Takeover already seems broken



Look how far away Horford is without anyone in sight. Mike Wang tweeted that athletic finishers have the ability to "clear players out of the paint." This seems to be whats going on in this pic, assuming Giannis is an "atheltic finisher" (you can see the new takeover symbol activated) Notice how Horford is moving away and clearing the paint for Giannis without anyone around him? The real Horford would stay at the elbow area in case he needed to help defend Giannis while still able to step up and defend his matchup who hasnt even crossed halfcourt yet. I can only imagine what kind of insane manuevers the other kinds of players get. I know this is just an assumption but it makes sense and I'm actually disappointed because it seems fairly game breaking.

Could be wrong but I thought he meant using elbows to clear space

Re: Takeover already seems broken

I hope thats not a Takeover effect, but it had me thinking. Why would that be an affect when it has no affect in any multiplayer mode? I mean, Giannis wouldnt be able to do that if Horford was human-controlled, so why would they program the AI to do that?

I think thats just the broken transition/after basket defence 2k is known for.

In 2k18 Pf/C will always run and stand in the most idiotic places untill their man comes up the court and stands at the 3 point line for 3 seconds or crosses the line.

Re: Takeover already seems broken

This has nothing to do with Takeover.

Let's not start with the "broken" stuff before we even have our hands on the game, please.

Gotcha. The "clearing" out he was referring to was creating space after a rebound...getting "elbow room".....

It was tweeted and im paraphrasing, that an athletic finisher at PF (assuming Giannis) is able to "clear out the paint" because they lack the ability to dribble like other players. Idk what that means but it sounds like theyre artificially moving defenders out of the paint to make it more open for the guy attacking the rim using takeover. Maybe im overthinking it idk.
