My suggestion to you would be to give ball-handlers more space than you're accustomed to. This will allow you to react to their moves, while staying between them and the rim. If someone makes an aggressive move, use the quick Shuffle to keep up what do sow sparingly because a quick counter can make you pay.

Wrong. If my defense was good in 2k13, 2k15, and 2k16, it should be good in 2k18.

I'm not your typical defender. I don't play up close and force contact. I don't 'ram' into them several times. I give them space, watch their movements, adjust where I want them to go, cut off the baseline, etc. As I said before, all I do is play on ball defense. When you play against the Warriors and Cavs 24/7 you have no choice but to be good with on ball defense

Everything you're telling is what I've always done.

There seems to be some type of 'lag' like my player is stuck in quick sand, but the game runs fine
