    NBA 2K11 - Association Talk

    Hi guys,

    With the surge of newly created and redundant threads lately, I wanted to shift the focus away from the gameplay and more onto the 'behind the scenes' stuff. IF THIS SEEMS TO BE TOO REDUNDANT TO OTHER THREADS, PLEASE CLOSE IT, MODERATORS...MY APOLOGIES.

    I, for one, love the Association and have played it going back to 2K2 (I controlled Duncan, brother controlled Iverson...lol). Last year (2K10), I used the Grizzlies and got into middle of the third season (12 min quarters) before finally giving up due to boredom (plays weren't run often at all, bad spacing killed my team, etc). I had developed Gasol into a solid 18/8 guy, had Gay averaging 24 a night and Mayo chipping in 16-18 a night off the bench (John Salmons started). Thabeet was a borderline acceptable offensive player and dominated defensively as the starting center (Gasol was PF).

    This year, I think I'm going to go with either the Jazz, Grizzlies, or potentially the Knicks. Deron Williams finally looks explosive and could be fun to use with his illest of all time handles, despite the lack of roster depth. Obviously, Rudy is my boy so Grizzlies are in contention. Danilo Gallinari is someone I've been following since he was drafted (he played like a European LeBron James pre-injury) and I'd love the challenge of taking NYK back to the limelight.

    What about you guys?

    a good idea, so can't blame you but i highly doubt that there isn't a thread already talking about which team they plan on using in nba 2k11. However to distinguish myself from a mod and not just close the thread right away i'd have to say i'm going to go with lebron's team

      Association is why I buy the game.

      I'm not a 100% die hard basketball fan, so I'll play 29 game seasons. This helps me get to perform more off-season duties, which I love.

      Anyways, I'm not 100% sure what team I will be. My top choices as of right now:

      New York Knicks
      Washington Wizards
      Minnesota T'Wolves
      SOS Madden League (PS4) | League Archives
      SOS Crew Bowl III & VIII Champs

      Atlanta Braves Fantasy Draft Franchise | Google Docs History
      NL East Champs 5x | WS Champion 1x (2020)

          Naturally i would say the celtics because i'm from boston, or the heat because wade is my favorite player. However, I want to get a decent team and make them a champion, so i think i'll end up picking Oklahoma City. Kd...man can that dude ball. If you missed him in the USA team this year, then you missed a lot.

                  Every year I run with the Lakers, even though im from Illinois. This year I think im going with the Bulls. All of those offseason moves...I couldn't resist being a homer this year. Ill play an 82 game season with 12 minute quarters. I play the first 10 games, then sim the next 10...etc. Does anyone else do this?

                    Both housed my boy Darko Milicic. Hopefully he develops under your association.

                      I don't do it in that sequence. It's more random for me. I like to play the marquee match-ups and important divisional games. I'll sim a bunch here and there throughout. It helps even out the stats (and saves a lot of time!).

                        I set mine to 8 minutes or else I have like 150 points a game lol. Before I would usually sim until the end of the season when I'm anxious to play in the playoffs. Although I stopped that and just play every game including post season. It take forever but oh well it is fun.

                          The Heat.

                          And I will try out "My Player" mode, looks really cool.

                            Gotta go with my Spurs, this should be a great year for us in the game and real life. Splitter and James Anderson are going to be fun to play with. Add that to Gary Neal and a few others and it should be good stuff.

                              I live by the Association, although I became hooked on My Player last year. Normally I go with a fantasy draft and choose the Bulls, but this year I might actually run with the Bulls too. I think they could be one of those sleeper teams this year, and are probably a crafty trade from really making some noise.

                              I go with 8 mins and sim for 12 mins. And I normally play the first 5 or 10 games to get a feel for the team myself, then sim a few games to get a feel for the better teams in the league and how cohesive my team might be. It also helps in figuring out how many people are going to complain about their minutes and/or roles. From there I hit the key matchups, rivals, etc.

                              Is it 10/5 yet?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
