Amazing how people think taking the ball into the paint every single possession and not looking for shots on the outside unless its a 3 and they think they are doing nothing wrong...When your shot chart looks like a 1 eyed smiley face, thats not sim. add undressed Italian to the milk man list.

Its sad that OS is getting over run by people who think they're sim but truly are just 'random online' players. I think people think putting the game on 'sim settings' makes them sim. Sim is not about rules -- those rules are in play as guidelines to keep everyone in the realm of 'virtual realism'.

I feel we have to many people claiming sim and they truly are not -- being sim is much more than a bunch of rules -- in the words of my man Da Czar -- its a lifestyle. Hopefully some of you dudes realize what us true sim heads are referring to and crossover to the way but don't act like we're bums or something because of the way we play. If 'floppies' give you trouble then you don't wanna run into a true sim head because what he pulls from his playbook will drive you temporarily insane.

The problem is people all have different definitions of the meaning of "sim". Some people thinks it means playing 100 pct on ball defense, no fast breaking, shooting 90 pct mid range, and only running plays with no iso's or quick sets. When, IMO, that isn't sim. There are alot of NBA teams that barely even run plays as it is, and if their opponent left them open in the paint or from 3 then they'd take advantage of it rather than forcing mid range shots.

I run plays, quick sets, but if my opponent can't guard me 1 on 1 then I will just iso or run pick and roll (which you see more of in the NBA than any set plays).

That is just my experience with the whole "sim" debate. Some people take it too literally and believe they can't do anything but play slow tempo, run plays, take mid range shots, etc. IMO that isn't sim either.

I really think its be helpful for someone like you or Bahnzo (seems like both of you guys are respected for being sim players) to post a video of your gameplay so others can see what being sim (running plays, varying offense and defense) is about. Because I played 2k12 with guys that said they were sim but we have very different interpretations of sim.

There are 3 kinds of sim players . 1. Those that get their NBA understanding from ESPN Highlights. 2. That watch Basketball on TV. and 3. Those who actually and go out weekly and play ball with they friends. Most people are 1 and 2..

3 are probably the worst.
