Hoping 22’s defensive improvements don’t make it so you can’t beat defenders with simple reflexes, footwork and athleticism, therefore have to rely on dribble moves. Another issue I found is in 2K22 does anyone find it impossible to use the post trigger, lay into a defender, then spin off them to get to the rack? That was a patented MJ move. In 22 when I try it, my player unrealistically just turns around and faces the defender. So dumb.

Would love to help, but after a full 2 days of playing, I gave up and am sending the game back.

I'm sticking with 2k20 and perhaps even 2k16 again. SOOOO many more player customization options for shooting and dribbling.

I could care less about shiny next gen visuals, so long as I can get players playing the way they should, with unique move sets.
