NBA 2K3 and dive attempts

[Peter_OS]

Playing in franchise mode. I have played a good 15 games or so and simmed the rest. I have still to see any dive attempts to save a basketball that is going out of bounce. I remember seeing it once or twice in an exhibition game. Maybe it's my luck, but I haven't seen this move in my franchise games. Have you guys seen this move? and if so, how often have you seen it?

I actually did it with MJ. It looked so sweet. I've only done it once and I've seen the CPU do it once or twice and I am 20 games into my franchise.

I get the dive animation atleast once a game. Either I would do it or the cpu would do it. It's very cool. Nothing to write home about, but adds more realism to the game.

Yeah it's sweet allright. Remember seeing it in an exhibition game. Weird that I haven't seen it in my franchise games. Anyone else see this move?

Re: NBA 2K3 and dive attempts

I do it alot in my franchise games, when the ball hits off somebody from a bad pass and is heading out of bounds I do it quite often. U just have to get use to it.
There are about three diffrent dives i seen. and most of the time it goes to the wrong team. I even did it one time and it hit the player on the oppisite team while he was standing out of bounds. SWEET!!!

Graphik have you seen the computer do it?

Re: NBA 2K3 and dive attempts

Out of the 13 games in my fanchise I have yet to see the computer do it. I do it most the time. But the CPU does'nt really throw passes that hit my defenders, so I usually do it for the hell of it sometimes, when it hits the CPU defenders just for practice.
It also will head out of bound after a block that goes over 3 feet, both of us will give chase, and they will let it roll out and I dive for it.

Re: NBA 2K3 and dive attempts

I've seen a few on-the-floor dives so far, but the best one I saw wasn't a dive at all. I was playing as the Kings and the ball was passed but deflected off a player and was bouncing high out of bounds when Webber jumped in the air, going out of bounds and made a one-handed save, throwing it back in bounds, with Divac coming up with the ball over a shorter Net player. I spent 5 minutes watching the replay from almost every angle. Very cool.
