NBA 2K13

What I hate the most is passing to a guy under the basket, then apparently a defender touched it so not only did I get a negative for a tipped pass, but also got bad pass but the ball went straight to him so I didn't even know it was tipped until it flashed up on the screen and then the guy makes the basket and it doesn't count as an assist, cost me an assist like 10 times now

Yeah I've had that happen a few times, worse is there's a guy under the basket open and despite holding towards him you end up passing it to someone contested and turning it over. Weirdest turnover i've had though was a team mate dropped a rebound and it went out of bounds, i got the turnover for it despite well it was a missed shot...

Or the guy under the basket has no idea what a pump fake is and get easily blocked, SMH

I've had about 4 turnovers from inbound passes, not from me, the CPU teammates

Yeah I've had a couple where they've passed it into the back of an opposition player and I got it too. Seems to love picking you to cop the turnover. Tried out CAL to see if play running works, doesn't in that either it seems, but it is a lot of fun to play as Bosh.

Just noticed Bow Wow sitting front row of the Cavs game watching me play since he's a fan of mine now lol, quality stuff

Got my second trip-dub in a row. 16/10/41 against Detroit

F***ing love this game.

Is that 41 assists? hahahaha

Pisses me off to no end how Rubio a few years into MyCareer is suddenly the best jumpshooter in the NBA making everything

Liking the shit out of it, like you once did every post.

Those were the days...

Haha, yeah. Got Aldridge 55 points that game. Pick n roll is deadly with LMA and Hickson.

Also, my player is averaging 17.3/4.2/13.1. I pressed 'play next key game' which meant I only skipped one game, and suddenly I'm coming off the bench

 

[zimma]

41 assists, that sounds a bit ridiculous... What difficulty you running on?

 

[silverscope]

I've been so busy lately that I've barely had any time to sink into this game. Can't wait for last assignment (wed) then it's ball time

 

[Shade]

Why is everyone that plays this game online such a tit, playing a guy right now and all he is doing is shooting 3's with James Harden how fun

Have had to start a new MyCareer because my first one froze. So annoying, I put in so many hours into the first one.

Pain in the ass really. I've changed the way I've gone about it for the second time round. I made another PG, 6'7 this time though. Time for a bit of cheese.

Answered the GM's questions with all the wrong answers just to see what happened. Was projected at #13 to the Suns, ended up going to the Cavs at pick 24. Kind of sucks because it means I'll be playing behind Kyrie all season. Time to demand a trade to the Heat or Knicks for the lulz.

 

[Dez!]

Getting sick of the benching crap, seriously needs a patch to fix this.

Recommended some players and got one, the Bulls traded Luol Deng to the Raptors but I didn't think they would trade Lowry for him. It is good though because DeMar doesn't like to shoot and neither does Lowry oddly enough but Luol isn't afraid to pull the trigger and is a good shooter as well, also just asked them to piss off Amir Johnson.

Bargnani is out for the season with MCL tear and I tried to get JV some more minutes because he's a beast in this game despite being underrated in it.

FIX THE F***ING MINUTES ISSUE 2K!!!!!!!!

How did it freeze?

Just wondering

So the Rockets in my game just traded out Morris and Parsons and traded in Bargnani and Gray. Pretty damn happy they picked up Bargnani to take the starting C role. In the process though Delfino got the starting SF role and somehow the most minutes in the team while I'm down to 21 per game despite leading the team for scoring

Still feel kind of bad for Asik, gone from starting center to a role player with 2 minutes per game.

Still fighting for the ball on my Blazers team. Lillard goes off and in his second year, is currently lead the MVP race with something like 18ppg, 4rpg, 8apg while shooting 50%.
Have been picking up a lot of fouls lately as I've been pushing a lot of blokes over looking for position in the post. Damn Floppers!!
Have been trying relentlessly to get Batum traded as he just goes Iso everytime he gets the ball. My team also has a lot of SF's including Harkless whom I asked to trade in, but he gets no minutes.
Have bumped my dunk rating up to 85 and my standing dunk to 79 and now my player is a beast once he gets in the lane.
Will keep you posted on the amazing career of Trent Snow...

Or find him on Twitter @SnowyT.

 

[zimma]

Haha I've cracked mine into top 10 in the nba for scoring, leading the race for Rookie of the Year but not in Allstar contention Starting to work on my defensive stats now, on baller D and block right now, see if i can ditch some of these "let man score" negs. Pisses me off my guy is literally that terrible at D he trips over his own feet and on a screen gets sent to his ass. Turned out my on ball defense was like 25, strength 25 or something like that.

Haha my twitter has been great lately, I play the team player on press conference, twitter fans and commentators talk about how the team lets me down, I carry them on my back, I should leave. Although one was great, lost to the Bobcats and had one talk about how much it hurt to lose to a shit team basically.

I can never pick which responses in PC's will get what reaction in terms of teammate and fan chemistry!!
If I'm modest, my team seems to like it, but the fans get annoyed and if I'm cocky, it's the opposite.
Sometimes I just go for the sarcastic responses to get a reaction.

 

[Footypie32]

Oh and after doing a nice dunk during a game, I'm gettin followed by Nique!

After getting into my third season, I met with the GM to discuss a contract extension. After accepting a 3 year deal, for some reason it decided to sim through about 30 games. It then asked me which players I wanted to acquire for the team, which I completed. After doing that the team made a trade with Portland (Rudy Gay for LMA). After that trade, no matter whether I select 'Play next game' or 'Play next key game', it simulates through another 20-odd games before the whole system freezes.

I'm hoping its a glitch that 2K are aware of and are able to fix with a patch, because if not I'll have wasted all those hours getting to a 90 OVR rating.

 

[Barnzy]

Finally made a MyPlayer (6'4 PG). Tanked the rookie game and interviews hoping to get to a good team but ended up at the Thunder who now have Westbrook, Maynor, Jackson and me as PG's. Not very smart logic from the game there. Although they did say in the interview they want to turn me into a SG to pair me with Westbrook (cya Harden?).

Not sure if I'll stay or not. Might go to a worse team to try and carry them. Might make it more fun. Annoying position bugs are still there. In certain games have been shifted to SF and that's bad enough but also at times I've been made to play PF. That's ridiculous.

As someone at an average team and trying to carry it's frustrating as hell when you're about to carry the team to a win and you get benched... Rockets are going to miss the play offs, definitely tanking.

Ah ok that ****ing sucks, has anyone progressed past their third year after getting their new contract? Not during the year I mean after it in the offseason?

Definitely frustrating when you build a 12 point lead, get subbed then come back in 2 minutes later only being 2 points in front, has happened to me so many times now
