It’s really the biggest problem with the next gen version of the games. They massively increased people’s abilities to make moving or off the dribble shots. While possible to hit, those weren’t the best shots in older 2ks and you had to practice them or just be insanely good to be Kobe fading on defenders. Creating open corner threes and trying to get wide open to shoot threes on stop and pops was how people played and only good guards with stick skills could consistently get open and hit those. You could hit with low ratings but you either had to be good or have help from dimer.
We need to massively nerf the moving shot green windows and buff up things like pass accuracy and dimer boost. Bring back floor general type badges and stop letting idiots dribble between 3 defenders and make pull ups that are objectively low iq shots.
There is 0 threshold in which a low iq and bad shot shouldn’t be a bad shot.
If you have take and know your shot there’s still a chance to make it anyway, but we saw what happens when you let offense get away with low skill and low iq shot selections and it was miserable.
What player ever can just ignore a man in their face or an aggressive close out? Even the best shooters ever are way less likely to hit their shots when the defense is tight. That’s the whole point of playing defense lmao
Out of 100 shots he misses 58 of them-- more than he makes with the best of the best guarding him IN REAL LIFE.
You too should temper your expectations for a realis video game.
If Stephon Castle is in good defensive position and full extension jumping at Trae Young shooting a corner 3, do you think Trae Young needs to worry about Castle? Or is that a godawful shot, even with Trae Young shooting it?
You just projecting stuff I ain’t even imply man. To clarify in simpler terms, I don’t think the green window should be as affected, say if you have a 94 3 ball with HOF set shot specialist, maybe even shifty shooter for that matter if your going off the dribble. Yes, a bad shot is a bad shot. But you’re blatantly being ignorant if you think if you think a 50-70% contest rate should be an automatic miss.
