What makes you a freestyle superstar?

[FAM CEO]

I was playing around with some players, for example TJ Ford and could not grasp what would make him a freestyle superstar. I increased his passing to 90 and he still couldn’t become one. Does anyone know the rules? I was thinking that it may also have to do with overall rating, because once I increased some other random ratings, he suddenly showed up on the list. If someone has a link or any information, I would appreciate it. Thanks

Re: What makes you a freestyle superstar?

To make him a playmaker, probably passing, dribbling, and offensive awareness.....

Awww..thaty makes sense...but it would be nice if EA provided some sort of rules or ratings that effective the freestyle abilities...

Hey I found this over at the NBA Live Series Center (http://www.nbaliveforums.com/ftopic28850.php)


Highflyer= dunking 85, jumping 85, speed 75
Playmaker= passing 80, dribbling 85, O. aware= 81
Power= dunking 85, strength 85, hardiness 80
O. scorer= FG 80, dribbling 80, O. Aware 87
I. scorer= FG 75, I. scoring 80, O. Aware 85
Shooter= FG 80, 3 pnt 80, FT 85
I. Stopper= D. reb 80, blocking 80, D. aware 80
O. Stopper= quickness 85, stealing 80, D. aware 80

I found this on NLSC

Highflyer= dunking 85, jumping 85, speed 75
Playmaker= passing 80, dribbling 85, O. aware= 81
Power= dunking 85, strength 85, hardiness 80
O. scorer= FG 80, dribbling 80, O. Aware 87
I. scorer= FG 75, I. scoring 80, O. Aware 85
Shooter= FG 80, 3 pnt 80, FT 85
I. Stopper= D. reb 80, blocking 80, D. aware 80
O. Stopper= speed 85, stealing 80, D. aware 80

The shooter one is off though, they don't need an 85 FT, and outside stoppers, they don't need an 85 speed, I think it's an 85 quickness they need. It's kinda stupid though because a guy like Artest or Bowen aren't very quick, they're just hardworking and good defenders.

I'm not sure about the hardiness with power players....

Re: What makes you a freestyle superstar?

I just created 8 players with the ratings above and they worked....(subsitute quickness for speed on the outside stopper and include the FT rating for the scorer) hope this helps...
