The worst online game ever?

[trauma]

Is it even debatable?

- Wide open miss after wide open miss with good shooters

- Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol picking PGs on ball

- Having a PG on a PF in the low post and getting that pathetically stupid "contact layup" that misses 90% of the time

- Layups consistently missed simply because of the presence of the player

- Non stop blocks when driving

- Players do everything in their power to make an easy dunk/layup blocked (pulling the ball back with 3 people around)

- Being able to jack up 50 threes (yes, that's an actual number...not exaggerated) and making 25 of them, about 20 of which were contested and about 10 makes being contested while fading away

- LeBron and Wade being able to hit three after three after three

Just to name about 0.05% of the hilariously pathetic things wrong with the online experience. Anything worse? Because this makes Madden's online games look absolutely flawless.

Lol, I agree with most of what u wrote. I hate that when u have an WIDE OPEN lay up attempt all somebody have to do is run at u and it force's some type of double pump animation. Smh, they all reward the steal button pushers this year. TOO many reaches and not too many fouls called. I had Spencer hawes lol rip Darren collison off twice. He just ran up and just swiped the ball SMH

That's what I'm saying. I mean, I wouldn't post this if I was legitimately bad. If I have a wide open mid-range shot with Kevin Durant or Melo or Curry, I should be able to make it most of the time. It's unfortunate because I can do a nice crossover to a wide open 14 footer with Stephen Curry and miss while homie can pop a fading three with Jason Richardson as David Lee sits has a hand right in his face.

The layup BS is ridiculous though. Seeing a guy like Dwight Howard or Kevin Durant get lightly contacted and missing every layup. Or my personal favorite, James Harden completely flying over a helpless Dwight Howard as if he were Pau Gasol on D.

Shouldn't this post just be worst game ever? Not like 3pointers aren't easier to hit than close/mid range jumpers in offline mode.

it makes sense. 20 total makes were contested, 10 of which being contested fade aways.

a good way folks are cheesing now is to dribble in semi circles around the perimeter, they get a little breathing room and jack a three. Nick Young, Jameer Nelson, Jason Richardson, JR Smith, Melo, CP3and Durant are their weapons of choice.

Something is wrong when guys use the Magic (and they do a lot in my experience because of all the 3pt shooters) and they don't use Howard at all. It's because of what you describe- it is very hard to score inside.

Worst ever? I don't know. But pretty frustrating that's for sure.

You are crazy Durant rarely misses and run over people. Just slightly less powered than James. You are right over bigs doing nothing about the drives sometime but if Nate Robison is in the paint, watch out.
