    Wanna contain Lebron or KD? Here's how.

    Tired of Lebron and KD abusing you offline & online. Tired of watching them online put up 20-30 shots per game while their teammates ave. 3 shot a piece. Here's how to beat those characters online who choose to play basketball that way. Yes, you can pick an upper echelon team too and battle superstars shot for shot all night, but if you really wanna piss them off this is what you do. Pick a team that has a Bruiser Signature Skill the more the better. I always pick the Wizards when I see the Heat or Thunder. Yes the Wizards, with the Wizards they have 3 Bruisers Nene, Okafor & Booker. Now Booker is the ideal defensive stopper for Bron & KD. He's quick, agile and can keep up with them in a halfcourt setting.

    Now, here's when you play a game inside the game. First put a taller defender who can check Westbrook or Wade. Then you take that Bruiser and assign them to KD or Bron and bump them every chance you get. You pick that Bruiser and play off-ball defense, let the computer check everyone else. Bump Bron or KD even when the ball is not in there hands. If they like to turbo with Bron or KD even better. On offense every time down throw it to the post to your Bruiser back Lebron or KD down then kick it out and run your offense, before they know it, that Gatorade symbol will be up in no time. They will be burning timeouts wondering what's going on.

    Test it out verse the CPU first till you get the hang of it. Be sure to take note how the CPU moves KD & Lebron to different positions to get them away from your bruiser. So make sure you switch the bruiser back to them. With the Wizards it easy with three Bruisers i just put in my Energy Drainer Line-up (PG- Wall, SG- Crawford/Beal, SF- Booker, PF- Nene, C- Okafor). I'm draining your SF,PF & C. You can't get away from it plus all 3 of my Bruiser have good post games so I'm still scoring, controlling the tempo and most of all frustrating the hell out of my opponent

    Re: Wanna contain Lebron or KD? Here's how.

    That's cool and all, and imma let you finish, but what if we're playing MyTeam and we don't have a bruiser?

    Lebron, Wade (who in the right hands is much more lethal than Lebron), KD, Rose etc.... will still dominant your team.

    Its a good idea though, bruisers drain the opponents stamina and when players are tired 2k13 reduces their ratings significantly.

    Fun Fact: If you ever get a roll with some players, (or gain momentum) the ratings for everyone playing will increase substantially. I was playing a quick game vs the Spurs the other day and when my brother went to th substitution screen Tony Parker's ratings were all green and he was rated 98 and Manu was rated 100 (yes 100 not 99, I didn't know that was possible)

      Or you can just skip players who either choose the Heat or the Thunder altogether.

            I'll NEVER understand why ppl act as if its difficult to win games against ppl who use "Elite" teams & or cheese...
            I'll also never understand why ppl act like Superstars dont take the BULK of shots in real life...

            In real life the ONLY ppl that are offensive threats on OKC are Harden. Westbrook & KD...
            Shooting 30 times with KD/Westbrook/Harden or Lebron is hit or miss. Just like every other player man...
            Even against "cheesers"...
            To not play against a team is all preference but its really not THIS hard to just win the game lol...
            Especially against cheese...

            All this strategy isnt needed...its a good strategy...but I think its just as cheese to play this way
            Trust me...I get it...But just play with who you want/who you're good with man...

            I couldnt imagine going thru all that in your strategy and STILL losing...
            Point is. Your being taken out of your game...
            If thats not how you like to play or would play...I'd suggest not playing out of character...
            You'll most likely lose faster...or not enjoy the game as much as the person you're playing

            Some ppl play the game how they wish...
            The main objective is to HAVE FUN...and/or WIN the game...

              There is no tip to good cheesers, Defense is not that great, So your only chance is to out score him or keep up to their pace. That tips will work against causal/scrubs though

                It's not real life. It's a game, set on the second to the easiest difficulty.

                The problem is: Online, the game it on Pro with Default slider settings. The superstar players are almost unstoppable.

                It is pretty easy for players to shoot 57% +or- 10% with their superstar players. Usually when this happens, the other team loses.

                    thats cheesy though. nene,booker and okafor are not quick and fast enough to stay on lebron or KD all game. they'd get toasted on the perimeter and get beat off the dribble all day.

                      Probably one of the most useless rants I have ever read.

                      By the way, if the primary goal is to have fun, cheese ruins the fun of the game for a lot of people. So I guess instead of ranting you should thank the tc for providing a way to have fun against cheeses.

                        Im not sure where your logic lies. Of course this isnt real life...But you're playing a simulation sports game.
                        Now...I understand theres a difference between superstars and non superstars.
                        But what Im saying is. There are areas where their ratings arent inflated.
                        Actually...In all honesty the ratings mean very little.
                        I understand a 90 will be a 90...
                        But a +90 player isnt +90 because all his attributes are above 90...
                        Most times +90 players are that way because of high offensive and defensive awareness ratings.
                        I used to play superstars like Durant & Lebron with RudyGay before he was above an 85...Never had any problems against superstars..
                        .Its all on how you play the game...they can be stopped...like you said...its a video game.....

                        Try this....Change some stars/+90 players offensive and defensive awareness ratings and watch how their overall drops. The difference in dropping only these 2 will be greater than dropping multiple attributes like shooting &/or dunking/dribbling&passing etc...I say that to say

                        That would imply its technically psychological...
                        A +90 rating doenst mean they're going to make every shot. And if its easy for a superstar player to shoot +65%. Use that your advantage with whatever team you have.
                        Not saying exploit anything...
                        But if you claim its on Pro...
                        It will be easier to shoot with everyone...
                        Not just superstars....

                        All you have to do use your primary offensive weapons...Doesnt matter what their overall rating is...

                        Say you have a choice between an overall of 66 but they're +90 in dunks layups and every shot /offensive category...

                        Or you could chose an overall of 90 but no offensive skill just high offensive & defensive awareness but below 75 in all offensive categories...

                        In a video game? I'd take the 66 rated gaurd with a +90 in all offensive categories over the +90 who can't score.

                          I just use the 2-3 zone and clog the lane. Most Lebron/Durant abusers only want to drive to the lane anyway. What's scary is someone who uses the Heat or Thunder and play sim basketball.

                            ...This is what you consider having fun against cheese?
                            And exactly what is "cheese" because like I said this strategy seems like cheesing to me...
                            Fight cheese with cheese eh?

                            This is your idea of fun?
                            Strategy of this magnitude just to play a quick online match? Ok....have fun
                            But in my opinion just simply playing the game is more fun that trying to come up with ways to stop losing....
                            You should have fun playing the game win or lose...

                            The only thing ruining your gaming experience is the way YOUR playing...Not the ppl your playing...
                            1)"Cheesers" have fun cheesing" in video games...
                            Obviously they want to win. Obviously they will "cheese" to do it. Thats there fun...If you're not a "cheeser" you wont have fun "cheesing" to win...

                            2)You dont have to play them/online @ all...especially if you have to use cheese to counter cheese...
                            Wheres the fun that??

                              Hey, I'm a Wizards fans, I'm from D.C. that is a player I've seen them use so I use it in the game. I've seen Booker check those guys in real life, he's built just like Lebron (6'8 240lbs) plus Booker is one of the Wizards best defenders, he was drafted to check Lebron & Melo (Power SF's). I was using him on Lebron and KD in 2k12 just to keep them guys out the paint. It's not my fault they have Bruiser Signature Skills now. Blame that on the dude who left EA Sports to come to 2K. So I don't consider it a cheese when it's a line-up you will see the Wizards use this year. There's nothing wrong with strategics. That's playing basketball.
