I play sim.

I just had a decent game with the Bulls against the Grizzlies. I won by 5 points, but we both scored in the 120-130 point range (playing on 12 minutes, AS, default). I cahnged my camera a little bit and zoomed it out to try and see cuts from the wings before it was too late. That helped a lot, but the CPU teammate defense still lacks. Still, with more practice I'm hoping I should get better. Rudy Gay had 40 points, but Mayo had only 15.

Points in the paint for the Grizzlies was still crazy high at 80+. Post-up moves still seem pretty automatic for the CPU, but on my end not to much. Noah missed two point-blank layups with nobody contesting the shots. I'm not sure how to get the overall points down, maybe I was playing a quick game since I wasn't really trying to run a lot of plays on the offensive end, but I definitely wasn't doing the ol run-n-gun either.

actually just pushing user strength to 60 and leaving the cpu at 50 does a good job. u still get ur backdowns when ur supposed too.

first u gotta lower ur shooting succes sliders. on default u will have 120 point games regularly. try these out if u like

close 35
med 40
3point 48
lay-up 45

im having great games with those sliders against the cpu and head to head. also, i believe there are too many offensive rebounds at default which leads to more points off of second chances. i lowered my offensive rebounds and raised the defensive rebounds. i have mines at

off 30
def 75.

if u try them tell me what u think?

good numbers, but i go:

33 close
48 mid ( so bigs can still shoot the mid range J )
48 3pt
47 lay-up

either way tho....Thats one thing about OS, it doesnt teach the ins and outs of the game that much, but when it does, people are actually helpful.

you know i was just talking to my brother about moving the mid range slider up. im gonna try 45 first and see how i like it.

i always try to help if i can.

I apologize if this was mentioned already, but my first post-patch game in association felt really off. I was missing a lot of wide open looks and my opponent (Utah) turned the ball over 22 times (I only turned it over 4 times). Was this an anomaly or are other people experiencing this?
