    Default Re: Some of NBA 2k9 Questions for you?

    I usually pick the Nuggets.

    I'm on my way to a perfect season. I think I'm around 24-0. No cheating. Other teams just suck. I have 2K9 for the PS2, so they didn't make it so that it's actually challenging. I play on Hall Of Fame difficulty, all sliders down to around 35 and I still always win by around 25-40 points a game. They should've fixed that. Kinda sucks. Gets boring after awhile. Just once I would love to play a competitive game.

    Usually I play Association.

    My starting lineup right now is:

    Billups
    JR Smith
    Melo
    KMart
    Nene

    Bench:
    Balkman
    Weems
    Andersen
    Ramon Sessions
    Richard Hendrix (rarely plays)
    Olowokandi (used when I want a tall lineup)
    Dahntay Jones

    What team do you play as? usually Suns or Raptors. I try to play as as many teams as possible so I can try to rebuild a team/perfect a team

    Have you ever had a perfect season, on any difficulty level? (without Cheating)-Nope.

    Do you play the Season, or Association more?-Never even played Season

    Because I'm undefeated halfway through the season, & I'm under the cap. Plus I have half of the team expiring in the offseason, which would allow me to get a few better upgrades.

    Not a bad team except at the Center spot. Trade that Italian.

    Since you play as the Nuggets a lot, checkout Steven Hunters. Dude looks exactly like Kobe. Had me laughing so hard when I first noticed it and thought it was Kobe on the Nuggets.

    I just started association with Rockets.
    pg - sebastian telfair
    sg - tracy mcgrady
    sf - ron artest
    pf - luis scola
    c - yao ming
    landry, lowry, battier and horry from the bench. don't trade my players besides brooks for telfair (he's a baller). I play on the one before the hardest difficulty (superstar?) and is like 17-4. What pissing me off is that James has been player of the week for 6 straight weeks and prolly gonna win MVP

    I don't play with any one team more than the others. I play the Association. I usually pick bad teams, or teams that haven't done anything for the past 10-15 years and try to build them into contenders. I don't play a single game, I'm more into the management side of things, so I simulate everything. I build through the draft, and sign a free agent or two on the rare occasion. I also put some players through the development mode. Right now I'm running the Warriors. I traded Monta Ellis to the Pacers for a draft pick and an expiring contract. I traded S-Jax, Maggette and Biedrins as well. Start from the ground up. After the first year and winning 20 games, I got the fourth overall pick. I drafted a white pg out of North Carolina. He was rated 80. After the next season, he averaged 17,5,5. Pretty good for a rookie pg, and is now rated an 84. I'm hoping he will be similar to J-Kidd, but with more points.

    3. Association is much better.

    What's your current line up?

    Mine is

    PG: Jordan Farmar (he gets into the 90s after a couple of seasons), Sergio Rodriguez and Sun Yue.

    SG: Kobe Bryant and Bruce Bowen (I wont be re-signing him)

    SF: Lamar Odom, Trevor Ariza and Adam Morrison (great shooter on the game)

    PF: Pau Gasol and Josh Powell

    C: Andrew Bynum and some rookie which I'm hoping to make good (I think his name is something Allen).
    1. Im currently playing with the Pacers
    2. In my First Season so Far i am 32-27 Played about 30% of the Games

    3. I love association mode but i miss bringing players from collegehoops to the pros. Right now im trying to edit my draft picks to mirror the mock drafts to have real college players.

    PG : T.J. Ford/Jarrett Jack/ Marcus Williams
    SG : Marquis Daniels/Brandon Rush
    SF : Danny Granger/ Micheal Dunleavy Jr. ( Starts at the 2 70% of the time)
    PF : Troy Murphy/Jeff Foster
    C : Rasho Nesterovic/ Roy Hibbert

    I plan on making some major Roster changes and probably moving up in the Draft to Get Either a better Rebounding Power Forward Blake Griffin if another 2 guard like Wayne Ellington.

    I just got 2k9 and a PS3 like 3 weeks ago...and i cant believe how friggin real that game is. And how hard it is. Im on pro level and can barely win games...

    Any, i play in Association Mode (easing my way into the levels) currently at PRO (on the pS2 and 2k8 i played in hall of fame and never lost) I must admit i like that it is hard cause its makes it challenging.

    I play with the NETS and tried to keep all the guys on the team the same except that they kept losing. So i made some changes. 1. I created a player named Dave Blaise (blaze) which is basically me...(lol) He is a 6'9 SF/PF rated at 86 to keep things fair, I didnt want to create a superstar but a good player. After I was still losing with Dave Blaise, i decided to pickup a Free Agent. I picked up Patrick Ewing Jr in FA. He was ranked at 68...I did edit his ratings however, and then he was ranked at 84 (is that cheating?) He plays great but we were still losing...

    I waived Yi, Simmons, Ager, Hassel. And placed Hayes, Najera, and Dooling on the trading block. I wanted to keep Hayes, Najera, and Dooling but their Morale was unsatisfied. So i said F it if ur unsatisfied Im trading u. The Warriros offered me Maggette for Dooling, so i took it. The Grizzlies offered my Q. Ross for Najera, i added Hayes in there for Ross and Hakim Warrick, they rejected it, but i forced the trade. And I then picked up Shaun Livingston which was a FA and signed to the Thunder...i picked up Smush Parker in FA but traded him for Livingston.

    current roster is

    PG- Harris/Livingston
    SG- Carter/Ross/CDR
    SF- Maggette/Ewing Jr.
    PF - Dave Blaise/ Hakim Warrick/ Anderson
    C - Lopez/ Williams

    you guys think im cheating with that forced Warrick trade? I mean hes only ranked at 73...

    Started with an Association file from Operation Sports that had all the rookies created, resigned as Bobcats and took the Clipper job, simmed it for a whole season, ended with the #7 pick, drafted Demar Derozan, and Dejuan Blair, Mardy Collins, Fred Jones, Ricky Davis, Brian Skinner all decided to test free agency. Signed Shaun Livingston in FA for the MLE. Traded Marcus Camby for Tyson Chandler (basically got a younger shotblocker/rebounder)

    Depth Chart

    C: Chris Kaman/Tyson Chandler/Deandre Jordan
    PF: Zach Randolph/Dejuan Blair/Steve Novak
    SF: Al Thornton/Demar Derozan/
    SG: Eric Gordon/Shaun Livingston
    PG: Baron Davis/Mike Taylor

    Basically using a 8 or 9 man rotation depending on who im matching up against
