I know how you feel. Going from 2k12 using the shot stick to 2k13 using button press shooting didn't bother me too much. But just how long it takes to get a good shot release is ridiculous! Iv'e got JJ Redick on my MyTeam and it seems as if I have to hold down X for 3 seconds and then still 90% of the time it's a bad release!
On Pro difficulty on 2k12 I never had any shot release problems (apart from Lin's
) so I don't understand why they have changed it so much?
