NBA 2K17 Lets You Run the Point

The developers behind the NBA 2K series do more to change the user experience year over year than any other annual sports franchise.

I have always called plays, going back to 2K6 and 2K7. Im used to the clunkieness of 2K's scheme by now. I used to get pissed off that 'button mashers' could keep up in prior games, playing what I felt was unrealistic basketball. As you stated above around the 2K15 game, I have taken my game to another level, and basically if you're just a button masher Im pretty much demolishing those guys. 2K has so many layers of depth, and unlike Madden the more you get into it the better it makes you at the game.

Thanks for reading & replying! I really think the game is starting to hit its stride with the playcalling system. The simplicity with which it can be done can really go a long way to get "average" players to play the "right way".
