Anyone play NBA 2k9 after playing Draft Combine?

I have gotten a lot better at the game (especially on defense). I am having fun playing the 'right' way. I cannot wait for 2k10 so that I can play a smoother game. The draft combine has forced me to play even more sim than I already have in the past and now the game plays better...anyone else try this?

The big thing was how huge the players were in 2k9. I never thought that the players were that big but after playing the combine it was a really big difference.

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

No. 2K9 has always been an unplayable mess for me, so I'm just waiting for 2K10.

Yea, the combine made me want to dust off 2k9...I made a athletic point gaurd in the combine and theb played my Association with the bulls and the 1st thing I started doing was getting every rebound I could and laying off the turbo...I had D. Rose getting triple doubles and my guys weren't getting tired as fast cause I wasn't sprinting them every where. Def. made me look at the game differently. I can't wait to import my guy into 2k10.

I share the same experience...I actually feel like I really know how to play the game the way it is supposed to be played...good job 2k on the tutorial...looking forward to 2k10 and playing some true 'sim' games.

Yeah I did and I even turned my game speed down to match the DC speed. I have gotten better. But sometimes it's still unplayable.

Im an extremest, I made everyone 4 inches shorter and the court space was phenomenal. That along with my sliders breathed new life into 2k9.

Re: Anyone play NBA 2k9 after playing Draft Combine?

I have just started the combine and have not tried 2k9 again, probably won't. I never really liked the single player deal in basketball but I am really loving this one. The AI does a sufficient job of playing the game with my teammates and really I only have a couple complaints which are things I will probably get used to. The only one that really irritates me is when I go to call for a pass right when my teammate decides to pass me the ball and I accidentally do a catch and pass to one of my other teammates. This has cost me a couple breakaway dunks.
