Well just last night the timberwolves went on a 20-3 4th quarter burst to get back in the game against the Knicks to force Carmelo to make a shot to win. Guess there is equalizer coming from Adam Silver's NBA office too...


Just kidding but I have experienced a similar amount of this too. I will have 2 straight games of complete domination where computer defense is amazing and offense flows perfectly. Then next game nothing works. People are open all over and I miss completely wide open shots off of set plays or freelance. One game my opponent hit 3 fadeaway contested 3's where I worried about if my controlled player would get called for the foul. That was right after my Ruby curry and Hudson just blew 2 wide open ones. Maybe it is the smallest possible lag in the connection with the new opponent or not. I don't know but it seems fishy.


I switch my lineups so I don't have my players shots down perfectly. I understand that and expect to miss a lot. The full white bar misses when I am getting A rated shots while seeing my opponent make crap multiple times is what gets me mad. I wish there was more incentive to use different lineups than what we have. Maybe bonus wins for using all gold or higher MT earnings.


I refuse to call timeouts even when I am up 15 then 10 then 5 etc. because I hate that the game is forcing me to do that. I should just call timeouts after they score 5 unanswered points. I would win more.


I get sucked into racing up the floor and thowing a bad pass leading to turnovers when my opponents turbo button is stuck on also. Part of that is I am so tired of turboing back with my center only to still have it be a footrace back. All that leads me to playing helter skelter and sloppy. I don't have fun and generally get mad. Win some but lose some.


I gave up going for the diamond shoes because it seemed like as I got closer the computer made something happen to cause me to lose one. I get tired of having to waste games and time just to reset so I can start over. Once I have proven I can stay in the seed by winning where it asks if I want to advance it should allow me the option to just restart anytime. Why is it wasting my time and contracts for no reward just to try to stay in a seed? That is BS to me.


I recently went to a pure garbage all point guard lineup of the smallest possible players like spud webb, muggsy bouges at center etc. just to see if I could win a few on the rest of the way. Surprising how close you can stay. I also did an all centers lineup and win a few. If I lose out on the seed and get knocked down I will try to win the top reward for real then I guess.


It is a video game and not realistic. I have to remind myself that. It is irritating when some young punk gets on the mike acting like they are gods gift to NBA2k17 just cuz they are beating me by 15 when nothing is working like normal. They are the same ones who quit before halftime if they are getting trounced. That isn't enjoyable to me. I play with the volume off most of the time actually now. It is better that way.


Sure wish that 2k would just own up to the stuff they are doing so we know. They say so little about this game and how to do it that it is frustrating to a casual user. Oh well I guess I am the sucker for spending more money than I should have to field a competitive team. I am done now though for sure. Will play with what I have and if I don't play then I probably will save myself some frustration too.
