After reading this thread I gotta go listen to old TLC songs now, like a b**** ... smh.

Kyle Singler is still really underrated and I don't know how you can raise Dwight Howard before updating the missing players on the Timberwolves. These roster updates are a joke!

Not saying Roy doesnt deserve it, just saying Larry does as well.

I'm going to sound like a hypocrite, but I believe that Larry Sanders should have increases in his defensive attributes and be the ONLY center to have the Lockdown Defender signature skill based on what you posted. Now, I WILL admit that I don't watch the Bucks other than when they play the Pacers, but beyond Larry Sanders the Bucks just don't seem like a "defensive" team like Indiana, Memphis, Boston, Chicago, etc. They have a defensive rating of 102.1 and an offensive rating of 101.1. The translation is that the Bucks will outscore their opponent long before they "lockdown" their opponent with defense, but Sanders' individual defensive effort shouldn't be ignored.

Having a Center with the Lockdown Defender combined with the Eraser skill is an interesting concept. The player will be able to make game changing blocks (due to the high BLK rating and Eraser signature skill) while not being affected by the Finisher, Closer, Shot Creator, etc signature skills.

Have you tweeted the 2K Insider?

2k should also remove certain players from the roster and put them on the injured list. Kobe, Melo, Chandler, ect. Haven't been playing.

# 66 DWades House @ 03/19/13 01:43 PM

Does anybody know if you get losses for quitting before tip-off ? im tired of facing people who raise all their coaching sliders, it just unnecessarily fast paced and its a pain to to just keep trading baskets all game.

Can you quit after you see your opponents adjust settings ? and not get a loss ?

Cool, I like to try to use the pacers online cuz I dont use the elite teams but Im so bad with their releases. Id like to see Joahkim Noah get this skill as well, hes having a ridiculous defensive season.

Wait ...Noah doesn't have defensive anchor ? lol wtf even Haslem has defensive anchor. 2K Insider is weird.

# 70 UnfriendlyBG @ 03/19/13 03:14 PM

I know right lol.

He has scrapper, post playmaker, hustle points, and bruiser. he totally deserves defensive anchor or some people like haslem dont deserve it =P

It's kinda hard playing as the team you root for when they're ranked 28 in everything.

I agree the Wizards in general need some touch ups. I play with them a lot and I watch ALL the games. Since Wall has been back and generally how much better the team operates on offense, he should have Floor General. Nene Should have Post Proficiency. My boy Martel....... The fact is hes broken... 85-90 percent of my ALL Green shot feedback shots don't go in. He also needs to have Spot Up Shooter and Corner Specialist. Because that's what he does. Anytime he catches the ball standing still outside the 3 he hits it. The fact that he leads the league in 4 pt plays might even suggest he deserves dead-eye. His 3 rating is fine. I think it might be the consistency rating that has him broken. Well a lot of players in general. AJ Price needs some sort of boost too. He cant make a shot half the time, especially with that ugly animation they gave him. Basically My Wiz Kids need some buffs. They have been playing stellar ball since the All-Star Break in some areas like defense.

i believe he got some boosts a few updates back

# 76 theycallmeZZ @ 03/21/13 12:20 AM

Nope. The boost only happened because of his position change (he was set to C earlier in the season, then he became the starting PF once Davis was traded)

But it wasn't given by 2k, was it? The game automatically notches a player up or down if their position is changed

# 79 xVenomx91 @ 03/21/13 02:53 AM

# 80 Guard-ian @ 03/21/13 08:24 AM
