Has ANYONE beat the latest MyTeam "Two Brothers" challenge?

This seems to be the only way to beat the challenge, as wide open shots from guys with 87 to 97 shooting ratings will get graded as C- to B- looks on these cheaply rigged sliders.

You just have to make all your points off drives since your team's jump shooting ability is nerfed. Even sharpshooters like Steve Kerr and Kyle Korver will brick most of their outside shots.

That explains a lot. I lost by ten on my first try. The game was pretty close until late in the third, when the CPU flipped a switch and started making everything. I was actually able to cut it to six midway through the fourth, but I couldn't get a stop and couldn't buy a three on the other end. I shot 8-27 from three, and most of them were good looks. Meanwhile, Hakeem hit like three back-breaking fadeaways in a row in the clutch with Joakim Noah's hand in his face. I couldn't do anything to stop it.

Just got with in 10 points.....

few things ive noticed.....

Speed kills, go for speed and for the best driving lay up / dunk players you can.
Dont bother with shooters as well you wont!
Also centres are almost pointless.

Go for speed and run run run!

I respect those that like to complete these challenges for the sake of being a completionist, but other than that, this challenge, even with its 8500 MT reward just isn't worth it.

Only use great defenders and get to the hoop and free throw line. Also use players who are either good at free throws or you have their release down. Don't have shooters out there unless they are good on/offball defenders. 3 ball doesn't fall. I have 3 pt specialists out there and they miss but Iggy and Gary Payton make contested 3's. Big men wise I am having some success with Cousins and Blake Griffin.

I have given up on this. Only tried the challenge twice and quit in middle of 2nd qtr on both tries. About stamina yet their lineup plays starters every minute but like 3. Westbrook, Iggy and Payton make 3's, but my wide open Waiters air balls twice, LeBron airballs once, Wesley Matthews hits side of backboard, and Dorell Wright clanks off front of rim. they play pick & roll defense perfect everytime yet in real life everyone can't play it perfect at all. Then I edit defensive settings and makes them play worse on defense. I deny off ball yet they sag off to the paint. Also think you should be able to use like 5 gold instead of just 3, but might just be me who thinks that. Rant over.

what ever the raitings are for your players is brutal on this mode. shots that normally drop are in the red. pippen somehow makes players shake in their boots in this challenge. you cant get a shot off anywhere around him. i get the challenge but its really unfair for the player. i consider myself a good player and i just got blown the hell out by 50 points.

they don't miss shots. their awareness is turned way the hell up. they sometimes get 2-3 offensive rebounds per possesion. when dennis rodman makes every layup he attempts and lebron cant hit any the entire game. even the wide open ones. something is wrong.

just when you thing the first lineup is terrifying, you have to deal with russel westbrook in the 4th quarter....

All net. - dennis rodman with some weird acrobatic layup from near the free throw line (without a running start) in between three defenders for the and1... twice. - jordan starting at the top of the key, drive to the basket knocking over 3 of my defenders before dunking it. Two of those defenders had perfect position for a charge. On the other end i couldn't buy a bucket or a foul. I missed two open dunks and other than those i got clobbered on every layup attempt without getting a single free throw. Cpu rodman even got three charges on me even though he was clearly inside the little half-circle on two of them and on the third one he just went on to slide about 5 feet at superspeed to get into position. I ended up losing by 12. I'm pretty sure i could win this if i just had a couple of those superstar players like lebron/dominique/jordan/george/etc. I'm using: mkg (to defend jerry west jumpers) - wall english - lavine - marciulionis silver durant - royal rodman - west bradley - dawkins - birdman I just took out all my shooters since shots don't fall anyway. Now i just try to drive and get to the line. Rodman is important to limit the off rebs a bit and bradley "accidentally" stops hakeem/moses a couple times. To the guy who supposedly won this challenge by 30 -->

yeah I'm sure all those things happened and not hyperboles
