The key to offball movement 24/7 without calling plays

[Gotmadskillzson]

Put isolation under freelance in the tendancy section for players at ZERO. That's right ZERO. Basically this setting causes players to just stand around like a bump on a log when you don't call a play or a play breaks down. And by default 97% of the roster, players have isolation at 99 or in the 90s.

This why when you bring the ball up court and don't call a play players just stand there. And usually they clump together on the right side or left side, you would see 3 of your teammates just standing there until you call a play or if the play you call breaks down, they will just stand there again.

So instead in the freelance section raise set picks, use picks, post, spot up, set screens, use screens. The difference is night and day. You will see your teammates moving all around the screen trying to get open.

By constant movement it also opens up the court too. No longer will the paint be crowded. More importantly, you will now have off ball movement constantly.

Great idea but you'll have to change this for every player on your team and every player on the opposing team to get the best results. That's a very annoying task to do. Unless there is a better way.

2K Insider has some work to do. This really messes up My Player since you can't call plays.

The issue with My Player is a lot deeper than just players standing around. I've seen 8 year olds play better team basketball than the garbage on My Player. I mean honestly, some of the shots your teammates take (or sometimes don't take) are just

Thanks for the heads up! I'll try it out for sure

That´s a great find, sure will test this out

That´s my biggest annoyance with gameplay. Right now if i call a postplay f.e., the only way to get movement (cutters to the basket f.e.) is to call another play on top of the real play ...
