NBA 2K13 'ASSOCIATION MODE' Discussion

[Maniak]

The year is 2020 and the Sacramento Kings have finally won an NBA championship.

Anthony Davis was the FMVP.

The only good players on the team were

C - Andre Drummond
PF - Anthony Davis
SF - Paul George
SG - Tyreke Evans
PG - Brandon Jennings

- Paul George was a 2x MVP and averaged a near triple double in one season
- George holds the assists record for kings with 23 in a game.
- For playoffs records for the Kings, Anthony Davis had 45pts in a game (17 FGM in another), Drummond had 30 rebounds in a game, Jennings had 17 assists in a game, 7 steals in another, and George had 9 TO's in a game.
- Kings had a 75-7 record one season (2018-19)

Kings have 13 division titles, 36 playoff appearances, 3 conference championships, and 2 nba championships in their history as of now.

Past champions since i began simulating:
12-13: Heat over lakers
13-14: Heat over thunder
14-15: Heat over nuggets
15-16: Heat over kings (sad)
16-17: Thunder over heat
17-18: Nuggets over Raptors
18-19: Heat over Thunder
19-20: Kings over Pistons (happy)

LeBron never left Miami and always won FMVP when they won.

[CanYouDigIt]

Did an old school SAC Kings Association for one year. (including a created CWebb

Traded Hedo and Vlade Divac for Rudy Gay.

Ended up winning the NBA Championship vs. Chicago Bulls

Lebron got injured at the END of the regular season. Heat swept the Cavs in the 1st round.

Playing with the Kings was so much fun, I suggest playing as an old school team during association, I might play with the Shaq-Kobe Lakers next

[CeltsGarlic]

Look how Jamal stole the ball from my celtics. Started association with fantasy draft.

Superstar level, 10 mins.

McGee (12 pts 7 rebs 2 blks)
Tim Thomas (7pts 7rebs 2 blks)
Korver (22ppg 49% 3pt)
Marcus Thornton (20 ppg 50% 3pt)
Rose (36ppg 15ast 4rbs 3st 65fg)

Camby, Selby, Carney, G.Green, Koufos, Bill Walker off the bench.

2 wins 3 losses.

Ok. Good to know

[Johnny Jones]

So I'm playing as the Pels.

Drafted KCP and Jeff Withey my first year. Tanked for Wiggins in the 2nd year.


My current starting lineup:
PG: Austin Rivers
SG: KCP
SF: Wiggins
PF: Anthony Davis
C: Jeff Withey

We have won 2 straight championships. Shit is too easy.

I remember in 2k12 the rating's of players who were good in their prime but now are sh*t like Baron Davis,Tmac,Ben wallace etc were very high is it still like that?

[Chizdog]

Ricky Rubio is a must have on your team, if you plan on playing games. Best passer with a good potential.

according to 2k aaron brooks is better than jeremy lin

[chips93]

I drafted a center 3rd overall but I already had bogut, so the rookie had to come off the bench. After a year his morale decreased all the way to zero. I planned on trading away bogut once the rookie developed enough.

But even though he's getting plenty of minutes, and I've changed his role to starter his morale is still staying at zero.

Do you guys know if a players morale can ever bounce back once it's hit rock bottom?

[RightTwoCensor]

It can't, you have to trade him.
