Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
Can anyone comment on how fast breaks play out? Is the user speed still capped to allow the defenders to catch up and defend? Or can you finally run to top speed and go for the breakaway dunk?Comment

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
This isn’t even best example but I wanted to get quick clip. Cpu bucks at 95 help d coming to help on 2 drives. The 2nd one you see Lopez rotate and Middleton drops to take help the helper and gets the steal because of it.

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
It looks like it plays good, you can get a steal and end up with a lone dunk on the other hand, there has been some fast breaks i've especially on MJ pre release videos on yt.Comment

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
Here’s 1 more quick help d rotations that led to 2 drive and kicks. I’m rusty on sticks but you guys at least can see the help rotating more.

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
Yea it's great but you're also right that some don't like this much committed to help help such as me i like more in the middle playing the 2 to get back for a pass much like zone playing, but yea this makes your team scrumble there and lead to tos, rush offense at times which is great as long as we have the option to lower or higher.Basketball Playbooks

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
How are rosters looking for the Kobe era? This is exactly when I really starting watching and following the league so it will be fun reliving and redefining those years. I expect a lot of missing players, just hoping we don't have situations where some teams only have 2-3 real players surrounded by generics.
But this era is my wheelhouse too and it's the one I have played the most. An added bonus is that a majority of the coaches are real, too. Rick Adelman, Doc Rivers, Don Nelson, Byron Scott, Isiah Thomas, Rick Carlisle, Lenny Wilkens, Rudy T, Pop, Nate McMillan, Maurice Cheeks, Doug Collins, Larry Brown, Karl, Cartwright, Paul Silas, Jerry Sloan, Phil Jackson. 2K put in work. I am already hooked on the Tmac/Grant Hill Magic and I'm scheming to get Dwight Howard somehow. I just had a fun game against GP and the Sonics.

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
I had probably 3-4 nice breakaway dunks off of steals last game with Jordan. I'm going back to the current NBA now to see the differences. My first game Tatum had 2 fast break dunks and I had 1 with Mitchell. No catch up, and they even seemed to slow when I went up for the dunk and they were at the 3 pt line, so not even still running into the lane and jumping like they used to.Twitter - WTF_OS

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
The rosters look good right out the box. I'd say each team has at least 5 or 6 real players. I got smoked by some dude named Moochie Norris on the Rockets. Not Steve Franchise. Not Yao. But Moochie Norris. Lol.

Re: NBA 2K23 Early Impressions
So help d seems fixed. PnR defense is fixed. Fastbreak rubber banding is fixed. Dribblers are explosive instead of artificially slowed down/capped. Brick walls are no longer magnetizing you to the defender. AND the CPU is drawing fouls and getting to the FT line?
Alright one more for you New Zealanders: Do the Speed/Accel with Ball sliders actually work this year?Comment
