Help defense maxed out helps to compensate for less sticky on-ball D.

I have Defensive Awareness at 99. It seems to work better with my sliders. Any little change in sliders effect other areas. At 100, the defense wouldn't swing it's hands for blocks and kept doing the vertical jump. It also wasn't reaching unless someone attempted a layup/dunk. I have help D at 50 because at 100 the slightest movement by offense would cause off ball defenders to move out of place to help. It leads to open jumpshots/cutters left and right. Especially in human vs human games. Also pick and roll defense can get torn apart easily. I noticed it before even adding it to my sliders but wanted to see if others would also which they did. Once I brought it back down to 50, people enjoyed it more and are loving the sliders.

Whether this is bigs getting routinely beat down court by their opposing bigs or people being slow to rotate I think it's all tied to the slow animations on defense. Good defense has a lot to do with anticipation over just reaction which is why I believe everything appears in slow motion when on defense. Guess the wrong direction or overplay someone you will get burned in 2k because it's hard to recover and gain momentum to get back into position. IMO I think that's why the game controls how it does on defense. I think the motion/animation speed of defenders both on and off ball can be extremely slow. They have to improve the locomotion of defenders in the way they back pedal, closeout, cut, turn, and accelerate.

Facts, I was playing a game and everything was out of sorts, really whacky. CPU running the same play the whole game, shooting 55 3pters, players glitching into each other, horrible defensive rotations, all the mean while the CPU can do anything they want, I really want to enjoy this game but it's a frustrating experience.
