My player get shifted unexplainably and opponent gets an easy dunk/layup. 2. My player get a perfect contest and the opponent still makes the layup no problem. Same thing on other side, I'm about to get hall of fame posterizer because no one can stop me by the rim (except when i fake someout int he air and he magically strips me when in the air wtf 2k?). I understand that im not supposed to be ben wallace. But can we we a little realistic and not have these 175 pound guards come in for layups like its practice? its impossible to get a block or even hold your ground.

I agree Pro Am is basically the same gameplay this year for Bigs specifically. Bigs Dunking 20 times a game in Traffic (Why would they get tired?). Standing Dunk Galore. People lead passing right through defenders. Pro Am has been hugely dissapointing. Ultimately the same playstyle of last year will dominate this year.

**** off with your bull**** already. You park guys ruin this game this year I'M DONE. You hear me? Done.

I propose this forum should be broken up into online and offline sections. Why are we not learning from the past.

pick defense as an archetype.

Also no better feeling then getting a guy in the air with a pump fake only to have them fall into a clean "block". Thanks 2k

The ONLY thing they need to fix is how easy it is for offensive players to establish position right under the hoop. Thats the hardest spot to get to in basketball and 2k lets guys just walk in there catch, pump fake and then auto dunk....! They need to let LB/L1 or RB/R1 be like a stone wall skill on D that lasts say 3-6 secs, depending on strength and weight and then has to cool down to do it again. What do ya'll think? Cause right now bigs just get under the hoop with no resistance. This is a legacy issue. Other than that, i love the game.

This is like 80% of why i created the thread in the first place. Damn bigs just run up straight under the rim get a pass and dunk.

Can't stop him no matter what you do.

Atleast in 2k17 you could draw a charge on them but they even took that away.
