Layup Strips Are Better Now (Is That a Good Thing)?

[JedAustin]

Am I the only one that felt like ripping the ball in the paint was already far too easy?

[Rockie_Fresh88]

Yeah I did too honestly .but I'm sure they meant in a non abusive way

Sounded to me like they made it easier to rip people attacking the basket. Which is already one of the most annoying things about the game. Especially since its almost always the defenses ball afterwards. I imagine this will also make you more vulnerable after an offensive rebound as well which would be pretty bad

Im also worrried about that, to me, there should be more fouls on these steal attempts in general

As a 6' PG and my only way to defend in the paint, leave it the way it is 2K lol.

But honestly, I didn't think it was too bad in 2K15. Maybe in Park Mode since it wasn't a penalty for it, just would make the offense inbound the ball again which was better than giving up a easy layup or dunk. But in regular games, I felt like it was called a foul a lot of times as well. Haven't had a huge issue with this maybe since 2K8? Where it happened ALL the time w/ no foul call.

Even my Center was able to average 2 steals on HOF by stripping guys in the post... so yeah... it kinda already was fairly bad.

I hope its a good counter to the newly implemented standing dunks...

All I can envision is more asnimations where a defender teleports from 5-6 feet out of the play and strips the ballhandler. The ones that come from behind are especially bad.
