tired of getting to the basket

[jlaz]

anyone else feel the same way? i swear, i get played tight by the ai almost all of the time and it gives me no choice but to drive. and as easy as it is this year, i get a countless number or dunks, layups and and-1's - it's ridiculous. this is on superstar! the ai just continuously smothers me on-ball without adjustment. I'd like to have a chance at a jumpshot here and there.

No. I only get the basket easy with players who do in real life and even then the help defense responds to try to defend.

You don't HAVE TO TURBO your way to the hoop "every time" it's up to you whether you want to play it sim, or arcade.

Getting stuck in canned animations in all 2K previous years was badly unrealistic, I would rather take what they offer with 2K18 at least you have a choice now.

Plays are for scrubs who haven't mastered the tripple spin to the hoop.

I just noticed you play on SS. I only play on HOF so I guess maybe that's why I'm not having the same issue

Go back to 2k17 and get locked up on the perimeter by Bogut and then tell me you are tired of getting past defenders

Yeah seriously....after 2k17 I would think this would be the last thing to complain about.

haha exactly, thats my biggest gripe with these games online, i can pass around and play realistically for a good shot, next possession my opponent can come down and not pass once , use less time, play like a mad man, and still score or get to the line, there has to be some punishment more often for not having basketball iq.

Have you tried adjusting defensive sliders like on ball defense, defense awareness, help defense strength?

This is definitely a major AI issue with the gameplay in all of the modes that I've played so far (MyCareer, Play Now, MyTeam).

Even if you don't take a single jump shot the entire game, and drop 100 points driving past the AI's "smother" defense for wide open dunks at an undefended rim, the CPU still won't change their on-ball defense setting to something that's less aggressive. They'll just keep on smothering you at the three-point line, regardless of how many times that tactic fails them.
