Four patches later, the CPU still can't defend the pick-and-roll/fade (video inside)

Only way is to manually go into their Coaching Settings

Ugh... I hate doing that. Playing against the CPU feels like such an unfair fight to the advantage of the human player.

Yeah. You'd have the defense on to the popper to deny, or even switch for the on ball screens.

You could download a good set of custom rosters and sliders. Some things are good on default. Some things are terrible on default. At some point, you have to decide if you're going to tweak the game to YOUR personal preference. It can't be on 2K Sports, because everyone has their own perception of what is a "good" basketball.

I was talking about roster/slider changes that can be made to achieve that result.

Its even worse in MyCareer because obviously you only control your MyPlayer. I have tons of video. You Know what I will Post my videos of these horrible defense rotations. How can anyone defend this game is beyond me. NBA 2k13 had way better def rotation than 2k16 its not even freaking close.

Look at Melo




Look at my PG. Decide all of sudden to stop chasing Lillard off screen.






Patch 4 didnt do a goddamn thing to fix these issues. Transitional Defense is still a problem. Loose Ball is still a problem. These problems never exist in NBA 2k13( This was my last NBA 2k I played before 2k16).

Oh Forgot, Thank you RyanFitzmagic for creating this thread. My team is at the bottom of the league in defending 3 point shooters because the wing defenders are over helping leaving three point shooters wide open. Playing against team who have great 3 point shooters is a freaking nightmare in this game. Every freaking time they leaved them open like Melo on the first video I post. To help out when help is not needed.

To be honest I dont want a patch 5 because my fear 2k will break something in this game.
