Nba 2k12 pc overall 99
Mayo has some nice plays including a few offscreen plays and some isos that give him a chance to attack the rim. Mayo is best used off a screen, but can attack the basket effectively. Key Ratings - 82 3 pt, Off Awr 79, 89 vert, 91 quickness, 45 consistency, 80 layup. Pietrus may not be the athletic phenom that he was when he was dubbed the "French Michael Jordan", but he's still a very valuable player, especially in NBA 2K12.īest Used As: A poor man's Shane Battier with more athleticism. His 84 on ball defense rating is the best of any player on this list, and his 80 defensive awareness means he'll be looking to jump the passing lanes and get your fast break started. What you may not know is that Pietrus is rated highly on the defensive end in a couple of key areas. He's also a great slasher and can finish at the rim (84 Dunk). He can play either the SG or SF spot, but I prefer him at SF. His inside rating (89) and 82 3-point shooting give him the ability to stretch the defense. But don't let the 72 overall fool you, Pietrus offers one of the most complete packages for a sixth man on the court. 'Air France' often gets overlooked now that he's a rotation player on Phoenix. Key Ratings - 89 Inside & 82 3-PT, 84 dunk, 74 LowPostD, 84 spd, 80 D AWR, 84 On ball D, 60 consistency. The best thing about Young is that in an Association, he provides a great slasher/dunk/put back man with the upside to become a very well rounded play maker.īest Used As: A high energy guy who runs the floor like a gazelle and throws it down on unsuspecting opponents.Ĩ) Mickael Pietrus - 29 yo, 72 OVR, SF/SG He also carries a consistency rating of 70, very good for such a young player. He's best going at the rack or throwing down putback dunks with his elite vertical and dunk ratings. His 99 inside rating combined with a respectable 76 3-point rating gives him some versatility. He's still very raw, but he has the ability to out quick almost everyone at his size. Thaddeus Young reminds me of young Gerald Wallace. Key Ratings - 99 Inside w/ 76 3pt, 88 dunk, 29 pass, 82 spd, 90 vert, 85 quickness, 70 consistency. The kind of guy who can get you 3 straight 3s or get you 10 pts in three minutes.īest Used As: Instant Offense off the bench ala Vinnie Johnson. He's an off-screen type player who offers you less defense than OJ Mayo, and lacks the athleticism of a lot of SGs, but has a more consistent outside shot. He can be insanely deadly shooting 3s from the right wing with his ridiculous range and easy shot to perfect. While injuries may have robbed Michael Redd of a potential superstar career, he can still light up the scoreboard in 2K12. Key Ratings - 80 mid w/ 84 3pt, 84 FT, 55 Durability, 88 O Awr, 57 Strg, 90 hands, 50 consistency. Definitely not my first pick for sixth man, but let's call him a sleeper selection.īest Used As: A true 3-point specialist with a little bit of athletic ability who won't be abused defensively. Rush plays well coming off of screens for his shot, but he can score other ways occasionally. His 88 3-point rating means he can knock it down with stunning regularity. Brandon Rush? Rush is much better in NBA 2K12 than his 65 overall rating would indicate. Key Ratings - 88 3pt, 75 on ball D, 65 consistency. He is a huge liability on defense however, so you may have to bring help on his man when he's on the floor, especially if he's guarding an elite player. With a quick release and a 70 consistency rating, Korver scores at a higher level than his paltry 62 overall would indicate. Run him off of a solid screen, and the opponent won't know what hit them. He can destroy opponents from mid-range and with the trey. The first is his obvious ability to shoot. Key Ratings - 90 mid w/ 89 3pt range, 89 FT, 83 hands, 70 consistency. (Michael Redd doesn't have any hotspots shown in NBA 2K12) To use these players to their best potential, go into practice and find their 'hotspots.' This is key to a good scoring Sixth Man.
In this installment of 12 in '12, let's take a look at my favorite 12 players for the 'Sixth Man' role in NBA 2K12. With a dynamic score, solid big man, fantastic wing players and a couple of young studs on your team, only one thing is missing.
