Generally the Spurs would consistently stay ahead, but I'd dominate both ends in stretches and create a good deal of success. I'd pull to within 2-3 points, or even tie it up, only to have the Spurs put together a few critical buckets. Their defense gave me different looks when I'd try to initiate my offense through John Walls. Sometimes throwing a double team, other times just shooting the screen hard. Jumpers that I normally hit just weren't falling for me, and the Spurs had just enough offense to keep them from crumbling. It was intense. Really like these sliders alot, not even going to bother tweaking with A/S's sliders to all-star. Going to run with these sliders for a while. It's pretty amazing how much of a difference these sliders have made, and I can't wait to get deeper into this season and hit the playoffs. Going to be SUPER competitive.

Welcome to the team drewski. Glad you enjoyed the sliders set. I never imagined in a million years that these sliders would be so popular with everyone. I'm glad that is the case however.

Ha, thanks, it's nice to find the team so to speak. After running wild through the league in my first association year I knew it was time to change the game, no reason to play the game if you're blowing teams out. Not a great deal of fun.

Nailing a crucial bank shot from 16 feet out coming off a screen to tie it up in the 4th? That's what I'm talking about. I was already addicted, this is not good news for my 360 controller =p

Yea, blowing teams out in association mode can and does get boring very quickly. I also hated how the cpu never seemed to miss any shots down the stretch which I tried to address with these sliders as well. I know it feels much more satisfying when you win by 1 point than by 20...especially if it's on the very last possession which will happen alot if you play an entire season with these sliders...the cpu will challenge you for sure.

Exactly. I fully intend to run a few more seasons, at the very least, with these sliders. I expect that the more I play with them, the more consistent my efforts will be, but considering how challenging it seems from my dabbling with it it should never turn into what my first year in association did. I will say it's considerably harder to get my wings to drop shots off of set plays (Stephen Jackson absolutely needed to step up my last game, 2-12? Majority good looks coming off of off the ball downscreens? COME ON MAN!), but I imagine I'll get a better feel for that as I go. Plus, my team is still learning to run together as I completely rooted it besides Wall and McGee, so I'm still learning the strengths and weaknesses, and how to best utilize it all.

Overall, I'm thrilled to be using these sliders and can really feel the quality of the game going even higher as I continue to

I'm don't understand exactly what the issue is that you are having...can you explain? Do you mean you are missing too many open shots?

And too many 3 pts missed too ...with Ray Allen. hum ...

Just adjust the shooting values...turn 3pt up by a point or two. Those are variable depending on the player which is why I said they vary on page 1 of this thread. Sounds like you just need to turn up the shot success for 3pt and maybe mid range?
