Game & Player Speed

I've been finding myself most comfortable in 2K12 with a 43 Game and 50 Player Speed, but I thought I'd experiment a bit, and went to take a look at the speeds recommended by slider modders at OperationSports. All of them recommend a Game Speed of 50 and Player Speed anywhere between 45 and 52. I tried those settings, but the game feels like it's going in fast forward.

Is there any video comparison between a real game and a 2K12 game that shows that 50 Game Speed is actually realistic? Am I missing something here?

Are those settings recommended for realism or simply what some consider a desirable gameplay experience?

Don't know. Most sliders threads are tens of pages long, and I can't really bother to read through all that. I'm just going with what works best for me for now. 46 on Game Speed, 45 on Player Speed.

Actually... There was a meaning to all this.

Setting Game Speed to 50 and Player Speed to 52 along with using the latest modified exe by Michaelvlutz49 which increases the speed of guards' drives among other stuff, I find that I can do much easier fast-breaks and that there's actually much more of a speed difference between players, as well as that explosive guards both on my side and the CPUs side can now get past their defender much easier. Just using Michael's exe did make a difference, but for some reason Player Speed set to more than 50 seemed to increase the difference between the speed of different players.
