Things About 2K9 That Makes Your Blood Boil

[Deviant]

So, after going through my T'Wolves franchise and getting frustrated with it (I completed the season, but it wasn't worth it), I decided to use Sacramento. They're more fun to use (surprisingly, they can shoot the lights out), but I didn't expect it to be a cake walk. I actually went 2-8 in my first ten games, but it was still fun to use them. However, I wanted to make moves.

I shipped Beno Udrih and Brad Miller so I could get a much better point guard in Jason Terry (along with Dampier). Terry was great. However, I only played three games with him and he tears his achilles tendon on a layup because Brandon Roy hacked him and he's out for the season: first player in the season to be out for the season. Great, now I'm left with Bobby Jackson... but, no worries, I make another trade to acquire Keyon Dooling... only to have him have a severe ankle sprain and now he's out for 6 weeks. Anyone else ever been dicked over like this by 2K9 before?

lol can't say that I have. Especially with the new patch, seems like players never get injured anymore.

before the patch I had at least 1 player hurt at any given time which imo was really fun, filling the holes that is.

Can not say I have. I have only seen 2 players hurt so far, Derrick Rose, and Steve Nash, both for just a short amount of time.

This is with the new patch too... which is what is surprising about all of it.

I've injured two CPU players when they were on fast breaks by fouling them hard

The thing that pisses me off in this game is how some players can actually turn into a god right in front of your eyes. I've seen a player score 27 points in the first quarter before.
