          Heavy contested shot even if it not pop up it works thats how you grind this badge in career.

          In online it popup really random even on open shots when a guy is trying to late contest you so its really good badge.

          Bigs can cover to much ground on defense(they are too fast)

          Late contest on laups matter too much.

          Random blocks doing pumpfakes.

          Leaning shots for guys who have catch and shoot badge should be removed.

              Offline yes online its different.

              But you need to shot from free throw line.

              Long midrange and 3p its for deep range deadeye.

                  Not ages i have around 10k points in 1 5 quarter min game.

                  You just go to freethrow line do double crossover and shoot if it says heavy contested you good if you have contested shot in 90 and difficult shots hof you can green it.

                    The practice work for mid-range deadeye is one of the easiest to work through....

                      While you don't get any points on the badge for taking lightly contested shots(only heavily and smothered) it gives you a bigger margin for error on lightly contested shots when shooting midrange shots. Gold basically eliminates a moderate chunk of late closeouts from affecting your shots. HOF basically lets you take any midrange as an OK shot(unless in crowd).

                        Yes, if you shoot immediatly after the stepback its always a light contest. You have to pretty much stand directly in front of your defender...

                          Does anyone realize that when you do a Mid Range Deadeye drill that you dont get 1200 points? I only get 960. I mean it says 1200 but the math shows 960.
                          Playing NBA 2K feels like a job that pays minimum wage and then cuts your pay when you get your Bill's right to make it even harder to succeed. I do not like this game but it's the only one in town.

                            It grinds to catch and shoot as well. If your build doesn't have the Catch and Shoot badge the points go nowhere. If you get your defender to come to you on your shots(heavily contested) the ratio of points going toward mid range deadeye gets bigger.
