Official NBA2K9 Season 8 Thread of "Kobe do you polish yo rings"?

WITNESS2K9 said:
i joined a fantasy draft league a while back, i forgot to actually draft my players, the game just picked for me, and i ended up with shaq, beidrins, camby, dwight, tyson chandler, nick collison, chris mihms, and joe johnson. I had the best post game, good thing there wasnt PIP limit:lol :lol



i can't wait to draft my team, i got sixth pick. i should be able to get somebody good

another reason why i'm going to prerank my players just in case :lol

you and i will have tension tonight! we're next to each other

just fyi i probably cant play any games from the 13th-17th. but who knows...we might finish all our games before then!

btw fantasy drafts online snake drafts right???

Is LeBron really that much better than Kobe or Wade in this game? I mean most of his game is bullrun to the hoop, wouldn't that take away from your post men in terms of PIPs? I much rather have a great all around player that can hit jumpers. I am accepting offers for the number one pick :p

DCX
 
im picking all the rockets players.

edit: i'll open up a AIM chatroom when draft starts. easier for us to communicate, haggle/trade/hustle and know what each other are picking/thinking, etc.

my aim: viakado

we're going to raise the PIP limit anyways with the quarters pushed to 10 min (since there were less games) That'll give us real stats...

what do you guys think it should be now? i say 60

i just hate how they make lebrons shot release and free throw,i hope they imporve that in 2k10. LeBron could actually be effective i the post, i use him at PF sometimes.

damn 10 mins, i just hope i dont get to the 4th quarter and get disconnected, PIP should be pushed to at least 65-75 since you are basically adding an extra 8 minute quarter

Realistic stats? We are all going to run with all star teams! We should all be averaging round 100-120 a game. 8, 9 or 10 it won't change :p

DCX
 
I'm thinking 60 is fine. This is my logic:

32 min quarters / 50 PIP = .64 PIP per minute
40 min quarters / 60 PIP = .67 PIP per minute

Hold on...I'm not even sure if that's the right math or logic. Whatever I don't care I suck at math anyways.

Besides, most people averaged less than 40 PIP last season (if not all I think) so it won't be an issue, I think. As for minutes, 10 felt better than 9...just more even IMO. Dunno. Its an extra 4 minutes, no biggie. Hopefully people play more half court too!

Seeing how this is a tournament or w/e, I think 10 minutes would be good. It can be like an experiment to see how it works and when Season 9 rolls around for 2k10 we know if 10 minutes is just right or too much based of off this fantasy tournament.

I'll be ready to roll for the draft tonight. #2 pick is oh so lovely. Let's see what DCX does with his #1 pick. I've got counter moves to counter what he does, and counter-counter moves to counter the unexpected.

We ready!!

someone make a draft list please. and if its snake draft or not.

snake draft? what is that?

HEY LOW 2 said:
do u know the order of whole draft? i hope i get some back to back picks

When you log into 'GAF Tourney', you press I think RT and you'll go through a series of menus. One of those menus has the draft order. Nobody has back to back picks.
 
can't wait for 2k10

Sorry birdman you late ... :( it would've been great to see your quest of an all white team!

also, its a 10 game season and then best of 5 playoffs. so EVERY single one of your games matter!!!

looking forward to tonight :D
 
seemingly everyone has to be on tonight for the draft, why not just scrap this current league and create a new one to 12 teams so that birdman and chaotic can play.

Cause it's done and we would have to wait yet another day or so if we started a new one.

You have first pick so of course you don't want a restart.
You'd be correct sir, and so would everyone of us who ended up with the first pick, carry on.

im seriously still mad about that bulls pistons game. HOW DO I NOT TOUCH THE BALL IN THE FOURTH.

Fucking Smokey even admitted to playing off me cause you fuckers went into KoME mode so he went to double you guys.

Meanwhile im open behind the 3 point line waiving my hands and nothing.

The absolute best was me draining a fade away 3 in the last minute and i somehow cant get the last shot when i was WIDE OPEN. My bar couldnt have been more Red next to Ben Gordons name

In Fucking Credible

I was like 11-14 behind the 3 point line.

37 POINTS!

That was some Jordan All star game shit. Totally being blocked out.

eh team ratings dont mean too much. You can get up to an A in the first quarter just by setting screens

I realize right after me, Smokey, hunter, and Pheeniks beat TMNT, that the achievement for beating it with all 4 turtles actually probably means beating with YOURSELF with all 4 turtles. as in you gotta beat the game 4 times.

:lol

I did get the acheivement for killing the final boss without dying. All i did was stand in the corner the whole fight :lol

Ironically i came up the last minute and delivered the final blow :lol :lol :lol
