Are you one of the fortunate souls who have been able to play some online team up ball with NBA 2K9? Richard Chavez is with you and agrees the mode can be a lot of fun. Check out his latest strategy article, NBA 2K9 Team Up Strategy.

	"If you've played Team Up mode in NBA 2K9 like I have, you’ll see that it can be an awesome experience. If you haven’t because of the online issues in the game, feel free to complain about them until the problems are fixed. If you can play five-on-five right now or plan to when it works, then here are some tips that should make you an ideal teammate on the virtual court."

This would be nice if the game didn't run at 10 fps.

Good tips but I don't think many of us have been able to play. I think the feature is dead. Maybe next year though, it looks like a ton of fun.

U see I love this 5 on 5.. When it is lag free or the least playable. But these are the problems im having with this mode.

Im not even gonna talk about the lag bs cuz we all know that, and we all know about how long it takes to get a game.

Let me say wat they have to fix for this mode.

1st, change difficulty to halloffame.

2nd, this random team stuff with random ppl is trash.

Let me be able to pick my friends n play against others ranked. Let me be able to choose wat team I want.

For rank games, if they want to choose my posistion for me then fine. But let me at least be able to choose wat I want to be. Is it that hard??

Let there be clans like nba live. All of this will make team up so much better. This game potentially can be the best but lacks in a lot of things.

O n im soon to be number one on the 360 in this mode with an A+ average.

NYCDaFuture for 360. Ill b number 1 or top 3 most likely this weekend Ya Dig

There should be more then a couple of teams that play... it should be implemented into a league type thing... where you can team up instead of just a bunch of randos everytime. Hopefully next year they'll do something with it that doesn't involved 10 minutes of lagging and an eventual 2 v 3

Make a create a player system,,,optional leagues...eliminate lag(obviously). Nice tips imo, but if most ppl don't know their roles, they shouldn't be in this mode. Also, if your stuck with someone and don't know how to (or can't) play with them, ask a teammate if they want to switch. The switch is done by subbing your player out, and then whoever wants them to get them, and you get the player they subbed out.

People not always giving the PG the ball to initiate the offense is my only gripe. I played a team up game and I was the Suns and was controlling Nash. I guess Amare and Raja Bell knew eachother because Raja got just about every inbound pass to start the offense. I am like why.........
