Things in 2k10 that just make you want to throw the controller

[Epiffani]

I don't know if it's the fact that I haven't played this game in months, haven't downloaded the 2nd patch, or the fact that I've been playing the other game; maybe a combination of all three, but the interior A.I defense is bad. Not only is it easy to score in the paint, but I make it a point to NEVER double team any of the players on the opposing team, and I also have help defense at 0.

What happens when I get posted up? A CPU teammate comes to "help out", leaving his man open for an easy three despite not wanting help. Does anyone know if the 2nd patch help in the area of interior defense, and your CPU teammates actually staying with their assignments. The default FG% is too high also. I'm going to need some sliders for superstar difficulty for when I play again. Don't know how I lasted on default for so long tbh.

This is so annoying.

And also, defense needs to be fixed or I'm just bad at it. None of my players can stop scoring, they just kinda stand there.

This is the worst, automatic double-teams.

The things that piss me off the most are:

The defensive settings not being followed... if I say never double team then why the **** are you double teaming Eddy Curry in the post and leaving wide open 3-point shooters? My *** ends up getting torched.

The CPU will just turn it on and get every single call and there is nothing you can do about it. You sniff them and they are shooting two free-throws.

Defensive rotations... they are horrendous. Not only do my players not follow my specific instructions not to double team, but when do anyway they never rotate back or rotate to someone else who is already being guarded. Leaving sharpshooters wide open.

Turn up Help Defense Strength and play off-ball when that situation occurs

I hate when I break down my man in a iso, drive, feed it to a bigman only to get stuck in a stupid slow-careful dribble animation, giving the defense just enough time to recover and redirect my supposed easy layup back to my center's face.
