Is Blocking Overpowered?

First off, I love this game hats off to the developers and creators.

I’m noticing a lot of blocked shots in games. Even point guards are getting in on the fun. Has anyone else been experience a block party in their games?

I think blocks/steal attempts/dunks should diminish stamina a bit more and maybe affect vertical rating overtime imo. Kind of like conserving your energy to play optimally throughout the game.

Yes I have seen so many blocks. My first game Anthony Davis had 12 blocks by the end of the 3rd quarter. To make things worse I had 7 blocks with Kendrick Nunn. I guess we have to turn the slider for blocks down considerably.

Yeah I'd have to agree with this. Although overall I'm so happy with the defending on this game.

But it seems too easy to spam block or press block way ahead of an offensive player putting up a shot, and them still go ahead and put up the shot.

There should be a penalty for mistiming blocks.

I like the blocks just need to call more shooting fouls.

Yes, but it’s pretty awesome the new block tech in game! I have seen some sick blocks! Sliders are your friend. Sometimes… lol

True. Not complaining about the type of blocks I'm getting.

It's more that there isn't much penalty for timing. Like you said giving up more shooting fouls, jumping on pump fakes and giving up easy baskets would be nice.

Re: Is Blocking Overpowered?

i go with the one before me: the Total number of Blocks is totally fine. In Prior years we had so Few Blocks in the game. but we have to punish jumping All the time. we need Bad outcomes = more shooting Fouls. especially under the basket you can get the defender in the air all the time yet He is able to contest every shot attempt by just jumping All the time. There needs to be a downside for Bad Block attempts.

Re: Is Blocking Overpowered?

If you're playing offline, sliders are a big help. Some minor tweaks should more than cover the issue.

Online, you can punish errant jumping hard this year. Use it to your advantage. We need that rim protection.

Leave my blocks alone, man, lol
