Try Defensive Awareness and Help Defense Strength Sliders at 0

[youngn791]

I have spent hours testing this and I am conviced this provides improved help defense. Please people test this and you will definitely see improvement. An easy way to test it is to start a quick game and turn off the shot clock. I tested against the Celtics since they have a high help defense team tendency. First try the help defense strength at 100. Spin or come of screens to drive the lane and watch how the players react in the paint. Then try it at 0 and you should see players reacting much quicker jumping over to take charges. Players will leave their man to help if you drive by them unless they are guarding a man behind the 3pt line.

Young you are absolutely right. I noticed after I did it post patch and it works. I hope all the slider makers peep this so they can add this to their slider sets. I was able to drive and kick.

young,

you need to spread this to as many 2kers as possible. I will not, since you posted it first you should take the credit. We need to test other sliders to make sure they are not backwards also. Some else posted tonight on the team selection screen to switch the cpu team playbook to ALL. Everyone need to try both of these. I played the celts and they fed ray, garnet the ball consistently. ray came off screens, and paul p. posted up. with the patch and these two findings this game went from a head ache to the best sports sim I ever played.

tested and true. wow. whats up with these backwards sliders like decreasubg durability, increases it. haha wtf.

well anyways great find. I wonder if there are other backward sliders.

I have tried the change and found that he is on to something. The CPU defense is not just standing around. They jump towards the ball, swat at ball if player dribble by the users player, double the hot player, switch on pick and rolls, I dont know but it seems to be more face up d, I really dont see the transition over on the users defense. Any other viable testers please post. Mind you, I did not change the def. awa to 0, just def. help user and cpu to 0.

the fact that many seem to be ignoring all posts with this info is straight weird. It has changed the game. The cpu is more active which allow you to penetrate and dish to the open man. You have to be aware of who the help defender is because he will be in position to defend you and bottle you up.

It's being ignored because it doesn't work

I don't nkow if it was tried before patch but it absolutely does work I sat there and changed it back and forth for an entire 12 min. game so I know for a fact it works.
