How are you getting a mid range game? I check the shot chart at the end...and it's all in the paint or 3 (or longggg 2's) Basically, no mid range game at all.

I've left CPU v CPU play a tonne also and checked...exact same?

Is there some sort of fix etc...?

I get plenty of mid-range shots against me too. I even get the 'long two' as Marv says where the CPU shoots just inside the 3pt line. IGN says the same thing, that its 3's or dunks, but I just don't see it. I even check the shot chart after the game and the shots are all over the place. You just have to not let them get by you I guess..

These guys aren't going by me...

I am just seeing zero mid range game. Kerry Kittles comes off a screen...open J...but he pro hops to the paint.

Reggie Miller...exact same.

Maybe Inside Drive spolit me...I don't know

...

Maybe people who ARE getting a mid range game have a different "defense assist" field or whatever it's called. I'll try changing that around??

Must be you man. The CPU takes a fair amount of Mid Range jumpers against me. They especailly seem to take the mid range baseline jumpers. Chris Webber put up 35 points against me and he only dunked about 3 times. Most times he'd pull up from at 10' or 15' and shoot.

<hr /></blockquote>

I'll play the Kings now and check that out

I am using Pared's sliders...which set are you using??

Don't get me wrong...the game is VERY good IMO and I am loving it.

Just thought it fair to balance out the *possible* flaws if we are too judge it as a sim

Question, has their ever been any good level of an midrange game in any NBA video game. I go back a long ways to lakers vs. celtics and I can't put a finger on a excellent midrange game where the cpu consistently shot inside the arc.

<hr /></blockquote>

I thought ID got it pretty well done and 2K3 had a nice one (problem was, it had no outside game)

The fella's here seem to think LIVE 2004 has one...so I am hoping it's just my sliders.

I may set all my sliders back to default and see what happens

<hr /></blockquote>isn't a long 2 the same thing as mid range and anything at the foul line and below considered to be a close range shot?

No.

A longgggg 2 is basically where the player is just inside the 3 point line. Closr range is in the paint.

A mid range game is guys coming off picks for pull up J's. Going behind screens for J's etc.

Kerry Kittles off a screen, Reggie etc...doesnt happen in the game etc.

Check your shot charts at game end...there is a MASSIVE area that's basically blank on the shot charts. That area is the 'mid range' game.

As stated, going to try and find some sliders...something...to try and fix it. If the fella's believe it's there, then i believe them. Maybe my sliders are messed up
