Catch and shoot delay

[Find_the_Door]

Why is there a delay when you work for an open shot? I'll drive hard with Crawford then kick it out to Batum (wide open) behind the arc only for him to not respond to my input of shooting the three? It happens on fast break three's as well and is quite annoying as it completely messes up your momentum (cause it delays then it will make you go up completely messing up the shot timing).

I find it odd that this has never been brought up or discussed on the forums as it's a huge issue that albeit doesn't occur regularly but can really hurt you in a timely fashion. Have any of you ever experienced this, I know first hand that I have along with my friends.

There is an odd global delay to all input, I think. You can do this test on your 360. Scroll up and down any menu for a few seconds to get used to the timing. Then press the middle button to bring up the 360 dashboard. Scroll up and down and you week notice that it is instant compared to a slight delay in the 2k menus.

Yes. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it's extremely frustrating. P-Dub, it's not just a general delay, it's an instance where you press shoot off of a catch and your player just stands there for a second or two, then puts up the shot. It seems to go away after a few possessions however.

Yes this is what I speak of, thank you!

I have the same problem about 3-4 times per game, it causes you to completely mess up the release...

Yeah I'm not really sure why no one has ever brought this issue to light (at least to my knowledge). It's a pretty big problem.

I always thought this happened because I pressed the shot button too early, as in, before the ball arrived in the player's hands.

it's not the shot that is delayed...it's the "catch animations" that cause the delay...certain catch animations are way too slow or long and they cause your player to pause and gather the ball before you can control him or shoot. some of them are ok, but some of the catch animations are just too long and need to be shortened.
