Wow, to the Czar- You continue to be the man! That was quite the breakdown, and thanks to you I can tell there is going to be a major difference in the pick and roll game on 2k14. Nice to see, and thanks for doing the video!

Ok sorry, but now on topic....
Enjoyed that vid. This is something I have been looking for in terms of pick and roll focus (offense and defense). Such a big part of NBA basketball (or basketball in general) and its nice to see 2K in the right direction after the over sights in 2K13.
Definitely interested in more of what Czar has to say (as always) and HOPEFULLY more breakdown vids to come as release approaches.....??

Nice Czar! This has drove me crazy for years in 2K not having proper spacing on offense during the pick and roll and also defense not rotating properly, or the help defense becoming too predictable and not catching the offense off guard by switching up the help rotation D. It is improved in 2K14 it seems, but I'm glad you pointed out how that post player is still sometimes clogging the drive lane during the pick and roll and that he needs to get out of the paint during that activity. Like you said, hopefully the devs address this before the game releases.

Bad spacing in pick'n roll 2K13... why you did not say this thing last year when 2K13 came in the market? What you will say next year when 2K15 comes out, bad spacing in 2K14?

I know what you're saying but he Czar isn't the guy to say that to. And btw he wasn't forced to tell you about the center still clogging the paint.
It was a great video Czar. We've been heard. Theses types of improvements really give me faith in the 2K approach when you know that 85% of the players will never notice thoses.

These are freelance pick and roll plays. If you find any videos of me saying 2k13 freelance spacing in pick and roll was PERFECT you might have a point.
If you have listened to my radio show I have complained about 2k13's spacing all year long.
That said isn't it common sense that more flaws will be apparent in a game almost a year after it has been released rather than a month before the new game is released ?
And yes if the spacing in 15 is improved even more than it is now I may make another video illustrating how it has improved, and after 9 months of playing 2k14 I am sure I will be able to find more flaws than I was able to see today.
