I'm going to put myself in the best position to win the game. If I know that a few plays or certain animations are more successful for me, then I have no problem going with that and ignoring what player x would have done in real life.

See, I'm the type of player that wants it to be real in any way possible. I enjoy the game more when I see things that I would see IRL. I've lost games and enjoyed myself because every aspect of the game was on point. I like to win, but I'd rather do it realistically. For example if I know I can score every time I do a hop-step...I'm not gonna continually do it because I know that's not real ball.

Nothing wrong with using the mismatches that you have..Thats real ball..

It all depends on my opponent. If I feel he's playing sincerely, I will too. But if he brings out the BS, well then it's game on.

I can't remember the last time I hop stepped...

That move has been banned from my arsenal for the simple fact that it is too fake for my likings...

I play sim ball to the death... If I lose I lose... and I win about 90% of my games..

but I will never resort to cheese and I rarely have to....

loyalty is a beautiful thing...

I still use my grizzlies against top teams even with Rudy Gay and I continue to beast...

The fact that my Grizzlies are doing the exact same thing IRL makes it just as good

I play real, but I play hard. I'm never going to abuse any exploits or perform any other cheese tricks on purpose, but I'm not going to sit around all day jacking up long jumpers if they're not going in, if that's somebody's definition of "real". I define "real" as in anything an NBA team could conceivably do if they were in the same situation during a game.

That means I'm going to try and take whatever the defense is giving me, but always in a realistic fashion, of course. No passing into the paint if there are 4 defenders in there and the passing lane is crowded, no running all over the court with a player doing all sorts of BS isomotion moves, etc.

i play realistically,anything that would be known as an easy way to score i avoid. most the time i run plays for my star players,dish them the ball off a screen & spot up with them. Or if i have an opening i dribble drive. Plus 95 Percent of the time i use 2-3 Zone or 1-3-1 instead of man to man. I'm very knowledgable of Basketball so i love the idea of running plays & using a Zone Defense as strategy cause in real life basketball is like a chess match as far as strategy & this game I'm all for Chess meanwhile those who use exploits are playing checkers. Cause if you put me against a player that uses the Euro Step & has good driving ability & u take that away & make it a strategy game,I win 10 out of 10. the only thing i admit i use from time to time is The Pump Fake Foul,but i use it in certain situations & scenarios & i don't use it every game. Mismatches is not cheesing either,when i hear mismatch i think of height & weight difference which is true to life basketball but that's it. If you mean doing the euro step as a mismatch that isn't a mismatch nor does it represent mismatch,it's a driving move which in this game makes it virtually unstoppable many times.

I usually stick to my roots and not cheese at all. But once in a while I'll dip into cheese.

I believe everybody is guilty of that. It's very hard not to.

Re: When u play 2k do u want to play real or go for broke?

I guess it all depends on your definition of "cheese" & "realistic". I have a problem with people who think they're good at the game because they found a loophole in the design of the game. I had a guy who found a play that put his C or PF in position to cut to the basket with a lead pass & the defender wouldn't put his hand up to block the pass going directly by his head. I eventually stopped it and won the game, but I just don't see how you can have fun playing like that. If I make a pass that, IRL, should easily have been intercepted I cringe! -Shrugs-
