NBA 2K13 My Player Discussion Thread
Posted on 10/9/12 at 9:29 am
Posted on 10/9/12 at 9:29 am
This thread is to discuss the my player mode of NBA 2K13. List experiences, strategies for making your player better (I.E. what to lvl up first).
I'll start. I created a 7ft 270 lb defensive center to do the dirty work for my team. My vision is a Tyson Chandler / Dwight Howard type of player. I was drafted 8th by the Raptors.
So far I am 8-2 with the Raptors and I play a 6th man role backing up Andrea Bargnani. Every now and then they have us both out there with him as PF.
I have been scoring about 10pts a game with 5-7 REB. 6 min quarters so I'm not exactly getting tons of minutes.
I have poured all my points into defensive reb, def awareness and low post def so far. The results are good but not great. After I earn a few more VC i'll be able to drop more into def awareness and quickness. I am liking the results. I set screens, disrupt opposing player movement and set myself up for boxing out for rebounds. The points come from rolling after picks for easy dunks. Other than that I pass.
Please share your experiences, love this game and especially this mode.

Can we also get a list of players position an console?
I am a 6'3" pg--70ovr. I average about 10 points and 7 assists per game. I still havent gotten into a sixth man position. I haven't played much but the best way to get vc is to actually play play now matches against the computer on 7 min quarters. You get 700-900vc per game. May even be a way to just milk the clock out

My Player Blacktop is def the easiest/fastest way to earn VC. Hit me up if anyone wants to get down on 360.

BUMP. Got this Monday. Yesterday was first day to play. For 360.
6'6" SF 215lb Small Forward - GOOSE.
Didn't do anything in the Rookie Showdown. Like 6 points, 2 rebounds.
Got drafted in the late 20's by the Memphis Grizzlies. My only other options were Golden State or the Miami Heat, frick that.
I come off the bench for about 12 minutes a game on 8 minute quarters. Average 7 PPG, 2 APG, and 3 RPG. But for the most part my player is terrible.
Couple of questions:
- How do i call for a pick?
- How do i run a set play?
- What is the function of LT exactly?
- Is shooting kind of like free throws, i should wait at the top of my jumpshot?

I had a 6-7 SF that I was playing with but started to get frustrated with some of the decision I made. So I decided to try the create a legend mode. I started 3 of them with different players to get a fell of what I liked the most.
I brought a second year Maravich to the Hornets and started at PG right away. This is the player I have stuck with. I love running the point with a player that can really dictate the game. I can score when needed or get the ball to Gordon and Davis. I think he started in the low or mid 80s. A very good player I can mold into a Superstar. I only play next key game in this mode.
I also wanted to see what a dominant center was like. So I ran a career with Shaq (94 from the Magic) on the Nets (wanted to see their uniforms). It was fun to dunk on people and dominate the inside. But in the end I was frustrated by the lack of control and depending on the PG to get me the ball. I am tempted to go back to this and put Shaq on the Hornets to team with Davis.
I also put a 99 rated Jordan on the Bobcats and played a few games. Last year this would have been my favorite, but I think I've burned out on Jordan over the past two years. I've played a lot of games with Jordan in 2k11 and 12 so that novelty has worn off.
For me, I like this mode better than the classic My Player. I don't have to worry quite as much about levelling a player up to get minutes. If I had more time to play I would be more patient with a lower rated player. I also like not having to deal with the stupid press conferences...those get real old, real quick.

i fricking love this MyPlayer shite on NBA2K13, such a rollercoaster ride of emotion...
6'6" SF for the Memphis Grizzlies. GOOSE.
started off the night playing some decent games. averaging 18 minutes. 10 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 block. had a breakout game off the bench against Brooklynn. 12 points, 8 assists, 3 blocks, 6 rebounds.
...nah points aren't that high, but i'm an athletic defensive high flying Small Forward. I'm not trying to drop Kobe #'s out there.
anyhow, they throw me into the starting line up. Not as the starting SF, but at the starting SG. weird.
1st start. I go HAM in a loss against the 76ers. 21 points. 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks. Got a solid B Teammate Grade. My highest yet.
next two games. @ Lakers then @ OKC. fricking crushed. finished both games with a D+. We got killed by LA and we blew out OKC by 25. I played like shite in both. Absolutely torched by Kobe Bryant and James Harden.
...i have no idea how they expect a rookie with 1 start to guard Kobe and James Harden. Every defensive set my Teammate Grade is getting dropped and I'm eating up stamina just to stay with these guys.
I did have 2 plays last night where I literally dropped the controller and walked away screaming I was so pumped up.
#1) End of 1st Quarter. Drained buzzer beater from opposite free throw line. 3/4 court shot, draino. Shot Clock CHEEEESE.
2#) @76ers. My first start. Literally a minute into the game. Blew past Jason Richardson on a pick and roll. Drove into the paint. Spin move around Bynum. Two Hand Power Jam over the top of him. 78 on the Sprite Dunk Cam. was fricking sick.
...after the replay they did a camera cut scene to 76ers Coach Doug Collins. Dude has this disgusted look on his face and was shaking his head.

So I've been playing My Career for a couple weeks. My guy is a 94 overall, best SG in the league, 4th overall player in the league. But no matter what, my players role is stuck on "starter" instead of "star." Any of you guys have this same problem?
