Hi all. Well i bought this game the first day it came out, ive been playing since Live 00, and this one has been the easiest of them all ?!?! (well apart from 05). Im playing Superstar mode and its just toooo easy!!
I play 10 min quarters.. scoring on avg between 140-150+ ppg.(SUPERSTAR MODE) I also get tonnes of steals and blocks buh i lack defensive boards but end up at around the same TOTAL boards due to a high number of offensive boards ?! Kinda like Phoenix last season or Seattle lol - minus the offensive boards. (opponent's score around 90-110ppg)
I play this on PS2 and my starting Lineup always varies (got heaps of save files)
My best team was:
C- Bosh
PF- Griffin
SF- Kirilenko
SG- James
PG- Davis
and 3 crappy subs lol (btw this is Fantasy draft thats how i got all the nice players).
So i thought to myself.. myb my players are too good =S. So then i made up a team of fake players all whose ratings are under 75 but still it owns like shit.
I think in this game there is a basic rule for victory well for my style of game play..
YOU NEED
C- SHOT BLOCKER + BOARDS
PF - SHOT BLOCKER + BOARDS
SF - FG 70ish, Strong + Post
SG- 3 range (75+)
PG - Strong + Fast + 3 Range + can steal (75+)
-> Overall i play a fastbreak game so i like to run the open court and get my PG to dish to an open 3. LOL and i always hear the commentator critises my player for making the shot haha.
Basically i play with my PG/SG. They do all the scoring...
So a generic team would be...
C- Foyle (strong, shot blocker (92, although 80 will do) Ok on the Board)
PF- Griffin or anyone similar
SF- Dunleavy ( not that strong buh shoots darn well)
SG- Korver
PG- Davis (Fast + Strong + 3point + steal + dunk + pass = invincible)
I use Baron to post up all the guards if im going through a drought. If im on a hot run then i just get him off a screen to shoot the 3 its too easy....
Normal Plan-> go up court with PG, back down for easy jumper draw players-> dish out to open SG or SF (drain 3) or if Miss and TO then get C or PF to run down field to get an easy block. With rating of 80+ for block its soo easy to get like 7+ bpg.. - -' even without freestyle superstar.
Overall this game is too easy =S playing on superstar mode..
If u follow the lineup or any similar lineup then your team should do fine.
PS- You will only do fine with a crap lineup in the above layout if u actualli play the games, not simulate haha. Also i think Stamina should be set at like 50+ because its just too easy to use ur best player for full 40 mins =S. I can get davis to score at will and wen he gets tired i just chuck a timeout. He gets tired middle of 2nd half. I through 2 timeouts, he is back to near full stamina. =S
PLEASE MAKE this game more Realistic by making it HARDER !
(maybe turn off ur teams Superstar powers and leave the other teams on =S lol)
