Seriously though, my player (3pt shooting SF) just runs to the corner and shoots nothing but 3's. You can't drive in 2k12, theres no point doing dribble moves because they do jack shit. Theres no point upgrading step backs because they cost sooo fucking much. So thats why i just shoot corner 3's as if i'm James Jones.
Hahaha, James Jones baby!! But yeah, driving to the basket & dribble moves in 2k12 defiantly seem to be less effective than in previous games.. Although I must admit in 2k11 I could drive, spin and score every time.. got fairly old fairly quickly.
I'm still chugging away with my my player. I've played every game (12 minute quarters) My stats (from the nba2k site) Career Stats GAMES 33 MPG 24.3 PPG 21.4 RPG 2.1 APG 5.5 FG% 0.4 3P% 0.4 SPG 0.9 BPG 0.5 TOPG 2.8 Obviously the minutes per game is affected when I was on the bench. I get about 36 minutes - 38 minutes a game. Looks like it only does shooting % to one decimal place which makes my FG% look shitter than it is (my 3pt% is good) We're 15-18 ATM and in 9th so looking good for a lower playoff spot.
Yeah, that's kinda annoying sometimes, but I've got to the stage where my guy is now rated 86 with 92 speed, 94 quickness and 90 vertical so he's an athletic machine, so driving isn't such a huge problem for me anymore. The only problem is that sometimes you try to layup and you pull up or you try to dunk and you do this retarded backwards layup instead of posterizing some poor cunt even though my guy really should. My game is driving these days, I drive and either go the layup, dunk or pass to Dwight or Bosh (fuck yeah free agency). If unsuccessful, I take open jumpers or iso when I've got some beast defender on me.
Well my guy was athletic so it was 90 to begin with I think. It's pretty useful sometimes though, like you iso on the right hand side of the bucket then use speed to get to the left and throw it down (left handed).
Fair enough, i just prefer to have 99 3pt and 99 mid shooting. Also finished my first season, playing every game. Finished 8th with the Jazz and got knocked out to the Thunder in 6. Won Rookie of the Season. Cleveland got 1st pick in the draft again and drafted a 7'6 centre rated 86
I'm still chugging along with my my player at the Knicks. We're 24-25 ATM, I've played every game (12 min quarters) We're in 8th so definitely hoping for a low playoff spot, then look to keep building next season. Loving my time here, after 49 games I'm really having fun. They suit my style (all offense - fastbreak scoring) I've won Player of the Week 3 times now, Player of the Month once and Rookie of the Month twice. Looking likely to play in the Rookie game and be Rookie of the Year. Step aside Irving.
