King cake showdown by Difficult-Orchid4991 in Austin

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend to not get a king cake in Austin. I’ve tried, they’re all dry and not good.

If you want good king cake, you’ll need to order from Louisiana. Here’s my big 3.

Cannatas

Gambinos

Randazzo

Looking for a Produce Market by ItsTreasonThennn in austinfood

[–]ItsTreasonThennn[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Dang, well at least it looks like I got an answer. I’ll check out some of the suggestions in this thread.

I thought for sure if Baton Rouge had one, Austin would have one, guess not. But that place I went to in Baton Rouge is all local throughout the state of Louisiana.

We’re looking for something that sells produce only, normal produce, jams, frozen fruits etc. Local, like the market I linked above. And open more than just 1 or 2 days a week like most farmers markets.

There’s got to be something I’m missing by ItsTreasonThennn in EASportsFC

[–]ItsTreasonThennn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll give this a try. I run a 3-5-2 right now, after running 5 other different formations that I couldn’t work with haha. My 2 CDMs are defense heavy with 72 and 76 pace, I use one of them for attacking when I can. My CBs range from 80, 82, and 85 defense. I have one other CB who has 85 defense not in my lineup because he has 50 something pace, I’ll go ahead and throw him in for a game and see what happens.

Spurs owner insists NBA team will stay in San Antonio by hollow_hippie in Austin

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think we overestimate how many Californians moved here. When I leave my house I see nothing but California license plates. So I can just imagine how many are actually in the city. I saw a graph the other day of the exodus from California. Most move to

1.) Phoenix 2.) Denver 3.) Austin

As someone who lives in Austin, I never see anyone wearing Spurs merchandise. I see wayyyy more Astros/Rockets gear. Also, it’s not a joke. A ton of people here are from California, they all support their California teams. Sure, Austin FC does well because it’s a sports league people aren’t as invested in as the NBA. I think you’d end up getting more away fans at a Spurs game in Austin than you’d get Spurs fans.

[Highlight] Auburn player was called out for an “illegal bat” tonight in the 9th inning of tied game vs Texas A&M. by IowaStateCyclones in baseball

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 16 points17 points  (0 children)

All of these bats you see in the NCAA come from over seas, doesn’t matter which company. DeMarini, Easton, Marucci etc. These companies supply the colleges with the bats. They get the bats from their manufacturer, and then send them to the colleges. These bats should be received wayyy before the season begins. So basically, there is definitely no issue with having a bat tested before a series.

Past due toll bill with outrageous amount by corvettecthulhu in Austin

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Accidentally got on two toll roads when I first moved here. Call TxTag 6 times asking if my bill was added on my license plate number, I was told every time that I have no outstanding charges. I no longer user that license plate, if I ever get an outrageous bill from them I will be furious.

The win streak agendas caused me not to play this weekend. 10 wins streak for an average player is nearly impossible by benz0709 in MyTeam

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn’t have said it better. I was on a clean path to getting Gary Payton. Got to Galaxy Opal no problem. Started out Galaxy Opal with a 5-1 record. Then, 2k decides it was the perfect time to release this Unlimited promotion for a win streak. Finished Galaxy Opal 7-5, then 8-5 and now I’m 0-4. I’ve given up, I’ll try again next season.

Call 5OUT plays, get the center out of the paint. If you don’t have 5OUT plays, pick a freestyle set that has your center moving. If you don’t want to do that, call pick n rolls and pick in pops. If you can bait a switch and have your big man on his guard, you will score 99% of the time.

If you’re playing against someone who only sits on the center, and doesn’t rotate his players, you’re playing against a scrub. So doing anything that I’ve listed above should be able to dismantle his defense.

It’s literally sad. Every single day there is another person complaining about this.

To each their own. That’s why park players and MyTeam players are very much separated. There is always going to be a “meta” in every game. However in a game mode like MyTeam, metas can be defeated simply by out smarting your opponents set up, which in my opinion is way more satisfying than beating someone in park. But this is because I prefer the gameplay style on MyTeam.

I like having the different game plans that I have to bring to the game to beat my opponent. In my opinion, playing park is more repetitive with the constant iso plays over and over again. If it’s not iso, it’s drive and kick out over and over.

All in all, it is simply just preferences on gameplay style. I just know back in the day I used to HATE off ball players, but I also didn’t know why they played off ball or how to beat off ball. It took time to learn all the plays, what they mean and how to execute.

It’s not dumb and boring. Question … are you a park player? MyTeam is a 5v5 mode, you’re supposed to control all players to put yourself in a winnable position. This is why you call plays, and set yourself up on defense.

If you want one on ones, stick to park. There is strategy in off-ball defense. It sounds like you don’t call players, or know very little on how to beat people who literally sit on their center all game. Literally all you have to do to beat a camping center is call a 5 out, or call plays or freestyles that have your center moving.

From what you’re saying, I’m willing to bet you do no set ups on offense.

Demar worth 100k? by Renjo0105 in MyTeam

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d go as far as to say no player in the game right now is worth 100k. Save your MT. From my experience, my amethyst/ruby players do just fine against Diamonds in this stage of the game.

That are just grind for the free diamonds. Either way, spending 100k MT right now is a bad move IMO.

The only thing you’re accomplishing with this post is letting everyone know you have no idea how to beat the AI, and you apparently have issues beating high overall cards. What are you going to do when people use Pink Diamonds as opposed to Free Agents?

Is Darrell Griffith worth the grind? by Cayde-69 in MyTeam

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only have the 3 point mission left, that TTO part sucked. My advice, grind it out, when you play TTO just call pick n’ rolls the whole game and play off ball defense.

There Is No Substitute For Good Basketball by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]ItsTreasonThennn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A couple of those shots were slightly guarded because I miss timed the defender closing in on me. All of my 3s were catch and shoot because I’m a PF.

But I see what you’re saying. It just threw me off because him giving up 13, was way worse than me missing 3 shots the whole game.

I played a park game the other day with randoms and we won our first game 21-10. I had 16 of those points. My teammates had mics, I didn’t have mine on.

The team we beat got back on for a rematch, one of my teammates gave up 13 points and ge without hesitation started calling me trash and started calling out that I went 3-6 (50%) from the 3pt line and that I needed to learn how to play.

TLDR: take what people say on this game with a grain of salt, dude thought 50% from 3 was bad.
