If you guys are playing in the post and notice you're getting stripped a lot or racking up turnovers... it's because your actual abilities are too low. For example I kept losing the ball on spin move attempts and found out my post spin move ability was "poor". I upped it to "average" and now I never turn it over. These abilities are extremely expensive but pick 1 or 2 and max it out.... basically as go to moves. Makes it so much easier.
Don't know if I'll ever play a wing again. Post game is SO fun once you figure it out and find your niche. I love spin move dunks, skyhooks and Dirk style 1 foot fadeaways out of the paint. It's addicting as hell. Plus I just had a nasty chase down block on Paul Pierce who had a big headstart on me. This game rocks.

Yeah whenever I tried to fast break I lost the ball.
If you play just the key games, do the games get simulated up until that point? I wonder how it works.
Yup. Not only that but they accumulate skill points for you based on your performances and milestones as if you played the games! I averaged 9 and 9 in my first season. Since I'm a Sixer and center I have the least amount possible of key games I think. I only have to play Celtics and Knicks. Playoff games too when I make it. To solve all the turnovers you need to boost abilities not skill points. Whenever I get a huge chunk at once that's what I buy. If I get like 4k or less at a time I just do skill points.

How many key games did you have during reg season?

9. First game of my career and then 4 vs Knicks and 4 vs Celtics. I'm in month 2 of my second season which is awesome because I get to negotiate for contract in offseason.
So hard to get to the rim. Played like 5 minutes of the Showcase then quit. Will finish tomorrow.
You'll get used to it. Completely different game and physics dude. I prefer it this way. Way more realistic. To get to rim you actually have to work now.
Accidentally discovered possible cheese. I was up 2 and the Nets had to foul me. So I got it and ran to the line hoping to shoot a 3 just as they tried to foul and get 3fts. But when I pumpfaked Deron jumped back so he wouldnt foul me. I just pump faked every time he went to wrap me up and ran out 19 full seconds holding him off by pump faking the 3 when he would approach me. I felt terrible but I had to know if it worked or not....
only thing i dislike is that the team i got drafted too loves trading
was drafted pg of the raptors.. so i was thinking ok.. me, derozan, ed davis
but then they all get traded.. they all got traded to different teams, got harden and nazr from okc.. and got udoh from gsw. so completely different team cuz of our trigger happy gm.
The Bucks traded stephen jackson for Odom and fisher then me and Odom together to the Hawks for Joe Johnson...who I later played on the Bobcats...who also have Chris Paul.
my player is so much easier this year. last year i got destroyed in my player mode, could barely make it out of the d-league.
this time i made a 6'4" 3pt specialist pg. I ended up getting drafted by the thunder, who made me come off the bench behind westbrook and harden for the first half of the season. then i started playing only key games and the team went on like a 15 game win streak on sim mode. at some point the thunder also traded away westbrook and harden for d rose, which seems strange obviously chicago would never trade away rose. i started putting up big numbers on the last few key games of the season vs the blazers and warriors. ended up getting rookie of the year and sixth man of the year as well as rookie first team.
just now finished my first two playoff games vs the lakers. i got moved to starter for the first game of the playoffs, so the starting lineup is me, drose, durant, collison, okafor. First game i put up 46 points, second one 35, thanks to jacking up tons of 3s. I cant make a layup unless there is no defender within 15 feet but i make it rain from outside.

Re: NBA 2K12: My Player Mode
. The intelligence of the CPU trading is SO bad. They literally shuffle the roster nonstop!
