    Re: i'm giving up on SuperStar level!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I just played a game against San Antonio (I'm the Knicks in my dynasty) and I thought that I might see your problem, but things settled down.

    Both me and the Spurs shot nearly 60% in the first quarter. We scored 38 points each in just one quarter. Yea, I was getting worried.

    But, after everything was said and done, the Spurs shot 46% and I shot 44%. The final score was 106-101.

    side note: I've also had a game where the score was 84-79, so I've seen some mix of scores on 12 minute quarters.

    I wish I could tell you what I was doing different. Even with the CPU shooting mid 40's , I still feel like they go on these amazing hot streaks where their star player will hit anything.

    I'm beginning to wonder if a hand in your face really matters in Live. I would have two guys jump at a shooter and he'll swish the three like he was open for two years. I've found that the key to offense is realizing that you CAN do something with someone in your face. I just watch what the CPU hits and I try to emulate them and it's been helping me keep the scores closer.

            I have to agree that this game plays very well out of the box with the exception of some things like fatigue, game speed (lower), and fouls (increase if you want more...even though there are quite enough already).

            Most of the blocks in the game I only blame myself for. I don't adjust shots enough and if I did CPU blocks would average at about 6 a game rather than 10.
