I'm sick and tired of getting shredded on defense in MyPlayer

[DeathstrokeXV]

Why is this so difficult? Why does my player move so much when I flick the stick? I hope I'm not the only one having difficulty.

See the Defensive Help tips Thread. You shouldn't be getting burned off the dribble. Lightly move the stick for your best mobility option. Hold LT/RT for quick shuffle if you're about to get beat. Watch the 2kU tutorial and look at your controls for all defensive options, but I recommend not using the Right Stick for On Ball Defense.


Guard the shooting hand of your opponent when you jump to contest shots.

Contested shot attempts from the CPU going in are a major problem, as is teammate defense, but you shouldn't be getting burned off the dribble. That you can definitely stop.

I'm not having too many issues staying with my man offline. Online I barely feather the stick and my guy goes sliding way out of position. Very frustrating.
