2K defense is not dynamic enough, especially with match-ups. There are strict "put best defender on player x" logic but it's not fluid. In fact, some of the best defenders in the league don't always guard the best players, because being the stopper for a full game is too taxing.

Luka plays as a 1 on offense, yet on defense he really guards the 4 (or the weakest wing). As of now and until 2K defense logic improves, Luka should be listed as a 3 or 4 so he is more often guarded by the appropriate player. It especially is a problem because Kyrie is on the same team and listed at 2, so Kyrie by default guards some bigger 2s and... that's not recommended.

Luka should never by default be guarded by small guards, and Luka should never by default guard small guards. It was the same thing with Harden being listed at 1. Harden guarding Fox or the average athletic 1? Amusing to say the least.
