Guys listen up. I saw a couple posts with the best info besides the patch. The Help D slider is backwards for, sure put it on 0. You will see cpu guys run over to help quickly, if you post up on one side you will see defenders paying much more attention to the ballhandler.

Also another poster in the slider section said to to switch the cpu team playbook to all at the team select screen and I will tell you the stars for opposing team will be used. They post garnet, run ray around screens, post and look for paul p. This game is the shizz now.

No problem. Hope everyone else finds a way to enjoy it, but for me, I'm done.

Maybe I'll be back with 2k in '10, but given how I have detested the last 2 years, and there is nothing to indicate any type of change in direction, I'm not hopeful. I used to love playing this series.

For Fastbreaks I use
Shot Clock Usage % (0-10 seconds)

(shotclock - fastbreak)
0 - 10sec
45 =100 tempo
= 44 = 97 tempo
= 43 = 94 tempo
= 42 = 91 tempo
= 41 = 88 tempo
= 40 = 85 tempo
= 39 = 82 tempo
= 38 = 79 tempo
= 37 = 76 tempo
= 35 = 70 tempo
= 33 = 64 tempo
= 32 = 61 tempo
= 30 = 55 tempo
= 28 = 49 tempo

Dude, it's just like with anything. Different things mean different things to different people.

To the person who gets hissed off when his favorite NFL/NBA team loses, I can't just say "chill out, man, it's just sports"

Everyone has their stuff they really like, videogames are something lots of people have puts lots of time into over the years.

Like I said I am not done editing all teams but here are some simmed stats using the (PPG - 35 = Tempo Formula)

Lakers - 107
Nuggets - 102
Cavs - 102

Clips - 92
Bobcats - 93
Grizz - 94

Overall they look good. Some teams are out of place (DET 101 PPG.) I have to figure out why.

I just played a game online (Custom Ranked, Superstar difficulty, I was home) and the kid playing my Pistons was the Celtics and Garnett shot 15 - 19 from the paint. Every play down the court the guy took Rondo, did a jab step with the L2 then dished a pass to Garnett, who immediately would do a turn around layup over two defenders to go in. I had pressure at 0 and help at 100, I was playing off with SGs, PGs, running multiple zones on one possession, playing crazy confusing defense. But if he EVER got the ball to Garnett, it was over. I ended up losing by 20 even though I beat him in 2 of the 4 quarters because I'd just miss shots he had no trouble making. Very frsutrating, but I guess you can call that basketball?

Well considering we are discussing SIMMED STATS (which was patched); I don't see why you have all the attitude. Calm down man.

# 188 ProtoPunch @ 12/03/08 02:17 PM

The only two things I noticed that were different: first free throw shot is smoother and I can't back down anyone in the post anymore. Frankly, I'm just glad the patch didn't screw up my association stats or force me to readjust my sliders.

The patch update has NOT been released for the 360 quite yet bud, but only for the PS3 right now.

# 192 Nodima @ 12/03/08 02:40 PM

Have seen a couple errant passes (comments that "both players need to be on same page") and seeing a lot more true lead passes. Tony Parker is trying like hell to take advantage of Nash, mostly successful.

I don't know what you are talking about because the 360 patch was released yesterday.

# 195 JerryFletcher @ 12/03/08 02:46 PM

WTF I've restarted the Xbox like 5 time already and still I get no update.

Could be a dumb question but are you actually starting NBA 2K9 or are you just starting your XBOX and expecting a prompt? Seems starighforward but considering the number of "How do I get the patch" threads I've seen for every game it's clear some people don't know the process.

# 197 JerryFletcher @ 12/03/08 03:02 PM

Dude I've been having my Xbox since 2006, I know you have to start the game and then it prompts you for the update. I don't know whats going on here.

Noticed that right away. Replaying the Pacers vs Lakers from last night and playing d on Ford with Fisher and just getting blown by. Granger has already taken a few 3s in the first quarter. Post game is faster and blocking is better. Only one back door by the cpu and that was on a give and go.

connect to xbox live and have the game on disc tray (i have mine on hdd as well)... started nba2k9 (from hard drive) and it prompted me with the update patch... pretty straight forward...
