    Blacktop is a disgrace this year

    Why give the person that checks the ball the option to just take the ball and do whatever he wants with it? You know what happens? This....ImageUploadedByTapatalk1354431391.475206.jpg

      Well, first off, that's what happens in a 3v3 street game (PG can do what he wants), second off, you have to expect to have some ballhogs, 3rd, it shouldn't matter cause you getting VC and not getting ripped off completely.

      Not everyone is a ballhog, play with your friends for a better experience.

        I hate when someone kills a whole mode because someone else ruined it by their play. Even if they forced the guy who is checking up to pass, who says the guy he passes to will not ballhog as well. Like the dude said above, play with people you know.

          IRL in a street game you have to pass the ball in when its checked to you and 2k needs to add that in

            Lol of all the things I was expecting to see being complained about, I was not expecting to hear cries of ballhogging.

            It is certainly a pain to deal with ballhogs but the dude hogging the ball in the second screenshot was doing work, so i dont really get the complaint. It can be boring when 1 person takes all the shots but if they score efficiently, then what can you really say? Its just good strategy to feed the hot hand.

            My larger complaint than people ballhogging is people that dont understand that blacktop is a game that is won outside-inside, not the other way around. You are almost better off taking almost all 3s than going to the hoop. And mid range jumpers and Oops are the worst possible shots in the whole mode. Its just a matter of probabilities. Style points dont count for anything so all the attempts to cross players or get the most incredible dunks arent nearly as effective as looking for open shooters and taking dunks when they close out on the shooters.

                If the ballhog is playing point then he doesn't automatically get the ball. If only one of the other two who aren't playing point is a ballhog, then don't inbound to him. Kind of screwed if all three or the two not playing point are ballhogs though.

                  Yup the unwritten rule of street ball, pass the ball in and then you play, why this isn't in the game I have NO idea.

                    Dude it's obvious ... The point guard is checked the ball then he can't shoot the ball he has to pass it before he can do anything. Still the other players can ball and ball hig but at least everyone can get touches

                      So if everybody gets a chance to ballhog then the mode is fine?

                      Two players could easily alienate a player if thats the case, so if two buddies get on they don't have to pass you the ball at all and keep it among themselves. Then how would one correct that? Simply adding them to check up won't save this 'Look At Me' mode.

                        At the very least it would be two people ball hogging instead of one. In that situation you have at least two guys getting up 10+ shots instead of one person getting 17-20 like I posted in the OP. I don't see how you don't understand this. It at the very least gives two people the chance to play on a team instead of one. Right now its one vs 3 and the other two guys don't get to do anything with the ball unless its off a steal/block or rebound.

                          Then that's what you get. No way to fix that unless less 2k makes a stupid rule saying you can only shoot so many shots and then everyone will complain. So if this is what's always happening to you then stop playing it then
