Most annoying/funny moment in game

[fjccommish]

Hey guys...

The new annoyance is always starting on the awful 2KTV. I turned my speakers off (turn them on once I'm in game play) to avoid hearing "hey guys" every time I start the game.

The biggest thing that annoys me is when I get doubled, my teammates just stand there. And when I throw to the guy that's uncovered(Usually PG) he is three feet outside the 3pt. line every time and then by the time he steps up he is covered again. Not to mention if you don't do something for more than a second or two while being doubled, it turns into a jump ball.

I'll ask again, don't know if I'm missing something - where do I set situational linepus (bench, quick, tall, 3pt etc.) except right before the game after ernie and shaq show linepus? when I set situationals there, it's resetted for the next game, it's really annoying setting these before each game

It's not in the coaching plan in myleague. I'd love to know where it is.

Well, I just had very funny moment yesterday.

In MyLeague I was able to get JaVale McGee for the second season as he is good explosive center. Plus I was hoping he would do something funny from time to time (missed opportunity, Leftos).

Although Shaq spoke about JaVale in first game's pregame show, he did not do something to earn him another Shaqtin' MVP

BUT throughout the game on a fastbreak he posterized some poor guard. After the dunk the other team called timeout and I saw them helping the guy up as he was injured. So I went to the menus to see what kind of injury (curious) he had and it was a concussion.
JaVale posterized guy so hard he had CONCUSSION!

Yep. This!

They double me and the open dude is Reggie Evans or Jason Thompson, standing 3 feet from the 3pt line. Totally useless. I also hate that it always end in a jump ball. How about a foul now and then? Or a travel on me??? That would be cool.

MyCareer:
1. (Funny but annoying too) Why whenever I am being subbed back into the game 95% of the time a timeout has to be called first? Sometimes it doesn't make sense that it is 0.5 secs left in the quarter yet one of the team calls a timeout so that I get subbed in.
2. (annoying)How the 'Who to guard' indicator randomly changes at times, especially when the defense gets messy because of screens, and to top it all it I get deducted teammate grade because I allowed man to score.
3. (funny) how during a team scrimmage I managed to get a A- teammate grade yet I still get yelled at by the coach
4. (funny) how I changed teams on my second year in My Career but that same annoying assistant coach is still with me (it is quite cool that Doc Rivers joined the same team I went to though)
5. (funny) how I performed extremely well and won the game in my first confrontation with Kevin Durant yet the storyline goes on as if I have lost the game
6. (funny) how it is my second year in the NBA already yet they still call me a rookie (different story when I look up the stats though)
7. (funny/interesting/annoying) how I won the NBA championship on my first year with the nuggets, I won the finals MVP too, then during the start of the next season its like nothing happened as everyone is 'trying to see what this new comer has got'. (I admit I did buy some VC so I did get to pimp my player up faster but still it is a bit annoying)
8. (funny) how my team can be up 32-8 by the end of the first quarter, then when i get subbed in 3 mins into the 2nd quarter the score is now my team up 50-42. It was against the bucks.. wow they sure scored a lot in 3 mins..

Other than that so far the game is still quite fun. Sad that maybe because it's where I'm from (Hong Kong, Asia) so there are input lags when I play MyPark, other than that this game is a fun for now. I also love trolling the Social Media area in MyCareer.

[fjccommish]

The commentary could stand to be more like the social media. The social media focuses on what happened in games instead of on pre-canned stories. The social media comments fit the situation.

Have the commentary focus on the events from the game or the season/franchise instead of what happened outside the game (in the real NBA).

Annoying things:

- No fatigue meter using the in-game subs menu (down on the d-pad). Have to burn a timeout or go to the pause screen subs menu.
- Jumping in to play the start of the 4th quarter in a simcast game and always only having 1 timeout left.
- Having to run circles on the court out of sheer boredom while waiting for the play-by-play team to finish talking about a non-existent leaderboard
- Timeouts and Subs reverting to AUTO
- Other GMs constantly offering me crap for Andrew Wiggins.

Yeah but she's hot.

MyCareer:

The coach is pretty dumb. I got my first triple double (5 turnovers though) and I return to the bench basking in my own greatness and all of a sudden the coach screams "too many turnovers!!!" Wtf? Shut up old man. Imma gonna request a trade as soon as the season is over. MyCareer is pretty awesome because it really gives you the same frustrations as a star NBA player would. I'm beginning to better understand LBJ going to Miami (still hate his guts though) now that my utterly useless Kings teammates are bobbling the ball, not grabbing rebounds, missing layups, not shooting. It is totally a one man show out there and I always gas out at the end of the game. Our record is abysmal.

"Yeah but she's hot."

A show host needs to be more than just hot. Hey guys is now "what's up guys?".

Your point stands though. I only turn on the sound when I'm in game, because Pharrell Williams needs to never make a soundtrack ever again ever. I'll commend him for the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Public Enemy selections, but other than those two songs, this is by far the worst soundtrack I've ever heard in a basketball game.

Oh man. Ok, you got me beat on that, haha. We're 16-35. My first few games, the instant I got subbed in, my team would go on a negative 15 point run. I couldn't defend a 95 year old amputee. And the fools still gave me a long term contract! HAHAHA.

Man, I was disrespecting Cousins and the GM just to get traded and I almost cried when the GM made me sign another 10 day deal. Most frustrating game I played was when we were against the Bucks and we were up by 13. Coach subbed me out till there was only 2:42 in the 4th and we were down by 9. Gotta love the MyCareer cheese.
