    And it's been so for years. I've noticed pass perception, an insane amount of gold badges, and defensive ratings/badges in general are given very generous to the Warriors. They hardly ever make mistakes on the official roster for those very reasons.

    I've used that team maybe five times since Curry became an MVP. I've never had a close game and the defense was insanely good unlike any other team in the game. I'd bet that still holds true today.

      Is the gameplay different on the higher levels??? Suddenly, I'm getting all these odd *** animations.

        I feel like defense gets better at the higher stages. At the beginning levels I could score 20 on the reg with Denandre Jordan. I’d score with late release and heavy contest. At NBA, having ratings despite heavily contest doesn’t work around the basket.

        But that’s just speculation. I know the game is superstar difficulty. Just feels tweaked. I don’t believe in crackpot theories such as rubber banding etc

          I need to add play like a buffoon to my arsenal to take me to next level I think. I'm missing something here with this game.
          emphasize always playing against the makes. every time i play against the bucks, giannis is making contested shots in the paint and the supporting cast is automatic from deep. just used the bucks where giannis gets 3 dunks blocked and my guys cant hit a lick from 3 even if they wide open. all were asking for is consistency. **** all that rigged bs

              I've accepted contested Giannis paint shots it's like that IRL too. But 3s...cmon!

              You pretty much have to double...leaving splash bros Gasol and Lopez open.

              You definitely got lag bro it's not the game per se in your case.

                The worst thing is when you stay in front of your man is driving it in, and all they have to do is pass it to whoever is in the paint since the ai is so ****in stupid. all im asking is for my teammate to stay not allow a pass to their man. Im not asking them to defend a cut, or play help d. im doing my part defending the ball. the ai ends up bailing em out by allowing terrible passes

                  Yeah, I really do wish jump passes (where there is contact) ended in more turnovers. It bothers me I play excellent rim protection defense, and my opponent throws a pass right before the block for uncontested 3.

                      It's hilarious how this thread always starts out optimistic/hopeful when the game is first released. After about a month everyone, including me, whines about the unfair gameplay. Rinse and repeat every year.

                      Let's face it - if they wanted PNO to be sim they could easily go that route. The fact that we always complain about unrealistic gameplay/percentages, which are easily editable through sliders, and nothing changes is the proof that they refuse to cater to the sim crowd enough.

                      The audience doesn't want a complete sim so they do a simcade instead. The most popular mode (by a huge landslide) is even more arcade than the NBA Street series.

                        Why do people announce they are done with the game? like anyone really cares....... Next

                        Does anybody have any decent settings they have tried out and practiced using zone defense?

                          I've been mostly positive about the mode despite some of my complaining regarding the idiots I play against. I really enjoy playing 2K19, and it's actually the game that I play the most out of my digital library. Truthfully, I just wish they would get a better method for the rosters where they can change every single detail that needs to be changed. I feel like 95% of the "problems" with this mode is caused more by the ratings, tendencies, online sliders, and badges than anything else. Call me crazy, I feel like this mode should be more in the "hardcore" style of play. I feel like this mode is played more by "old heads" or "fans" than the extreme casual crowd found in MyPlayer, Park, or JRC.

                          I really do hope they come through with some form of a "hardcore" mode where you have no HUD, no shot meter, no badges, no playart, and longer quarters to force people to use their bench.

                            It’s a good game. I agree the 3 Ball is way too easy but at same time I remember when ppl on Reddit (where I started) would complain about missing open threes all the time.

                            Personally I’d “open shot 3” and “moving shot 3” were actually treated differently, it’d be a better experience. I’ve seen dudes zig zag across the screen with good “open” three pointers but mediocre moving three pointers and still bang them in.

                            2k19 is by far better than 18. The AI is smarter, on ball defense is stronger, if you can get your guys open, it’s more rewarding, etc.

                              The reason why it’s rinse and repeat because of money! 2K is making all these small changes to make the game unplayable so people will be ready to NBA2K20.

                              My only complaint about this game is one thing and one thing only is the network connection. Why, can I have a seamless online connection during a game!

                                I’d love 6 min quarters after we get halfway through PNO tiers. I don’t really care for longer quarters starting out. I can’t see no shot meter ever being a thing. Especially with input lag, a meter is a must.
