NBA 2K14 (PS3) Path to Greatness: Fantastic Journey Part 19

Ben Gordon at small SF, Melo back in, yeesh. Hard times for the Knicks sans Bron. Both teams are Bad News Bears kicking it around. Drives are too easy for them so this tower defense is sorely needed 🏰. LeBron with 0 points cannot be. That's a bad inflection on me the player losing the spirit of this mode. Melo is third sneaky wheel in a PnR oop since when? I know he wasn't doing that in New York. And he's getting his sprints in like never before. Bombs it from the logo just wow.. Melo in the Garden is unfazed.

Did not foresee Dwight-Faried 2-man game cropping up a few times. I haven't felt outmatched to this degree in a while. 65% FG in the midst of shitting ourselves is a green flag. Would these teams happen in Association? Paul's delayed floater is served back, thanks game. Noah falls, Wade picks up the swat slack. I know he was a great shot blocker for a guard but still. Now CP3's jumpshot-botch-step through is turned away by Melo. No rhythm at all to offense and none coming on fastbreaks.

LeBron attacking as the cutter from the top not far from running tight end routes. Gerald is actually disciplined in my hands guarding Wade not left to his own devices. Bron is on it moving across the chess board to protect ♟️ He gets overly wild spiking some goaltends here and there.

For my next trick: Bowden closes out 4th quarter minutes 🤫 Melo is ahead in points but to be determined if it contributes to taking the series. Faried's propensity for laying back to steal has been glossed over. Shaking it up with Bowden at SF to keep some defensive equity. We swing it around the world until pump fake manipulation dishes Dwight a plate. Time to bring out defense that reminds them of the 90s Knicks. Have to stay focused on my playcall knowing wasting clock is ideal.

Melo should have taken the 3 down six oops. They have an opening having put Kenneth Faried in FT position. Jimmy went from not even in the picture to knocking home a last-gasp three-pointer. It's Bowden's "Kodak moment" as Reggie Miller would say. 📸 He's a long ways from Bakersfield and out of the Slamball arena. A scant 9 turnovers hit the under in a tight contest. We won a 2nd half handily for a change 👏🏻 Two triple double watches (LeBron blocks and Dwight assists) for the sickos.
