Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

OK I got 1600 SP to spend... Should I upgrade my Shot Inside (80), Shot Close (75), Standing Dunk (68) or should I get any sig shot like Brick Wall, Bruiser etc?

Athletic PF here :P

Standing dunk.

Easier to score when you are close to the rim. I would use some VC for Shot close as well or shot inside.

I'm on the Blazers and my team just got dominated on the boards 60-38. WTF? I was on the verge of quitting the game because they made no effort to box out and get position.

Review of my new pg got drafted #2 overall to Bobcats then traded to Utah jazz because the bobcats have no scorer. Traded to jazz for mo Williams liked playing with the jazz big men but they had bo sg or sf so I started to key game it to see if theyw would ask me if I wanted to bring anyone in but they never did and we had. Been on a 10 game losing streak so I asked for a trade and got traded to the Sac Kings for tyreke Evans and Isaiah Thomas. Randy foye came with me. So now I finally got a team with some scorcers and some great big men so happy to be here

I agree, you should upgrade standing dunk to at least 80-85 for easy dunks after Off Rebs. Don't worry about Shot Inside because I remember with my last Center drafted by the Rockets, at around the 40th or 50th game in my rookie year I was avg 25+ pts a game just by scoring under the basket without touching any of my offensive attributes.

What game mode should I play on, my team wins when I simulate games but lose when I play the key games. This is on hof default but the scroes are way to high.

Started over with an athletic pg drafted to the mavs 17th overall. Averaging 15/55 on 50%fg. Lovin this team because I have 2 really good bigs with dirk having closer. Oj and vince are money and somehow we are 13-17. I will soon talk to the gm about trading for a good young defensive sf.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I had 2 good games. We beat the LAL and I was able to keep Howard in check. It was a 21pt-8 reb, 3 blocks. The next was a loss against MEM. I had a good game. I had 38pts, 15 rebs, and 2 blocks. It was a close loss. Rudy Gay and Conley went off.

I average 15.2 ppg, 8.7 rpg, 1.6 bpg, 58.8 FG%. Last 6 games, I avged 24.2ppg, 11.2 rebs, 2.3 bpg, 60-98 FGs(61%). We are 25-18.

I got Post Fade to 85 and I got Low Post D to 84, will stop at 85. Doing that I am now able to work on ratings I stopped that. I am debating on saving up to boost Bruiser LVL 2. But, I will work on ratings that are nearest to 90s.

I am 2 key games before the showdown against the Rookie PG. I am glad that game is before the ASW trade suggestions. I hope his sim stats are a reflection of how he plays. He avgs 21.6ppg, 5.2 apg, and 1.9 spg. But, he is 1st in Turnovers per game, 1st in Usage%, 2nd in League in Shot Takens. His team is bad, which can explain for those stats. But, I dont want to see him take alot of shots because his shooting ratings are lowish and dont have any skills.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Do you guys ever sim games? After playing all 82 games and getting the championship with my PG in Hornets, I decided to play only key games to advance through seasons faster, but my stats during simmed games are horrible. I can usually get 20+ pts but during sim games I usually get 10pts.

Does equipping scoring Signature Skills help improve my scores during sim? Cause I'm able to get 10+ assists through simming games occasionally. I'm thinking that playing 10min quarters affects the stats when simming games. The top scorers in the league are only averaging 22-23ppg w/ 10min quarters.

Each season so far I have played about 50 games each year and simulated through the other 32 games. In my 3rd season now. I'm gonna play about 50 games each season. 82 games way too much. Lmao

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I use to play on HOF but play superstars now because the Ai sucks on HOF. So on superstars now and finally my guys are starting to rebound now it seems as if I slow the pace down we do better rebounding. We led our last 3 games in rbs by at least 5 but only won 2 of those games and ima pg

Yeah slowing the pace down definitely helps. The big men are able to get on the boards better and get in position. Yeah I tried HOF a couple times and I'm never doing that again. Lmao.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I'm ready to smash my controller. At my third attempt to become a starter I lost all my minutes because i had 3 bad turnovers in a row, even though I finished with a B rating. It's nearly impossible to get more than 36 minutes (which I need) to become starter and I'm pissed.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Had my 1st 40 pt game against 76ers in a loss. What hurt us is that they exploded in the 3rd Q with 41pt. Holiday and Young went off on us. I had 40pts and 13 rebs.

I got the NBA 2k14 cover in my 2nd season.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Do you guys find it hard to win games as a Center? For me I do, but only if I enable Run Plays. I'm playing for the Celtics and while Pierce or KG can score 10-20pts each game, our defense and rebounding are terrible.

My teammates keep leaving their man wide open or giving them a clear path to the hoop. Most of the time I'm too slow to provide help defense or when I do the offensive player passes to my man for an open jumper. My team rarely boxes out as well, often giving up offensive rebounds and that always kill us.

If I disable Run Plays, it seems like we are able to win easier, but with me consistently running PnR with Rondo. This causes me to get 20-30pts per game while the rest of my team scores below 20pts, with only about 2-3players with double digit points.
