NBA 2K11: Ten Teams in Ten Days - Day 3: Los Angeles Lakers

[WTF]

tmactic, Czar captured over a TB of footage. He showcased some of the plays that "worked". What you see is one instance. Is it going to be like that? No read Czars posts that say the defense deters the plays a lot, but he was showcasing some of them that worked to perfection.

We'll leave it at that. You can test this if you want when you get the demo, or get the game yourself, but for the time being, let's leave it at that.

If I see Rose bounce pass to Boozer under the rim through 3 defenders for a dunk one more time I am going to jump...lmao

weak attempt at trolling...

So to assume how it all plays for 2 humans is unwarranted. Not to mention if you want better defense change the difficulty. That's what it's for.

Why would you give offense the advantage over defense in this game on any level? Whatever level it is I need it to be sim ball.

Who or what motiavted you to start either playing/watching roundball? I'm impressed with your knowledge overall, its great to hear in detail how each play is executed rather than just press corresponding button. Keep doing it up fam, "life in prison for cheesers" See I knew I had another question, with the ability for screens, pick and rolls etc., have you seen any offensive fouls called on the screener? Countless times its called when the screener doesn't establish his position or 'moves' with the defender. Any answer woukd be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Penny. I know there are a ton of guys on this site with great basketball knowledge. My dad is in the State of Kansas Basketball Hall of fame so I have been in love with the game of basketball all my life. I have played at different levels myself and trained with and against some outstanding talent. I have also had the opportunity to learn from some great coaches. The X's and O's of the game still amaze me.

The fact that I can tell you what I am going to do to you and you can't stop it because of the laws of the game just blows my socks off evertime. I love teaching that lesson to students and watch as they look bewildered
Then we tell them when you understand why you can't stop it we'll move on to something else... ROTFLOL

We teach more like a Shao lin Gung fu school than basketball instructors

Basketball is the family business. My father and I train kids on the fundamentals of the game. Which we feel are sorely missing. I Have always loved how the game reflects life and that is what we teach the kids we train. It's more about how to be successful in life using basketball as a point of reference.

The game is so beautiful to me the why things work even when you know there coming keeps me interested in the game. So its really a life long passion for me. And since I can't play at the level I am accustomed to anymore. I would love for these games to grow enough that I can still get that my hoops strategy fix without endangering my body parts on the pavement.

As to your other question yes they do call illegal screens this year if you start moving before the screen is set.

[WTF]

tmactic and Boilerbuzz- Stop the back and forth, stay on the topic of the video, or infractions will be issued.

Come on guys. No need for that in a great thread.

Back on topic, glad to hear they call illegal screens. That was in Live 10, was hoping it would be in 2k11.

[tmactic]

My point is that you know if you hit that button on a break away dunk you will get a dunk. If you are playing defense in the NBA in the paint as the last line of defense and Kobe runs by you you are never gonna just stand still. That defender had no reason not to pick Kobe up in that spot. It is Kobe for crying out loud!!!

I thought we were on topic. We're talking about the defense he's seeing in the video. But if you think we should move the discussion, where should it go?

EDIT: actually, don't answer that. It just hit me that the dude is just trolling, so I'll just leave it.

The defensive awareness level looked alot better in that vid but the spacing between the ball handler and the defender was off.
