The sky hook aint that broken tbh, just good timing and be relatively open.
here's some footage from my park games from yesterday

Damn these thread keep coming up and it's no one searches around.

I'd like to close this thread. Serious guys... It's the same faces... This is simple mistiming/direction on the users part here.

I've said this many times as most people here know because of the 3 other threads on this topic. Once you get the defender in the air. You are in control of the whole situation. Just because you get the defender in the air. It shouldn't mean buckets. You have to chose the finish hand and when you finish. Yes some of these should be fouls in real life. But again you can't have it so automatic. But in it's current build. The offensive player controls the situation here. It's a video game. Checks and Balances

I just finish watch your video. Here is a great example of aoviding contact after getting the player in the air.



I seriously hope people can watch the video above. He's doing all the moves people have been complaining about. I'm sure he get blocked blocked once in a while because he made the mistake of going the wrong way.

And this is the perfect example of what I'm talking about



Watch the defender is on his left side. And starts going into theleft skyhook animation and then he pump fakes (lucky the defender wasn't jumping). And then the defender jumpers. Thinking that he will go right up. But now instead of going right up into his chest again. He goes to the right side of the rim. Taking the defender out of the play. And then finishes very nicely.

Yeah sometimes i end up making the wrong choice or **** up the timing. But basically the moves are all solid

I think some of the guys on here are more in tune with how these 2k basketball games work , and not real basketball.

Yea, it's counter-intuitive and unrealistic. No one can refute that.

Some people just think it's balanced. I don't know if it's balanced, either. It might have been worse before.

I am 100% sure they could fix the post, but it would require effort. It needs to work differently than other contests. Needs to be more about angles than fading away from people or drop stepping. Drop step is the only way you can really pin someone or get a body animation, where as in actual post play, you can do a lot to change where someone can contest your shot.

I just don't think we should be here in 2018. With more realistic strength, angles, body contact... the post could be played more than one way. Which is good, right?
