Fix the Dribble Pull-up/Difficult Shots Badge

Since the last patch the dribble pull up has been completely broken as the timing has become so strict that even using a simple 15-17 foot pull up is overly risky and inefficient to attempt. It has become a more efficient play to fish for pull up and step back 3s then to just get your defender to bite, blow past them and take the easy two. It is also easier in many cases to time the fading side ways shots then the simple straight on pull up which is completely unrealistic, especially since it seems the timing is different on the pull up depending on what the dribble hand the ball is in.

Difficult Shots Badge. To make matters worse for shot creators is that the badge seemingly has little to no effect even on hall of fame. I tested extensively with the bade completely off vs the badge on hall of fame on dribble pull-ups, dribble fades, and step backs and can could not notice any difference in success percentages. The difficult shots badge was always the primary badge for shot creators and now it seems to be completely irrelevant.
