But as Coach2K on YouTube points out in the video above -- you don't have to use the shot meter to be successful in NBA 2K17.

Why would you not use the shot meter? A couple of potential reasons come up. First, if the shot meter is tweaked for less green releases you aren't going to be affected by those changes. Second, you'll be more focused on the on-court action than if you are constantly looking at your shot meter.

The visual feedback you get from your shots will tell you if you are releasing too early or too late -- and from there you'll be able to adjust your shot releases.

Check out the video and let us know if you are one of the adventurous types playing NBA 2K17 without the shot meter on!
A lot of these tricks and visual aids have been in 2k since sig style became a thing. I gave shot meters a chance this year. But I noticed I shot tooo many air balls. So I went back to my old school ways. And now I'm shooting a waaaay high%.

Another thing I like to add offensive rebounds are huge.
