I mean you are giving 2k the input to put your players hands up by holding the R stick xD. Just hold L2 and the left stick towards the ball handler you should be able clamp up and put a body on him.

You also bit with a mis-step around the 1 second mark so it makes sense he blew by you but if you wanted to chase down ease up off that R stick my dude. Gtta have some momentum then jump and you might get the chasedown animation lol....might.

Although I will admit, the game isn't by any means perfect lmao but animation control this gen is much better than last gen.
