We finally have found our rhythm. After getting off to a bad start, going 1-4 to start the season, the Phoenix Suns have become a force to reckon with in the West, winning 6 of our last 7 games, including a 93-58 laugher at Detroit, a 107-94 OT win against Chicago, a 98-82 victory against the Knicks, and a 106-71 whooping against New Orleans. We pulled ourselves out of the basement in the Pacific Division and now trail the Lakers by a half game. Meanwhile, my My Player is getting some serious playing time, now up to 29 minutes as the Sixth Man, and I am currently leading the entire Suns team in scoring with 18.8 points per game.

Jesus Christ I just got bent over. Playing Association (offline) as the Denver Nuggets, I played a game at Oklahoma City. They dropped 43 points on me in the first quarter alone, ended up scoring 73 fucking points by halftime, on their way to handing a 136-103 ass whooping to me. The saddest part, is Kevin Durant only played 21 minutes and only scored 12 points for the entire game. It wouldn't be so bad if Durant had gone apeshit and dropped like 60 points on me or something. But no, he only scores a whopping 12 points. Instead it's Russell Westbrook dropping 47 points on me, with Nate Robinson adding 27 for good measure. I feel like I need to take a shower.

or change settings, not every player should be that good a shot

[SmoothPancakes]

It didn't have anything to do regarding sliders and settings, it was just one of those games where an ass whooping was due. I got my revenge the very next night when I bitch slapped Washington 130-90.

Whew, just managed to finally win the NBA Championship in the 2013-2014 season. It was a hell of a battle in the playoffs. Every single series went the full 7 games. Somehow managed to outlast Sacramento (battling back from a 3-1 deficit), Oklahoma City (we alternated wins in the first four games until I was able to steal one in game 5 and then finish it off in game 7), the Los Angeles Clippers (battling back from yet another 3-1 deficit), and then the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals (we alternated in this series as well, with me taking games 1, 3, 5 and 7) to win it all.

Speaking of the Miami Heat, talk about epic failure. Including the real life 4-2 series loss to Dallas from last season, the Miami Heat have been to, and lost, 4 straight NBA Finals now. 4-2 to Dallas in 2011, 4-1 to Oklahoma City in 2012, 4-2 to the LA Clippers in 2013, and 4-3 to me (the Denver Nuggets) in 2014. Maybe Dan Gilbert was right, the Cavs will win a title before LeBron does.

I could, very much so, see that happening in real life. Lebron disappears in big games when he's needed most and Bosh just isn't the force down low that they need him to be. All of that results in guys standing around waiting for Dwayne Wade to do something off the dribble. It's really ugly basketball to watch.

From Pasta on Twitter:

Have learned current expectation for NBA 2K12 patch is to complete by mid-Nov, out by early Dec. Stress though many factors can change that.

[morsdraconis]

I hate console gaming. Jesus h tapdancing Christ, that's a RIDICULOUS amount of time to watch for a fuckin' patch.

Are there any decent rosters out with the rookies out? I'm tempted to pick this game up but won't do so unless I can create my all squad.

Here is a set at OS that seems to have rookies:

With the ability to sim to whatever game you feel like simming to and being able to just skip to the next Rivalry Game, it can make a season FLY by.

Thanks I might just pick this game up this weekend. I presume you can edit the rosters further so that my all Duke squad would become a reality?

The patch is now out for PS3 and "soon" for 360.


GAMEPLAY

• On-dribbler steal success rates have been tuned down.
• Tuned accuracy of directional passing in order to more reliably pass to the intended target.
• Improved help defense, specifically for rotations on pick-and-roll situations.
• Defensive tuning on 3PT shots to reduce the success of contested threes.
• Addressed an issue on drives to the basket where the help defender wouldn’t fully engage in the double team.

ONLINE

• Several matchmaking optimizations have been made in order to help users get into games quicker. This will reduce the amount of time the “Searching For Opponent…” screen is displayed for.
• Addressed a number of network errors that would cause games to end prematurely.
• Addressed an issue in Team-Up where certain conditions would lead to a player standing idle for prolonged periods of time.
• Corrected a Win/Loss streak tracking issue such that the “Back to Back to Back” achievement/trophy will now unlock at the proper time.

So no changes to Online Association? I was hoping they added sliders to the OA settings. Hopefully, the patch will address the problems with connecting on OA user matches.
