im really confused..... on how come you only have 4000 subs!! your videos are so clear and I understand them perfectly you audio quality is perfect and you're great at 2k keep it up!! you earned yourself a sub!!
Cheers Nate! Really appreciate the kinds words bud. I work hard on these so it's always nice to get some positive feedback. Hope you're enjoying the content dude!
Hi Ed, great video! I do have a question though, this is my first 2k game, and I'm not having trouble with most stuff, apart from steals. No matter what I do, I just don't get them. I've watched many videos, but nothing helps :( And I play on rookie/pro, so it shouldn't be that hard. I try to cut off the passing lanes, but i'm not sure how. Thank :)
You should try size up 49. It always gets me open when I'm doing a plain Iso. I have Limitless Range equipped so I can hit from anywhere. It's really simple and easy to make the shot if you have it down.
Great move - but i can't get it to work very often. Do you sizeup, before OR after faking going rigt? or is the fake right/left the size up? Cause I just keep getting stuck in the screen my self :P
Awesome video man...... I just have a tip if you want to make your channel "bigger", i think you should create a series of my career, ik that u did sthing like that, but maybe add, like "part 1-the creation" or sthing like that.....awesome vids keep it up, im not just being nice here, i actually htink ur vids are AWESOME
seahawkman22 Mate, you're a legend. Thanks for the love, I will try to one day! Im living in LA now so I'm not with chow and bask, and finding free time to do those real life basketball ones is a bit more tricky. I love doing them though so I'm sure I'll do another one one day!
Nice to hear from you. Have you ever thought of playing with fans on ps4 it would be fun if you ever get a chance too. Also i really enjoyed your reverse pick and roll tutorial really helped me step up my myplayers game.
Thanks bro gonna start playing 2k15 next week or so.. Its gonna be my first basketball game since 2k7 i think lol Im gonna play the mycareer mode exclusively..As a PG at first..Do you have any tips for a noob? :)
Esat Akan Get/Buy a release you know you can get green (perfect) releases all the time, cause if you get a green. Its going to go in no matter what, and always use that spin jumpshot when driving baseline, its cheese everytime. And upgrade your athlete till you become somewhat fast, not super fast, then work on your shooting, playmaking and defense, in any order.
TyqaPlaysHD - #1 Source For Gaming Content thanks man! Really appreciate the kind words. I think its just left and down on the d-pad, you have to be PG to do it though!
Ed, I am 40 games into the season i got 10 assists in a game but the state farm endorse didnt come through, do you have to do anything special? also im having the same trouble as TheMoosie I have the correct size up that you stated in the video but after the move my guy is very slow at cutting back against the PnR.
SqueekerBud You need to hit the sprint button only when you're bursting round the corner off the pick. Don't hold sprint unless you're making your move to the basket. That should help slightly. And I'm not sure about the state farm, I can't remember when and how I got mine, try google?
I'm really having trouble doing the size up move around the screen. I have the correct size up that you stated in the video but after the move my guy is very slow at cutting back against the PnR. What exactly do you do after you flick the right stick up for the size up? (Do you flick the right stick left/right against the screen? Or do you just use the left stick to cut back?) thank you!
+The Moosie i didnt understand the stealing in this vid and what is the best thing to upgrade and can plz do a vid on how to be a defender plz ur mate chase
Hey man. Nice video but I have a question. When I do the size up after I call the pick. My character takes a long time to switch directions and my defender is back on me. Pls help
XxHYPER MAN make sure you only press the sprint button when reversing the pick. Literally only move the analogue stick for the whole of the play, until you want to "explode" the other way towards the basket. If you time it right you should notice a boost and get by the man pretty easily.
how do you cut to the opposite side so fast bud? thats the main problem people are having with this video? I have the same size up finisher you have and I am not even close to cutting to the other side so quick, I get caught up in the transition myself. Thanks!
Yitzy Laza Hey man! It takes a bit of practice! I actually tried showing my mate this the other day and he had never touched the game before...he was finding it difficult himself. Remember it's all about exploiting animations with 2k. You won't be able to explode one way unless its a natural fluid movement for your player, thats why the specific size move i show you helps. That said, it is just like everything else in this world, practice make perfect!
My Player never changes directions that quickly like yours does. I go left, then immediately right and it takes him forever. Are you using crossovers to pull that off?
Chris Kartana Im using that pet move size up animation i show you halfway through the video, where my character pulls 4 crossovers in a row with just one flick of the stick, try that.
Any ideas if your playing a different position on how to get assists? I play as shooting guard and every time I pass the ball my teammates feed it right back to me. Could have had a ton of triple doubles, but can't get those assists! Would appreciate any help, thanks!
StrikeEcho Shit man! Well reversing a pick and roll should still work to some degree even if you can't call an isolation. Otherwise i would recommend just running pick and rolls. 2K's primary game mechanic has always been the pick and roll. It's just up to us as players to learn how to exploit that and cause the opposition guards to move where we want them to. Either reversing it or running a pick and roll normally and passing to the rolling man should get you assists. The other easy way is to pass in transition off a steal or a block, so maybe up your interceptor and steal stats and start reaching in the passing lanes. I pick up 2/3 of my assists per game off transition passes! Good luck though man!
***** That's usually what i try to do. I love the pick and roll and it works flawlessly to get a dunk or a give me lay up. But, when I pass out of it to an open player usually one of three things happen, they pass it right back to me, pass it to another player, or throw up a nice fresh brick. Not sure because I play with the Bucks the players are young and not confident enough in their shot making so they decide to pass or what. But, all I know is I usually end a game with over 40 points because I never pass because usually there is no benefit to me. So confused on what to do, don't know how many times I've sworn at Sanders, Parker, and Ersan playing this game! Now I should add last year playing on the Celtics I've never had this problem!
StrikeEcho fuck man, those are 3 horrible outcomes! The only other thing i can suggest is to play a 12 minute quarter game you don't care about, and literally try every single one of the set plays that the Bucks have. Often you find 2/3 that work a lot in terms of getting points/assists. But knowing you're on the Bucks, I feel a large part of it is that your teammates simply trust you more than they do themselves. Maybe a trade is in order...? I get you what you mean though, because whilst its fun to score a ton, it does wear out. Dishing around and putting number all over the box score usually is more fun. Are there any other tutorials on YT specifically for shooting guards?
You just made a good point, because now that I think of it usually Kidd has the order to run the offense through my guy. Hopefully the young guys will develop and become more confident shooters and until then I guess I'll be hanging on to the ball until the shot clock is at 4 to force them to shoot when I pass. And I'll have to look if there are any sg tutorials, if not I possibly see about a position change to pg. Thanks for all the help!
StrikeEcho Of course mate, let me know how you get on or if there's anything else I can help with! I'm on twitter @edpenn13 which is a much easier place to talk if you have it!
How would I get easy assists if I'm a small forward? I can't use the isolation so I'm confused and the pick and roll barely works because the PF and the C will just pass it straight back.
SteamBiscuit fuck no idea man, i spend a while flicking through all the animations. None of them are better though, it's just about practicing on one for ages so you get the timing down.
Carlos Benitez I'm not sure! I looked to see if the game had specific half spin animations, but i couldn't find the drop down menu anywhere in the my player options.
sahkanoodo No such thing as a dumb question mate! You just press left on the d-pad and it brings up the options. You do have to be a PG in order to pull this menu up though...what position is your my player?
Christopher Whaley Both sometimes, it just about getting your opposition player to move into the screenman, how you do that is up to you. Sometimes a cross works, sometimes teh sizeup, sometimes just moving, and sometimes it doesnt work and you have to reset the screen man again.
It was a save file. It took me 4 hours to even talk 2 somebody from 2k support for them 2 say ''You can't get it back''.But these techniques work great !
Carlos Benitez Just don't press sprint until your coming back the other way. Also, remember it's all about exploiting animations with 2k. You won't be able to explode one way unless its a natural fluid movement for your player, thats why the specific size move i show you helps so much.
Irshad Zahidi Yeah that happened with me too earlier on in the game. Only PG's can call plays....juts keep playing and upgrading your player. Eventually you'll become the star and the coach won't ever play you out of position. You can still run pick and rolls as an SG though, juts make sure the floor is kind of spaced if you do..
Nah no worries man! Sorry I didn't mention, you press left on the d-pad to bring up the playmaker menu, then press up on the d-pad to select the "my player isolation". You only have access to this playmaker menu as the point guard though, or if you've unlocked the On Court Coach badge.
What rating is your player/how good a shot is he? Nothing is guaranteed to work 100%, it's just what i found to be more useful than not. Anything that gives you a decent % shot in this game is a good play in my book, the shot going in or not is just down to your release and player stats!
edpenn13 ok thanks I just started my guy so he's pretty bad but he is a 66 shooting guard but I was able to always drive but it might just be me and I was trying to call offensive plays I'm but it never works
Rosetta Coleman It sure does man, it's actually easier to do on 2K14, you don't need that size move, you just call the pick, move slightly round the pick and then sprint the other way. I used to abuse it SO much more in 2K14, but they made it more difficult to pull off this year.
kevin franssens Pretty much man! The game doesn't change to much from year to year or console to console, I have another video from 2k14 on the ps3 with tips and trick called "how to get a triple double", that might help you too!
Check the manual mate, it gives you the full list of moves and how to do them - www.2k.com/manual/nba2k15/ Half spin is done by moving the right analogue stick out to the right or left (depending which hand is dribbling the ball) and then rotating it 90 degrees upwards.
I've been playing 2k my player for a couple of years... I trhink this years 2kmycareer is the worst ever. It is so fucking annoying I dont enjoy playing the game. If I play on pro it is way too easy and I'm blowing all teams out. If I play on all star I am losing every fucking game...I 'm on the Magic as a SF, first year, when I got in the staring 5 all hell broke lose, losing 25 of 27 games. I can not get assist because my team mates miss every shot, I average 21 points, 8 rebounds...getting A+ grades every game but my team mates are so bad it doesnt matter if I score 20, 30 40 or even 50 points...we keep losing anyway...it sucks.
Carlos Benitez You have to be a point guard to call it. It should still work without it, you can space the floor naturally by standing at the elbows and being patient on offence.
I think just lead the league in scoring and be the best player on your team! I'm not sure what the actual requirements are, but you need to be the best player, statistically, in the league I imagine.
I can only get 1-3 assists a game as a PG ***** I pass the ball alot and I give them good looks but 90% of the time they either A. Don't have the balls to take the shot, or B shoot and miss
Dynamite 01 Sorry to hear buddy, what team are you playing on? Who are you teammates? Do you have dimer equipped? When your teammates get the ball and don't shoot...are they open or are you just passing the ball to them with their opponent still marking them tightly?
Just got 6 but like my teammates like dont do much scoring. Even if I get 6 assists and score like 40 points we usually lose and the Wizards. ***** definitly leaving after this rookie season. I got like 12 games left in the season and im 72 Overall so I should get to 73 or maybe 74 by the time the seasons over
***** playing for Lakers now I am 75 Overall Point Guard. Scoring 30 points a game and getting A+ teammate rating and averaging 7 assists and my team is 1-8...... Whyyyyyyyyy
im really confused..... on how come you only have 4000 subs!! your videos are so clear and I understand them perfectly you audio quality is perfect and you're great at 2k keep it up!! you earned yourself a sub!!
Cheers Nate! Really appreciate the kinds words bud. I work hard on these so it's always nice to get some positive feedback. Hope you're enjoying the content dude!
great tips man! after all your how to steal videos im so happy you brought out another tutorial!
Ed Penn, you are a god amongst men. Incredible video, can't wait to try out these moves.
I love you.
Camille Dodson Acknowledge me woman.
***** XDD i love you ;D
Was waiting for this video haha you do one every year I love it
By the way if you didn't already realise I'm "YaBoyJ" , the one you talk to on twitter haha
Hi Ed, great video! I do have a question though, this is my first 2k game, and I'm not having trouble with most stuff, apart from steals. No matter what I do, I just don't get them. I've watched many videos, but nothing helps :( And I play on rookie/pro, so it shouldn't be that hard. I try to cut off the passing lanes, but i'm not sure how. Thank :)
Lækker Fyr Hey buddy! Before i get super in depth, have you seen my steals video? It's on my UA-cam Homepage.
***** oh sorry, thanks, i'll watch it now ! :D
You should try size up 49. It always gets me open when I'm doing a plain Iso. I have Limitless Range equipped so I can hit from anywhere. It's really simple and easy to make the shot if you have it down.
Maddox Fair Oh nice tip! I'll check it out, cheers man!
Great move - but i can't get it to work very often. Do you sizeup, before OR after faking going rigt? or is the fake right/left the size up? Cause I just keep getting stuck in the screen my self :P
Niels Smed Before moving to the left or right. So it's call pick, size up, sprint opposite way.
*****
Epic! Thx mate :D
every time I call isolation a guy always goes for the post and stops this play plz halp
+Gabriel Tommy call the isolation first, then the pick and roll.
Yeah I got it now bud, thanks a lot for the help man. You are great!
Awesome video man...... I just have a tip if you want to make your channel "bigger", i think you should create a series of my career, ik that u did sthing like that, but maybe add, like "part 1-the creation" or sthing like that.....awesome vids keep it up, im not just being nice here, i actually htink ur vids are AWESOME
Appreciate the constructive feedback man! I'll take it into account, really I do appreciate it buddy. Hope you've had a good Christmas!
Mate your a legend And also can you do more of your go-pro basketball challenges
seahawkman22 Mate, you're a legend. Thanks for the love, I will try to one day! Im living in LA now so I'm not with chow and bask, and finding free time to do those real life basketball ones is a bit more tricky. I love doing them though so I'm sure I'll do another one one day!
Nice to hear from you. Have you ever thought of playing with fans on ps4 it would be fun if you ever get a chance too. Also i really enjoyed your reverse pick and roll tutorial really helped me step up my myplayers game.

+Malik Clowers CHEERS BRO!

nicely done! Next target is 20!
You press - then down on your D-Pad on ps or xbx
Gavin Wilson Hell yea Gavin!

TyqaPlaysHD - #1 Source For Gaming Content thanks man! Really appreciate the kind words. I think its just left and down on the d-pad, you have to be PG to do it though!

Thanks man I sub and it helps
dude thanks so much I know im late :P
Hahaha no worries bro!
Can you do the half spin cheese in 2K14?
Cuz that op spin move is lethal O_o
Shizoni..=D They toned it down in 2k14 bro, it was the most OP in 2k13! They nerved it then for 14 and now its back in 15!
***** daaaamn

Eric Jones No worries Eric, glad it helped you!
Every time I change to play to rip 5 alley before my game online it causes crashes as soon as I call the play
What is a pick and wool? Like a pick and roll for sheep?
juliansmiths87 Precisely. I grew up on a farm so there are plenty of animal references. #BAAAAA
I figure it out, now i am killing it. Lol
Hahaha yes Carlos! Once you crack it, the game becomes infinitely easier.
Bro This is really helpful but how do you dribble fast so the guard could nkt catch up to you?
Just up your speed/acceleration stats dude!
thanks! subbed
What position are you in order to do the windmill dunk?
Trevon Brodie You can be any position man! Just make sure you have the athletic windmill dunk package enabled in your my player animations setting!
Any ideas if your playing a different position on how to get assists? I play as shooting guard and every time I pass the ball my teammates feed it right back to me. Could have had a ton of triple doubles, but can't get those assists! Would appreciate any help, thanks!

How long did it take you to be able to call plays your self
Reginald Gamble You just gotta be a PG man!
Very helpful man!!
Glad it he,led buddy, thanks for the comment! Hope you've had a good Christmas!
As a center I usually just attract a double team then pass it out
Samael Milevoix That works too!
Great info here. Thanks!! Liked and sub.
Harry McDowell Cheers mate! i see you watching a few of the others too, i appreciate it!
thanks this helps alot
No worries Jayden!
How would I get easy assists if I'm a small forward? I can't use the isolation so I'm confused and the pick and roll barely works because the PF and the C will just pass it straight back.
Alexander Demchenko Draw double teams man, just score a lot and they'll start doubling you,then just pass to the open man.
What jump shot are you using in this video?
SteamBiscuit fuck no idea man, i spend a while flicking through all the animations. None of them are better though, it's just about practicing on one for ages so you get the timing down.
thank you for the helpful tips
Dan Strommer No worries dan!
Which half spin do you have bud?
Carlos Benitez I'm not sure! I looked to see if the game had specific half spin animations, but i couldn't find the drop down menu anywhere in the my player options.
This sounds dumb but how does one call an isolation? I've been trying but I can't get it. Maybe because I have the ps3 version
sahkanoodo No such thing as a dumb question mate! You just press left on the d-pad and it brings up the options. You do have to be a PG in order to pull this menu up though...what position is your my player?
Are you crossing over or just moving
Christopher Whaley Both sometimes, it just about getting your opposition player to move into the screenman, how you do that is up to you. Sometimes a cross works, sometimes teh sizeup, sometimes just moving, and sometimes it doesnt work and you have to reset the screen man again.
Nice tips mate
Albert Ong Thanks buddy, appreciate it!
Who's release do you have?
ben gill Let me double check and get back to you, I know it's not anyone's particular, more just one of the default releases you can pick from.
how were you able to wear the Lakers Alternate Jersey in MyCareer??
Shake and Bake Oh man I'm not too sure! I didn't change any settings or anything. I think it just depends on who you play and if you're home or away
Hey edpenn im having problems using the pick and roll my dude in 2k15 in the xbox 360 is having a hard time doing the pick and roll how do i fix that
Patrick Gonzales I dont understand mate, what kind of problems?
There is no sizeup move in current gen could you tell me how to fix that btw earned a sub
Do you just run through the the screen or crossover
+StingRayBeast I use a hesitation move towards the screen, and then accelerate the other way.
Good job ser beast
The only setback is that if you have crappy shooting guards or even average ones they miss 6/10 open shots lol
MasterSly hahahahaha this is SO true. I was at Minnesota before this and I couldn't do anything. I slyly leave that out of the video...haha
I have 2k14 and i like the video i havent tried it yet but ill think it will work
Half spin is not useful in 2k14.
Supper helpful thanks man
Jared Hines No worries Jared, glad it helped!
Thanks really appreciate it!
Esat Akan No problem mate!
Hey, how do you do a size up?
EZEKYLE.3 Just flick the right analogue stick towards the basket.
For some reason my teamates wont shoot they just hold the ball when it is easier to shoot or they give the ball to me
CheshireFire are they shooters? are you passing it to the SG and SF?
Sound stupid but I'm new to nba 2k I'm on ps4 how do you do a signature size up?
And also can I add you on psn I'm british and my mates don't play nba 2k15
How you get assists if your a sg
How do you call an isolation ?
Tyler McGregor You have to be a PG to do it, and then its left on the d pad, then down.
Thanks, but have you ever lost a mycareer on nba 2k ?
Tyler McGregor like lost a game or lost a save file? I have both!
It was a save file. It took me 4 hours to even talk 2 somebody from 2k support for them 2 say ''You can't get it back''.But these techniques work great !
You are fantastic
Sergranczopl Not gonna lie, comments like this that feed my ego are greatly appreciated! Haha, glad you found it useful mate!
***** nice video you should do tutorial more often
What number is that size-up?
Mr.Shuffles Oh not sure man, it should show you in the video!
Man this is hard for me, i suck at this game, but thanks. I get it right once every 5. I just cant seem to move to the right and left as fast as u do.
Carlos Benitez Just don't press sprint until your coming back the other way. Also, remember it's all about exploiting animations with 2k. You won't be able to explode one way unless its a natural fluid movement for your player, thats why the specific size move i show you helps so much.
What's your camera angle
Tj Mosby 2k Tj. Then just as zoomed out and as high as possible so you can see most of the court.
I have 1 problem, sometimes i get subbed in as a shooting guard then i cant call plays
Irshad Zahidi Yeah that happened with me too earlier on in the game. Only PG's can call plays....juts keep playing and upgrading your player. Eventually you'll become the star and the coach won't ever play you out of position. You can still run pick and rolls as an SG though, juts make sure the floor is kind of spaced if you do..
K thanks
I am a small forward and I can't call plays
only pg can do that
hmmm I wonder if you could as a point forward.
Yeah I should have mentioned. You should have access to play calling once you unlock the On Court Coach badge!
Stupid question ... How do i call the isolation ?
Ikr same here
Nah no worries man! Sorry I didn't mention, you press left on the d-pad to bring up the playmaker menu, then press up on the d-pad to select the "my player isolation". You only have access to this playmaker menu as the point guard though, or if you've unlocked the On Court Coach badge.
cheers mate im beginning to love this game more and more now thx
This worked at first but after a while it doesn't work it's harder to get into the middle and most of the shots don't go in
What rating is your player/how good a shot is he? Nothing is guaranteed to work 100%, it's just what i found to be more useful than not. Anything that gives you a decent % shot in this game is a good play in my book, the shot going in or not is just down to your release and player stats!
edpenn13 ok thanks I just started my guy so he's pretty bad but he is a 66 shooting guard but I was able to always drive but it might just be me and I was trying to call offensive plays I'm but it never works
Ok Thanks!
Does this work on 2k14 also?
Rosetta Coleman It sure does man, it's actually easier to do on 2K14, you don't need that size move, you just call the pick, move slightly round the pick and then sprint the other way. I used to abuse it SO much more in 2K14, but they made it more difficult to pull off this year.
Are these the same for 2k15 on ps3?
kevin franssens Pretty much man! The game doesn't change to much from year to year or console to console, I have another video from 2k14 on the ps3 with tips and trick called "how to get a triple double", that might help you too!
How do I do the size up?
Ralphyy Flick forward on the skill stick man. That's in the manual of the game though, read it mate!
How do you do a half spin?`
Check the manual mate, it gives you the full list of moves and how to do them - www.2k.com/manual/nba2k15/
Half spin is done by moving the right analogue stick out to the right or left (depending which hand is dribbling the ball) and then rotating it 90 degrees upwards.
can u do the half spin on 2k16
+eli da kidd Don't think so bro :(
Left then down on dpad
How do you call an isolation on ps4
+Jayden bridge 32 left then up on the d-pad.
how do u call a isolation
logan leste gotta be a PG, left then down on the dpad.
the size up I don't have it on the regular NBA 2k15 my career
You dont!? That's weird!
I agree
Nothing happens when i press left on my dpad, why is that?
Same
You using a PG? if that is not the case, you won't be able to call plays in other positions unless you have the On-court coach badge
U have to have the ball or be point guard
How do you half spin?
Swaggy rz375 Move thr ight stick out to the right, then swing it up to the top and swing it back down to the right.
+Swaggy rz375 look it up
how do you do it as a shooting guard
You don't have the ability to call an isolation as a shooting guard unfortunately, but you can still run the pick and rolls!
***** that makes me so mad but it's all good
+Trillificent Trillogy I think you should be able to gain access to all those playmaker menus of you unlock the On Court Coach badge.
***** yeah I had got it a few days ago lol
Does it work on 2k14?
eesh not sure dude, try it and let me know!
It does :3
hells yeah! happy new year dude!
I've been playing 2k my player for a couple of years... I trhink this years 2kmycareer is the worst ever. It is so fucking annoying I dont enjoy playing the game. If I play on pro it is way too easy and I'm blowing all teams out. If I play on all star I am losing every fucking game...I 'm on the Magic as a SF, first year, when I got in the staring 5 all hell broke lose, losing 25 of 27 games. I can not get assist because my team mates miss every shot, I average 21 points, 8 rebounds...getting A+ grades every game but my team mates are so bad it doesnt matter if I score 20, 30 40 or even 50 points...we keep losing anyway...it sucks.
Cant you make a video with all your move bro
gamestyleplayed17 AW What do you mean?
All your cross over
how do I call in a isolation help please
+H20 Hysterical Can only if you're a PG, then just hit left, then down on the d-pad!
***** is it time isolation
I'm not sure what you mean mate?
Use the pick and woll
Ethan C-F *wool. It's all about the sheep bro.
true dat
I can't do the half spin please help
Jalen Lee What's going wrong for you mate, you need to tell me whats going on before i can try to help.
Nvm I watched the video again and figured it out thanks
Jalen Lee Safe, good luck with it mate!
true dat but that boy had me shooting in the all star game
Your so awesome!!!!!!!
Trevon Brodie Thanks Trevon! I take it this helped you out?
I cant call an isolation
Carlos Benitez You have to be a point guard to call it. It should still work without it, you can space the floor naturally by standing at the elbows and being patient on offence.
oh how do u win the MVP award in 2k15
I think just lead the league in scoring and be the best player on your team! I'm not sure what the actual requirements are, but you need to be the best player, statistically, in the league I imagine.

gannon grady Cheers Gannon! P.s. Great name!
its all about NBA2K14 much better game,any one with on this?
Yeah I'll actually agree with this. Felt like they put more effort into that game given it was the fort next gen relesese for the series.
I can only get 1-3 assists a game as a PG ***** I pass the ball alot and I give them good looks but 90% of the time they either A. Don't have the balls to take the shot, or B shoot and miss
Dynamite 01 Sorry to hear buddy, what team are you playing on? Who are you teammates? Do you have dimer equipped? When your teammates get the ball and don't shoot...are they open or are you just passing the ball to them with their opponent still marking them tightly?
Just got 6 but like my teammates like dont do much scoring. Even if I get 6 assists and score like 40 points we usually lose and the Wizards. ***** definitly leaving after this rookie season. I got like 12 games left in the season and im 72 Overall so I should get to 73 or maybe 74 by the time the seasons over
***** playing for Lakers now I am 75 Overall Point Guard. Scoring 30 points a game and getting A+ teammate rating and averaging 7 assists and my team is 1-8...... Whyyyyyyyyy
don't think u can do that on career mode
like my player mode? or Gm?
+edpenn13 career mode on 2K15. there's no GM mode on the one I have
thxs I did that but still got no MVP award James Harden stole it from me I only got the lead score award
Man fuck James Harden! That sucks, sorry to hear bro! Who you playing for at the moment?
