Same as it ever was.

ya, i mean that post of mine wasn't really necessary considering it's 2K we're talking about. they just fucking upgraded their dreamcast era servers.

still sucks that we, as a league and collective group, haven't been able to overcome the same lame ass shit we've all seen, experienced, and hated since 2K9.

Milo we'll probably have to shoot for tomorrow to play. Graduated yesterday and having a party today so I won't be available at all. And CB came back and won the series down 2-0?!

see? you've got a reputation as a whiner. go you

and yes he came back. after i went down 2-2 and then 3-2 i basically asked him to finish me off, lebron/celtics style...i "tried" but didn't give enough of a shit

also, i could never get a perfect release on a wide open shot, but only contested ones. so fucking frustrating

i also noticed the animation where someone shoots a jumper, and they fall after the jumper, it always goes in :lol

not entirely true, although when i fall for a pump fake on Dirk and he enters a standing fallaway jumper, thats automatic :/

Well, not ALWAYS, but often. I've had Paul Pierce miss about an equal number of those "falling down" shots as he's made, each with "green" release indicators.

Anachronous not sure what is up with Chars I sent him an aim message last night you were looking for him no response. He disappears once the playoffs starts. :lol

Yeah, IDK. I got an XBL and AIM msg from him, apparently just after midnight EST last night saying he was around. But I had already gone to bed, since I hadn't heard anythIng from him and had no idea when/if I could expect to see or hear from him.

I'm doing everything I can to make myself available.

Finally good enough to get back on here. Interesting ish happening in these playoffs so far. Lets get next season going soon especially now that Yao won't be playing lol
 
sorry about the dc bobby, you were beating my ass anyways. you can have the final game of the series. this game has become a frustrating experience. maybe it's because i suck or the suns suck, but i just see too much ridiculous shit every game. thunder players picking off passes when they have no business seeing them, retard defenders rotating to "help" on a guy and leaving a wing player wide open, jumbled pick plays that my guys can't defend, timing seems to change on my shots from possession to possession, i go up for shots with a guy in the air and somehow he kicks it out of my hands and recovers, etc etc.

just don't feel like dealing with the randomness of the game. i can usually deal with sports games flaws so long as i know what to expect. but sometimes this game has no rhyme or reason as to why things happen and no consistency on the happenings!

Our game dropped in the 3rd, with me down 11. Latency was UNBELIEVABLE ... there wasn't a trip down the court that I didn't have a "waiting for opponent" message come up. I've NEVER had an issue with latency that was that bad. Yuck.

Not sure if this is a reset situation or what. We'll try again tomorrow.

ugh. GG and series Bird. Mavs are deep :/ All thier guards can hit threes, Butler can go into streaks where he makes everything, contested or not, and Dirk :( Oh, three 7 footer rotations. Fuck me :(

Amar'e worked so hard this series. Crawford let me down the last two games and my PG play was spotty. I did the best i could with the rag tag team i had. With all of that said i had my chances to take this series.

GM 1 let down. Stone cold in the fourth.
GM5,6 Stone cold in the fourth :( I would go on stretches missing 5-10 in a row. Shawn Marion blocking Amar'e in the post, fast break streaking towards the basket and a stupid suck in animation makes me go into context contact missing me the layup or jumper and no foul,i hate that bullshit.

I drove the wideopen lane with Ridnour only to be devoured by Dirk at the rim, no foul, no nothing.

Dirk in the post against either a 6'9 AK, 6'10 STAT or 6'10 Gallo with the Center contesting the shot perfectly on a fadeaway..Pryzbilla or Thomas, both seven footers, made every single one. Come on now, Dirk is good, but in 2k that should always make it at least 50/50.

Oh well, more time for me to play games other than league games.

Bird, you played well. Well fought, hope i earn some respect points :) Peace out.

It was definitely good series. I finally figured out how to effectively use Dirk in the post, and I got his shot timing down right before the playoffs started. I haven't used him in the post hardly at all this season, but I tried to go to it early when I saw Gallo matched up on him. When I saw how well it was working, I decided to keep going to it. It also helped that Terry finally started knocking down shots., and when he was cold Roddy B seemed to step up.

I think the biggest difference was Tyson Chandler's defensive play in the post...especially in the 4th qtrs. His rating is pretty terrible (he's still rated worse than Haywood), but he was able to get a few key blocks late in a couple of games to help close out.

Chars ... I can run after 9PM and can start a game as late as 11PM EST.

Please reboot your router, or make sure the torrents aren't running ... or whatever was going on last night. That was horrible lag!

Wait ... I'm the jerk for wanting a better connection than one that results in "waiting for opponent" messages every time down the court?

SURE THING.

Humble apologies, folks, inexcusable how long it's been since I've been able to pop in. Just found out my LIVE expires tomorrow, I'll look into getting another year (if I haven't been removed from the league yet :D). From the sound of the discussion we're into the playoffs?
