Here is some irrefutable evidence to substantiate my claims. https://youtu.be/C2u9XaAYxxc https://youtu.be/0wcGHpuQ15A https://youtu.be/9tnVlP3G3_g And how does a reigning two time dpoy not have at least a 99 on ball rating when he clearly is regarded as the best position defender in the league, or at least a HOF defensive badge? And to boot klay thompson retains a 90+ 3pt rtg when he's shooting 37% yet kawhi got dropped from a 91 to 83 despite shooting 40%? 2k is beginning to look more and more like fan boys every year. If you cannot be objective in all your ratings maybe you shouldn't have "live updates" all together. Personally I cannot wait for live to come out, not to jump ships, but I feel it as a necessity to keep 2k from being so lackadaisical in all there updates....and I won't even get into the park/ pro-am issues

Kawhi's ball handling is where it should be. Those moves you posted are high school level, two right-to-left/left-right crossovers and a double cross, moves that every top 1000 point guard does multiple times again. I can promise you I did those moves 150 times each in my 4 years of high school. The main criticism of Kawhi offensively is his ball handling, he doesn't really breakdown his defender, he tries to straight line drive past them most of the time, or shoot over them.

Klay Thompson is shooting 37% through 26 games, bringing his career percentage down to 41.6%, a number through 400 games. And you have to take into account his 37% this season is after his terrible start. Anyone can understand why that isn't changing.
