Anyone have any tips when it comes to playing on HoF/Simulation?

HOF isn't supposed to be easy. I think in order to win with things set to HOF/Sim you have to actually play basketball, which means running plays, playing on-ball defense, and coming up with and changing strategies as the game goes.

It is frustrating but in reality it makes sense. The CPU kills you on HOF if you don't adjust. I feel your pain but I like the challenge....sometimes lol

I do adjust. But that doesn't help my guys NOT miss wide open layups/jumpers 80% of the time.

Maybe I just gotta do all the work myself until Melo/Amar'e aren't injured.

Spamming pick & rolls isn't all that fun >_<.

I can never get a perfect release on my jumper so it seems like getting to the rim is the only way I can score now.

You have to learn the plays. I have never been a guy to use plays but this year I learned it helps greatly to run plays. You can get good releases its just that you have to know what players to shoot with and what guys should not be shooting long shots. Keep working to get guys open too, and there is not shame in going to the rim.

Yeah. Don't.

Apparently I just made a teams General manager mad, and now I can't call him. It's the last day of the trade deadline, and I really really want this player! I found a trade to go through but how do I get a GM to talk to me again?? Someone please help me!

[Genocide3883]

I do run plays and all that.

Last couple games I've tried all turn out the same, I get a lead, they keep up with ridiculous shots, then all of a sudden we can't hit anything and they hit everything, end up blowing me out.

Dude. Relax. When guys start going off like this I tell them to just step away from the game. Lol.
