@SimBaller

You only mentioned: "You can select any player in the league."

Can we select anyone from the Greatest mode once we unlock them?

About the ratings, I don't really care about that, as long as the players play and perform up to their capability in real life, it's all fine.

Now if 2K have Bron perform better in the 4th quarter than Kobe, then we have an issue.

If I mess with this mode, I'll probably go this route too. I can't help it, I'm a fan.

2K just keep giving us more and more to keep us occupied while the lockout is going on. Im feeling this mode alot. I will most likely take over tyreke evans career and try and get him some rings. Might even see if I can force a trade later on and team him up wit rose just for the heck of it lol

Mins down were due to injuries....he didn't practice all yr long and still 5th in PER. lol that's why he went to Germany and got treatment, he will be back to shut the dumb doubters once again, like he did many times in his career. just for a reminder, here is what Kobe and Lebron been doing in this offseason. Kobe http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QStx8GklKQg Lebron http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnEIH0kOFNs

not a good argument, seems ur trying to make fun of him more than state your case...

Lebron has been doing alot during the offseason, probably more than Kobe

he's been training with Hakeem and has been very active in summer leagues (he played in the Drew League before Kobe).

the fact that Kobe only averaged around 23 points vs Mavs shows that he declined. Yes Lebron didn't show up in the finals, but he got way farther than kobe

Well, they are in game technically speaking, so I'm pretty sure it won't take many hours before someone customizes a roster file and uploads to 2K Share so we can play with proper rookies.

As for the Creating a Legend mode, people playing on PC could actually do this via My Player already last year.

Personally, I finished the careers of Nash and Shaq, plus a solid 15 seasons as Blake Griffin. I had hell of a lot of fun doing that, so I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy this mode too.

Although... all the new My Player stuff has me quite happy in the pants right now.

# 88 BRxSKINSx @ 09/14/11 05:28 PM

This mode doesn't excite me at all....not saying it's a bad thing to have in the game, it's just that if I'm gonna spend time playing this mode......I may as well be using MY PLAYER, making him better....That's just me though....

# 89 Kiss_My_Dimplez @ 09/14/11 05:35 PM

I'll enjoy this mode. It gives us a chance to turn underrated players into the superstars that they have the potential to be. I'm thinking about going with Brandon Jennings or J.R. Smith......i just wish AI would come back to the league so he could be featured in the game too

Exact same thing I was saying, My Bulls need a Two so bad and Reke is a beast.

^That right there. Those were the 2 people I picked in another post, plus I added Shannon Brown since hes my homie in real life, and a beast to play with.

Shannon Brown is a good pick too. And i'm also thinking about Melo b/c even though some ppll consider him a superstar i dnt think he's at his full potential

# 94 GSWarriors9 @ 09/14/11 06:17 PM

I will be using Stephen Curry, he's young, a great shooter and already very good. Im going to develop him into a superstar and bring rings to Golden State!

# 95 RB10 @ 09/15/11 02:16 AM

The Lebron haters are coming out....complaining of his rating....this is really making me laugh out loud

# 96 Xx Qontrolz xX @ 09/15/11 03:02 AM

i'm intrigued by the contract amount shown in the LBJ screenshot- 3y/52.64M when he signed last year a 6y/110M ...

what u guys think?

it's a MP mode with a current NBA player so u'll only control your guy

# 98 domidomdomz @ 09/15/11 03:17 AM

Let's go, Luke Walton!

Make your Papa proud and get that 6th ring for Kobe!

# 99 Day_26 @ 09/15/11 03:39 AM

Individually lending is the best, no doubt. Kobe definitely slowed down, 94 seems ok. But 98 for lebron is too much...

# 100 airjoca @ 09/15/11 04:53 AM

Kobe 94
Wade 96
LeBron 98

MJ 134?
