, the Heat resigned Lebron and Bosh, signed Melo and Brandon Roy, and my game freezes when I resigned midseason to stay for 4 years.

              Hopefully, 2K fixes this glitch so I can continue.....

                  As you learned you can't resign during season you have to wait til season is over. I lost my great PG my career because of that. Had to start over.

                    Ohhhh, so that's what happened with my first PG. I was so mad I lost it and had no idea why. Good thing I read this, I might have screwed up and did it again with my new one

                    Thanks!

                        I'm in my 3rd season with my Hornets PG and I really hope they resign me. Between Andre Drummond, Anthony Davis, and Aminu, its like Lob City 2.0. Leading in the MVP race, averaging 21 & 9. I bought Melo's jumper before the season amd I love the quick release.
                        I also have Deadeye, Pickpocket, Finisher, & Dimer.

                            I hate the fact that CP3 always signs with the Cavs. It screws Kyrie out of any minutes and now he is like a -7 on his overall because he is unhappy.

                            Dwight signed with Portland. They have the best record in the NBA thus far...and for good reason:

                            Lillard
                            Matthews
                            Batum
                            Aldridge
                            Howard

                            Talk about an awesome lineup.

                              That's why many of us on here gave CP3 and Dwight contract extensions prior to starting our careers...the unrealistic transactions and free agent signings make the mode borderline unplayable sometimes...I'm in my 3rd season and the only major difference is Carmelo has signed with the Cavs.

                              In a nutshell, big names are almost always destined to switch teams. Not a matter of if, but when.

                                Yeah, thats what I did in my Association. I didn't think about it when I started this career. Even if I did, I wouldn't have thought it would carry over into the mode. Wish I would have now.

                                Maybe if the Cavs were smart enough to put Kyrie at the 2, that could be a deadly backcourt...but no. He's the leading candidate for 6 man of the year.
