    4th Quarter Blues


    Is anyone getting destroyed in the 4th quarter on a regular basis? It seems that no matter what the game is like for 3 quarters, the CPU turns into the 1980s All Stars and just kicks my a** all over the arena.

    This morning I played as New Orleans against the Rockets. I led by as many as 11 in the first half and I was down two going into the 4th. I got outscored 26-6. They shot 69% from the field in the 4th and I shot 26%.

    Yes, I know this happens in real life and it is not the first time I've experienced this. It happens in NBA2K9, College Hoops 2K8, and even the March Madness Demo! I lose as Kentucky to Tennessee in the last minute EVERY TIME!

    Because it has happened so much, I tried to pay special attention to the passes and shot selection. Didn't help.

    What are you guys doing to close out games?

      I have to same struggles in the 4th quarter as well. I just played a game against the 76ers. It was a good game up until the 3rd quarter ended. I was up 62-54 and after the cpu went on a shooting spree and not missing 1 shot the entire 4th quarter, I ended up losing 72-86. I could do nothing but laugh. I had guys in the face and contesting shots. I guess it's just the comeback AI that is in the game because it has happened on more than just a few games I have played in.

        Nada. It's happened to me, but I've also ran away with a few games in the 4th. Most have been fairly even in the 4th.
