This is exactly what I want to hear. Hopefully, the days of driblling around in circles waiting for help to facilitate a kick out three are over.

Are you saying that you guys have been able to change up the help defense quite a bit?

If I can player lock Chris Paul, get beat by my man, and not have to feel helpless because Jordan will contest the shot, then it will be a miracle.

No doubt. Typically when a guy gets by you that's a wrap for that possession cause your teammates ain't doing jack to help you.

My main problem with the help defense in 2k14 is that AI would frequently come off of shooters, one pass away, to help on a drive when it isn't needed, which results in open 3 after 3. (I dunno who coded this but it is an AWFUL defensive strategy).

The bigs should be the one to step over to stop the drive then the weak side defender comes over and covers the big's man (Just like how Lebron came over and covered Birdman's man)




I just hope the AI is more aware of the situation and is smarter with their defensive rotations.

What are you talking about developer show unfinished products all the time and with the yearly cycle of sports game they have no choice, there will be tweeks up until the final minutes before mass production.
