Hand up, man down

One of the reasons why shooting percentages are so high might be because of contesting a shot having little to no impact on shots. The amount of shots that go in with a hand in the face is becoming annoying. I know players hit shots with hands in their face, but I don't think it happens as much as I've been seeing.
Playing against the Knicks right now, I've had Courtney Lee hit a midrange pull up on the break over myles turner, Joakim Noah hit a baseline jumper over PG, and a Rookie pf that has a confusing name hit a 3 pointer over Al Jefferson.
There were atleast 3 other instances but these stuck out the most to me. There are also times where I feel like I play great defense, only for the CPU to fade away or throw up a shot off the backboard for a swish.
Am I the only one experiencing this? If so, can anyone tell me how to stop it from consistently happening? Playing on superstar, btw

I could be wrong but I don't think so. You have to control the defender contesting the shot for the shot contest to actually mean something for the most part. Also a point guard will always have a terrible time contesting a center's shot.

Sorry man. When I said PG, I was referring to Paul George.

Yo JBL try out my sliders... they fix a bit in conjunction with our roster both of which are still in the works... but a better feel for sure.

Filename: SimWorld (WIP)

There is NOT A FIX that does not require edited sliders/rosters.

Re: Hand up, man down

One of the first changes I make in 2K at this point is to change Auto Shot Contest from Intense-D to Manual. Takes a few games to get used to but I feel (opinion) that it helps with the issue you are seeing. I feel like my contests have gotten better since doing it.
