ill give it a try

This happens all the time in the NBA. Eventually teams will adjust and stay on their man but acting like someone would never leave their assignment to help protect against a superstar driving the lane is just silly. I do agree that the CPU takes too many threes though. But again, the GIF posted here is something that happens in real life NBA games all the time.

i know what you are talking about, but this is one example out of many. If you take a closer look at the gif, im setting a screen for harden and chandler is right there to back up the guy im screening, there is absolutely no need for the other guy to help

Is this the Otto Porter defense? I didn't want to originally start a thread about this but I bumped that OG's thread up for some help.

Page 49 should help you guys with some tips....it works but I'm lazy and don't want to mess with the settings much.

It's the same as he Otto Porter glitch but in mycareer you can't do anything to prevent it unless the corner guy is your cover. The guy covering him sags to the paint and can't close fast enough after the pass to contest the shot. It's frustrating because a lot of the time, there's not even a really imminent threat of a drive. I had the Bulls hitting Mirotic in the corner 4 possessions in a row. Still love the game but I really wish they'd fix that.

Ah yeah...you have no control for MyCareer and it sucks. This was a bad design choice IMO....nobody camps that far out. I hope an ACE update will help.

This should never ever happen. NBA defenders don't run away from shooters and plant themselves aimlessly in the paint.

exactly, there was no call for that senseless rotation.

So my question is always this. How can a basketball video game accurately simulate bad awareness without us saying the game is BROKEN?

Bad awareness happens MULTIPLE times during real games, so to PURPOSELY replicate that in a video game without you thinking it is a GAME issue vs. it being a defender just being out of position.

Please answer

What should defensive mishaps look like?

We keep saying what it SHOULDN'T look like but nobody ever says what it looks like
