    Passing for me.

    When a (human controlled) great passer like Chris Paul or LeBron has an alley-oop situation.....the attempt shouldn't be broken up so often because he's throwing the ball on a line instead floating the ball high and well over the defender.

    Happens ALL the time. Very, very frustrating.

    With good A.I. my player should recognize the defender and put the ball where it needs to be.
    The Lord is my shepard.

      Passing - delayed and the wrong passes
      Speed - terrible, Oden keeping up with fast guards
      unnecessary animations - dribble that slows down the ball handler, slow catch animations.
      unrealistic animations - arms bending, players sliding across court or in the air
      rebounding; player are in position but turn sideways or backwards to jump for a rebound, just jump up.
      player movement; players running into traffic or to the 3 point line, running around looking lost after a screen, run then stand looking at the ball.
      traveling - happens all the time yet the CPU never calls it on itself (4 - 6 steps)

        For me it is the contact while attempting to either run the called play or to disengage on a teammate's shot attempt.

        It has been stated many times, but I often feel like I am a wide-receiver running a play in football instead of an NBA player running a simple pick play on the opposite perimeter. In order to get from one side of the court to the other, I need to either pull cheese movements of my own (purposefully running the defensive guy into his teammate so the animation is broken by the "dynamic physics") or I need to take my own routes to the end position instead of following the actual play.

        Also the animation where you are sucked into a "loose-ball" foul on a teammate's shot infuriates me. I will not be touching a single button or stick and I end up plowing two guys into the floor (something that in real life would be an ejection and flagrant) and the foul is 100% called if the shot misses or not called if the shot hits.

        Of course, if I get pissed enough, it is fun to floor Dwight Howard as a 6' PG or try to get as many opposing players on the floor as possible - my record is 4 against the Nets with Humphries as the last man standing. This animation either needs to be taken out completely, or redone to be much more realistic.

          Movement - I hate when you go for a steal near the sideline then all of a sudden your stuck behind the ref or jump into the stands and can't get back into the play

            I hate the animations at times. I understand wanting the game to be nice, but man...

            It's so annoying to allow me to modify my own shots, but when I am just about to dunk it and the CPU jumps, you force my guy to switch hands and do some under hand shot before he touches down, only to hit the bottom of the rim. And I can understand this if i'm doing the wrong layup in the situation. But when i'm driving from the right, slashing the key to the opposite side and I initiate a left handed layup, stop making me do a ****ing 180. Just make me miss the damn shot if there's contact.

            Take one or the other out. It's not hard to figure out which one to take out.

            Also I hate when you miss a layup or dunk and instead of being able to contest for the layup, you get to stumble 2-3 ft out of bounds before you can even move your player.

            So I guess besides the player movement, I think animations are one of the worst things in the game.

              equal should be up there imo. They are all equally terrible.

                theres nothing this game does 100 percent right. I've had a bug recently that after resuming a saved game the audio Defense chants that I imported continued for the whole game. Didn't matter if it was a T.O or pause or anything. Even after the game ended and I was in menus it kept going

                  AI, the AI in this game cheats so much its ridiculous. They recover way too quickly on D. AI big men can out run you even if your controlling Derrick Rose. They hit too many shots when the shot clock is about to expire. User AI teammates are often dumbed down.

                  Honorable mention is passing, its horrid in this game.
                  It’s easier to do the right thing, than to explain why you didn’t.

                    Passing and defense. Passing is just too random in this game. You rarely feel you have control and the randomness factor.

                    Defense is almost just as bad.

                      Agree, I shouldnt have to press Icons to pass. I hate throwing TOs because the CPU randomly decided that another guy was in the better decision.

                        I never understood why recent nba 2k always had trouble with directional passing. I don't ever remember any basketball game in the early 2000's having the amount of inaccuracy as the last several NBA 2k games have had.

                          As it is right now, I have to look towards the feet of players to see where the feet-icon is located. Because it doesnt matter where you direct the pass, it will pass it to the specified player.
                          But, realistically are you gonna focus on the ground to make sure your pass gos to the intended area. BBALL is a high paced sport. You dont have time to check everything before you make a decisions. You have to go with you r instincts and make a quick decision.

                            What do you think they should do?

                            I hate missing on assists or getting TOs because it is very sensitive. I dont mind the foot icon. I just want it to be consistent.

                              I dont really like the CPU on ball D. You cant really drive. If I have a strong quick player, I want to be able to drive towards the basket. Not, just bounce of the defender or lose the ball. That is how Drose makes a killing doing that. It seems like unless you have a player with elite ball handling and athleticism, you might as well try to get a PNR

                                pick n roll is pretty much useless, cpu always gets around it fast enough and again that goes back to them recovering too quickly. yea cpu on ball D is too good. but even if you manage to get by them they recover in time.
