For stretches, my team plays best when I don't try to impact the game too much (I'm a bit of a ball hog) - I swear they look like the real life Spurs at times, just gorgeous ball movement. Last night I played a game in which Rubio had 15 assists, Love had 35 points and 14 rebounds, my guy had 5 alley-oops including one on an in-bounds play, and we blew out the Hawks 115-95 on 8 min quarters (I had 20 mins). If I have one complaint it's that we're not very good defensively, especially in the post. Not the usual sagging of 3pt shooters that's so prevalent in this game though. I play on Superstar/Sim now after getting tired of doing it all by myself on HOF, and it's been pretty damn enjoyable thus far.

Someone posted that their team seems to get in a groove after playing a couple of games straight without switching modes or careers, and this seems true for me as well sometimes. I don't know if there's a momentum reset or whatever when switching out of a career, but there's definitely truth to momentum being huge in this game, and it continues into the next game.
I do enjoy the Wolves career.. I don't enjoy the way 2K has injured at least 3 and sometimes 4 players at once for me all season. My player is a SF who has been stuck at SG for about half his minutes because of the injuries, so guarding guys like Nate Robinson has been a huge chore because they just run by with the ball.. I can have a triple double (had 4 or 5 in the season) yet a B grade because of it.

side note: for the first time in 4 days the game put me in a PARK .. with actual people in it so I can play some pick up games.. so strange being put into empty parks lately
