2K needs to get rid of opposing AI forcing you to go into the post in the paint... It is frustrating how I got forced to be in the post position which prevents me from defending against opposing driving PGs.

I know what you mean. I do everything in my power NOT to box out when the opponent is not crashing the boards. If I block out, we get the ball....we...not me because some little guard took it.

On Court Coach Test:

Those who are PGs or have that on court coach signature skill, can you do a test with how the defense reacts/opponents shoot when you have the guard the shooter setting on? I am slowly saving sp so I can get the coach sig but I want to make sure it is with it defensively. In your opinion does the opponent shoot worse/less 3pt shots? There will always be shot clock cheese on HoF but I am hoping and praying that guarding the 3 with that setting will noticeably drop the attempts and %. I don't care about diving to the basket. Just want to defend the 3!

So, is there a difference in amount/%. Is it a lot/little/unnoticeable?

You know there's something wrong when your more willing to give up a layup, than a three point shot. One big problem with this game is that there is no live by the jumper die by the jumper philosophy. Then when you take away the jump shot that they hit at a rediculous clip, they just pound the paint, and your team let's them do it. And you have to just watch and shake your head as you witness 2k at its finest. CPU gets away with every cheesy move while your team can't and won't do anything about. I got so fed up, with is game against Minnesota that I called up my friend and told him to come get his game back, because I'm through.

This is why I am worried that even if I get the option to guard the perimeter shooters it won't matter because the game is 'scripted' to bring the other team back from a 12 pt deficient. As for driving the paint at least my PF will be able to get in the way/get some blocks. Right now I have to watch Brown (on the Suns) be given no less than 10 ft when he is on the 3 pt line. Even when he shoots the AI is slow to react. They have perfect releases and if there is no D... I just watch Brown...70 3pt shot....go 4-4 in the first half. Why can't I have 10' of room?

I am here for what is really upsetting me. Has anyone else had it happen where you lose out on SP? I played a key game against the Pacers where, after the x2, I was supposed to get 934, but I only ended up getting around 650. It's making me mad considering it's happened three times. I've already considered sending it back to Gamestop if it doesn't even start getting fun, but I don't want to. Help or advice on this supposed "bug" would be nice. Thanks OS.

Yes, I have noticed this too. Then I play another game afterwards, and it rewards me with more VC/SP than it was stated. I'm not sure how the game is adding the points.

My Bulls are 6-0. I scored my high so far with 29 points along with 10 boards. I'm an Athletic Center. Seems pretty hard to get rebounds but I've not started yet.

Had to do it ALL OVER. So now I'm a pg for the wiz (drafted #3) & I got Wall playing the 2 guard which is so awesome. He likes Iverson except his jumper needs some work but anyway this is a good look for the wiz. We're currently 5-1 & I'm still working on Wall being a shooter than a passer. Oh & I'm like Curry-esque but I only want to shoot when I have to, so I have to be more of a passer than a shooter. Hopefully we're going to the playoffs this year.
