Would that mean multiple versions of Jordan could be drafted since he has multiple ratings?Assemble! said:But can you start an Association with a fantasy draft that includes Jordan and the classic players?
ph33nix said:We have a full league. Can't you just do standard divisions/conferences?
I don't want to see any flaky ass shit now with the way you set up these things...
mbmonk said:I am really lost on the post play in 2k11. Can anyone explain some of the basic mechanics of post moves? I have watched videos on 2k10 post system is it the same for the most part? I kept hearing about a clutch button in 2k10 that has been removed in 2k11 it seems ( it's not in the demo ).
Here are the two videos I found explaining the post:
1) Shot Stick based: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zB7hZyr1MmM
2) More button based: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iaVeRr2YQc
Does this hold true, in general, in 2k11? A simple yes/no will suffice. I am going to try and test the moves in these video tonight if I have time.
Smokey said:We've always done custom divisions/conferences, even when we had a full league what are you talking about?
Yes. Post play in 2K is quite deep. Spin moves, fadeaways, up and unders etc.
ph33nix said:I can't remember the last time we had a full league.
But I see no reason to do custom stuff anymore. What's the point? I think its weird as fuck if I have to play a western conference team before I get to the "finals"
Unless you're scared of somebody and want to relegate them to a different conference...
just look at how it would naturally play out too. good mix of new people/vets in each division
Hmm which I like better. keep Phee out of the playoffs or take him out in the playoffs? Decisions.ph33nix said:I can't remember the last time we had a full league.

Then someone would try to trade and get multiple Jordans on their squad.Assemble! said:I didn't think about that. Jordan would be the first ten picks!
Jube3 said:Anyone know of any spots in the Seattle, WA area? I'm pretty sure I'm stuck waiting until Tuesday but just wanted to ask in case
seattle6418 said:Bummer, my copy will only get here on october 10th or later. I hope it gets here on time for the PS3 league.
You should be worried about some rookie comin up in the game and owning you over the course of the season. The league tournament will be a good indicator of where people are!charsace said:He has to make sure that me and him aren't in the same division.
LiveWire said:If the demo is any indication of the final product I'm going to get destroyed in this league. :lol
Also because I know two things about basketball: jack and shit.
ecnal said:you'll be fine.
Would this help any?LiveWire said:I just hope there's an alternate control scheme, I could not time that right stick shooting mechanism at all. Ron Artest isn't THAT bad of a shooter is he?

Suns probably shifted to sell/rebuild mode and were dumping salary.reaver18 said:All of those trades are terrible Robin Lopez and grant hill for songaila and Thornton? Lmao
The Nash trade is even worse.
Team Building & States
The core system that has been added to the AI this year is one called Team Building. This system actually oversees the other systems (which Ill detail below). As the name implies, this system is responsible for building the strongest team possible with respect to the style employed by the coaching staff. The first step in building a successful team is identifying what the teams current goals are. This year, our AI classifies a team into one of the following four Team States:
- Contending: This is a team that has the pieces to win the title. They wont be overly active on the market as they dont want to disrupt their chemistry, but they certainly wont let an advantageous trade slip by should one present itself. When you think Contending team, think the Lakers.
- Buying: This is a team that is a step below the contending teams, but is only a solid acquisition or two away from being able to take that next step. The AI will actively pursue an upgrade to any deficiencies in its starting lineup and/or the first few players off the bench. If the piece is a perfect fit, the team will often mortgage the future to get that player. When you think Buying team, think the Blazers.
- Selling: This is a team whose window has closed and they are clearly trying to move their aging/bad contracts for youth/picks. Its not common for a team to be in this state long in our game, or in the real NBA. When it happens though, its best to strike while the iron is hot. When you think Selling team, think what the Wizards did last season or what the Celtics and Spurs will be doing in approximately 12-24 months from now. Sorry Celtics and Spurs fans. Reality is coming soon
- Rebuilding: A large portion of the NBA teams tend to live in this state for long periods of time. This is seen in our game as well. Rebuilding teams are, simply put, looking to upgrade their rosters. They are looking to build through the draft, through free agency, and through trades. Rebuilding teams arent interested in your aging, overpriced 35-year old guard. If you are going to offer one up to a rebuilding team, they are going to value him quite low (unless you pair a nice draft pick alongside him), meaning youll be getting pennies on the dollar for him. When you think Rebuilding teams, think the Timberwolves, Wizards, Kings, etc.
Teams are very cognizant of what state they are currently in, and they will update their state as their rosters change. The entire logic for the mode this year is designed around this logic model, and its implementation has paid off in spades. Youll see that as we move through the rest of the logic systems.
Don't be mad when I blow you out and I'm still pulling up for 3's on the fastbreak in the 4th.ph33nix said::lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

Or if you're highly skilled like I am.Smokey said:Rule is to only use x button to shoot...use shot stick for everything else (post moves, and shots around the basket).
Using shot stick online to shoot jumpers is asking for trouble.

RS4- said:Things that I don't like:
- For the longest time that I've been playing 2k, plays still take ages to start
mbmonk said:That sucks. I was really looking forward to running plays and trying to find plays that look similar but have different wrinkles. But if they take so long to start it can really limit you.
RS4- said:And I think there are different sets of initial plays depending if you call them in the back court of front court.
Smokey said:We've always done custom divisions/conferences, even when we had a full league what are you talking about?
Shurs said:Why?
