Interaction between the ball & the Rim

[HighCmpPct]

Sitting here watching the OKC/GS game on NBA Network, and watching Steph Curry has me thinking about the way the ball interacts with the rim on 2K13.

It seems that the ball always hits the rim on 2K13 hard with mostly large bounces off of it (besides FT att). Just watching Curry get inside and using his touch with softer shots and this allows the ball to kinda gently bounce AROUND the rim not really up off of it and go in. I think the only time I've seen this kind of interaction on 2K13 is like I said some rare FTs.

Now I'm not saying that the ball doesn't bounce of the rim and go in sometimes, but it's fairly much luck and the bounces are still very hard, and they aren't going in because its a softer shot. Just something I got to thinking about during the game, what do all of you think?

Re: Interaction between the ball & the Rim

I think the ball physics when it comes to rebounds are pretty good.

I think the reason you always see those big rebounds is because everyone who plays the game is always jackin' up shots! So you get the long rebounds.

but on floaters and soft shots in the paint , I've seen plenty of shots that react (pretty much) the way you describe, regarding Curry's shot.

Now if you're talking about offline...Idk. I think the variety of outcomes is pretty good
