The Last 2 minutes of the game

Tue Nov 16, 2004 6:29 am

It seems that whenever a game is close at the 2 minute mark the other team just completely takes over, They seem to make every shot they make and you can't do anything on offence because your pass gets intercepted or your shot gets blocked, Does anyone else have this problem? :?

Not at all. In the last two minutes, I always end up making it a blow out or if it was a tie, I'd make it a 10 point game. All I gotta do is a full court press and keep chipping it in to my big man whenever I have the ball. I find the CPU to be really dumb in the last 2 minutes if I have a slight lead or greater. For some reason, the 4th quarter is always the time where I take over.

i find that in the last 2 minutes i break away, i am currently playing on superstar and have i am 27-2 and im am currently in my secong year and are 5-0. All my games are close except for crap teams and i always win by 10-15 points because i pull away.

when that happens, call a timeout.

I was down by over 20 with 4 minutes to play in superstar and managed to hit five 3s with Pat Garrity :shock:

But still lost by 10. Hard to say whether there is a catch up mode bug though however unrealistic that performance may seem

Man it just seems the opposing team does everything right and I do everything wrong, They're hitting crazy fadeaways, Making unlikely intereceptions and getting offensive boards, I'm going bald!

I always find the last quarter far too easy, i always catch back up, im thinking about having a cpu vs cpu last quarter in my dynasty to keep it realistic

It could be psychological.. once people start to panic in the last few minutes, people tend to rush things, which usually ends up in a loss for them. The key is to be patient and chip away any easy baskets and play extremely tight defense, then more often than not, you'll see your wins pile up :)
