	I found out last night from a number of people while playing 5 on 5 that you can prevent alot of lag(it seems to work too).... You have to turn off your mic (if you have one) while waiting for the game to start. While you are shooting around do not talk at all until the tip off. For what ever reason it seems to cause lag. Again its seems to work because I play 3 out 4 games with little to no lag when everyone muted there mics before the game...

Turning them back on once in the game shouldn’t cause any problems. This has been made aware to the people behind the patch. Thanks.

Start spreading the news! Don't use headsets until the game starts and it will save a lot of headaches.

Finally got into a game today. After about 10 tries since Saturday. Game was really good. The only time it lagged was near the paint when everyone was in the same area.

This isn't even a fix. First, I find it hard to believe that muting your mic really can have that dramatic effect on a game. Second, it's impossible to get all 10 people to do this.

I think this shows just how clueless 2K online is at the moment. This isn't a patch issue or a mic issue, it's a server issue.

Might as well give it a shot and tell as many people as you can about it. It's clearly a temporary fix, and the more people that know about it the better. Complaining won't really get us anywhere at this point, as 2k recognizes the problems with the game right now and is in the process of fixing these problems.
