Contact, a bad angle, poor touch, too much momentum, etc. can all cause a layup to miss, and many layups and close shots are missed in the NBA. It seems like 2K finally got this right and the misses at the rim in these vids do not look arbitrary or cheap. This, along with a paint that is harder to penetrate, defensive rotations that look sensible and organic contact animations might finally provide us a well balanced game with NBA-like percentages without tons of slider adjustments. These are the elements that nudge the game closer to actual basketball.

Not sure what you mean by "poor touch" I didn't know you could have touch or control release timing on lay ups. They still look to be pre-determined but that's a sick idea if they could do it.

The rim sound effect sound significantly better

Pretty sure he's stating why players miss layups and inside shots in real life not the game, friend. His point is still valid and I'm hoping that 2K sticks with the inside game the way it is. Don't patch this aspect of the game, guys! Let people adjust this year and don't give in to their whining/complaining like in past titles.

Side - note: Damn it, I hate that certain players (Glen Davis, Matt Barnes, DeAndre Jordan and Jamal Crawford)(I presume) have again chosen not to be face scanned for NBA 2K. Especially when DeAndre (apparently) declines but turns around and has the other company scan him for their title. Hopefully if 2K can't get these guys, and whoever else is missing, for 2K16 then the art team can just re do the faces. Won't look even 75% lifelike next to the scanned faces, but it'll be a step up from these faces that are obviously ported over from last gen NBA 2K.

Good point. There is a balance between going up strong and and going up stupid.

I guess I have to wait until 2k16 for fatigue to show on D-pad subs

I just hope to god the player movements aren't as clunky as 2k14 (next gen version, last gen was fine). Online was almost impossible to play because of it, particularly on defense.. players would slide all over the place. Being on offense wasn't much better, the ball handling was horrible and felt super slow.

The only thing that I don't really like so far is that in some replays the camera angle doesn't look too realistic. It's like the camera man is on the court or running on the sideline.

Huh? Have you ever seen Kwame brown play basketball. Do you watch ball. Yes there are pro basketball players in the nba with poor touch around the basket. And layups in a crowded paint are missed all the time
