Let's not take one clip and pretend that is a good shot on HOF. I have played enough of the post-game and on HOF over the years to know that shot is missing 9 out of 10 times

As a former HOF player. I would try it first then say it doesn't work. Cool... Cool.

I did try it...as soon as you posted it because it looked nice.....it missed....so I tried it again with the same match up displayed in the video...and it missed, so I watch the video again and it looked like he has his settings on real player shooting % So I tried again with real player shooting % and the same match up ...Face up...deep jab step...pump fake...fade away....it missed

So I tried it again with a juiced created player in MyNBA with all HOF badges and got swatted by Richaun Holmes

Tall ball > small ball

That worm badge is a real killer if you have a height or strength advantage

I always make at least one post scorer every year and this is one of the best years for them with all of these people making super short/skinny MyPlayers

Haha makes a big difference when your team is missing like that. But I love it!! Definitely love the checks and balances going on in that clip.

I made a 6’ 7” 250 lb SF with 75 Strength, and it works like a charm. Now I see how Rodman was able to dominate big men on defense and crash the offensive glass. Height means nada if you have the proper skillset.

I think this is the most balanced my player builder that 2K's come up with so far.

Every height from 5'7" to 7'3" is viable but will come with its own set of strengths and weaknesses that can be taken advantage of.

The days of being able to leave multiple ratings at 25 and still get away with it are finally over. Every attribute category in the builder matters enough now that you can't just leave certain less popular ones blank unless you want to have a huge flaw in your playing ability.

And as someone who's always enjoyed playing with taller characters (to more easily make passes over the top of the defense), the buff to bigs' jumpshot speeds and nerf to the interior contest system (hands up D isn't good enough in the paint anymore) plus all of the new finishing badges they've added have finally made inside scoring and having good shot blocking timing relevant skills in the online modes for the first time since 2K19.

From what I've observed during my grind to online rep level 40, the people complaining about pick pocket/interceptor/chasedown artist being overpowered tend to have terrible playing habits or just aren't using the right build/badges/animations.

My passes rarely get picked off because I have 90 accuracy and equip bullet passer/needle threader/special delivery/dimer all at gold.

And I've played alongside plenty of PGs who don't get pick pocketed often because they aren't running headfirst into defenders like a basketball version of Mike Alstott and aren't spamming right stick moves whenever a lockdown's mitts are within reaching range.

But there have been plenty of games where my 99 block rating and hall of fame shot blocking badges have felt powerless because some slasher on the other team has HOF fast twitch/limitless takeoff/rise up/posterizer plus a smartly setup custom dunk package.

The only complaint I have about the online my player portion of the game is how easy it is to repeatedly zig zag back and forth (using only the left joystick) without losing any speed or very much stamina. But that style of play (and all types of screens) can still be defeated by a switch-all defense, which is what most NBA teams run nowadays, anyway.

They keep it like this in December. I might dip my toes in my player.

I'm telling you guys. I've been playing with this stuff. But this is a totally different game. If your patient you can read your defender and kill them

I've been hitting people with this one for the last week and half. They are so confused lol

Yup my only grip so far is the constant zig zag greenlight show.

Everyone is greening 3s left and right lol.

Just remove handle for days and make stamina count and it would solve a lot imo.

Re: I Love The Post Game This Year

The one move i wish they would bring back is the running hook shot out of the post. The last couple years it was limited to Ben Simmons layup package, but i want them to include it as a post move for everyone.

That is the one thing that is missing. The only other person that has it Kareem obviously.

But I'll say this though. How many players actually have a running hook shot in real life? Standing hook yes. But a running. I feel you might find players do it once in a while. But definitely not as much a Kareem or Ben Simmons. So we really need everyone doing the running hook when they don't in real life?

I would agree with that logic if Legends weren't in the game. You're obviously right that no one does that move, but for that matter no one tries to dominate from the post like Shaq either. So should that style of play be eliminated because no one does it anymore? No one does the sky hook anymore either, but thats in the game (kind of. I dont think the animation really matches what Kareem was doing but i appreciate the attempt by 2K).

EDIT: I read your original message again and I may have misinterpreted your statement. If your point was that everyone shouldn't be attempting the move since we basically dont see it in real life anymore, then yes I 100% agree. That would look pretty stupid to see the AI trying to pull that off with players that never do it. But I do think it absolutely should be a move accessible to everyone, the same way regular hooks and fades are.
