Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

Need to figure out what attribute to up to counter center's like Marc Gasol's bruiser signature stat that kicked my butt in game vs Memphis.. won by 8 but as a starter I only played 31 minutes because of losing stamina.. didn't start the 2nd half and an 8 point halftime lead was a 1 point deficit when I got back in..

still got 12 pts 13 boards with 4 blocks .. 4 offensive boards.. 3 of those on one possession when I missed shot after shot underneath ..oops!

The only thing that will really counter it is the Gatorade Sig Skill. You don't lose too much stamina and you don't get too much penalty when tired

So you're saying the same skill skill will counter the other big man's bruiser skill, right?

It will keep you with enough stamina to get you through the game and you'll still be effective. The Gatorade skill allows you to play more minutes by slowing your stamina depletion.

I requested a trade from the Celtics because of Rondo and ended up getting sent with Brandon Bass to Indiana for David West and a pick.

I love playing the Pacers. Having Hibbert to run the pick and roll with and him also guarding the basket on defense. The pick and pop with Scola and Bass is very nice. Then Paul George, Danny Granger, George Hill, Chris Copeland, and Orlando Johnson can all bury open threes.

I had a triple double against the Nets and I'm averaging 12 assists since being traded. Most fun team I've ever had in a MyPlayer.

So a scoring PG is able to buy lockdown, but an all-around SF with their sig shoes (+5 on-ball defense) can't buy Lockdown.

I guess so

After 20games as a PG for Timberwolves I lead the team in blocks (1.8/g), Love and Pekovich only have 0.6, needless to say I also lead the NBA in shot blocking among the PGs, I also lead there by offensive rebounds (~2 per game). My blocking and ORebounding ratings are 35 each and I'm 6"4, lol. 48 min games (myPlayer gets 37). I think I'm also top10 in blocks overall in the NBA

Sometimes it seems blocks are too easy and I can block any and everything and other times it seem like no matter how good my timing is I cant block a thing.

I lead the league in total blocks and bpg with my SF and he only has a 50 block rating; I'm averaging 3.4 bpg for the season, a few games ago I had 10 blocks and I averaged 4 bpg for the month of November and I had 16 straight games with 4+ blocks.

Sure I only had 14 points, but I led the game we also won 87-64 as almost everyone had 6+ points and Kendal Marshal and I had 17 combined assists, and I held Beal to 3-9 shooting.(1 basket was while I was benched) Thought I would've been picked higher

Won the NBA title, swept the spurs! Time to up the difficulty to Superstar, do it all over again. This season I wanna win MVP.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

So do the Jazz eventually get better? Things are pretty unplayable right now. I don't want to play my PG as a high volume shooter, but that's the only I can stay in games right now. I know in 2k14 Favors and Kanter eventually became beasts, but I also know development got nerfed this year.

Should I request a trade, or wait things out.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

ok...i gave in....rent this game out. Now, i bombed the interview and was drafted almost last to SA Spurs. Like the team, but at looking at their players, it is unrealistic to become a starter like after playing 15 games, unless for injuries.

Do you see your rookie players playing the 6th man for a longer period of time? Or the game is design, no matter what, that you'll be a starter immediately (after playing certain number of games)?

Welcome to the wacky world of 2k arcade basketball. There is no slowly building your career in this game as you will quickly be pushed into the starting position and be playing maximum minutes. Also, expect that current star players on your team to start playing like D-League role players, so its up to you to score lots of points and lead the offense for a chance at wining.

Good Luck

Sorry to be so negative and maybe, as suggested, I should retry this mode with better rosters to get a more accurate read on the game. But, I am so disappointed from my initial my career expeirence that I just can't get motivated to start again. So, I think I will just stick with assocaition play and hope that next generation is better.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

I'm having one of THOSE games vs. the Spurs where the odds have been predetermined that we're going to lose. I've restarted the games 4 times already early in the 1st quarter because the amount and the degree of incredible is...well, quite incredible. The game will do anything to hand them the win. Look 2k, if people want to be endlessly frustrated in MyCareer, they can just up the difficulty. Making the game frustrating for them on their behalf is silly.
