The 1-3 offensive rebounds that you KNOW is going to result in a three-point shot being made. Players making 1-2 dribble moves and are able to make a beeline for the basket. Players sliding out on defense when you do decide to lock someone down. The one thing that bothers me most about this game how some opponents are able to get inside shots and free throw attempts with ease despite me playing disciplined defense, but they're "forcing the issue". However, my opponent is rewarded with pogo jumping and blocking shots when they were clearly was on the way down, or easy steals when my teammates dives to the rim unnecessarily. I swear this game rewards recklessness and stupidity more than it rewards basketball IQ. The game is not scripted, but it's definitely predictable.

Sounds like 2K for the past 5 years, nothing has changed.

It's fun for the boneheads running around like lunatics though.

I got beat by one of these clowns and I sarcastically messaged him saying he had awesome fast breaking, offensive rebounding , contested 3 skills. He lol'd and told me to get better. He knew exactly what I was talking about that the game let him win playing like a nut. I was struggling to make layups at times.

It's really not fun. I rarely play these days.

For the step back hold RT and push the RS down and then continue holding RT and push the LS diagonally toward the off ball hand.

Yeah, it's getting closer and closer to becoming my least played game in my library. In fact, I tend to play NBA 2K20 more than 2K21. Use of the shot stick felt so RIGHT! I'm playing some older versions (NBA 2K16, NBA 2K19) for kicks and giggles; thus far, using the shot stick just felt better, and we wasn't stuck with that stupid change of only pressing down to shoot.

For the record, NBA 2K21 has a good foundation of a game, but there are too many "little things" that's going against the experience of trying to enjoy the game. For me, it's primarily the shot stick, OTF menus, and non-logical animations/outcomes. Although, non-logical animations/outcomes have been around for a while.

Everyone discovered that Ben Simmons can't be stopped due to the poor pick and roll defensive mechanics.
