Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Expanded Playcall System

I wonder if Strong Size Zone Defense is added to the Defensive Plays. Probably not but hopefully, zone defenses are improved in terms of the defense's spacing, crisp def rotations and aggressiveness to close out defenders.

I would've been happy with the 80 plays in the game - as long as all teams had access to them. If I am the minority with that stance, then ok.

No team in the NBA runs a pure zone defense. But that doesn't mean zones aren't a part of NBA defense, especially since they took out the Illegal Defense rule a few years ago. The point is, that just like in the NBA, I would like my defensive sets not to be limited to 4 simple plays. NBA defenses are much more complex. For example, I've been dying to try a Box and 1 zone against the OKC starting lineup, but in 2k10 that just wasn't possible.

You're right no one (that I saw) used a 2-1-2 zone in the NBA this past season. But you can bet your *** that if Turkey has any success with that zone if they play the USA in the FIBA, someone will give it a shot this upcoming season. Its called NBA 2k11 for a reason Holmes... lol

The Illegal Defense is still in. But they changed it. You get an illegal defense when you are standing more than 3 seconds in the paint with no defensive assignment.

The Defensive 3 second rule is much different from the old Illegal defense rule, because the rule change effectively made the zone available to NBA teams, which was not the case with the old rule. Regardless, that is not the point. I'm trying to argue that we need more options on D

As far as I know, in 2K10, we can assign any offensive plays (all plays) to any team, can't we? That's what I see and can do in PC version at least. Not sure in the consoles.

EDIT: I just tried it and saw that I can select from all the plays available (there are actually 117 plays if my manual count didn't miss).

Really ? Maybe it's just because I have seen the new ones but those old plays were just Terrible.

On a serious note after you see the videos pm me and let me know if you still feel the same. I am honestly looking forward to seeing if you feel the same way.
