Just beat the CPU on Hall of Fame, simulation difficulty without calling any plays, not even a single pick, ANDDDDD only using one player:

Anthony Davis: 72 points on 31/40 shooting
To perform this winning strategy, all you need to do is select Anthony Davis' position as your "Preferred Position" in the options and then turbo him to the other side of the court every possession. You can even do this while using him for defense too!
This is not a post to brag (as this is obviously cheese of the lowest scumbag variety) but rather to further show how broken the defense in this game is.. I know the Mavs are awful but cmon.... 72 pts in HOF difficulty by ONE player without even trying? Anthony Davis is one of the fastest players in the game so this could theoretically work against any team which has slower bigs than him (read: every single NBA team)
If this works against a HOF CPU, then it'll definitely work against unexpecting online players. How are we gonna counter this cheese? Is there even a chance we can expect that 2K is paying attention to our complaints and will try to fix the mind-bogglingly awful full-court passing/off-ball transition D in the game?
