    Re: New Challenge: Father Time is no Friend of Mine

    I'm assuming as it's the oldest players in the league we'll be playing the current versions of these guys and not throwback KG and Nash for example. If so, I'm satisfied with the restrictions for once. I wouldn't mind them putting one on hall of fame with no restrictions at some point though...

          Wowwwww... In that case I retract my previous statement. This challenge is STUPID. That lineup is ridiculously stacked.

            Played it twice today. Lost the first by 12, then lost the second time by just 3. My best results so far have come from trying to take dirk off the dribble and exploit his speed disadvantage.

              All of these amazing playoffs stories and this is what 2k comes up with. How sad.

                Lost first game by 8, second game by 4 with Lawson, Korver, Rookie Durant, Faried & Sanders. Noticed they scored mostly with Kobe & Dirk. Shifted lineup focus to defense and finally won by 8 = Patrick Beverley, Tony Allen, Jimmy Butler, Taj Gibson & Tyson Chandler.

                  It's probably too late, but maybe something like "Sweep the Hawks with 8 players from the Cavs" or something like that would be cool

                    Even though the CPU's lineup is stacked with talent, they weren't that hard to defend, because Kobe and Dirk will always try to force up a shot every time that they get their hands on the ball. All you have to do is keep a hand up and they'll miss most of their contested looks, since these sliders aren't on Hall of Fame.

                    Plus there are plenty of good silver players out there who can dominate a game under a human's control.

                    It is weird though how Visual Concepts has completely avoided creating any playoff-themed content for MyTeam. Ultimate Team in NBA Live, EA NHL, and Madden NFL are all killing NBA 2K in that regard.

                      I could see where some would struggle on this, but it's really not too bad.

                      I beat it on my first try using Conley, RC Durant, Klay, Taj, and DeAndre. I brought Morrow off the bench and ran 63 fist for him to keep the team afloat while the silvers rested.

                        So basically what the Cavs did. But yes they do need way more challenges with variety. it would have taken hardly any effort to release 5 challenges a week. In varying difficulty and length and restrictions. i just picked up the new Hakeem and i want to try him out

                          Actually, for those that ordered 2K digitally, no RC Durant. Also, you had to use the infamous 63-Fist. So cheese versus cheese....

                          Honestly, I knew besides being an Onyx-loaded team, having Dirk start at the SF position was the cheesiest move of all. Dirk moves much faster on CPU-side.

                          So ironic that 2K decided to use the stronger versions of those 'aged' players. It seems that they really think we're fools.... Allow at least a few Golds as Bronze player's defensively have no chance against Onyx players whether on or off-ball.

                              Muggsy, Jeff Hornacek, Dennis Scott, Sam Perkins, Darryl Dawkins.

                              Muggsy sucks in this game though. I was just using him for this challenge to try something different. Robert Pack is a much better silver PG.
