What type of players are in favoured in 2k? (Eg. Tall players)

I will try to explain what I am asking, but the way 2k is built is different than real basketball game in certain aspects. For example, taller players have always been in favoured in 2k every single year where in reality, tall players are not in as much favoured as they are in reality. So what other type of players in in favoured in this year’s game in you guys’ opinions?

First thing other than that, that comes to mind are dunkers with a 3pt shot. JR Swish was the #1 candidate for years in 2K due to his ability to chuck it from anywhere and dunk all over you like Lebron. Now that he has declined athletically IRL, he's a lot more bearable since he is mostly a 3pt shooter now.

Btw this is coming from someone who played with him since his Denver days religiously.

Jr Smith, Gerald Green, Andre Iguodala

These guys were basically superstars back in the old days.

I was actually asking for players in THIS year's game but it is interesting to see those names you guys mentioned from previous 2k...for me, back in the old old days like 2k3,4,5,6, using my one and only hero Allen Iverson was amazingly fun I can drop like 30-40 points like he does in reality in 2k, but using him in 2k16 I will get my *** blocked almost every shot...unless having him run off the screen but if I do ISO with AI I probably can't even buy more than 3 baskets in a game...

Yeah they need to give those guards that don't dunk a lot some elite layup moves. Guys like AI or even IT4 or Lowry need animations where they neutralize the shot blocker.

Coming from someone who usually plays shorter guards, that's a slippery slope my friend.

I don't necessarily think its a bad idea, but "neutralizing" the shot blocker already happens quite a bit. Its not like they have a very high success rate, but currently there are several animations that big men get stuck in when little dudes drive the paint.

I honestly just feel like physics need to be implemented, period.
