      Finally gotten the copy. Am not impressed with the gameplay at all.

      The players move like they are on the skating ring.
      On one occassion I cut the ball handler (cpu) off by tapping the left stick. With just one tap, both players “sucked” to each other and went from mid court to the sideline. Wow

      Was running the 00-01 Lakers Triangle, assigned the post up low plays to both Kobe and Shaq and the plays wont show up in the menu. An obvious glitch or bug but didnt bother much.

      Pivot move in the post = travel.

      Will play more to get the feel of the game and learn the game better.

        Despite calling timeouts and switching coverages etc, when the cpu decides to start hitting 3's they seem to get a speed boost, pass accuracy boost, and a shooting accuracy boost. Your cpu teammates forget how to defend and leave players wide open or get stonewalled on screens.

        On the rebounding end, during cpu catch up mode, even when you make the adjustment to crash the defensive boards it doesn't matter. Played the weak rebounding Celtics and Al Horford gets 6 offensive rebounds in the first 4 minutes of the 3rd qtr against a good rebounding OKC with Adams boxing out. Horford averages 6.8 rebounds a game. But in catch up mode he can get six offensive rebounds in 4 minutes. The cpu decided it was going quickly erase my 12 point halftime lead.

        Thanks for putting a name on it "cpu catch up mode"... It's so obvious when it's turned on this year... you just can't do **** at both ends of the court and wait until it's over...

Every year I feel 2k is masking a broken game with more & more issues. They make little tweaks here & there to make the game seem a tad bit better, but it's not where it's destined to be. The movement is a lot better than before but it doesn't mean that it is great. It never was, atleast for a long time it hasn't. There is still a feel of restriction & forced movements that defies the game of basketball. I still don't feel FREE when I'm moving. When driving to the basket, I feel like I'm stuck in one direction. There's alterations in step & direction in real basketball. I should be able to run in circles repeatedly dribbling a basketball, why can't I do it in 2k? My player's back is turned away from the basket/defender in many instances and it's frustrating. The game isn't "animation-free" as promised either. I hope others can relate because I'd hope no one would settle for less in anything that requires money to come out your pockets. Please fix this game inside & out. Hoping for the best.
            This is one of the funniest things I have seen on here. Out side of lack of none shooting fouls and lack of charges this game plays almost a perfect game.

              Lol I have to agree with you...I heard a dev say one time, "if we gave true-to-life footplanting we would have more complaints than ever about movement" and I get what he was saying. If every single movement in the game was heel-to-toe every single time a player moved it would be super slow and sluggish. I don't think people know what they are asking for...if they implement true to life heel to toe movement I don't think people realize how long it'll take to get from point A to B...let alone walk in a full circle lol.

                Perfect? I just saw the CPU Pacers for three plays in a row, have Domantas Sabonis as the PnR ballhandler with Corey Joseph as the pick man. Are you serious? I can guarantee you that will happen a grand total of ZERO times this entire season.

                I should have to go in and manually erase Sabonis as a PnR ballhander on his plays section? That's ridiculous. The CPU offense has gone backwards this year and if anyone can't see that they are blind.

                  I have never seen anything like that in my gameplay but If I ever do I'll be sure to capture some video footage.

                    Everyone here that loves this game to death is just happy you can drive whenever you want and finish or get a foul, and you can hit off balance jump shots. The game plays nothing like real basketball, and players on the court still dont react like humans do on a basketball court, still just all feels robotic and scripted.

                      please explain why is this nothing like real basketball??? that 2 thing you just mention is what usually happens in real basketball game. plus you miss 50% of that drive whenever there is a opponent in the basket. so its either you made that driving into the basket, missed it or get fouled. is there any other result we should know to make it really more like a real basketball?? are your impression base on the whole mode or just online??? PEACE

                        Lol, so your upset that not everyone agrees with your assessment, so you decide to generalize everyone that has a different opinion...

                        All I'm going to say is that is not how I play, nor have I ever played that way. I play real ball, with real adjustments to my defense and offensive schemes on a high level. SMH man

                          Yeah I wish 2k would separate us from online gamers. Their complaints mixed with offline complaints has ruined this game since 2008. Every year 2k puts out a game, the game plays so smooth the first day...but then 2k has to fix complaints from these online cheesers and players.

                          But I found a way to fix this problem so far this year. I just hope 2k doesent make a huge patch where were ordered to download a patch in order to play this game. I'm ready for any BS 2k tries this year

                            agree that the driving to the basket is easier than past years, especially along the baseline. But other than that the game plays a great game of basketball.
                            the game is unforgiving so much so, that i had to put the game on rookie.

                              I love that you can't get lazy, you start taking bad shots and getting turn overs the CPU will destroy you, the game is just fun, passing is soo much better this year with touch sensitivity which makes passing out after a drive a thing of beauty.

                                I really like the game so far my only issue is I feel there are too many wide open layups being missed it's easier for me to get a 3 than to make a layup.
