Kevin Martin is a BEAST

[bigd916]

I can basically score at will with him. Lethal 3-pointer and any time you drive you eithier get a foul or a made lay-up.

Again, I don't know if that's good or bad.

I would have to say that the "beast" label depends a lot on the level you are playing on combined with the slider settings you have got going...... I can make a lot of guys a beast on the right setup...... we all can.

I would guess that since he is not on of those "99" players - you play above the current level/settings and should bump it up or risk being bored.

Re: Kevin Martin is a BEAST

Well, he's crazy efficient in real-life. Drawing all those fouls and converting at a high rate is the cause of most of it, but he's just equally deadly from everywhere and has the handles and speed to get his own shot unlike a lot of the other good shooters. I have no idea how that funky shooting form works so well, but he's a monster... gonna have a nice year. Kinda kicking myself for not drafting him in my fantasy league.

I haven't actually used him in 2K9 -- maybe that'll be my offline game tonight.

Point taken...

But online/offline....with default sliders....its the same story each time.

I wouldn't use online to strenghten your point. Everyone has that potential online.

How is he on HOF defualt?

Kevin Martin is a beast in the game as well. He can do almost anything offensively at a high volume. Just make sure you get his release right and not shoot it when you got a hand in his face and he gives you 25 a night. He's doing that for me on my fantasy Kings franchise.

Re: Kevin Martin is a BEAST

Yeah, this guy is a freakin monster! I played against him in my franchise the other night( I am the Lakers) he dropped 30pts on me and I couldnt stop him, even with Kobe on him. I never really seen this guy play. One question, does he really shoot like that in real life?

Re: Kevin Martin is a BEAST

Very good offensive player in real life. However, he is not a top 25 player in the league today.

Yes, it's a really awkward shot but he gets it off without too much trouble. He's probably the quickest player over 6"5 in the NBA.

I live in Sactown, and I gotta say, he's labeled as a "***" to me.

Re: Kevin Martin is a BEAST

Yeah I played Sactown the other day in my association with Miami and he and DWade went at it all game. It was crazy because he was so efficient just like in real life.
That was one of the games that drilled home the no possesions off rule to me.

Yeah Ive been a Kings fan since the Webber / Peja / Divac days, and even thou they have never been my favorite team (Im from Canada, so its obvious who my fav is) I always liked them. Joined a league and my favorite team left to pick was the Kings, and since then ive only been using them until the league fills up, and Kevin Martin and John Salmons are the same... Once you figure out their shot, its lethal cuz they can both do it from the paint

BUT... Donte Greene is the GOD of the Kings on 2K9. He can block, steal, dunk, shoot, just everything. He is a 6'10" monster. Ive scored over 30 with him multiple times and hit 3 GW baskets in a 5 game span with Greene. Just amazing
