Speaking of passing we need more errant passes. More turnovers that are not steals are needed.

There is an option.

Its called icon passing.

Press the icon of the guy leading the pack and the ball will go there.
Its alot more accurate then most passes.

Too bad they couldn't tie in the other passing types into Icon Passing. An example could be once Icon passing is up, pressing the button would be a normal pass, double tapping the button could be a lob pass, holding down the button could be a bounce pass.

It would give more control to the icon passing.

Every year, 2K comes up with a way to simultaneously refine and overly complicate its controls.

No offense but it's called options and trying to give more control and creativity to the end user. He stated in all of the changes you can revert back to 2K20's controls if you so desire. Me personally, I love options and appreciate 2K never being satisfied and always giving the effort to improve or refine. It's what makes 2K who they are today.

You can currently do that. If you turn on "Total Control Passing," pressing the icon is a normal pass, double-tapping the icon is a bounce pass, and holding the icon is a lob pass. I throw a ton of bounce passes because they don't seem to get stolen nearly as much as normal passes do. Also, even in real life, there was nothing quite like throwing a perfect bounce pass lol

wait what?!?!?! That is great, if it actually works! Why does noone besides you know about this?!


edit: holy ****, this is actually working! Why does I have to learn that from some random internet guy (no offense to you!) and not from the game itself?!

People sleep on icon passing.

Been preaching it for the longest......
