I did say online you're right. I was actually referring to Moreso pro am .

I was just wondering how you guys counter this. I don't post up much now if I do I shoot instantly lol make or miss. I try to kick out but usually I'm already in the" I dropped the ball "animation

As a guy who always creates a big this is frustrating. Havent been able to play any Pro-Am as of now and was hoping it was just a MyPark issue. Has a dev. or anyone from the 2k team acknowledged this issue yet? I really dont want to spend valuable VC on Playmaking for my defensive center.

I play center and this is the most frustrating part of the game. I have maxed out inside scoring but never post up because whenever I do post up Its almost a guaranteed turnover. I also hate grabbing rebounds only to have 3 people tapping the steal button on me every time before the 2k camera even turns around.

So i have maxed out a power forward. I do a lot of posting up online games in pro am and team up. the trick for me is to have a pg that knows how to clear out the floor for you. Call the post up play. Move the other players out of the way before the entry pass. Doubles will still come. What i do to counter that if i see a double coming when the dump down in the post i do not dribble and i release the left trigger to come out of the post animation and pass out to the perimeter where the double comes from. Wide open three.... Make them pay for doubling and reaching. I feel like posting up is as good as its ever been in 2k16. People just don't know how to do it.

I made a video of this guy stealing the big away from my bigs 3 times in a row. I did start passing it as soon as they started to come. But I guess I get a little pissed watching someone just press the steal button once and take the ball away from my big who isn't dribbling. But I'll post it tomorrow.

This is an issue we're addressing as we speak. One thing you can do for the time being, flick RS towards the defender if you're holding the ball. You'll do one of two moves. You'll either lean back (which brings the ball up a bit) or you'll do the "hold ball high" animation which was put in to help you avoid getting the ball stolen. It is way too loose at the moment either way and we're taking care of it here.

It's good you guys are addressing this but I'll use that tip until then

But what if you're dribbling in the post, that wouldnt help, players should be penalized with foul calls for spamming the steal button in the post, it's frustrating and discourages a truly sim experience, glad you guys are looking into it.
