Re: there any point shooting with stick?

Has anyone noticed when you shoot from a cold spot on the floor the release is WAY faster? Or am I making this up in my head lol? The release feels super fast from cold spots because the shot meter is much shorter/smaller from cold spots. I get a very late shot from cold spots most of the time and green from hot spots with the same timing shot, frustrating.

Prolly not and that's fine but they could do this... Make a "normal" or "skilled" menu choice when selecting PRO Am or Play now online. Normal would allow for button press during jumpshots and free throws while Skilled would make it where you could only use shot stick to shoot and x or square was changed to a new pass button like lob. This way if you wanted to play against people online who use only the stick for shooting (skill based) than you could play against only those types of people by choosing Skilled. That way you know if someone starts raining threes on you its not just cuz they went to youtube to find the rigged green release jumpshots...

It's still RS away from basket but you have to hold sprint at the same time.

Re: there any point shooting with stick?

Ive used the stick since it was first available

Don't like it as much so far in 2k17.

I shoot sometimes off the move, it was muscle memory for me to pull the stick opposite from the basket when shooting on the move off a curl etc

Now it often leads to a mis-aimed shot.

I believe you can tap square on PS4 or X on Xbox to do a hop gather. While your player is in a hop gather animation hold the shot button to fill the shot meter for a step back jumper. Make sure your left stick isn't pointed at the rim or you'll do a hop step lay-up.
