I don't think this is a workable solution. They need to make the AI rotation better when a double does come.

I havent played for a few days, and just did some scrimmaging to re-aquaint myself with controls.

But it feels like the first pass and reception to start transition is much less clunkier.

What rotation? There is nothing to rotate. There will always be one guy open if a double team comes. And it will come as fast as the first play call sometimes.
It's not about that, it's about it being annoying as hell and making no sense at all. No NBA team plays like that.

I know users say there are too many doubles. The reasons why users say this need to be investigated.

I don't see this, but when I do see doubles the problem is the other 3 defenders stick to their defenders and don't seem aware a double has occurred.

Play with the Warriors. As soon as you score 8-10 points you will be doubles consistantly the remainder of the game. It seems hard coded to happen more often with specific players.

You are correct on this dirk. The other defenders do carry on as if there is no double team occurring. AI offball defense is too reactive instead of proactive in a number of instances. Double team and pre rotate situations are just a couple of situations in which all 5 defenders on the court do not seem to be remotely on the same page.

And yes the double team threshold is not high enough. I just dont see a situation in which a team would double someone because they have points in the 1st quarter

Yep. I've got a few videos of me playing with Griffin, a CPU defender comes off Redick to double one pass away. That should happen very rarely but nobody came to Redick until he caught the ball.

The logic needs to be tightened so that defenders are ready to rotate when a double happens.
