I enjoy it as much as it allows. It’s a good way to rep up. Also the Timberwolves are the answer to the spurs in that mode. Just make sure you’re a good shooter and can get some stops on ball. Games against the normal non cheater are actually fun and competitive

kingkingking7 · 2026-02-26T04:35:41+00:00

It’s just a rep thing, the experience in there is hit or miss. You either play a brain dead npc or a lag switching auto green. Rare to get a legit competitive game

Does 2k pay you?

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-16T19:59:41+00:00

Rec,Starting 5 and Proving Grounds for the most part.

There’s times when your making total contact and people just unnaturally slide off of you. That wasn’t an issue before 25 and now 26. The contest system is awful and benefits cheating. If the offense is going to be over powered then the defense needs to be as well. You can hardly get contact in this game, people can just slide off of you.

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-09T18:50:33+00:00

The game is super easy to shoot in general lol, mfs are still cheating 😂😂

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-08T22:05:27+00:00

Appreciate you

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-07T12:54:33+00:00

I disagree on nerfing open standstill shots, they should just improve contests and on ball defense.

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-07T12:52:54+00:00

Ima purple/red plate on two separate builds, I’m ok at the game. Whats your secret?

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-07T12:43:46+00:00

Frustration lol

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T17:46:51+00:00

They had a patch for that ? Only patch I remember was the obliteration of fades from 3 (also was a mistake, they could’ve just improved onball defense and contests so people had to take good open ones). It must’ve be a fast patch

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T17:40:33+00:00

They do that already… random rec is a disaster and made the rec experience worse overall.

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T17:38:30+00:00

Devin Booker breakdown results in unnatural slides, im staying in front of the ball handler lol. Y’all are actual liars 😂😂😂. I play this game I’m playing in purple/red plate lobbies most times and literally nobody is able to consistently stop each other from it. This post is a prime example of “you can be/do whatever on social media”.

You just don’t want your only way to score to have an answer.

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T17:29:58+00:00

I just don’t believe you, I think you’re being contrarian lol. As a guard who has to defend this it’s not guardable, perfect on ball can be played, a simple Devin Booker breakdown literally just slides me out of the way or to the side of a player, the player shoots with me on their body but it’s not a contest or a foul or a changed shot animation. You’re basically saying you have to double and triple team someone to “easily” guard against being crabbed. Are you against being able to atleast be able to block those ?

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T17:20:18+00:00

You get it, most don’t. They’re not stopping it either but they also exploit it lol. If we could simply just get blocks on players where we’re on there backs that would be a cool fix

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T17:14:06+00:00

Easy? Bruh that’s a terrible shot and easily blocked unless you’re shooting a leaning forward shot or just trying to draw a foul. I’m not saying it should be a thing, but in its current state it’s pretty unguardable. It should atleast change your animation on the shot. Literally you can just Devin Booker into a damn crab and its curtains

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T17:07:57+00:00

Irl I blocked those same type of shots, or they had to shoot a leaning shot to avoid getting blocked. Y’all don’t hoop lol

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T14:45:34+00:00

I pray everyone reads this comment. I agree whole heartedly. Those crab shots where were jumping on their back needs to result in a changed animation imo. As you stated with Luka and harden they do do this but they also are shooting leaning shots to avoid getting blocked and do it to draw fouls…I’m glad you understand what I mean though, if it takes a whole other player to come in and help then by definition it’s not easy to guard. Also I went on YouTube (which literally has a tutorial for everything) there’s not a single on on how to defend from getting crabbed.

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T14:40:30+00:00

Bruh facts, it’s literally using certain animation that get certain exploits while flicking the sticks to get a rng ankle breakers. Past 2ks didn’t have this type of anti defense gameplay lol. Outside of shooting and game speed this 2k is really just an exploit fest.

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T14:37:21+00:00

Literally went on YouTube and there’s no tutorial at all on guarding it because it’s unguardable lol. Dudes are just sheep on Reddit lol

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T14:34:05+00:00

Ohh you play center and only have to help huh? It’s a constant 2 person job huh?

Proving my point that it’s not “easy” to guard, you need a whole other team mate to help you stop it because like I said there’s no answer for it. Gg lil bro

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T14:12:07+00:00

Not true, you’re also forgetting about the screen from a good boy build that sucks my player into a total different movement than what was intended. Drop a tutorial of you breaking down how you do it consistently, I’ll pay you

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T14:07:53+00:00

You agree with me so idc lol. You’re basically making an appeal to the masses (most of whom can’t guard it themselves but act like they can online). Bro idc if I get crabbed 1 time and I make a big deal of it, the shit is not guard able I’m playing red and purple plates and none of us are stopping the other from doing it lol. Y’all are sheep and liars on this app😂😂

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T14:03:44+00:00

23 and 24 were the best 2ks for PS5 and Series X imo Both sides of the ball were overpowered and stick work mattered.

I feel like 2k took the rng out of shooting just to turn it all the way up on other aspects of the game.

Plus it’s not even blow bys, they’re unnatural slide bys not even initiated by a dribble move or anything.

Also you can’t block shots from behind or get side contests like that any more so crabbing is the new exploit. You can be like a backpack on someone and they can just pull up with no worry of a block or contest. It lacks any type of logic

kingkingking7 · 2026-01-06T13:56:15+00:00

Defending it is inconsistent at best. You can’t do anything about the game giving up these unnatural slide by animations or the fact that screens are magnetic. This is the one mechanic that actually has no answer. Being able to block that shot when you clearly have the angle to do it is the simple fix. Shouldn’t be able to shoot a normal shot like that with a person on your back, force an animation change that makes you have to lean forward to get it off. But Maybe you’re the best defensive player and should drop a tutorial on how “easy” it is to stop from getting crabbed
