    Need help! The Association (NBA 2K10)

    I've spent a few good hours today on my day off messing around in practice mode with NBA 2K10, trying to learn the moves and mechanics. I am still a little clueless how and when play calling comes into affect and what you make a playcall.

    I then went into "The Association" and woah, I have no idea what is going on what "Bird Years" and "Bird Rights" is, I need a serious walk through in this game for NBA 2K11 I really want to get into basketball.

    Can someone Skype with me and walk me through and tell me everything and help me with my game play?

      Bird Years is basically when someone doesn't leave a team through free agency for 3 years. Bird rights allow teams to sign players above the salary cap

        All this is explained by just hitting one of the d-pad buttons. Can't believe you missed this, since I brought that window up every off-season with no intent of doing so.

                It may sound like a cliche, but if you are new to bball, watch some real NBA games ... look for them on the net or on NBA channel ... also watch some CPU vs CPU games ... finally: practice, practice, practice ... and even then, when you get 2k11 you will have to do it all over again as most things are changed and the AI is even thoughter.

                  Slightly right but not to the full extent. Bird rights also gives you the ability to sign a player to an addition year that other teams aren't able to do.
                  So like he said if you've held a player on your team for a certain period of time you obtain their bird rights, you're the only team that he can sign for 6 years if he wishes. Other teams may only offer them the 5 year max contract.

                  Any other questions you have I'd be happy to answer.

                    Re: Need help! The Association (NBA 2K10)

                    I am starting to get a little better at the game, still need to watch more basketball. I was watching the computer vs computer game and saw how they passed and maneuvered. A guy I played online even is offering his help because he saw I was struggling. He beat me 84-40 Celtics vs Nets. He even told me to roll with a better team because I am a new guy. I couldn't decide, it was either Mavericks or Magics so I just put Jason Kidd and Vince Carter from those teams back on to the Nets. I even got Richard Jefferson from the Spurs. I am playing on Rookie right now though.

                    Any suggestions for sliders for a novice like myself?
