I haven't attempted that one yet. Beating the rebounding record seems an even taller order though.

actually, i got the rebounding one in an overtime game with dwight howard. just set the cpu's rebounding sliders to 0, and the users to 100... control just one the one player you want to get the rebounds with, and every time you get an offensive board pass the ball back outside and take a quick shot. i usually got 2 to 3 at a time this way. i also got 12 assists with howard doing this. also, intentionally miss your 2nd free throw, and your and 1's, your PF or C will almost always get that board. if you still cant do it, drop the rest of your team's rebound ratings by 50, and the cpu's as well... just bring your one guy up to his normal rating... i didnt need to do this, but i am sure it would help.

the assist one was really easy too. but 18 blocks? i cant get more than 10 even messing with sliders....

Thanks for the tip. (Y) How many rebounds did you end up getting with Howard to beat the record?

Nicely done. (Y) I was going for 101 points and 31 assists last night and was doing quite well, closing in on 48 points with Dwight Howard and 19 assists with Jameer Nelson just past the halfway point of the second quarter (I don't know why I was using the Magic, just felt like it I guess) when my 360 unexpectedly crashed. While it did recover, my progress was obviously lost. I wasn't exactly thrilled with the situation.

ok, so i created 2 teams, one of 5'4 guys with default 50's for skills, and one team of 7'6 guys with ben wallace attributes. i turned up a the block sliders, game speed to 100, all fouls to 0 and jumped at every shot..

i finally got the achievement lol.


i had 2 guys with 18 blocks each and 14,9, 7 with the other 3 guys. all generic players. it was a really odd double overtime win, 56 to 54 was the final score. i only scored when the other team got by me lol. i just ran double teams at every guy and held down LT (defensive assist) hitting A and Y repeatedly. a total waste of an hour lol

Hey, you got the achievement and the sense of accomplishment that comes with it. That's what counts. ;)
