gg.

how did beasley always leak out for a wide open shot on the fast break?

are you manually selecting him and running down the court? seemed like a bunch of times he was all the way down the opposite side of court with the next closest players @ half court.

I have my fastbreak slider turned to max along with my offensive tempo.

Beasley's always the first guy on the break down court and I have his release down pat so I can nail the threes with relative ease. :D

also, his post game is BEASTly. I can abuse smaller SFs in the paint or I can take bigger PFs off the dribble and drive into the paint.

Smokey please reset my game with the bucks. Got off to a great start and get a disconnect. Why doesn't this happen when I'm getting run on? God is truly cruel.

Think I'll go play counterstrike source which I play all last night with no problems.

I've had verizon techs in my house test it out and they said there was no problem. The only other thing I can do is get the governing body of Engineers to come in and measure my distance from the dsl hub.

Regarding the Nuggets/Lakers game that took place this evening. When I look online it looks like DarkQberto went well over the P.I.P. limit. therefore gets a default loss in this game.
Unless Aka wants to come in here and tell me why I shouldn't do this.

I went over the limit in one of our seasons of 2k8 last year by 8 points and took the loss and it wound up keeping me out of the playoffs.

Rules are rules.

what if he scored 18 second chance points though? i dont see it in the box score.


also, PIP should be a percentage, not a set limit. what you're saying is that if there is a game that ends 62-61, and someone scores 50 of those 62 points in the paint, it's ok. but if the final score were 121-120, but the winner had 55 points in the paint, he gets the loss? it just doesn't make sense. it should be relative to the final score, not a set limit.

the point in monitoring that is to prevent paint cheese but it can still be had so long as its a low scoring game. change the rule or just go by the honor system i say!

Rule is 50 PIP.

Here's the deal. I'm trying to figure out if the total PIP that you see on the site includes 2nd chance points. You can see that fastbreak points are not counted because they have their own category. I'm not sure on 2nd chance though.

If I strictly go by what the website says then it's very easy to monitor PIP and not have to think about 2nd chance points. Just look at PIP see if it's less than 50 and move on.

wow that sucks. i'd agree with you that rules are rules, and you should be given the win, but FMT has a valid point. we can certainly agree the 50 pip barrier is a rule to prevent cheesing, but definitely it could be improved upon. For i.e., you can win with your score around 65points and have a total of 50PIP where over 75% of your basket is from the paint. That in my book is borderline exploit/cheesing.
I belive the PIP limit should be relative to the final score(dynamic relativity). What if we change up the rule where a total number of PIP cannot exceed more than 40% of your total score. Of course you'll have to subtract 2nd chance points.
what do y'all think?

in our last game you had ~73% of your points in the paint... :lol

but seriously, i think it has to be dynamic, but at what percentage?

on a side note, sorry bout that fivering--i was afk. we'll play later.
