its getting harder and harder to enjoy this mode. i hate having to do 80%+ of the scoring for my team and it still isnt enough. i played a game last night where i came in with 3:23 left in the first quarter already down 23-6. i shot 95% (22/23 i think) from the field (100% from the stripe and 100% from beyond the arc) en route to 40+ points and we still lost by double digits. i also had five blocks and three steals to go along with seven assists.

i really dont know what else to do. i would probably have four or five double digit assist games if my teammates would 1)take open shots and 2) make easy layups.

Does the GM manipulation technique have to be used in the first year? I've seen Pheonix capture Melo and Chris Bosh before, I'm interested to see what they can do.

I'm about 20ish games in to my 2nd season with the Wolves... and am still starting (and staying) at SG instead of PG. Rubio is at PG 90% of the time, and when he isn't, Barea (who is now back from injury) plays PG. I "think" this all started when Kevin Martin who was the starting SG got hit by an ACL injury in the first game of the season (out for the season)... hopefully when he comes back, I'll be able to start at PG again.

I don't really have a problem with playing SG, but Rubio annoys me to bits in my game. If I don't call for the ball early, he charges right into the lane, runs into about 3 opposing players, and then tosses the ball to whoever else is nearby... which usually results in a turnover. To be fair, this does result in him getting about 10 AGP... except it also results in a lot of TOPG and points off TOs. When I do call for the ball, the team is essentially playing with 4 players... Rubio hangs around behind the arc, and if I do pass to him (which I try to avoid), he'll pump fake, and then charge into the lane like he does when I don't call for the ball.

If Rubio is still starting ahead of me when Kevin Martin comes back, I'm probably going to see if I can get him traded (or just get myself traded). Or I might just give up on my PG and create a SF.

The same **** is happening to me too. The annoying thing is that the game hasn't always been like this. But in the past month, it has gotten so bad.
Idk if it was a patch or something but every single team shot 60%+ against us while my teammates would shoot 30. All the while I'm scoring 25 a game with my 66 rated SG without even trying. I'm making threes with a 53 rating. It's crazy how this game mode just wants you to be a star and carry your team every game.
I got tired of it, so I switched the difficulty to allstar, but it continues. This mode wasn't like this when I first got the game. I really don't know what's happened but any kind of team play has gone out the window. I'm just finding myself more and more frustrated.

yea i only play on all-star and even when i am carrying my team i cant win as i mentioned above. im not sure what more i can do than a near double/triple double and 95% shooting. i dont think its possible to carry a team more than that.

The funniest part of Rubio is if you give it to him on a fast break.. it is ALWAYS a turnover by him trying to force it, and I've had him make blatantly stupid turnovers that looked like the game did it on purpose.. to stop a run when you are down a point or two and trying to tie (or even take the lead)
