X's T'wolves (NBA 2K11)

[Eirsej]

I've read somewhere in the insight that your are able to do it. I'm haven't checked yet though.

[Lamrock]

Question, is there any way to upload any specific photos from Pressbook? I don't want to upload 50+ photos every game, just the really good ones. Any ideas? Anybody tried it?

Apparently you can, but I haven't figured that out either.

Press Y on the photos you want to upload (a green check mark will appear in the upper right hand corner of the ones you've selected). Then, when you go to upload them, it will give you the option of uploading those specific photos only. And if it's not Y you have to press, just keep trying different buttons until you get the green check mark (I've only played one full game so far and can't really remember what I did).

Liking this so far The X, especially the letter about the plans for the team. I'll be following.

[kibaxx7]

Ricky's on board, even better man.

[The X]

Thanks guys. I actually worked it out myself when playing around with the buttons For PS3 users I think it is the triangle button to check which photos you want to upload. Very handy indeed.

It wasn't my letter. You can thank the real life David Kahn. It's his open letter, not mine

[Axel The Great]

Oh, well in that case, that was pretty creative in including that to the story. My bad.

FLYNN FINED $25K BY LEAGUE


It didn't take the league long to stamp down on one of its players. Minnesota's second year point guard Jonny Flynn was fined $25,000 by the league for taking his frustrations out on a Piston's employee. After making a tough layup, Flynn went barrelling into the Piston's floor sweeper Gabrielle Torres. Incidental contacts occurs all the time, but slow motion replays showed that Flynn dropped his shoulder just prior to contact, which sent Torres backwards, as his did a reverse commando roll off the court. To make matters worse, Flynn reportedly barked the following at Torres immediately after the incident, "men shouldn't wear pink".

DIFFERENT YEAR, SAME RESULT


The Timberwolves have struggled greatly throughout their first four games, losing all by an average margin of 22 points, as they fell to 0-4 (pro-rata: 0-11) with losses at home to the Knicks and on the road to the Nuggets, Pistons and Pacers.

It really seems like the team is still struggling to adapt to coach Kurt Rambis' triangle offense that he brought over from the Lakers. The young and inexperienced squad just doesn't seem to be connecting to it and word is if Rambis can't start to get them on the same page by Christmas then he may be shown the door.

The team has had a few injuries, with Martell Webster and rookie Wesley Johnson playing in pain, but rookie big Nikolai Pekovic injuring himself during a promising game against the Nuggets (8 points, 2 rebounds in only 7 minutes). However, even with a fully healthy squad, the way they have been playing I can't foresee any of the previous results having changed.


Tayshaun's a killer. Helping to boost the Timberpup's morale.


Standard reaction of all Minnesota's opponents

PIC OF THE DAY



Pistons were doing it so easy that Piston's guard Rodney Stuckey ducked outside at half-time and seemed to cruise through the second half proceedings

[The X]

What can I say guys? The Pressbook feature in 2k11 is superb. All of the above pics (with exception of Flynn ones that I had to capture myself in replay mode & are thus lower quality) came from the Pressbook.

[Axel The Great]

Lol at Flynn's statement "Real men shouldn't wear pink" . Love the sarcasm of the title.

[dare]

Love the Flynn's pic

[Fresh8]

You need to teach me how to get pictures off Pressbook.

[kibaxx7]

I only see consistency by Flynn... Ridnour and Brewer had nice games but then Corey would score too little or Ridnour wouldn't score at all. But that's a nice challenge

Just noticed it was my NLSC b-day a couple of days ago. 6 years already!

[Lamrock]

Rough start, but that is to be expected, considering your roster. Loving the Flynn pic. Really like how you're presenting this. I prefer it to the 2K Blog layout you had for your Bucks as there's more of a narrative to it.

That's good to know about the pressbook. It, like Real Player FG%, is one of the many great unexpected new features in 2K11.

[Houndy]

Stupid question: Is the pressbook the site where you upload the pics?

Great start, the Wolves are lottery bound again

Glad you both like them. Have to come up with something considering my team's a mockery. Deflect the focus off my team's success (or lackthereof).

Flynn might've been consistent with simmed games, but he was horrible against the Knicks. Absolute garbage. He better shape up or he'll be shipped out. Ridnour has been absolutely terrible in played game but great in simmed games. As for Brewer, he's back to starting now with the injuries going around.

Cheers, yep I knew the blog layout was pretty mediocre. I'll still upload the boxscores but that's only for anybody interested in them, since I'm not. The plus side is it uploads the standings so I don't need to re-hash them. I'm thinking this Association is going to be more pic-based. I tried to upload a video to 2k site but it didn't work for whatever reason. At least now with the Press Book I don't need to spend 15 minutes trying to get good pics each game. I can just pick the best from what the game takes, & it takes some pretty good ones (& funny ones too).

But yes, the T'wolves are turrible. Plus I'm pretty turrible with the new isomotion controls. I need to get some practice. I'm getting smashed on pro level with sim game style At least my turnovers are down, even if I struggle to shoot 40% from the field.

So what is so good about real player FG %? Please explain for us unenlightened people.

No, you upload to the 2k website. You need to go to 2k sports, sign up for a username. From there, if you link your 2k sports account with your PSN or XBL tag, you can directly upload pics, videos (although I've been unsuccessful to date) & all or part of Press Book to 2k sports account straight from the game. The Press Book can be found in the menu directly following the completion of the Player of the Game footage.

[Lamrock]

Yeah, for SL2, I intend to use quite a few similar features from your dynasties if thats okay. Press book is awesome (its like some member of their staff maintains a dynasty blog of their own!), and now I don't need to break the flow of the game with DeRozan dunks. Probably won't bother with videos this time around unless its something epic though. (Less likely since 2K11 is far more realistic than 2K10)
'
I play on Pro/Sim as well. I'm decent enough on it, and once I control turnovers and learn better post moves, I'll probably upgrade to the next one. Pro difficulty isn't stopping my Raptors from losing at any rate..

Real Player FG% is great because you don't need to bother learning everyone's releases and just focus on playing basketball. Was frustrating in 2K10 because I couldn't hit a shot with Bargs, but was lights out from 3 with DeRozan (who had like a 50 rating from outside). Just makes it a bit more realistic and jump-shot oriented imo.

[Mark.]

Tough start. I just picked up the game. Quite hard so far. Doesn't help with the changes to controls but I can see whatever team I choose struggling through the first few weeks.

[mp3]

Nice start X and solid team choice too !

[George7]

Minessota really needs a star to be based on!
Otherwise,i bet this won't be the only bad streak.

Really like the 2k Blog layout

[The X]

Yep Lamrock, I might give real FG% & FT% a go just for next game & see if I like it. I think half the reason I'm missing so much is all the different signature shot release points to learn. One question though, if I mistime my shot on real FG%, will I miss it? I don't want it to be all on the ratings if I screw up.

And I don't mind if you use a lot of similar things. I'm just using the tools that the games gives me to make this run smoother. It's not like I'm making templates for this stuff. And besides, the more self-deprecating Associations we see on these boards, the more they'll become the norm & people will be like, boxscore, why? Preview to a pre-season game, okay?

Mark, yep, it'll take you a good week or so to get in. Whereas other people practice for a few weeks so they're good to run Association then do a pre-season, I value time so I learn on the job. Helps I got a crappy team so nobody is disappointed when I lose

Nice start X and solid team choice too !

Cheers, glad you like.

2k blog's nothing, just convenient. Will try to keep the good stuff in this thread.

Couldn't agree more on the need for a star. You sound just like David Kaaaahhhhn

Looking Great So Far! Im Liking It!
I also like that Flynn bullied the guy in a pink wear

Im Gonna Follow This!

ROFL of the year is Flynn.
