NBA 2K15 Roster Update Details (11-20-14)

[DBMcGee3]

Great job as always Mike. I'd still love to see the tendencies adjusted for some of the post up type bigs, but it's really hard to nitpick when we're getting such thorough updates nearly every day.

I think it was Jeebs9 in the other thread who essentially made this point that when it comes to the Bucks, theres no real right answer here. As a Heat fan I'm all too familiar with the term positionless basketball, and this is what the Bucks are doing with those 3. You can't get anything from a box score, lineup data, or position percentage, because almost everytime down the floor, those 3 are guarding someone else. Jabari will even sometimes guard the opposing 2, and no, not only in transition.

I originally had Giannis as SF/SG and Middleton as SF/PF and was jumped on for that, and now you see it a different way than those guys did. (Might i add that all of this feedback has been from Bucks fans) We're all watching the games and all see different things because they're so inconsistent and interchangable.

Problem is we're dealing with a video game, so it has to be defined. So the correct answer is just going to depend on who they are playing, and even then they are not going to be limited to 2 positions or less.

Edit: Also once again, ball handling (in the frontcourt) is not limited to what position they are playing. Play Initiator and Play Types assigned help with this.

Yea what your saying maybe true but I watch almost all the Buck games and yea all the positions for the 3 are interchangeable but you hardly ever see Giannis guarding bigs due to his strength, even on 2K with him at that position you almost have to switch the match ups every time cause he get ate up in the post. That's really my only issue with him at PF, other than that Parker n Middleton usually interchange between the SF & PF anyway. As far as 2k goes It's best Giannis starts at the SG position but he should be listed as SF/SG though, It even makes the rotations a bit more realistic...

Just labbed my whole active roster (Wizards) on HOF/Sim. If I didn't look into this broken shot rumor, I would of just chalked it up to being low rated, cold spots having, low consistency playing bums on the game. Found this link in a previous thread on OS. It does make some good points, even though the video is MyCareer the jumper problem translates throughout any game mode. I don't know if Beds will ever get to this cause there not high profile players. I feel lucky Beal jumper was fixed, now that I got a chance to lab his shot since he's back from injury.

Rasual Butler, Otto Porter, Drew Gooden, Marcin Gortat, Garrett Temple, DaJuan Blair & Andre Miller all have broken jump shots. I wouldn't mind usually but when 7 out of 13 players on the active roster jumpers are broken. That somewhat leaves you at a disadvantage in the game. Don't get me wrong shots go in from time to time, but when you run a nice play, get that wide open look & miss cause the release is broken. It kinda gets on your nerves & messes with your head after a while.

i also found another link in the OS Forums from DaWarrior, who took the time to lab & found 180 players with broken shots.

Beds any plans on implementing seanbarkleys PE sneakers into your roster? Just wondering if I should start creating the sneakers on my own.
