8 different freestyle superstar types and predicting who is

Postby kingjames23 on Mon Jul 25, 2005 4:55 pm

i forgot where i read this, but there are 8 different types of freestyle superstar.....

basic descriptions

1 outside stopper, a master pickpocketer, gets steals from all angles

2 inside stopper, shotblocker/over the back rebounding fool

3 power, the big guy with selectable power dunks

4 high flyer, the guy with selectable fancy dunk contest type slams...

5 playmaker, who can pull a pass out his ass, around the head or back

6 inside scorer, the big man as a hookshot, bankshot artist

7 outside scorer, pulls off impossible runners, floaters, and layups

8 shooter, can do multiple pump and head fakes to get his shot, has quick release

a player can only have one offensive skill set and one defensive skill set at a time
on offense or defense pull the left trigger or L2 and either tap or hold one of the 4 face buttons on the controller for 1 of 8 selectable freestyle moves...

im wondering how many players will actually be freestyle superstars?
how many per team?

some teams should have about 3 or 4 freestyle guys... pistons, spurs, mavs, suns, heat, 76ers
some teams only 2... rockets, nets....
some only 1... lakers, cavs

im wondering is there an official list out there of who will be given freestyle allstar abilities??? anyone have a clue? anyone want to predict who?

guys like lebron, could be either playmaker, high flyer or outside scorer....
so how do you pick which move set? my brain hurts now. someone please have all the answers so i dont have to think about this until release day!!!

heres some of my thoughts...

my heat prediction

shaq = power, inside stopper
wade = high flyer, outside stopper
e. jones = shooter, outside stopper
zo= inside stopper

my pistons prediction

ben = power, inside stopper
sheed = inside scorer, inside stopper
prince = inside stopper, shooter
rip = outside scorer
billups = outside stopper

my spurs prediction

duncan = inside scorer, inside stopper
manu = outside scorer
parker = playmaker
bowen = shooter, outside stopper
horry = shooter

my suns prediction

amare = power
marion = outside scorer
nash = playmaker

my nets prediction

kidd = playmaker, outside stopper
carter = high flyer

my cavs prediction

lebron = high flyer (or playmaker), outside stopper

my 76ers prediction

iverson = ouside scorer, outside stopper
korver = shooter
webber = inside scorer (or playmaker)

my lakers prediction

kobe = outside scorer (or high flyer) outside stopper

these are just my opinions, i'd like to hear what you guys think...

I have an answer. in the start of each game, you can choose which freestyle superstar ability you want LeBron will have this game (of course not all of them because he's not all of them but those that possible).

Oh God, no more of this Freestyle Superstar talk please!

It seems to make me feel so much worse about the game everytime.

They are supposed to make superstars feel special, but they are limiting the superstars themselves. I am not even a fan of the fancy eyecandy moves anyway but LeBron is the top playmaker, outside scorer, high flyer for Cleveland in every single game, not in three different games.

A lot of blame should go to stupid one dimensional fans who think of basketball as entertainment instead of a sport who watch the game for "OMG!! DID YOU SEE THE SICK CROSSOVER THAT AI DID?!?! AND WOW DID YOU SEE THE NEW CAVS JERSEY??" Although I won't be able to stop myself from buying this game, I really get a bad feeling about this game.
