Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season

Yeah Jimbo i know what you mean i feel the same, i dont know what i can bring to my game so i can keep up with the better players, i know have to improve my defense i think my zone is pretty good now so i like playing slow teams that pound the paint, but i dont have a clue on how to mark a team with balance, its showed in games against orlando, boston and nuggets. So i got to figure out how to defend an all around game.

But as for you jimbo id just suggest try improving your mid range game to be consistent with lagg, in the draft id suggest try to pick up some good shooters atleast one good shooter and a good low post presence and you should be set, your lost post game is good. Defensively i think you do fine, maybe just play around with some different defenses to adjust to mid range players as i have to myself.

Thanks for the feedback, I know this season my mid-range and perimeter game has been lacking. I think in terms of mid-range you are arguably the best player on the boards mate, your patience on offense has seen you beat Nenj and stay with guys like Digeze on a regular basis.

Thanks for the tips Ben, your defense is flat out good man. Yeah I'm intrigued to see what it will be like with a different team and players, it's a whole different ball game when you have players who can do what the current can't.
 
Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season

Hey Jimbo and Nick I'd have to play you and then straight away tell you about improvements because i really dont have a great memory :razz: but its all about the D i reckon, but im happy to play an exhibition game against you if you want sometime seeing i have no games left against you guys :)
 
Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season

Any thoughts on my game boys?

I can't fully remember both our games mate but I think from what I do remember - your fairly new to the game? So the first time I blew you out, second time I can't really remember.

When your new to the game though you just need to keep playing. Play lots of games against the computer and find out what your strengths are. For me I'm generally a swingman kind of guy, and that translates from playing against the comp, to playing online.

With more practice all facets of your game will improve. That said you've done a pretty good job using Westbrook and Durant. Harden launches too many 3's in my opinion, and it's not that he can't make them - but with 3's you need to get the right rhytmn and timing.

Other than that you probably need to develop your low-post game a bit as I can't remember many of your players scoring in double digits in the post. That's probably due to the Thunder not having great low-post players though, so before the next draft I would advise practicing with some higher rated bigs (80+) to see how you are controlling them as you would inevitably want to pick one.

I think for the team you have you are doing quite well.

I played you on day 1 of the season and my first reaction was that you were pretty good but forcing up too many 3's.

You were in plenty of close games but somehow skipped out to an 0-12 record which didn't reflect how you played at all. Have seen that you have now won 5 straight games and last night we were in a very tight game until it dropped out so i think you have figured out how to play with OKC quite well. You don't seem to force shots anymore and are quite competitive.

Your hand is sort of forced with OKC as your dominant inside presence is in the form of Kristic, Collison and BJ Mullens which forces you to have a killer outside game. You'll find if you can pick up a reasonable C in the draft your outside game can become even more effective.
 
Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season

Yep, at this stage it does look like the Sunday and Monday are the two days most likely. Still 16 more teams i haven't received feedback from so i'll send those teams a ps3 pm today if i get a chance.

Monday would be fanastic. I can't make this weekend as I'll be away on a retreat with my mates from Church. Friday Night - Sunday Night. So HOPEFULLY the draft won't be then cause I'll be a major player in next season and would hate for the comp to do mine :(
 
Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season

I'll give you a game tonight Nicko if your on, would love to get your feedback. I think i went alright with you the other night compared to the usual 50+ flogging's haha

Cheers boys, yeah definately lacking any real post players. The guys i have just can't hit shots inside when the d's on them and the rebounding seems a bit lacklustre.

You're right about the mid long range game OKC seem made for that style of play and i seem to be finding the righ times to shoot now aswell which has made a huge improvement in the game for me. Harden is a little too on/off, he can nail 6 3's straight then go cold instantly as with Durant he has his days. I really like Westbrook as his speed and passing ability is great but not a great defender.

I would love to play more exhibition games against you better players to trey and get my game on point so hit me up when ever im on ;)
 
Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season

I've had a pm from a kiwi enquiring about Season 2.

What's everybody thoughts? I know it's been advertised as an all-aussie league. NZ is practically Australia anyways isn't it?

How greatly will connections be affected?

Ive only played you once but as everyones said and i feel the same, when we played it felt like you were chucking up hard shots to make, it sort of felt like you were forcing it, but by the looks of it youve found spots your players can make shots and your starting to make your shots so next game should be a good one. Sucks because OKC dont have a presence inside, but id suggest use Ibaka for defense and DJ for inside there probably the better players even though there ratings dont show it.

As for the draft i think there will be a need for strategy to plan which players people will need to pick, some people wont be as lucky to get so many talented players and as deep as they are now, while others will pick up gems and really help them out. Myself personally will be looking probably first for an inside presence and a big defender, then i will put shooters around him, i dont know who exactly but thats my strategy going in.

Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season

Yer, just wondering if the lag issue would be that much different to being in Sydney and playing Howey in WA or someone else in Tasmania???
 
Re: PS3 NBA2K10 Online Season
