NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

Is there any way to dictate where you may be drafter? I'm playing as a 6'11 centre. I'd like to go to the celtics or thunder. I've played through the showcase three times, and the teams that have shown interest in me already have established big men. I've been interviewed and drafted by the following:
Timberwolves - they have pekovic
76ers - hawes and noël
Hawks - horford
Jazz - kanter
Bucks - they are rubbish

When I played poorly and dropped out of the lottery I would have thought the celtics or thunder would have jumped. But they passed and the hawks took me with pick 18.

If I can't dictate then I'll just stick with my timberwolves play, eventually usurp pekovic from the starting lineup and force him to the bench and build a tandem with K Love. I don't like that though, since pek is pretty good and in his prime.

You can grab the spot easily from the Bucks and Hawks ..they will slide Horford at the 4

Ok CC, as I said, I don't mind the scripted story in general. But keep in mind, I'm 4th pick overall. And am roughly 20 games into the season. And I'm on the BOBCATS! A team that isn't exactly boiling over with talent. But ok that's cool. I've been 6th man for a while now. I don't expect to be starting yet. (Even though Zeller was starting for a while...)

But let's look at some of our trades for a minute.

Trade 1. Chris Douglas-Roberts and Josh McRoberts for Kirk Heinrich. I was happy with this trade. Ramon Sessions was being a crybaby and wasn't happy. So screw him, let him sit in a chair.


Trade 2. Ben Gordon and Ramon Sessions to the Nuggets for Danilo Galinari and Javale Mcgee. I love this trade. I love Danila and Javale in 2k and in real life. This made me happy.

Basically these trades made us better! But Ben Gordon was actually willing to shoot when open! Noone else is except for 1-2 people. Danilo does ok, but Javale keeps his butt warm on the bench basically.

Danilo is starting PF now. Heinrich is starting SG. Kidd-Gilchrist is SF. And it changes up from game to game. Except I'm never in there. and I'm the 3rd best player on my team.:\

Also, just played the 76'ers game again. Got to 4th quarter and checked stats, and my PS4 errored for the first time. You gotta be kidding me...

Its kind of disturbing that know one has been a Free Agent in this mode.

Is it just me or are the adidas speedwrap ankle braces the wrong way around? I've got the three stripes on the inside of the leg rather than the outside.

Is it because I'm only wearing one at the moment?

In the interview they mentioned movement between C and PF. But then I think about milsap and Elton Brand on the team too. Having me replace any of those guys seems silly to me. What I'm saying is that the hawks already have a strong established front court.

Although my oh her game has me on the t-wolves which also has a solid front court with love, pek and Derrick Williams still there.

Another question I have, what effect does height have? I remember in older versions of my player if you were taller you would have a lower cap with your player. In next gen, it seems that I can make a 6'11 centre or a 7'2 centre and it makes no difference to my potential ratings. This makes me think that having a 7'2 centre is much better than creating a 6'11 guy.

The only think I've noticed is that fool, Jackson Ellis, seems to match your size and position. So when I created my 6'11 guy then Ellis was a 6'11 centre, when I created a 7'2 guy he was a bigger 7'3 centre (which I don't really like, him being the biggest player in the NBA and all).
