I have no idea why they got rid of that driving animation, I also think strength should play a part in the driving animation. A guy like Lebron crossovers are slow, for the most part. The way he gets past his defender is because he is stronger than him. Of course you can counter that by trying to shade him and steering him into traps. Guys like d.rose are so fast that you can't really stay in front us. So by "riding" him takes away some of his quickness. I just really want to see strength and quickness play a part in isomotion and on ball d.

1. Attempting to cut off a ballhandler in one direction (i.e., bumping him on an attempted drive) is dangerous because he can easily change direction, and now he has an angle on you and you're out of position, and
2. It's not worth it to attempt to body up a ballhandler and possibly be called for a foul
Even the best defenders usually don't try to stay perfectly in front of a ballhandler-- that's how you get crossed. They just try to make the ballhandler take the angle that the defender wants them to take.
EDIT
Here's a great example:
Tim Duncan is perfectly squared up with CP3 when Paul gets past the first defender. Duncan may be old, but he's still a professional athlete and has a distinct size advantage on Paul. If Duncan wanted to, I bet you he could have made an attempt to slide his feet and stay in front of Paul. Instead, he turns his hips and simply allows Paul to take an angle that still allows Duncan to contest.
Obviously, as you can see, using this defensive strategy properly doesn't always result in success, but it's still there and it's what NBA players do. They don't try to bully players on the perimeter, even when there's an opportunity to do so.Last edited by RyanFitzmagic; 06-07-2012, 05:39 PM.Comment

LeBron's strength isn't really a factor on the perimeter. He gets past people for two reasons (which apply to everyone):
1. Attempting to cut off a ballhandler in one direction (i.e., bumping him on an attempted drive) is dangerous because he can easily change direction, and now he has an angle on you and you're out of position, and
2. It's not worth it to attempt to body up a ballhandler and possibly be called for a foul

LeBron isn't bulldozing people at the three-point line-- that's my point. Once he gets close to/in the paint, then his strength becomes a factor. But he's definitely not trucking people to get to the basket from 25 feet away.Comment

Look at how lebron uses his strength, quickness and length the affect his opponents shots. <iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/pBcZbKvVknI" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="420"></iframe>
My point is I'm not saying he is bulldozing, "riding" riding is not the same as bodying the ball handler this thread has already been through the whole argument. So this is just an example that I hope one day 2k can replicate. Again I what I'm saying is not the same-thing you are saying.Last edited by jersez; 06-07-2012, 05:49 PM.ARE YOU LOOKING FOR YOUTUBE CHANNELS DEDICATED TO THE SIM COMMUNITY CLICK THE LINKS BELOW, AND SUBSCRIBE FOR ALL SIM CONTENT.

You said that LeBron uses his strength to get to the basket as a ballhandler...Comment

And I also said strength should play a part in getting to the rim. So that's why I used that video.ARE YOU LOOKING FOR YOUTUBE CHANNELS DEDICATED TO THE SIM COMMUNITY CLICK THE LINKS BELOW, AND SUBSCRIBE FOR ALL SIM CONTENT.

Re: NBA 2K13 Gameplay Video Featuring Spurs vs. Thunder & All Star Weekend - 6/4 10PM
But that's also not true to an extent...
Watch this:
Notice how Blake Griffin puts his body on Monta Ellis, but GRIFFIN is the one who ends up going backwards. It's basic physics. The momentum is with the ballhandler-- he's moving forward, and the defender is either retreating or moving sideways. Thus, the ballhandler (Ellis) exerts greater force, allowing him to move someone much bigger and stronger than he is (Griffin).Comment

Blake Griffin rode monta ellis. Notice how he stopped Monta and made him pick up his dribble, because of his strength. I said it should play a part not that every stronger player can defend a quicker or light player. Because that's not true. Tony parker can push LEbron back in 2k, that should never happen. The reason why Monta was able to push Blake back was because he was LOWER than him.ARE YOU LOOKING FOR YOUTUBE CHANNELS DEDICATED TO THE SIM COMMUNITY CLICK THE LINKS BELOW, AND SUBSCRIBE FOR ALL SIM CONTENT.

It should be very difficult to do a scoop layup from the free throw line. I've seen the AI do up and unders from 15 feet out. Most of the time it should be a pump fake and jump shot from that area.Comment

Re: NBA 2K13 Gameplay Video Featuring Spurs vs. Thunder & All Star Weekend - 6/4 10PM
But at the end of the day, the strength difference between Ellis/Griffin is roughly the same as Parker/LeBron. If that exact situation that I just showed happened with Parker and LeBron, and LeBron was the defender and got moved back like that, I wouldn't mind.
But at the same time, I've definitely seen ballhandlers stopped dead in their tracks by a sliding defender, so it should go both ways.

I don't get what you're saying. Obviously, the physics of a clash between two players isn't solely based on their individual speed/strength, as you saw with Ellis/Griffin.Comment

Agreed, you should get called for it if you're, say, under the half circle and there is a lot of contact. I don't know about 50/50, though. The up and under ability of the player should have something to do with the percentage of foul calls he gets. They tend to call it more for guys who know how to do it.Comment
