1. Purpose
Following regular- and post-season games in NBA 2K11's My Player mode, your
player is asked a question by a member of the in-game press, to which he can
respond with one of four qualities: Professionalism, Arrogance, Loyalty, or
Indifference. Your choice of response can affect three personal ratings
attached your player: Teammate Chemistry, Leage-Wide Popularity, and Local Fan
Support. These ratings in turn change the way the play of the game for your
player. For example, a player with low Teammate Chemistry will find the ball
passed to him less often.
The purpose of this FAQ is to provide a list of the questions that can be
posed to your player and the personal ratings changes that ensue from
answering with each quality. This will allow NBA 2K11 players to optimize
their created ballers' personal ratings.
2. How to Read
In the succeding "Questions" section is a list of questions, sorted
alphabetically - note that leading articles are not dropped for the purpose of
sorting. On the next line after each question is a tab-delineated list with
entries "P:", "A:", "L:", and "I:" respectively for the answer with the
qualities Professionalism, Arrogance, Loyalty, and Indifference. Following the
colon for each answer quality is a list of three symbols from the set "+",
"=", "-", and "?". The first slot records how answering with the given
question with the given quality changes the Teammate Chemistry, the second the
League-Wide Popularity, and the third the Local Fan Support. A "+" indicates
an increase; an "=", no change; a "-", a decrease; and a "?", that the result
is unknown.
For example, consider the following (fictitious) entry:
My sources in the league office indicate that a management change may be in
the works. How do you feel about your coach?
P:=-+ A:-+- L:+=+ I:+==
This indicates that, if the in-game reporter asks your player the question "My
sources in the league office indicate that a management change may be in the
works. How do you feel about your coach?", and you answer with
Professionalism, Teammate Chemistry will remain unchanged, Leage-Wide
Popularity will decrease, and Local Fan Support will increase, etc.
One additional caveat may prove of use. The text in this FAQ is (as close as
possible) the _written text_ of the asked questions. Rarely, the audio of the
question differs slightly from the written text, so make sure you compare the
written text of the asked question to the question in this FAQ.
3. The Questions
A lot of people were saying after the game that you took way too many from
behind the line considering how much trouble you were having getting them to
fall. How do you respond to that?

4. How to Contribute/Correct
If you want to contribute to or to correct this FAQ, please contact me at me
at imacdcptn@yahoo.com. You can send contributions in the form of questions
and answer results in the above format.
To aid your efforts, I'll share a trick that will allow you to find the
answers many questions quickly. First, unless you've already done so, turn
Autosave off (in My Player mode, load the options menu, then go to
"NBA>Options>Game Mode Options" and set "Autosave" to "Off.") Play a game
through as normal until late in the 4th quarter. Save the game and exit
("Pause Menu>Quit>Save Game and Exit" - make sure you choose a file to which
to save your game after you exit, as the NBA 2K11 will no longer autosave the
game to the My Player file you're using!) Now, go again to My Player and
re-load the game. Play through to the end and answer the press conference
question as usual, noting the question and results from your answer choice.
Then, repeat the last two steps - quit My Player, re-load the game, play to
the end and answer the question again (with a different answer this time if
it's the same question - questions are determined by significant game results,
so the question almost always will be the same.) In this way, you can fairly
quickly discover the results from all four answers.
