Superstar Level Sliders and Player Editing Talk

Superstar level sliders
First off, what up peeps?
Umm I've been playing NBA Live since the first game and I've bought it every year.
Aight now to the realistic type of sliders on the Superstar level.
Me and my crew examined different levels and the best one seems to be:
Game speed 75
User Close range shooting 60
User Medium range shooting 55
CPU long range shooting 45
CPU medium range shooting 45
CPU stealing ability 45
User stealing ability 50
If you are frustrated with the CPU whuppin' butt and not turning the ball over for the most part, that's going to happen here and there.
I mainly play the best teams in their home to gauge the CPU.
Stuff like Dallas in Reunion Arena
L.A. in the Forum
Sac-Town in Arco
Also I want to know how y'all feel about certain players edited.
Tim Duncan isn't even the highest rated player and he was the MVP(I ain't a Duncan fan but I know he's a baller)
Allen Iverson is back to the top of the scorers his FG's has to upped at least 5.
Stephon Marbury is low in rating.
Sam Casell averages 21 a game this year
Ronald Murray
all bench players who start now have to be at least edited in stamina and somewhat average starters or else they wouldn't be starting.

heya
that are high sliders i think, how long are your quarters ? with 75 speed...
i've played about 30 games and now on superstar i've got gamespeed at 50 user shooting 45/50/50 cpu the same and steals are the same as yours. i play 10 min. and shoot a 100 pts when i win and about 80 when i lose. about the ratings...get a roster patch. i'm only dissapointed that after i updated from nbalive.org Cezary Trybanski is overall 16
and Maciej Lampe about 30. And they threw out a free agent Szymon Szewczyk,who is from my city and i played against him in highschool

Our quarters are 6 minutes, we have a rotation so we can't play 10 minute quarters.
I mean it's about 5 of us.
You can't get the roster patch without being online, also all that is, is someone putting player ratings where they think they should be.
You mentioned some players being as low as a 16, I mean come on now, no one on an NBA court should ever be a 30 or a 16 in rating.
If you figure the best players are in the 90's in rating why wouldn't the average be 70's?
Also the below average players would be at least 50's, but 16?
LOL, dag what is he retarded and handicapped?
When the speed of the game is lower the players don't run for fast breaks as much.
Also you figure almost every player can hit open shots around the basket.
so with the close range shooting on default these players will still miss shots even if you're holding down the button and releasing at the right time.

Aight this is for the peeps who aren't online playing NBA Live 2004 & have no access to roster patches.
Tim Duncan is a 91 overall naturally.
Me and my crew figure Duncan is better than that since he's arguably the best player in the NBA and reigning MVP, this has nothing to do with "athleticism".
Of course KG is the NBA's best player in terms of production and "athleticism".
But if KG is a 97 overall Duncan should at least be better than a 91.
Okay in looking at Tim Duncan's attributes, We gave him 10 more in jumping to make that a 70 which is average.
We made his offensive awareness a 94 to match his defensive awareness since he's the NBA's double-double leader and most consistent player night in and night out.
We added 10 to his "primacy" since he takes the most shots on San Antonio.
Tim Duncan is now a 94 overall which is reasonable to me.
On Zach Randolph of Portland seeing that he is a 57 overall naturally and he averages 21.6 PPG this year and he averages over 10 boards.
We added 40 to his FG's making that a 78
We added 10 to his inside scoring making that an 87.
We added 5 to his offensive awareness making that an 84.
We added 10 to his defensive rebounds making that an 86.
We added 20 to his defensive awareness making that a 55.
We added 30 to his stamina making that a 75.
We added 30 to his primacy making that an 85.
Zach Randolph is now a 70 overall which is reasonable.
Peja Stojakovic is having a career year with Webber out.
We made his FT% what is is this year which is 92.
We made his primacy an 86 since he takes the most shots with C-Webb out.
Lebron James, I mean we all know a 69 overall is too low.
We added 20 to his FG's making that a 75.
We added 4 to his dunking making that a 96.
We added 5 to his jumping making that a 95.
We made his quickness & speed like Kobe's which is a 83-87.
We added 10 to his passing making that a 69.
We added 40 to his stealing making that a 72.
we added 20 to his defensive awareness making that a 64.
we added 40 to his stamina making that a 92.
and we added 20 to his primacy making that an 85.
Lebron James is now an 88 overall.
On Carmelo Anthony
We added 10 to his FG's making that a 78.
We added 10 to his 3pt. making that a 73.
We added 30 to his stamina making that an 80.
we added 10 to his hardiness making that a 70.
We added 30 to his primacy sicne he takes the most shots on Denver and that's a 90.
'Melo is now a 70 overall which is still low.
We edited:
Jamal Crawford of the Bulls who is having a breakout year.
Andrei Kirilenko of the Jazz who is also having a breakout year.
Larry Hughes of Washington.
Sam Cassell of Minnesota who is having a career year.
Baron Davis of Nawlins who is picking up the slack for the Monster Mash.
Michael Redd of the Bucks.
Paul Pierce of Boston.
Stephon Marbury to the elite status amongst players in the NBA.
Amare Stoudamire of Phoenix who is having a better year than his rookie season. (his dunking is only an 84, come on now, we added 10 to that, also his jumping is low, we made that a 93.)
Ron Artest of Indiana who is the NBA's best on-ball defender arguably. I mean his defensive awareness has to be among the NBA's best.
Jermaine O'Neal of Indiana to the NBA's elite status.
The Pacers as a team are too low in rating seeing that they are having a great year and are among the NBA's best teams.
Also C-Webb is too low in rating on the game.
We made him a 90 overall since we know he's among the NBA's best players.

big men such as tim duncan and shaq's ratings are low is because most of the areas a player is judged on are areas only guards and players that can dribble and run the court are got at.Kg's rating is high because he once played sf and has the ratings of one only he has better reb.

Its maaaaaaaany players rated waay too low. I also just don't like how they rate players from 0-99...March Madness did it best because the Players are rated from 50-99 but sorry players are under 50 sometimes..but the ratings for each attribute is 0-99.
U rated Lebron a 88....damm thas a bit high to me, I changed him overall to a 82, and Melo to a 80.

Those sliders are a bit high. I have my Inside/Midrange/Outside shooting set to 45/37/45 so that I don't shoot the lights out and I'm still 27-1 so far in my dynasty on 10 minute quarters. I shoot around 48% overall and average 101.3 ppg
