I played two games in a new season in NCAA 2k8 This is a new season, I was bounced in the 2nd round of the NIT last season. I thought my record was good enough to get in NCAA TOURNAMENT, but had to settle with the NIT. I would complain to the media on the game, but I don't want to make the NCAA mad at the game (maybe the 2k11 will feature a feature were you can suck up to the NCAA to get into the Tournament!
In the end I was glad I just made the postseason, I was also able to add some attribute to my coach. I added 1 point on my offensive skills. I think this will help the players year to year get better on offensive, but I honestly don't know how it works. My charaisma and teaching were the first two attributes I maxed out because I knew my players had to get better short term and I had to recruit better short term, because the game fires you after 2 bad seasons!
The offseason brought changers. I lost my SG and PG I signed two seven foot dudes Halloway and Slattery Slattery looks like a beast but his hands suck. I haven't gotten the ball to Hallaway much, but a 7 foot dude can still grab rebounds and steal
the ball. The length of 7 footers on this game causes lots of deflections.
I have some no name scrubs running the point and the 2 guard, but I figure
I will get to know their strengths and weaknesses as I play the season.
My first impression of the team was Damn Slattery is a big dude.
He takes up alot of space on my screen (like a black king hippo on Mike Tysons
punch out) Slattery's hands suck, so I have to put my player of the year
in Giddens to be able to score. Wow Giddens is way better this year.
He might be player of the country, fast athletic 7 footer that can get
out and run. the closest thing I can think about him being is a young
Tom chambers (with longer shorts of course) Trammel is still my high flyer
and it presents all kinds of havoc if I bring in three 7 footers and get Trammel
out in running. As it is right now I ususally have Giddens in there to score
When giddens gets tired I bring in Slattery and Halloway and try to
manufacture points. For some reason the computer refuses to have Giddens be in the
"quick pick and roll" play unless slattery is not in the game. I will never figure out how it bases who is in the backside of the quick pick and roll play (It sure as shit isn't hands because slattery has skillet mike sweeney hands) I am looking forward to drinking red bull and playing this season out.
