People that "set it and forget" are ones that I avoid - They're not doing this to force turnovers or anything, they're just doing it because it benefits them with no real detriment.

I say it's fine to set your defensive pressure high. It will cause more fouls and more blow-bys for easy layups and dunks. The user should be skilled enough to take advantage of those types who set their pressure high. I'm not saying I'm the highest skilled user out there, far from it, but if someone sets their pressure that high I'm going to look to attack the rim and draw fouls on them. If they set help defense high then I'll look to drive and dish to open shooters. I may bring in my best 3 point shooters and play them out of position just to get an advantage on the offensive end. It's all about the back and forth of different strategies playing out on the court.

I say, if it's in the game, you should be able to use it to your advantage. It's up to the other user to change their game and adapt to your settings, and if they don't, you win. If they do adapt, you either try something else or you lose. The game seems to be balanced well enough that there is a counter for every move you can make. It's just up to you to find that counter and exploit it as much as possible. But as long as the action on the court still replicates what a real team would do somewhat, then by all means go for it.

The problem with this with defensive pressure on 100 you get average players to be defensive superstars, because most people that set it that high are not playing on ball defense, so you are letting the cpu play world class defense while you camp in the passing lanes, what this forces you to do is to become a iso motion superstar which really makes the game boring, i want to run a offense not iso motion to the hoop all game.

This game is very fun when players play sim or close to it. The problem is I've only seen it once. What makes me so good I feel is that I can play both ways. If u keep it sim I will to but if u start cheesing tactics I will murder u at your own game. But I would rather play sim. I jus refuse to lose to a cheeser!

Re: I'm Lactose Intolerant - Hold the Cheddar and Swiss please: The Good Games Thread

Question for all the simheads out there, do you sometime feel like you are putting yourself at a disadvantage by trying to play sim???? i dont like to have to play cheese ball, and when i do i have a hard time making it a game just tired of losing to the turbo, isomotion either dunk or three pointers all game players. How do you guys combat cheesers??? i just get so frustrated playing against the kobe, or Michael abusers, i played a guy with the bulls and michael took every shot in the first quarter, i mean no offense, just inbound to MJ come down iso motion, crossover, shoot, or dunk. really boring as hell to play against!

Re: I'm Lactose Intolerant - Hold the Cheddar and Swiss please: The Good Games Thread

Played someone last night with Friday in their name and had a great back and forth sim game. Went down to the end and I won but wouldn't have minded losing that one.

Just played another guy wants to be Kobe's cabana boy. Kobe had 40; next highest player had 7. Full court pressing and attempted steals the entire game, long passes for fast breaks over and over. Like an idiot, I then felt challenged to beat the cheese and kept it close for 3 quarters until he pulled away. Apparently I need to learn to refuse to play against anyone who chooses Lakers or Heat for their team. Go play NBA Jam...

I'll be online shortly soon, and will stay on for most of the night. When you add me, just put in "OS" in subject thread so I know you guys are from this thread.

I was trying to sim a game the other night, it was close for 3 quarters and then the dude started to cheese full court when the game was well out of reach in the middle of the 4th, he was up like 20 something points.and was just shooting threes ( i tried 1-3-1, and 3-2, but he was iso'ing til like 10 minutes left on shot clock and then drive and dish for threes repeatedly)

Re: I'm Lactose Intolerant - Hold the Cheddar and Swiss please: The Good Games Thread

To the person who said I need to use my bench more, I'll respond here since it's easier and I have more words I can type.

Using my bench is very much a "feel" thing for me. Most of the time I prefer to ride my starters, especially if I'm playing with the Warriors. My big 3 usually play 40 minutes for me. That's just how I roll.

Sometimes I leave my bench out for extended minutes, but not often. It depends on how well they are playing. That said though, if you noticed in our game, I played Udoh for extended minutes in place of my starting center Biedrins (Udoh played the entire 4th quarter and probably more minutes overall than Beans).

Also, if you noticed, I let Brandon Rush play the entire 4th quarter, because he got into a nice groove and hit a couple 3s, so I let him out there in place of Dorell Wright who has a better rating and is my starting SF.

It just depends on the game I'm playing whether or not I use my bench extensively. Sometimes I do, most of the time I don't.

If you feel you are at a disadvantage because I don't use my bench much, all I can say is - use your own starters more and try to match up with me. Or if you really love your bench, continue using them. I've played games where the other team's bench has outplayed the starters of my team. It can happen. But in the end it's up to you to decide how to play it.
