is there DEFENSE in this game???

[shadio5]

What the hell did they do to the defense this year??? Please explain to me what I am missing? This game seems like a run and gun free for all

Aside from on ball defense? No. None at all.

Even that is essentially gone. I've been right on people and they're hitting on the park. I'm literally one of the people that was the most hesitant this year to buy until i got live in my hands and knew it wasn't what they made it to be. However, i was loving shutting people down as a 70 when they were rated higher. Only a month into it i can't get a steal or contest a shot. I thought the game was DAMN near perfect on release and now i can't play it. It plays almost EXACTLY like last year.

Ridiculous that it's taken this long to get a patch on transition defense. Records and experiences are left tarnished. When Battlefront comes out I'm out

I'm not seeing run and gun. Although transition D sometimes seems weak. Still seeing realistic FG %. I found some fantastic sliders I downloaded from the community. If you play offline go check out some sliders. Use the point of emphasis too. Seems to help me

Transition defense (or the complete lack thereof) and the ridiculously high accuracy of full court passes has sapped my ability to enjoy this game, and there remains absolutely no feedback from 2K regarding it which is pretty pathetic. Coupled with the way players just exploit it over and over after every made basket and it's far more irritating a game to play than it is fun a lot of the time.

This has been my experience as well. I wasn't playing in the park. But now people can just blow right by my defenders playing on or off. It doesn't matter what I do.
