While this doesn't happen over the course of a season, this does happen more consistently against opponents that play poor defense. Look at how good offensive teams and players play against the really bad defenses.

You see some silly numbers across the board.

When two humans play 2k, if they both aren't playing at least adequate defense, you'll SHOULD see some silly numbers, otherwise that means that 2k has artificial caps on the player having nothing to do with control. We don't want the game capped by a Random Number Generator, right?

So it's really on 2k to allow us to play good, consistent defense. That part is up for debate, but we can't just sit here and talk about numbers without talking about defense, ratings, fatigue and offensive player skill.
Totally see what you're saying, I thought he was saying whole teams going 80%, not players. I know that players shoot high percentages like these all the time, but still if you play at the park and quick match at all you'll see guys shooting like this. They're not flukes or hot streaks like something Kyrie had a little bit ago. Players are playing like this game in and game out, online I'm seeing my opponents and I go around 55% all the time, I constantly hit shots I know are well defended and probably shouldn't go in as much as they do and I see the same with the other player too.
