I keep missing WIIIIIDE open jumpers with 88 shot in MyPark

[Goob63]

I'm a 6'3 outside pg with max shooting. Which turns out to be 88. Yet I miss so many shots I might as well go on my inside SF. And I mean wide open. Guys are in the paint and I'm shooting a 3 or even a mid. I've used all the 'op' jumpers and some weird ones. Nothing is consistent. Im not missing releases and I flat out will not shoot when a defender is within 10 feet of me. 88 3 ball and mid. And I miss

Oh. And I have all the badges. Shooting wise anyway. Limitless. Corner. Deadeye. Fade bank creator. All of em

Im pretty much used to missing open shots. Do you use boost? And what I do now is wait like a split second then shoot. I'm much better doing that than catching and shooting. I just shot 4/6, most of the ones I made I waited just a second and took the shot. There was one occasion, I got the ball and immediately shot it and of course I missed even though I was open and feedback was A-. May sound dumb but I guess that's how 2k rewards people idk but it's working for me.

It is happen in the NBA all the time. In the Warriors game tonight Curry was. Missing wide open shots you'll be alright

I'm in the same boat as you bruh, but what frustrates me is that you got some guys that can hit no matter what. For example l was playing against some Rivet dudes yesterday and they had a player that l don't think missed he was hitting with hand's in his face, he even hit a few from half court. But yet l can barely hit wide open shots with my maxed out jump shot.

Didn't you know? The highest percentage jumpshot to take in 2k is when someone is closing in a bit late.

I'm not mad at it. If you watch any NBA game you'll see how many open shots are missed

Mark Jackson on Steph Curry - "To a degree, he’s hurt the game. And what I mean by that is I go into these high school gyms, I watch these kids, and the first thing they do is run to the 3-point line."

Except this totally applies to 2K ;p

You are now allowed to shoot from 7 places on the court:

Corners: Left and Right.

Baseline 16 ft Mid-range Left/Right.

Elbow Mid-Range left/right

Under the basket dunk.

You can green all of these shots. Go into your gym on HOF/Sim and practice your Mid-Range from the spots. Learn your release and you will green them. ^.

In order to practice greens from the corner, you need to do it in game. Not in your gym.

Edit: The highest levels of play on the park are predicated on either dunks, or greens. Nothing else. You should not think it acceptable to take any other kind of shot unless absolutely forced to.

to bad that doesn't apply to the CPU. Pretty much all open shots go in.

Are you sure you're really open?

I play Defense in the park (rare) and I hear dudes on mic blaming 2k for their misses and claiming they were open when I was clearly able to affect their shot.

Do you use the Shot Meter? Don't! Take off the shot meter, it will only steer you wrong. Use the animation or better yet USE THE FORCE! Feel your shot instead of worrying about meters and it becomes easier

This right here. If everyone else was missing open ones once in awhile I might be alright with it. But you get these dude that have no idea what the paint even looks like. They run back and fourth on the 3pt line and hit everything.

And to add to the rest. Yes I'm positive I'm wide open. I'm not taking 10 jumpers a game I actually barely shoot. 3-4 shots usually and only one or two will be from 3 (I like to set up my guys a lot. It's a problem lol). Just still frustrating seeing someone on the other team hit one in my face (lvl 18 d I think now, with auto shot contest. Literally in my face), and then I get open in the corner and miss.

I was feeling the same way, but reading this really helped me:

The bad news is that it's most likely something you're doing wrong, but the good news is that you can work on it. Turning off shot meter helped me, I was shooting noticeably better after turning it off.

Re: I keep missing WIIIIIDE open jumpers with 88 shot in MyPark

One thing to note (especially online) is that people have these invisible force fields/magnets around them.

You can affect people's shots without being right next to them.... I ALWAYS try to block a shot even if I'm far away because you can "feel" it pushing against the opposing player.

This was super noticeable in 2k14 Park. I was basically "blocking" shots from 5 feet away.

Whether you like this or not, it's something to keep in mind when deciding whether or not you are really open.
