Sorry Mike, but this is not realistic...

In real life some players have a wide open shots for all game and not made even 70% of this.

For default sliders in HOF now, wide open = + 90% made! This is not cool.

I'll have to get some more games in. I'll tell you one thing, I had my 5th annual 2k tourney this weekend and the HOF user vs. user matches were great! Probably the best one yet.

I'm glad you point out superstar/Sim!!

I'd like to share my opinion on certain issues on this level and above that needs to be pointed out. and to see what mode are we really playing?

#1 The cpu doesn't understand there's defense in these games.
#2 The cpu doesn't understand they are not allowed to dribble through the defender and still maintain handling the babasketball.
#3 The cpu doesn't understand they are not allowed to score under the basket easily when surrounded by defenders.
#4 The cpu doesn't understand they are not allowed to hit every open and contested shots at a high %
#5 The cpu doesn't understand they are not allowed to make a player at (67) rating with a (70) standing 3pt steph curry.
#6 The cpu doesn't understand they are not allowed to see where your passing the basketball and then side step and quickly morph to steal are deflect the basketball.

My point are no matter how you play this, inputs settings sag off double teams, these dam!! AI will ignore every settings and do anything to win. and that's where the game starts to play ugly and gets unrealistic.

I don't mess with sliders because if you have to dum down the cpu to have a advantage i might as well lower the levels.

The last patch is great. I play hof sim online 12 min quarters and everything is very realistic to me. Shooting was horrible before the patch with the shot glitches. Now you have to play good defense. Its up to beds to give out realistic ratings. But an 80 rated shooter should hit open shots consistently.

I have seen people (post patch) score 70 pts in a 12 min hof sim online game. I have seen people score 80 or 90. I have also seen people go for 120. These things all happen irl. Its on you to play defense, just like real life. There is a reason why people shoot a lower percentage vs. Golden state then they do vs. The sac kings.

If you play defense and contest shots then scores will be realistic. If you giving up wide open shots to good shooters then unrealistic defense leads to unrealistic offense.

Great job 2k hands down the best sports game ever.

this only makes sense when you are actually going against another human.

when youre playing the CPU and shooting 60% against them, how can you "re-evaluate" the defense that the CPU is playing against you?

This. I can literally make 8/10 or 9/10 of every jumpshot right now on superstar sim.

yep. people dont understand the percentage of open jump shots that NBA players actually make. they dont go in 80% of the time.

also, on 2k, its a lot easier to get an open look then it is in the NBA. if i pass the ball around long enough and run plays, set screens etc, i can get an open shot the majority of the time on 2k. and if im taking mostly open shots, and making them at an insanely high clip, then the game becomes unrealistic.
