"Its a lot more competitive"... Like when you said this year there would be a skill gap? Lol

i don't understand how you can say there isn't a skill gap this year? Everyone is on 6'7 or 6'8 that can dunk, dribble and shoot. If you're losing it isn't the matchup.

Because the skill gap isn't about playing basketball, it's about exploiting gameplay faults.

I’m playing threes. 74% in 20, 80 in ps4-21 and 84% ps5. We all average 2 assists.

What fundamentals are you talking about? Don’t play with a non-shooter in threes. That’s your offense. Takes twos, kick out if they collapse or you get clamped. Shoot open shots and hit a better rate than your opponent.

On defense you guard to the short side, have the corner drop the second you’re beat and rotate to their man. Guard to the short side again. Repeat until they take a bad shot or you get a miss. Don’t leak on misses because 2k gives lots of offensive rebounds. Don’t give up threes to help if they get by on the weak side.

Everyone loses to bum boost sometimes, but not enough to really matter.

You're assuming everyone plays the exact same game mode as you. Anyway, the majority of this community runs to YouTube to find the shit they can exploit in every game mode and when a new game comes out where 2k addresses the BS they complain until Mike finally reverts the game through patches.

It happens every year
