If you start in an earlier era, will real life coaches such as Erik Spoelstra eventually show up?

I bought the 150 dollar edition of nba 2k23 and now league pass is not working, it's asking me to purchase again when I should have league pass for a whole season. What should I do

Question for experts:

Is it possible to play this game precisely & accurately without icon passing?

Trying to play with “gameplay indicators” turned off and it’s awesome, I want to stick with it, but I just feel like I *have* to use icon passing at times or the offense stalls bad from all the passes going to unintended places.

Maybe someone can recommend some killer controller passing settings? Idk. Thanks for any help.

Re: NBA 2k23 Questions Thread

I am enjoying the game very much and for a while it was perfect on HOF with slightly upped shooting for Player. However it is becoming too easy now, especially on defence.

If I increase CPU shooting from 56 to 65 across the board and give it 100 Offensive Awareness it should technically be quite a bit more difficult, right? Or will 100 awareness mess up their attacking patterns?

I do not want to go too deep on sliders this year as it feels the game is really good, but I need it to be more challenging for MyNBA and not end up running away with every game unless I deliberately let CPU go up by 10-15 to give myself a challenge.

I think you can still use icon passing with gameplay indicators turned off because the icons are locked to positions. Can still lead to mistakes when you have guys that play multiple positions, but that happens to me even with the icons visible.

When time is of the essence right stick passing seems to work well enough

Is it me, or is it impossible to do the signature sizeups in-game the way they're shown on the player edit screen?

Am I missing something or is there no way to do anything that smooth during gameplay?******** src="moz-extension://cea915c9-7fb4-4c5f-aeeb-ba7e127a8370/js/app.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Is there any way to get the sim shooting percentages down to a more realistic number? Jordan, drexler and several others are consistently shooting between 57-62% for entire seasons. It's frustrating because everything else seems alright

You probably could by adjusting the simulation sliders but I don't think it would be worth it because of the time it would take and the likely domino effect of messing up other sim stats

When you get your shoe endorsement do you get any free shoes?

Re: NBA 2k23 Questions Thread

Why is every CPU-generated draft prospect from Australia called Boomer, Sid, Donny or Freddy? Can't they just be given normal western names?

EDIT - and Alec and Konrad

Re: NBA 2k23 Questions Thread

What do those frequent return to main menu updates do?

Is it just new shoes or myteam rewards or could it make gameplay changes?

I played two myEra games after the new season kicked off and the gameplay was very different

Re: NBA 2k23 Questions Thread

Like other threads I've posted in today, I'm getting a PS5.

Should I get 2K23? It's more than half off right now.

If I get 2K23, I won't get2K24. Getting 2K22 only saves like $20 right now.

Especially at that price I'd say get it, I've really enjoyed it...to me it's a great game.

My first thought would be to get it, but I expect 2k24 to be better. One bird in the hand vs two in the bush kind of deals.

The eras is the best thing to happen to offline franchise for any game in quite a while, but it is the first year. I would expect some key improvements next year that may very well make 2k24 a can't miss
