Has 2k fixed help defense/paint defense/pnr defense yet?

If my center is down low, I don't need my PF or SF helping out every time. This isn't jr high lol.

I've never actually played a zone defense consistently. You do this in your MyLeague? It takes away some of the frustration with not getting stops when you should be?

They don't want it to be good. It's sad because you can't help right as a user, but it also does keep you from even more cpu cheese. You can stand in a spot and disrupt the whole cpu offense. If dudes are gonna help you for ONE FREAKING SECOND on the cut, it's over. But no they gotta let your guy just walk in there haha, doesn't matter who they are guarding.

2K tried but sliders will help fix some of it..
Turn help defense and defense awareness up to 100 on CPU and user.

I find that turning up virtually all defensive sliders for CPU to 70 except Defensive Awareness to 60 gives me a reasonably challenging game, while having CPU Offensive Awareness at 90 (I tone it down to 80 during game if they get too hot and it is becoming impossible to play). At 80+ defensive awareness they just never ever leave any of my players open and it’s hard to make a 3 as they are too quick to contest. In general 3-point line defense is good if not too strong in this one compared to 2K21, and paint defense is still better than 2K21 where even at all defensive sliders bumped up to 100 I could easily score 80 points a game by just blowing by defenders.

I agree but it plays more realistic, those bad passes the user makes becomes turnovers. The only thing I don't like is players will react too fast at times.

Raising it to 100 made me play smarter and my turnovers actually went down about 4 a game.
