Any tips for finishing out games... i was up on teh Hawks then they have a 9-13 stretch and never looked back....this is the third game in a row where I can't get the execution near the end of the game.

after starting like 0-10, the Magic knock off the Heat!!

Sweet

I think the heat made 10 of its first 11 3s against me when I played them.

thanks. we turned right around and lost to Minny in OT.

in this game, superstars for the CPU never seem to have "off" games. and dwayne wade and lebron are literally unstoppable, wade plays like he is 24 again and lebron plays like lebron

Got smoked by the Heat. Played perfect defense on more than half of their made shots and it didn't matter. Apparently Mario Chalmers can take Rose, Deng or Hamilton off of the dribble, then post up Boozer on the next possession. Who knew?

I expected this from Wade/Lebron, but it was Chalmers, Anthony and Miller that were really doing it. Such a strange game. I think I gave up over 90pts on almost 70% shooting. I blame M2M.

Carmelo scored 38 on me last night I think, but managed to pull out a 2-point win over the Knicks.

you can double team guys... put off ball pressure on guys... etc etc

mess around and see if you find something that works.

you know you're the man, but im not looking to be able to perlay this into a coaching gig. i want to have some fun and not feel like i have worked after playing.

i have no problem losing, like none. However, when randy foye goes 6 of 7 on 10 trips down the floor in the 4th quarter, then lets get real.

I hate that you can't choose the guy you want to double with any more.

Randy foye

I want a mixture of nba jams and celtics-lakers on sega

you can before the game after the edit lineup screen.

c'mon... you don't think you're being a little extreme here? i'm not saying you need to build a spreadsheet and scout tendencies

coaching? it takes 30 seconds (while the screen is loading so you're waiting anyways) to throw on a few different things to play tight on guys or sag off guys or to double in posts or shit like that.

i don't do any of that stuff, but i'm sure its beneficial.

True, but I may not want to double a dude every single time he is in the post. You used to be able to press L1, then pick the guy you want to double. So I could double off of, say, Artest, instead of Kobe.

i gotcha... i don't know.

i would guess there is a way to do it still but i don't know how. i know you can use the quick play and focus on stars. but i'm not even sure what they means.

Those quick defensive strategies, they may actually work, but i personally never seen any differences when i switch from one to another.

i'm sure they just give little trade offs when you use them... like i would guess if you do 'clog paint' or whatever its called i would bet the players get +2 or something on their rebounding/blocking/interior d and -2 on their perimiter d, etc.

just a guess but thats what i always assumed.

I thought it was a positional thing. Never really considered a ratings boost/decrease.

im just saying the second we start double teaming, is right when a guy is open and starts raining down 3's or whatever
