I also think in the 2k lobby they should show stats such as height AND overall, that will make it easier for people to decide if they want to play a certain crew if they cant fix the height exploits.
1. At one point I was playing a game and the opposing team subbed Yi Jianlan in as a PG against me. They posted him nonstop and my teammates couldn't hit a shot to save their lives. We wound up losing. 2. Those sound like TERRIBLE glitches. 3. And I'm glad to see someone likes 2k11 more than 2k12 like I did. My post player gets NO love in 2k12, whereas I was a late-season candidate for MVP and carried my team (the Wizards, ironically) to the championship.
I was saying to myself Chris playing 2K11 is the prequel..Its funny how you talk about the height and exploit I bring this up to my friends and they feel the same way too.
The charge I get called on most often is when you start to post up the defender and you barely bump him and he flops. And of course there are the cheesers who stand right in front of the guy who gets the inbound and there's no way around it.
Smoove is right. I have to say that the biggest issue online is not the gameplay or the game mechanics per say, its the people who play the game. It seems like a majority of people who play online don't want to play in a realistic way. They will do whatever they think will get them all the points and then the win.
I see two possible solutions for the free throw cheese. Option 1: Simulate the free throws in the final minute based on past percentages or your free throw rating. Option 2: Design a new way for shooting free throws, not based on timing.
I completely agree with you C. Smoove NBA 2k11 had it's flaws but compared to 2k12 it's overall gameplay was better. Also I felt NBA 2k12 clustered the right stick with too many controls. A lot times you would try to do a simple crossover and then your player would do a spin or something else.
2k is relaxing cause they had no competition. now as we know that live 13 will be back this year, 2k will show us all what they got. 2k13 will feel as mindblowing as 2k11. trust me...
I agree on the height caps but they should also go back to earlier 2k titles where the taller a player is at a position the fewer skill points, and the shorter a player is playing a position the more skill points they receive.
They should make it so that if someone presses "x" or "square" to try and steal the ball more than once behind the halfcourt line, it would cause an automatic reaching foul. No more cheese rage.
The Way to make My Crew work is probably a class system. People play within there role you can never be the best of the best. So when teams look for player they look for what roles they need. Like if a team is a great scoring team they might need to pick up a rebounding center. No one will be able to be maxed out only within there role can they be maxed out. There should be two leveling up systems, Skill points for attributes and Teammate Level for abilities . Like if you want to see this.!!!!!
In My Player they should add a gym mode with dumbbells and exercise equipment that way that can determine how big strong and fast your guy gets but they can keep the skill points
Loving this 2K11 gameplay, my friend was supposed to give this game after promising for a week and a half, but left school before I could get it from him -_-
@Smoove7182954 Yes, in NHL12 online if somebody lags they are the ONLY ones to lag and nobody else is effected. If one person on that team quits, the entire game is not effected.
I'm hesitant to go back to NBA 2k11, because I'm having such a good rookie season in 2k12, and also the presentation in 2k12 is so much better than 2k11, I don't know if bad gameplay is enough to make me go back.
You should make a episode with tips about how to do well in my player mode. I know I'm not the only one who has trouble with even getting a C Teammate grade in every game. That's just what I think though. Thumbs up so he sees?
@Smoove7182954 for them to get the online working properly, they need to re-write the net code from scratch. I remember reading in an article a while back that they keep building and building on the old Dreamcast netcode for the older NBA 2k games. They just update it for broadband instead of dial-up. So that's my way of "fixing" online.
How is Smoove still with the Heat? I thought he got offered to go to the Bulls or the Thunder. Do you get an option to return back to the team you were playing on when the season ended?
U make extremely good points SUBMIT THEM because the 2k community would LOVE to see crew come back minus the exploits -__- we should also have a live crew practice avaliable to practice created plays and what not
@TheTigerYumYums there's no such thing as "rights to the game mode". of course live will have it, only under a different name. it was supposed to be "become legendary" in elite 11 if i remember correctly.
Ya I went back to the 2k11 my player and the game play is way better. The spacing is fantastic and my team actually move around unlike in 2k12 they just stand around. They should take the concepts of 2k12 and the accurate shooting strokes and use 2k11 style gameplay and it would be great. But idk about nba live ea sports games aren't as good as 2k even if 2k12wasnt that good this year anyone else agree?
Im not sure how far your in 2K12 Chris but the trade deadline I would like to see what would happen if you traded yourself from the rockets to another team or start some trade rumors with your player in 2K12
@vegeta3739 He came into the league as a SF. He might play PF now, but im still gunna go with him at the SF. The point is the reason he's been a flop, is because he's not quick, and cant really handle that well. Hence, the cap on those stats
Smoove, I think 2K needs to have all online games real freethrow percentages. To get rid of the freethrow cheese all games should be players real freethrow shooting percentages period!
They definitely have to fix the heights.... I remember playing with a 22 ft guy (which was actually really funny) and also a 10 ft center who blocked my free throw....
chris do you have any advice on making threes? I make like 6 threes a game when my 3pt rating is at like 82 or 84, but whenever i bump it up to 90 my 3pt percentage goes down! do you think its best to leave it low?
@IHMKI The Cap for the height should = the height of the tallest player at that position: PG=6'9 (Magic Johnson) SG=6'10 (Paul George) SF=7'0 (Yi Jianlian) PF=7'1 (or 7'0. Has anyone seen a PF taller than Dirk?) C=7'7 (Gheorge Muresan) Also, cap QUICKNESS and BALL SECURITY, depending on the players height (reduces the effectiveness of a tall guard). Make the cost to upgrade this extremely high, depending on your height. Other than Magic, none of these guys are quick, or great ball handlers.
since your talking bout 2k11 , you should make a vid on how my players would make your name a whole bunch of boxes , and it would freexe , and wont let you play pickup games ! like i had to make 3 because my myplayers keep breaking
hey Chris, why dont you send the two vids to a official 2k site? they must know you, kinggreqo, ipodkingcarter and such. I think they will takeyour ideas and put them on paper for 2k13.
I think anyone should be able to play any position. But in that case if its not their best or natural position their stats should be decreased dramatically by like 10-25 points. Fair is fair
@Lucarinho agreed. 2k11 seems so amazing because it was such a giant step up from 2k10. But 2k11 to 2k12 wasn't very big at all. people were able to look past 2k11's problems because it was still so much better than 2k10. 2k12's problems are more visible because it's a lot like 2k11, so it doesn't feel awesome like 2k11 did. 2k12 is the better game IMO
They should put a specialty next to the players name, not talking about player description. Next to the players gamer tag in the lobby it should say specialty and then the different specialties should be cherrypicker, hop step, pump fake, all-around defense, all around offense, Two-way, just saves us some hassle so we know who we are playing with
@AJEdaAssassin31491 Or how about nba greatest moments like relive the jordan clutch shots, magic johnsons return to the allstar game after his announcement or rondo's triple doubles.There will be 5 new moments each week and completing them unlocks shoes,tattoo's,teams,etc. Sounds good right?
I think one change they have to make is when your player gets drafted, the team that drafted you should not have the player they drafted at your spot in real life. If you got chosen #1 by the cavs, they should not have Kyrie Irving on their roster as well as your my player.
It would b nice if u had a NBA 2k10 video just took it off; show us how far @2ksports has come along from the first ever "my player" mode.! Thanx and keep the vids comming
Evans really is a PG but he just has the height and athleticism to play the 2, and the 3. And if Salmons was actually playing good i'm pretty sure he'd start and evans would play the 1
im thinking about getting 2k11 again. 2k12's gameplay is horrible, it has some nice features, but i can live without them if it means better gameplay. but are the servers still up on 2k11? because if i get it i want a good 2012 roster from 2kshare
What they really should do is sorts what treyarch did in black ops. They made a competitive game mode and they banned things from the game mode like shot guns and noob tubes. 2k should make it that you can max out yourmy player at a 98. So when you play crew and go to select amy player they must be 98 or below. If there a 99 than they should simply just block that playerfrom entering into the crew menus. That's what they should do, or something along those lines
Not really a big deal but would like to see the option of making a shorter season in my player mode like you can for association. I don't like to simulate but I want to play more than 1 season.
hey chris can you tell me what am I doing wrong because I play a PG in 2k11 an all I do is upgrade my pass because everytime I pass it gets stolen and I get a lot of turnovers.Keep up the good work!
@420 Yes, I hated that BS when I walked up the court knowing my opponent was trying to take a charge, I am two feet away from my player yet some force field knocks me into my man.
@2010raquan thats what every coach wants as a PG but thats not necessarily what every PG should be. that past first play style works for some teams and doesn't for others. small PGs are usually pass first because they are too tiny to score
Hey smoove, why dont you upload some videos of creating a legend. When you buy the legends showcase dlc you can play as the classic players. Im sure we all would love to see you play magic johnson or michael jordan in their prime.
Fifa 12 online with 11vs11 team up run just perfect for me at least .. like regular online game , so EA servers gonna be great for crew stuff.. and imo thats gonna be main part why ppl gonna run to get live'13 :)
and they dont really go buy PG. SG, SF. PF,C. they just go buy Guard, Foward, and Center. some teams dont even have Centers. If you watch the games Tyreke Evans and other Guards play both so its just really the guard position.
Starting PG. 6,9 Earvin (Magic) Johnson... biggest fan though 11 years old till march 22 I recreate your character everytime I play a nba game planning on making it to the NBA hopefully I will and yeah thats about it #1 fan
Another thing, idk if you mentioned this im only like 4 minutes in, is the speed. Dwight Howard runs as fast as Ricky Rubio, and that shouldn't happen.
I also think in the 2k lobby they should show stats such as height AND overall, that will make it easier for people to decide if they want to play a certain crew if they cant fix the height exploits.
1. At one point I was playing a game and the opposing team subbed Yi Jianlan in as a PG against me.
They posted him nonstop and my teammates couldn't hit a shot to save their lives.
We wound up losing.
2. Those sound like TERRIBLE glitches.
3. And I'm glad to see someone likes 2k11 more than 2k12 like I did. My post player gets NO love in 2k12, whereas I was a late-season candidate for MVP and carried my team (the Wizards, ironically) to the championship.
You should do a video a day from 2k10 to 2k16
New fan here watching old vids!
lob music different back then
Man, I am starting to get better. Your videos are teaching me a lot. Thanks for making these videos. I learn a lot from these.
i love it that your playing 2k11 man. SO MUCH MORE ENTERTAINING.
In 2k13, I want to see that when you have your emotion up all the way you may have a chance of getting technical or getting ejected.
Another awesome game and video! Keep up the great work! Chris Smoove is awesome! Keep making NBA 2k videos! Love em!
The freethrows can be like NHL12's online system.
When a player pauses the game, the game continues as it would instead of having the menu come up.
i liked watching this vid so much, good to see the pick n roll work
I was saying to myself Chris playing 2K11 is the prequel..Its funny how you talk about the height and exploit I bring this up to my friends and they feel the same way too.
Nice vid, good memories with 2k11!
The charge I get called on most often is when you start to post up the defender and you barely bump him and he flops. And of course there are the cheesers who stand right in front of the guy who gets the inbound and there's no way around it.
nice choke Smoove, that's y u my favorite commentator, u also show your fails. Keep it up cuuh !
Smoove is right. I have to say that the biggest issue online is not the gameplay or the game mechanics per say, its the people who play the game. It seems like a majority of people who play online don't want to play in a realistic way. They will do whatever they think will get them all the points and then the win.
I see two possible solutions for the free throw cheese. Option 1: Simulate the free throws in the final minute based on past percentages or your free throw rating. Option 2: Design a new way for shooting free throws, not based on timing.
I don't really care what nba game you play, it's all great to watch
I completely agree with you C. Smoove NBA 2k11 had it's flaws but compared to 2k12 it's overall gameplay was better. Also I felt NBA 2k12 clustered the right stick with too many controls. A lot times you would try to do a simple crossover and then your player would do a spin or something else.
Thumbs up to Smoove for letting these vids fly everyday
As a Wizards Fan I really wish we had this team. John Wall, Kirk Hinrich, Danny Granger, J.R Smith, Wilson Chandler goddamn we would be good
2k is relaxing cause they had no competition. now as we know that live 13 will be back this year, 2k will show us all what they got. 2k13 will feel as mindblowing as 2k11. trust me...
I agree on the height caps but they should also go back to earlier 2k titles where the taller a player is at a position the fewer skill points, and the shorter a player is playing a position the more skill points they receive.
keep doing 2k11, i luv your 2k12 series but i think this is more entertaining
They should make it so that if someone presses "x" or "square" to try and steal the ball more than once behind the halfcourt line, it would cause an automatic reaching foul. No more cheese rage.
Dude I'm buy 2k11 based on your Video. You make that game look fun.
The Way to make My Crew work is probably a class system. People play within there role you can never be the best of the best. So when teams look for player they look for what roles they need. Like if a team is a great scoring team they might need to pick up a rebounding center. No one will be able to be maxed out only within there role can they be maxed out.

In My Player they should add a gym mode with dumbbells and exercise equipment that way that can determine how big strong and fast your guy gets but they can keep the skill points
I love that beat that plays when u throw a lob!!
Tyreke Evans played PG at 6'6. so the caps are right for 2k. I recommend these those
6'6 at PG
6'8 at SG
6'11 or 7'0 at SF
7'1 at PF
7'3 at C
Great video, the game is so much better/more fun than 2K12. I hope you make more 2K11 vids.
Loving this 2K11 gameplay, my friend was supposed to give this game after promising for a week and a half, but left school before I could get it from him -_-
@Smoove7182954 Yes, in NHL12 online if somebody lags they are the ONLY ones to lag and nobody else is effected. If one person on that team quits, the entire game is not effected.
watching this gameplay reminds me how I haven't seen the cpu double team in 2k12 all year
Its awesome smoove uploads videos everyday and its holliday because of snowww
OMFG YES! i love ur 2k11 vids :)
2k11 all da way keep on postin videos
I'm hesitant to go back to NBA 2k11, because I'm having such a good rookie season in 2k12, and also the presentation in 2k12 is so much better than 2k11, I don't know if bad gameplay is enough to make me go back.
the thing i hate the most about nba 2k12 is that the crossovers and hesitation moves dont even affect the defender
GUYS PAUL GRORGE IS THE STARTING SG ON THE INDIANA PACERS AND HE IS 6'10.
You should make a episode with tips about how to do well in my player mode. I know I'm not the only one who has trouble with even getting a C Teammate grade in every game. That's just what I think though. Thumbs up so he sees?

this video is smoove broo!!
U make extremely good points SUBMIT THEM because the 2k community would LOVE to see crew come back minus the exploits -__- we should also have a live crew practice avaliable to practice created plays and what not
@TheTigerYumYums there's no such thing as "rights to the game mode". of course live will have it, only under a different name. it was supposed to be "become legendary" in elite 11 if i remember correctly.
wow i didnt even realize this was 2k11 until you said it smoove... that shows how little 2k upgrades their graphics between games
i haven't seen you lead a game so much since your game against golden state at nba 2k12
I would want to see a Smoove MP that's not a PG. PF and Center would perhaps be to boring but a big small forward could be nice to see.
Ya I went back to the 2k11 my player and the game play is way better. The spacing is fantastic and my team actually move around unlike in 2k12 they just stand around. They should take the concepts of 2k12 and the accurate shooting strokes and use 2k11 style gameplay and it would be great. But idk about nba live ea sports games aren't as good as 2k even if 2k12wasnt that good this year anyone else agree?
Im not sure how far your in 2K12 Chris but the trade deadline I would like to see what would happen if you traded yourself from the rockets to another team or start some trade rumors with your player in 2K12
Only bad thing about this game is your teammates can't hit a bucket to save their life but I'd still rather play 2k11 over 12 anyday
U Got Swatted & He Broke Your Ankles At 1:39!! Good Vid Make More 2k11 Videos
@vegeta3739 He came into the league as a SF. He might play PF now, but im still gunna go with him at the SF. The point is the reason he's been a flop, is because he's not quick, and cant really handle that well. Hence, the cap on those stats
I think the alleyoop passing in 2k11 is so much better then 2k12... What do you think?
Hold on
Didn't Smoove say in his last 2K11 video, the one when he was doing the "My Jordan" gameplay, that 2K wouldn't let him return to Miami?
Smoove, I think 2K needs to have all online games real freethrow percentages. To get rid of the freethrow cheese all games should be players real freethrow shooting percentages period!
That line up for the Wizards is nice....
They definitely have to fix the heights.... I remember playing with a 22 ft guy (which was actually really funny) and also a 10 ft center who blocked my free throw....

@TutorialsBrought2You under the settings it something like shot timing feedback. turn that on.
smoove don't you think that in 2k12 there is no concept of miss matchup??? like pg vs center ??
@ConcaCon He was 6ft 8, he grew 2 inches over the summer. Google it if you don't believe me, they don't update nba.com player profiles regularly.
Inspiration for nba 2k11 thx smoove!
hey Chris, why dont you send the two vids to a official 2k site? they must know you, kinggreqo, ipodkingcarter and such. I think they will takeyour ideas and put them on paper for 2k13.

When I checked my subscription box and saw chris smoove with a 2k11 video, i said this isnt possible this isnt my favorite box
Evans really is a PG but he just has the height and athleticism to play the 2, and the 3. And if Salmons was actually playing good i'm pretty sure he'd start and evans would play the 1
More 2k11 Smoove! I hate 2k12 but love watching your videos!!
Chris why don't you do a Crew Game with some of your Subscribers? That would be a nice Video to watch. Greetings from Germany!
For 2K13, they should combine the customisation of 2K12 with the gameplay of 2K11.
im thinking about getting 2k11 again. 2k12's gameplay is horrible, it has some nice features, but i can live without them if it means better gameplay. but are the servers still up on 2k11? because if i get it i want a good 2012 roster from 2kshare

@chowstertwofour he's 6'10. he grew 2 inches during the lockout, and paul george himself has confirmed it. that is a tall shooting guard
I feel you Chris it's seems like everything was kind of perfect with 2k11 gameplay and 2k12 gameplay is just rediculus .
@FudgeNutMuffins Tyreke is a combo guard. And Magic was an exception. There are many times more PG's under 6'4 than over 6'4
Did Lebron finish the alley oop with the Karl Malone signature ?
Yo Smoove, your good at 2K11. You should do a Small Foward instead of Point Guard
hey chris can you tell me what am I doing wrong because I play a PG in 2k11 an all I do is upgrade my pass because everytime I pass it gets stolen and I get a lot of turnovers.Keep up the good work!
@420 Yes, I hated that BS when I walked up the court knowing my opponent was trying to take a charge, I am two feet away from my player yet some force field knocks me into my man.
@2010raquan thats what every coach wants as a PG but thats not necessarily what every PG should be. that past first play style works for some teams and doesn't for others. small PGs are usually pass first because they are too tiny to score
My buddy takes charges all the time in the back court and it's annoying as hell
I'm thinking a side[by]side comparison would do your next video all the justice it needs-
Hey smoove, why dont you upload some videos of creating a legend. When you buy the legends showcase dlc you can play as the classic players. Im sure we all would love to see you play magic johnson or michael jordan in their prime.
Fifa 12 online with 11vs11 team up run just perfect for me at least .. like regular online game , so EA servers gonna be great for crew stuff.. and imo thats gonna be main part why ppl gonna run to get live'13 :)
and they dont really go buy PG. SG, SF. PF,C. they just go buy Guard, Foward, and Center. some teams dont even have Centers. If you watch the games Tyreke Evans and other Guards play both so its just really the guard position.
Nice triple double in your first game back!
Starting PG. 6,9 Earvin (Magic) Johnson... biggest fan though 11 years old till march 22 I recreate your character everytime I play a nba game planning on making it to the NBA hopefully I will and yeah thats about it #1 fan
Another thing, idk if you mentioned this im only like 4 minutes in, is the speed. Dwight Howard runs as fast as Ricky Rubio, and that shouldn't happen.
I wish people from 2k actually saw your videos smoove.
im beginning to think its impossible to get good online gameplay in 2k because if it was possible, they would have fixed it after 2k8
