    What I mean, yes Def. Assign. is gone (on ball/off ball/over/under/switch/etc etc) but I am pretty sure that the PoE settings are now changing those in the background.

    For example:

    If you select "limit outside shots" what I believe 2K did was have the def. assignments preset ala "lockdown paint/etc..." from 13. So PoE probably changes def. assign. in the background in conjunction with coach sliders (in background) since those are gone too (all that you can manually change for coach sliders are; run plays and two other ones).

    So in reality doing this will actually get more people using coaching adjustments and def. assignment adjustments but just thru the PoE interface. Sucks for the Coach Tibs in all of us, who want to manually set the defensive settings, but if this gets more people to alter their strategy during the game then I am down with it.
    Removal of individual defensive settings are inexcusable but a good excuse for the coach profiles would probably be that IRL, Coach Tibs can't change sliders that go from 0 to 100 to control his team's behaviours.

      The defense AI seems a lot smarter this year. I can forgive its shortcomings because the game on the court seems so polished. The most amazing basketball game ever made
