Comeback code is a joke

You're better off spotting your opponent a 10 pt. lead to start the game because if you dominate too early, 2k punishes you by giving the other team fake momentum that potentially allows them back in the game if they're a decent enough player. Or are we just supposed to forcefully accept that it's "realistic" and that "basketball is a game of runs"? And to those people saying that we're "laying off the gas".........No, quite the opposite. I play harder once I'm in the lead because I want to destroy my opponent by 20 every game.

hahahahaha I can't anymore... I just can't.....

Yup....

Back in college during the 2K11 years, I was considered the GOAT because no lead was safe with me. I had this saying where "GOATs make adjustments" and that's what I did to comeback every single time. Putting a started on the bench, reaching for the depths of the roster to see if I can find a spark. Changing defenses (back when the 1-3-1 zone was king). Pushing the pace, slowing the offense down.... Any real hooper know that momentum swings are part of the game and they happen. But a real hooper also knows how to be a student of the game. The game isn't cheating you, you're cheating yourself if you think you're supposed to win by 20 or 30 every game. That ain't even fun. The tight games are the most rewarding wins.

Stop complaining and get ya weight up.

Yes! No! Maybe?!

I made i quick test. Played "Play Now" Detroit vs Detroit, 8 min. on Pro and controlled only the C. At the start of the 4th (up by 16) i switched to SS and I changed for both:

-Pass accuracy, ball.sec and ball handling to 0
-body-up sens. to 100
(to test the ai turnovers)

I won the game 72-59, with 7 turnovers (2 by me), 0 steals and 1 FT in the 4th. The cpu with 0 turnovers, 3 steals and 5 FT in the same time. In NBA 2K16 with the pass accuracy to 0 the ai makes a lot more turnovers.

Next game...

There is no cheat code, I'll give the benefit of the doubt and say that the people who create these threads do know basketball and actually watch it as more than just a casual observer but that's probably a stretch, it seems to me that this nonsense has more to do with how and to who these people are losing, 20 point leads in basketball are like 10 point leads in football which is to say that they mean next to nothing given that there is enough time on the clock... so rose had an outlier game making threes, these things happen and people really have to remember that there are 82 games in a year and to stop forgetting that this is a video game after all

There is definitely a comeback formula in my team, I can't speak for other modes

It's crazy... every year the same thread. Every year we post great examples. And still the thread comes alive no matter what we do.

I disagree that there's a comeback code in the game.

Now I am not trying to toot my horn, but I play on HOF with 11 minute quarters. I played against the Rockets in Playnow Saturday night; they were up by 11 going into the fourth quarter. I won by 5, and that was on HOF.

So, if anything, that should've been prevented. I wish people would post games so we could have an intelligent convo instead of the pro, "there's a comeback code in this game and been proof for years." And I know I sound like the typical OS "get better" speech, but there's two sides to every story.

I'd be happy to post a game on HOF if necessary.
