It's a conflict because this environment can in no way encourage realistic shooting percentages. I'm content with accepting this reality as long as they don't try and advertise it otherwise falsely... Sent from my SM-T330NU using Tapatalk

bruh you just can't play defense

(I'm kidding, but these are the same people who will come out and bitch when this patch nerfs their dumb exploits)

They double at good times (although yeah its over done). They put their best defenders on your best scorers regardless of position.

Are you being sarcastic?

Literally everything you just listed is the exact opposite of how it happens for me and many other players speaking about this in various threads.

2k support told me this morning (1am is the email timestamp) that the patch hasn't been released yet.

But we know how helpful they are.

Dirk seems to have a much better copy than the rest of us - he's made that perfectly clear from day one. His copy didn't come with the ball handlers randomly walking out of bounds glitch, either.

All sarcasm aside, most of us aren't here trolling 2k - unlike Dirk's version of the game, a lot of us are having serious issues.

I'm happy for Dirk - he doesn't have to witness the worst transition defense in the history of basketball games, nor does he have to witness Russell Westbrook going 1v1 against an invisible wall, where he finally claims victory, as he walks out of bounds with no one even near him. I also envy those of you who don't have to witness every center in the game finding his way under the basket, where the nearest defender is deciding whether or not to bother defending it (They always choose not to.)

I won't even mention how my copy came without editable POEs (without having to enter the game,) and every team racing down the court jacking up 3s, like they're the Golden State Warriors. Nah, I won't mention that.

I' not being sarcastic.

I'm only speaking for my experience, which has been a very positive one. Many other posters have reported a great experience of sim basketball, but often we are busy playing the game and not posting on OS a lot.

Ive seen the out of bounds glitch, but might see it once every 5 games.

I've seen the big guys running down the floor unguarded glitch, but saw it maybe once every 3 games.

In terms of pace, Ive seen slow teams play slow and fast teams play fast. I've posted screenshots of holding Memphis and Chicago to low 70 FGAs.

But positive posts at this time of year run counter to the narrative. I understand that people with negative opinions post a lot more and are more likely to use extreme language (e.g. "This game is broken", "Devs know nothing about basketball", "This is NBA Jam").

And as I try to say, I play MyLeague exclusively with my edited rosters and sliders.

I'll give you $60 for your copy of the game.

Just beat the cpu (horrible game) because they ran out of bounds 2 of their last 3 possessions. I see this running out of bounds at least 2 or 3 times a game. Getting forced out, or crappy crowded situations, I really don't mind and in fact I like it as it adds to realism, but when the cpu just runs out for no reason, I find it a bit hard to take. Especially by the 3rd time, or when the game is on the line.

I can't decide what I want more - that patch to drop right meow or the Cubs to win this game.
