Yup, yup.

One annoying thing I've noticed is that there is basically 0 talent after the 10th pick. Sometimes even after the 5th pick. Almost all rookies after pick 5 have 50-60 potential. That's fine on it's own, but since the entire NBA (the real players) have potentials of 70+, what I imagine will happen is that the 1st five picks in each draft will eventually find themselves starting somewhere and the rest of every draft will be out of the league. This will create a situation like every sports game before 2k11 has: real players will dominate the league until they retire.

I guess it's a players union issue (that they can't bring NBA player's potential down to reasonable numbers), but why do it to the draft picks if you can't do it to the real players?

I'm not sure how to deal with it. I've already edited two draft classes potential down 10, which essentially means that everyone after pick 5 has a 55 potential. Maybe that was a mistake. But there were still 95 Potentials, which bothered me.

I'm not saying that 2/3rd's of every draft isn't out of the league in 5 years irl, because they are. What I'm saying is, both the HUM and the CPU recognize high potential one way or another, draft them in the top 5 and then it's all 50's from there-- meaning Rajon Rondo is not going to happen, ever. Luc Richard, not going to happen. Landry Fields, not going to happen. Etc.

Should a guy with a 75 potential be available in the 2nd rd? No probably not. But a 69 after pick 5, yes.

This was definitely something they did to the rosters. It wasn't like this before.

I lost Deng in this game for 2 weeks! Thats even after putting in the new sliders. Its ok though cause this game gave me hope cause everyone was able to handle the load. Especially Noah he scored 30 for me and grabbed 14 rebs plus his 6 blocks helped. I don't even go for blocks cause I play the point guard on defense. I changed my style of play this game and mainly went with calling plays.

how do you guys play defense? greenie just controls his pg, but how do the others who use this slider play D? and last time i played, bibby got 6 rebounds but mostly because of me jumping after them earlier than horford and smith and what not. should i be doing that or should i let the computer get those boards too?

greenieblue, I told you how the hook shot and post game was a little off and how I was going to raise it by 5. I found out if you raise it by 1 or 2, you wont make every one, but you will make the ones you are supposed to make.

Also, would it be necessary to turn the difficulty to All-Pro? I find myself beating the lakers by 15.
