Do that steez Dena mang, such a fantastic series.

Has anyone been the 2012 USA team?

I need this gameeeee.

Allen's 3 pointers, gawddd

Why are the best players so often on the bench, is it down to tactics or some shit, like why isn't LeBron playing all the time, is it too tiring? Fuck.

auto subs brah

I know but, why, I see players sitting out a fair bit in real life too, is it just so they can attack specific parts of the game with their best players?

"The foul thing is more impressive to me," James said at Saturday's shootaround ahead of the Heat's matchup against the Utah Jazz. "I don't care about scoring as much."

"If I wanted to, I could lead the league in scoring, but that's not my job here,"

gawd

Too tiring, LeBron could play 48 minutes a night if he wanted to, but it wears you down and the season is quite long, they also play more minutes during the playoffs of course, you have to keep your guys fresh.

EDIT:

Minutes are usually broken down like this. (For superstars)

Start the game, play most of the 1st quarter, sub them out with 2-3 minutes left in the 1st.

Start the 2nd quarter on the bench, bring them in after 3-5 minutes, play the rest of the 2nd Q.

Halftime.

Start the 3rd quarter, play most of the 3Q, try to get 3-5 minutes of rest here at the end.

Start the 4th Q on the bench, try to get a few minutes here, like 3 minutes or more if you can sneak it, play the rest of the game.

Now all this depends on the score, in a perfect world you want to get your guy as much rest as possible, but most superstars end up playing at least 35 minutes out of 48

I see.

I just hit a half court basket by a mistake.

So theres unlimited subs then?

I got one from my own key by mistake.

Getting better, I'm currently playing 5 minute quarters, LeBron just played 17 minutes of the 20 and hit 32 points and 3 assists, honestly Allen is so on point, 22 points for him beautiful 3 after 3, final score 72-60 seems weird but it's only 5 min quarters.

What do you lot play on minute wise?

Me and my friends play 48 minutes

Allen is the leading 3PT shooter in NBA history btw so he'll always rain it down from there.

I only play 5 a quarter.

I'm gonna cry because this game is amazing.

In a 48 minute match and it's 76-84 at halftime.



Nelson and Redick.

heat v jazz lulz if heat don't win i'll shave my anus with a blade

I remember when I played 2k5 or something with my cousins. We used to put it on the easiest difficulty, put all our settings at 100 and just take 3s the whole game.

Heat are gonna get got. Bosh is out so they are undersized, Utah's big men will eat em for breakfast.

Don't sleep on Utah, got good bigs, something Miami may have a problem to deal with.

Finally bumped up my player to 11 rebounds per game, averaging a triple double

I don't know how KG got the third most votes for a front court player so far, only off of reputation. Duncan deserves to start the All Star game.

what the fuck do i know

They were saying that actually in the first quarter Jazz were raining 3's too and I was a bit worried for my blade situation.

30 points, nine rebounds and seven assists for Lebron.

Finding my rhythm with Wade now too, putting up a lot more shots and actually defending pretty well:



I think Lebron broke the knicks, they're 1-1 but after that they might as well stop, look at the consistency in my quarters. New Yawk City did not enjoy that.

Man 2k13 career thing with your player is fun, I got drafted with OKC, Durant da GAAAAAAAWWWWWWDDDDDDDDDDD

What pick were you Kyro?

Something in the mid 20's I think, I was sooooooo bad in the rookie game. I can't play properly with my guy he's so shit.

My gameplan at the moment is pass to KD

What was the score in the heat game?

In the rookie game I was also awful but I got traded to the 76ers on 2k12

I really improved when playing for them.

What difficulty do you play on?

I didn't even know there was a way to change it, just looked and I play on Pro.

Trent wrote:I didn't even know there was a way to change it, just looked and I play on Pro.

In this so far I've been playing on All-Star which is the one just above Pro and we're 7-0.

KD averaging 31 points a game, I'm averaging 4.7 points a game and 1.7 assists. At this moment just trying to do my duties in defence and keep the ball moving.

I get so much more pleasure playing on the road man, going to Chicago and destroying the bulls felt good.
