NBA 2K14 Path to greatness guide

Basic Keys to Success

If you’re going to complete Path to Greatness – or just enjoy NBA 2K14 in general - there🅷 are a few fundamental tips you’ll need to use. NBA 2K14 is no pushover; in fact, it’s one of the more complex and intelligent sports games you can play. If you take advantage of the game&r🐓squo;s smarts under the covers, you’ll be able to win most matches on your first or second try.

1) Use LeBron wisely - He’s almost always the best player on the court, but you don’t want to just throw it to him every time and run🐓 straight to the basket. No matter what team he’s on - the current Heat or the future Knicks or Cavs – there are complementary players whose skills you’ll need to exploit. You’ll want to use LeBron kind of sparingly at the start, otherwise he’ll face tough double teams at crunch time⛦.

2) Run plays - Freelancing every time you come down the court is a recipe for disaster. NBA 2K14 makes it easy to call plays by just tapping the left bumper. Calling a play in the backcourt or the frontcourt is a great way to move the players in an organized fashion. Even if you don’t know specifically what the play is supposed to do, between the on-court indicators and the screens that will get set up ๊automatically, you’ll be in better position to drive to the hoop or take an open shot.

3) Slow down - There’s always a temptation to push the ball aggressively once you get a rebound. While in some occasions that’s just fine – after all, who doesn&rsq🌳uo;t love a good fast break slam dunk – often a good idea to let the play come to you. Walk the ball up the court, call a play, let your teammates get into position, and take an open shot. Defenders are stronger than ever 🐻this year, and running around like a maniac and tossing up shots while draped by an opponent will guarantee missed shots and lost games.

Follow these basic tenets and you’re already ahea🐽d of thಌe game in NBA 2K14. Now, let’s dive into Path To Greatness!
