And as for created players, I think that some of those badges they need to cut out, (specifically myPlayers, not necessarily for real players (I guess)) especially deadeye. All that lucky stuff isn't even necessary, like just get good at the game and don't take dumb shots. That's 2K's problem and that's why this thread even exists: 2K keep allowing dumb s*** like deadeye and contested shots to go in, it needs to stop. -

Re: NBA 2K16: The Contested Shot Conundrum (Part 1)
23% is actually pretty high in to relation to what i would have expected.
I feel that 2k is a bit inconsistent with what it considers a make-able contest vs. an un-makeable. The same shot that i take on a pull up can be a red release off of a step back or a hand off. Its confusing and often frustrating.
Ive used the same data to try to tweak the sliders a bit, but i think the variables of badges make it a bit harder to replicate than a person might imagine....or at least i did.Comment

Really insightful article. What would you think about allowing green releases on contested shots when players are "heating up" or "on fire"? I think this would strike a nice balance between nullifying tough shot makers (like 2K16), and perfect release cheesing (2K15).Comment

I feel like it's fine in play now. I know my team isn't simulation it's default so I'm sure it's gross on there. I get pissed about contested shots goijg in at times but then I just try to tell myself. That **** happens in the NBA or high school or college or in a pickup game. All you can do is contest the next one. Shooting is okay now for the most part for play now at least. Only time I REALLY hated the shooting was patch 4 last year.

Before we knew green releases would always go in now in NBA 2K17 I wouldn't have hated this idea in theory. But now? I probably wouldn't be cool with it.I won't ask for Christmas or birthday gifts if you subscribe to the Operation Sports Newsletter (Not Just Another Roster Update).
