we would get slaughtered at the starting 2 or 3 or both if we had that starting line up. Whichever player jeff guards... the other wing would ball on bonn donkey all day.
Pg Tony P.
Sg Jefferson
Sf Bonner
Pf Blair
C. Duncan
Bench
Pg.Hill or Mason
sg Manu
Sf Bogans or Mason
Pf Dice
C. Ratt on Ian.
Pop gets his smallball & still some bigs coming off the bench. Bonner I know in the starting line up, that's just cuz Pop gotta stick him in there somewhere so sf for his shooting an lenth. What you guy think of that? Be nice!

Jermaine is raising the bar.
take bonner out and the overall rating will skyrocket....
There's nothing wrong with this thread.
That lineup on the other hand....
Jermaine, I've had good results with this lineup:
Parker
Mason
Jefferson
Blair
Duncan
Manu
Hill
McDyess
Hairston
Bonner
Mahinmi
Bogans
Hairston, Bonner, and Mahinmi provide a good bit of energy coming deep off the bench when everyone else gets tired.
Its better than a trade thread or a Camby thread! This is strickly for s & kicks! I'm tired of all the same lame tired trade talk or bashing Pop for smallball. If you think it sucks do what everyone else do that view an not reply!
I insert manu in for bogans so I have tony/manu/RJ/duncan/blair
If you don't over-use turbo you won't ever have to sub anyone out in a 5 minute quarter game, so why play with the scrubs?
It's different with sliders, fatigue, and longer quarters.
More shots taken in longer quarters creates tired players....

I am one of the people that plays TEAM ball! I like to see Hill & Mason play. I wish it was more people online that played 8to12 min qtrs! Their called Subs for a reason.
You should get Nba live
The only thing Live has over 2k is the fact that the online service actually works.You should get Nba live
I really like the Tony Hill Jefferson Blair Duncan starting lineup, with Ginobili and McDyess first off the bench on the wing/up front. It's the best one we've got short of roster changes to be honest.
And Live > 2K imo lol
Well I dont know about that, but if you say so, another reason for me it was better to get live, online service is working well on live.
2 months ago I was thinking which one I should get and I had a look at 2k10 but then I thought live looks a lot better.
Yeah that's a nice line up. But I usually just play the dynamic season with the lineups how they are in the actual games.
parker, bogans, jeff, dice, duncan.
at 2 min subs
hill, gino, mason, duncan, mahinmi.
bring back dice when 2nd qtr starts.
i use whoever is the hottest btwn bogans, mason, jefferson to rotate the 2/3 spots for the rest of the game.
been taking names...
Hahaha this!
What do you mean by sliders?
There are multiple sliders that adjust different settings which can be used to change the game play. For example, you can move a jump shot slider up to increase the chances of making a shot, or decrease it to lower the chances. They're usually used to create a more sim-like experience because retail sports games are usually very arcade like out-of-box to purposely appeal to more casual sport gamers.
Thanks for the explanation. I own the NBA 2k10 for PS3, and absolutely love it! I've the sliders on the option screen but wasn't sure what they are for. Do you usually change them for games against the CPU? Or do you adjust them for online play? Would you suggest changing the sliders from defaults? Right now, all of them are at 50% by default.
Also, I don't know how NBA Live as any argument of being better. I've played with both, and NBA 2k10 looks a lot better and most importantly plays more like the real thing. Nba Live certainly improved over the the previous years with Live 10, but the game play is still short of the NBA 2k10 qualities. In 2k10, you have more moves and shot-types that you can control. The only reason I would suggest one to buy NBA live if they want an easier game to play (such as the people that like Virtua tennis over Topspin).
I use them against the CPU because most of the time you can't edit those online, or can't get into an online game. I'd recommend changing them if you personally feel that the computer (or yourself) is shooting at to high a percentage, or if anything else seems unrealistic.
I can't tell you what each setting is exactly because my 360 broke, but I usually change these settings:
Close shot
Mid-range
3-point
Dunk
Dunk in traffic
Defensive help
Clutch factor
Difficulty level: Hall of Fame
Quarter length: 8 minutes
Turning off clutch factor in the settings, and game play options is important because in 2k there are hidden stats affected by it that could completely (and unrealistically) change the momentum of the game.
These settings coupled together should give you some realistic stats if you play the match yourself.
Thanks for the help! So it sounds like the sliders are mainly to change the computer characteristics and not as much as the players characteristics?
I've only been playing for about 2 weeks now. It's actually hard for me to beat the computer at Pro level. Is it because of the sliders?
No, the sliders (they are seperate, best to make both User and CPU similar) control both the user and CPU's shooting percentages, blocking percentge, fouls percentage and steals percentage, etc on whatever you change, to make it even. The best thing to do is to reduce shooting percentage, try to increase the fouls (because sometimes fouls are never called). You do this to make the game more realistic. You may want to go to 2ksports.com to check out its forum on the game sliders.
Out of the box, the game has very very poor CPU sliders. They hit a ton of jumpshots and 3's, and rarely attack the rim.
2kShare even offers personal sliders to be uploaded, which I would recommend you looking into.
My lineup for the Spurs in 2K10 is:
Duncan
McDyess
Jefferson
Ginobili
Parker
Bench:
Ratliff
Bonner
Keith Bogans
George Hill
Mason
I wish Blair was better in the game. It seems like even though they offer living rosters, Blair is wayyyy underrated in this game.
What do you mean by "personal" slider? Is it through NBA2k10?
Also, I've notice the abundance of 3 point shots. That's why I always set to where my defense plays tightly.
