Will Pro-Am Promote Teamwork?

Why need artificial "bonuses" and "advantages" when you have advantages/disadvantages which apply to normal baskteball logic?

The problem right now is that most Centers can shoot very well... Thus they can spread the floor and rebound if needed... Short guys have little to no advantage on 2k15. Hence why a 7'0" PG has no issues with ball handling.

The point I was making must have went over your head. If they are going to allow any 5 to play together say 5 PG's or 5 Centers as a team, then they are going to need some type of ratings caps or the mode becomes a bunch of 7'0 PG's with Kyrie handling and Westbrook agility, and Curry shooting with the ability to rebound like Shaq.

I know the advantages of playing small or big but if Pro-Am/MyCareer does not incorporate some real limitations in players based off size, weight, height etc. MyCareer and the Park both will be cheesy. There will people that want to play legit in their crew and a gang of people creating their super fantasy 7'0 PG

I feel like if you don't pass the ball in 16, you should lose every time. It doesn't matter if you're kobe or durant, everyone has to pass in some situations. Nobody souls be sitting 80% from deep all the time.

That's just absurd.

Oh, and to the guy who said explain lebron.

He's a freak of nature, sure. But that's only because he's so good at so many things. He's not the best in the league at any one thing, he's just really good at everything. Except one weakness, he's not a great shooter.

That's my point, everyone should have an Achilles heal next year.

Sure. You want spend all your start up points on shooting,? You're only going have 60 in everything else, no matter how much money you have.

Then, you should have to play a year or two in career to really get your guy upgraded in a few other areas, maybe a little on defense and passing. So basically you can be kyle korver when he got drafted, but have to play 2 years to get to his ratings that took him a DECADE to get better at.

See what I'm saying?

If i wanna be an all around player, i don't get to be great at anything but that 1 thing first.

If you must, then go ahead. I can understand considering I counted about six different threads for Pro-Am not including this one on the first page. I just couldn't figure out which one of those threads to post this in.

Lebron excels in almost every area of basketball. He's fully capable of running an offense from the small forward position, he's a monster in transition. He can post of smaller players, and take bigger players off the dribble. He understands how to drive and kick to the open shooter. He knows if he's doubled to give the ball up to the open man. And he's a freak athlete that can dominate with just his physical talents alone. His only weakness as someone else said before is that he's not the best shooter, hence my mention of Curry.

If people excelled at just one or two areas rather than all of them, they would be more inclined to build teams to address everyone's weaknesses, and show off each other's strengths.

Yeah just gonna make a huge pro am thread later on
