    Does Practice Matter In The Association (NBA 2k11)


    Anyone who has the game or a developer, does setting up team practices during the week matter or have an impact? Does it really matter, for instance, in the association if I'm about to play a team and I have my team work on defense all week? Do they get defensive boosts and does it matter?

    Thanks.

    I know you want to make sure your question gets answered, but there's already multiple Q & A threads.

    Even then, this sounds like a hard one to answer until you have the game in your own hands and test it for yourself.

      Zone the scheduled practices the answer is yes. The lasting effect of the ratings boost depends on how strenuous the practice. There is also a correlating hit on your stamina and with progressive fatigue enabled it makes for some tough decisions as to when to practice especially on long road trips.

        Thanks Czar. Maybe it's just me, but there doesn't seem to be much discussion about it. I can't wait to really use it this year. I never used it regularly because it didn't seem to make a difference.

            ^For association...it makes an impact on your team/players.
            Only respectable people deserve respect, you destroyed the game.

                  I remember I used to give a player a lot of practices that focused on him for a few weeks before I traded him. His overall would be like, +7 of what it is normally, so I got a lot more in return. But I play fairly with the CPU now...

                    Thats AWESOME! Thats one of the best things and one of those small yet in depth things that make a game GREAT! Best news I have heard yet, and I love it! So basicly you ARE the coach and need to manage your players through practice wisely to take a boost or a hit to your team in future games? WOW! I've never been so excited to get a game in my life! The anticipation is killing me! Unbelievable all that they have done and this is just another one to add to the list!

                      And thats why he unemployed. AI has no one to blame but himself, I wish people could just be humble and play the game. Like Jerry Rice, instead he pulled a Terrell Owens and talked himself out of his overall worth.

                            How did I know before even clicking that this thread would be full of Iverson quotes? Is there a more famous soundbite in NBA history?

                            Thanks for the news Czar, that's pretty cool.

                              I think this has been in the past few years, right?

                              Maybe the OP is talking about if intra-squad scrimmages matter?
