The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

[ffpp]

I'm at 10 games with these sliders now and the statlines are generally very good, very plausible.

My only concern right now is passing. I would put some of my turnovers on bad pass selection by me but there are also some passes which are just wayyyy too bad.
For example when my opponents scored, I want to inbound the ball, the passer and the receiver look directly at each other, and what happens ? The passer throws it *way* over the receiver's head. Thats just ridiculous. Maybe it was because of some opposing player standing somewhat closely nearby, but still, the passing lane was clearly open and it should have been a simple pass, but no - total embarassment instead.

76ers/Blazers (me)
Score: 89/99
Field Goals: 34-76 (44%)/38-78(48%)
3'S: 3-14(21%)/6-18(33%)
Free throws: 18-25(72%)/17-19(89%)
assists: 13/28
turnovers: 18/19
rebounds: 36(4 off.)/44(6 off.)
steals: 17/15
Blocks: 1/3
PIP: 38/36
bench: 16/43
2nd chance: 6/8
fast break 8/10

Key Players:
Brand 21 points 9 broads 2 steals
Meeks 17 points 2 broads 3 steals 3/10 3pts
Iguodala 16 points 8 broads 6 assists 5 TOs
Holiday 11 points 4 broads 5 assists 4 steals 4 TOs

Aldridge 26 points 13 broads 3 assists
Batum 15 points 9 broads 1 assist
Rudy 13 points 5 broads 3 assists
Roy 12 points 4 broads 4 assists (left in 2nd quarter with injury)

Nothing was changed from the Purist slider or difficulty. Coach profile was used. It was a fun game overall. I was down by 9 early in the first but came back in the second to take the lead. Roy got injured late in the second quarter and batum took over the load. Led all of second half with the sixers coming close to 1 in the fourth but Blazers kept the lead and never look back. Some complain could be the in-bound pass glitch in which the guy is 2 feet from the passer and the pass going across the other side. Sometimes, animation can be a little unrealistic, esp with speedy Holiday dribbling all over the place. Great slider overall.

Thank you, ninja!

But I need to run more tests. It's encouraging news, I think. Thanks again. I really appreciate you getting through a game (trust me, I know it isn't as simple as it sounds ). BTW: I'm not saying that's the only thing going on. But it was the most confusing part, to me.

I was wrong. We might have to go for on-ball steals, Ces. Give it a try next time.

What happens if we play these on Pro? Obviously it'd be easier but I think I just suck too much for all star

this was originally all about pro......but we got sick of the unrealistic stats, the dumb cpu AI and it was too easy....that's why Greenie and the rest of us moved it up to All Star.....now it's all about finding the right balane, Greenie is really close, the rest is up to us to play well and win for our own experience......HOF is my next test with these, people keep saying that it's the same challenge as All Star but without the harsh CPU game logic.....they could also just be talking crap lol

So quick question on real player shooting %...

for regular shots, it doesnt matter how i press square? It's just based off the guy's shooting %?

and for FTs, same thing?

How is this fun?/take any strategy?

Even if you setup a play and a guy is wide open and you time everything right on the shot, he'll miss because of his shooting %?
