It's like when you have a kid that called next among men and you getting matched up with the kid. Plus alot of those lower rated players are newbies and some are just nuts so they are going to cause you to lose bc they are still learning how to play.

I have an 88 rated 6'9" center that pretty much kills people in park because I put all my skills into defense, athlete, rebounding and playmaking. With boosts he's so much faster than 7'3" centers and he can keep up with guards. You can't go just by rating, I have a playmaking Ben Wallace for all intents and purposes, and that's how I use him. Plus his dunk rating is in the 90s.

Anything involving stick skill sounds good to me

I think it will happen at some point. I think the issue is that it might lead to massive cheesy plays being created.

I'm a bit skeptical about this. Shot timing is already a headache sometimes from lag. Hopefully it's optional in all game modes and nobody is missing wide open layups. It only happens once a blue moon

It shouldn't be like that. There are plenty of low overall players that can play the game

Yeh but I'm talking about in general.

Sadly sounds like there isn't much love for single player these days.

I for one have little interest in online e-penis modes.

True but if it happens it will be rare like a lag issue. If you are lagging on layups I am sure you are lagging on jumpers. I like that there are no more automatic layups it should balance the game out especially after offensive rebounds where it felt extra easy
