Don't Forget How Many Time-outs You Have Left in NBA 2K15, You Can Get a Tech

you could do this in NBA Live 97 for the SNES, randomly remember it. lol

fifa 14 has that too. they've got like 40+ refs that will call the game their own way (some are more lenient with regular fouls while some are super harsh with anything). they're not all unique but a lot are

I think there should be an option to react to a call:
A) running away - random tech
B) stare at the referee (X) - random tech, less likely tech
C) talk to him (triangle) - random tech, likely tech
D) make hand signals (O) - random tech, more likely
E) go nuts / throw tantrum (square) - tech!

This is true for all refs.
I hope 2K is taking notes. Or maybe we can get them to add this now lol

I thought you're talking about getting TECH for trash talking on the mic...but getting tech while calling timeout when you have none is not cool. I would think it's going to annoy some people. What IS the point of putting that in the game anyway.

Because that's what happens in real life...

Honestly not a fan of this, and disappointed to see it back. Is the game going to display timeouts on the screen? It's very easy to lose track or even mis-click.

This frankly never happens at the professional level and does not belong in an NBA game. It's a video game for a reason. What is this adding at a competitive level? Is the CPU ever going to make this mistake? No. It's just there to screw the user up, as if the AI cheating weren't enough.

Couldn't someone just continue calling TO's over and over again to ruin a game near the end? This seems very exploitable by someone who wants to ruin a game by being a poor sport loser.
