2k10 STar Stamina

[lebromelo]

Are ppl really not havin a problem wit stamina this yr? Im playin as the cavs, 7 min quarters, and i control the stamina bar for most players fairly well.
But for some reason half way into the 1st quarter, Lebron's stamina has already lost 2-3 bars. the rest has lost 1 bar. The funny thing is im controlling all players evenly.. and on defense i primarily use shaq or varejao.. So theres no way, Lebron loses stamina that fast. Then i set lebrons stamina to 99.. still he wont make it thru the 1st quarter... which is brutally unrealistic (99 should last me 1.5 quarters).
My theory is, when the cpu controls lebron (which is most of the time), it uses the turbo alot, but if thats the case, i cant do **** about that.. does neone feel my pain?

Haven't had this problem........I use the Cavs quite a bit, although I play with 12 mins, but he plays 40 mins a game usually, never gets too tired.

Alrite, conducted an experiment.
Played a quarter with the Cavs. 8 min Quarters. Played half way into 1st quarter. (Stamina Slider: 65) (Stamina rating: Lebron- 99, rest of team- default)

Controlled all players except Lebron.. Never used him on off or def. Lebron was always cpu controlled.

At 4:00, Players Stamina was at:
Mo- 88
D.West- 83
Lebron- 75
Varejao- 86
Shaq- 83

Wtf!? well, my guess was right.. cpu is draining lebron.
So despite most ppl sayin stamina is fine.. i believe this should be patched!

Its because he expends more energy then anybody on the court, he scores, brings the ball up the court, facilitates the offense, rebounds, plays the passing lanes and plays aggressive help D....did I mention he scores? lol

Sometimes he gets messed up. Last night I was playing an online game as the Thunder, and two minutes in Durant is exhausted. Never happened again, might of been a slight bug.

But you're talking like a constant problem. I think you're looking to far into it....Bron needs rest too lol.

I have had no problem with it. Don't know how well the CPU manages their stamina but I have had no problems. It just requires properly managing your use of the sprint button

Sorry to say but this OP is right, If your a Cavs fan & you play with the Cavs Lebron gets Drained by the CPU. Every possession I pass to him his turbo is Even lower. I know since people play with Stars, That means we are idiots who turbo mash, and never want to give stars a rest. Well that isnt always the case. Play an Association and barely use lebron (only use as assist man) and watch his progressive fatigue. I disagree with any one who says he isnt drained unrealistically. I played 5 straight games on quick play , 10 min quarters he is always the first on the team to lose a bar and around the 5 min mark he consistently has 2 bars & turbo meter is about half. I might be forced to play with fatigue off & do rotation method for subs

No need to be sorry. I am right. but.. i believe 2k took notice to this and gonna patch it.. in the meantime.. im having alot of success by controlling Lebron myself alot. The prob is the Cpu is misusing Lebron's turbo especially when he gets back on D and on the fast break hence his stamina loss. wat i got used to doing is selecting lebron immediately when the opposing team grabs a def reb. i can regularly have lebron survive the full 1st quarter now, jus by using him more.. its funny cuz in past 2k games, the more u controlled a player, the faster stamina would burn.
