GAMEPLAY POSSIBLY FIXED.....CHECK OUT THE COACH SLIDERS AND TENDENCIES.

^^^^That is good stuff, Neon. The Nets are local, so I see most of their games, and that pretty much describes them right there. Yi, Vince and Simmons will jack it, but Dooling, Harris and Vince look to drive a LOT. Yi actually will take someone off the dribble if he sees the opportunity, but he (rightfully) believes in his stroke, so he'll shoot with space.

Yi TOTALLY slipped my mind. Which is crazy since i went as far as Jarvis Hayes and Josh Boone LMAO..



Yeah Yi if you give it to him, Yi is gonna take attempt that Mid all day long (99 tend, 79 mid rating), Slightly streaky through so its another guy you pay some attention to them but for the most part let him be. Kinda let him shoot without extra special gameplanning but if he starts effecting the outcome you better adjust. He can drive some and he's probably quicker than whoever you have at PF but he wont attempt it much.

IF you gameplan play tight, Never double.

Actually nver douvble ANYONE here unless Carter goes absolutely ape on you. I wouldnt suggest it though. If you try it in end quarter sitautions etc, do it manually and take a weak shooting perimeter guys defender and do it.

Yi? If he beats you, he beats you.

Carter and Harris.....You better gameplan son.

Remember im not deciding what to give players, im just giving them what thier player and team shot tendencies say to give them. You were probably unaware going in that the Nets play this way, so as you got accustomed to seeing mid range no attacking the paint they caught you by surprise. Brook Lopez averages 4.9 orebs per48. aka..a lot. Him being a big time off glass guy coupled with my crash boards being high, is what killed you. As you keep playing more teams you will start getting more familiar with each teams offensive and defensive styles, no gameplan and coaching defensive matchups on your part can be exactly the same for every team. They arent designed the same so YOU cant be the same. Id play off Devin Harris as he is looking to drive all game (74 drive tendency, 93 layup, 97 speed, 98 handle). He has NO RANGE (72 3pt, 79 mid) if hes at 3 who cares, if hes in mid range sag off but manually close out on him as you see hes getting ready to shoot. Hes streaky. Tight or Deny on Carter. He is also looking more to shoot the mid which hed kill you at (88 mid shot rating, 99 tendency) but he is also looking to drive (66) and 3ball (50 tendency at 79 rating). It kinda pick you poison with him. Force the drive and try and collapse, OR give him space if hes behind the three and let him chuck. If you wait too long and let him bury mids and get hot then its over for the game whether its mid or 3. If he gets hot you HAVEEEEE TOO go to deny as your only hope of him not shooting is by not letting him touch it. Tight on Bobby Simmons. He may not look like it but hes a deadly mid range shooter and a good 3pt man. He cant do crap else and cant dribble worth a crap, so play tight. Same goes for Hayes they are clones basically. Dooling can bury the mid. Hes quick but stuggles to finish in close unless he goes gangsta nd flushes on you (rare..take your chances). Play him like you would Harris. Anderson struggles in mid but hits the 3. If he beats you he beats you. Somebody has to be open. Lopez and/or Boone shouldnt do TOO much damage to you unless your letting him roam free for easy offensive putbacks. Knowing your opponent is always key. If you dont know who your playing they will burn you. You gotta take a look at at LEAST the starters tendencies by clicking their little screen thing (i think you can do it in game?) If you see somebody with a high tendency, see how good they are at it (check the coresponding actual rating for that tendency) and go from there. No big deal in quick games but for association you gotta prepare. They dont let you shoot uncontested either, so you will have a harder time connecting against them. Check the defensive pressures, if that teams is higher than average be prepared to shoot a lower percentage. It means they arent as prone to leaving you a bucketload of daylight. Like some teams do.

Ya, I figured they must have had some special offense. It was weird seeing it though. But the thing i was worried about is that somehow every team is gonna force in the paint and stuff but I just played a game against the Heat and they only had 38 PIP and didn't force. Wade was fun to watch though bro...41mins, 27pts, 6 asts, 2 stls, 8-18fg, 11-12ft lol. He was himself, also i notice he is very good at making contact and finishing. He actually pulled one of his circus and 1 things on me.

I will say I didn't know how to play the Nets, I just knew that Carter is a star and Harris likes to drive and junk. But I didn't know about anyone else on the team. So thanks bro, Ill take the advice when I play them again.

Its happen to me everyday for about 3 days now. When I try to connect it says its unavailable. It takes me about 2-3 times to get it working. One day I had to turn off my 360 then it worked.

I know what you mean. I've noticed it since yesterday afternoon. Guess I'll keep trying. Sorry it's been happening to you too jfrost, but glad to know that I'm not going crazy.

FT's drawn are part of my strength equation. Which apparently the A.I. doesnt care about if its applied to big men....Why bigs cant draw contact unless they are driving the lane..which looks weird btw....is totally beyond me.

Also for the guys that are driving constantly..even if you leave space try and set up for a charge. It doesnt always work but its worth a shot if you time it right.

Neon you were my last best hope for this game but alas it isn't meant to be. I just can't get into this game at all. I started 3 games with your roster and wound up turning the 360 off mid game of the 3rd. Just can't take this game anymore. When they called it the number one sim I thought they meant the action on the court was going to be sim not the fact that they are just going to use statistics to force an outcome and simulate a score.

Phantom blocks, rebounding through people, phantom "GOOD D" that makes me miss but nobody is around me, etc. etc. just kills the experience. Little thing like pushing my stick as hard as possible while I see my man casually walk the ball up court.

Played Knicks vs Clippers and Knicks vs Nets. Clippers game had shown some promise but then the unreal stuff started to happen. Then went with Knicks Nets because I forgot if you had actually done the Clippers yet or not.

Here's Devin Harris in real life:



Here's what 2K think Devin Harris can do



So as Harris concentrated and used his super powers he drove the lane at will no matter what I threw at him.

This game seems like it's more based on Dragon's Lair than fully controlled game of basketball. You move the stick left and your guy MIGHT move left, or spin around and go left, or do some weird twitching animation where he moves anywher but left or....
I don't know. I think this game has passed me by.
