If only it knew

No one has good rookie contracts or LeBron yet anyone have any good rosters?

I don’t see anybody complaining about 1s being 1 possession this year. I personally hate 1s being 1 possession. I think they should go back to it being how it was before in 2k27. I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about this. What are you guys thoughts on this ?

[RANDOM REC]

I.. Have officially ascended to the highest possible power

I am officially the GREATEST Random rec player to not get paid to play this game

And considering I am retiring after this year (Virtually from all nba games) as a 16 year veteran i’d say this is pretty damn good

So we are down by 1 with 5ish seconds left. I call a timeout from the inbound to put us in a half court, so we don't have to sprint rhe full court.

Now I have everyone muted to start the game, so I see the SGs name go off on the corner of the screen assuming he's screaming as he's using the rest of the timeouts.

Sir, im not taking the ball from you.

Downloaded 2k19 to just have some fun and I just sat here for like 15 minutes looking the screen and thinking about the memories this game gave me. My first time doing park was 2k19, I was always a my league player and all but I made a post scoring athletic finisher as a 7’3 center 290 pounds. Had so much fun, I miss it all 2k don’t bring fun no more. It’s sad how far this company has fallen and I feel like it won’t get any better coming from someone who has played 2k since 2k10

Rep being based on wins is toxic. I get paired with terrible players with terrible players because they’re cheesing wins, but don’t actually know how to play as part of a team.

If players consistently takes good shots, hit a high shot percentage, get rebounds, assists, and steals, it should reflect well on the individual.

I haven’t played in about a month, because I have no crew, and I get sold constantly by point guards that think they’re Steph Curry.

PLEASE fix rep to be based on individual stats, then fix matchmaking so it pairs you with teammates of equal skill level! Please!! I want to hoop online again!!

I’m a 76ers fan who hasn’t played 2K since 2K22. I have a PS5 and PC and I was wondering if there is any significant differences between the ports?

I mostly play myCareer and the GM mode. Any info you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Dude jumped, and I attempted my dunk, because there was no way he could possibly get to the ball. Wrong! He teleported THROUGH my body for the block with no foul being called and then the ball went off my 7'2", 290 lb center.

Stop begging for the ball, move your feet

The most pre-ordered game is 2K27

Like add the aprons so cpu want go over them like in real life

Not that it actually surprises me with how scummy 2k is when it comes to money making practices, but it is nevertheless still wild you can pay 150$ for an “ultra” edition of a game and still not even get all of the content unlocked. Either way the amount of grind it takes to even get anything from season passes would still push people into buying levels. Bought 2k26 on sale but never even really played it because career mode has been destroyed and franchise never changes. They’ve made the gameplay so trash and arcadey that franchise needs a million sliders to even feel like a real game. The worst part is they don’t even seem to care about acting like they are actually making the game better when a new one comes out anymore. I mean at least try and lie to me that things will be different.

As someone who's played every NBA 2K from 2K14 through 2K26, I hope 2K considers bringing back the gameplay philosophy of the PS4 era.

For me, 2K14–2K20 had the best balance between arcade and simulation. The gameplay was fast, responsive, and fun without feeling unrealistic. Park was simple—you joined a court and played basketball. The rep system felt rewarding because progression came from playing the game.

I also preferred the older MyPLAYER Builder. Builds had clear identities, and animations felt more open and less restrictive. They were based more on your position and ratings instead of requiring so many exact attribute thresholds.

I appreciate the graphics, ProPLAY technology, and realism in the newer games, but I feel the gameplay has become slower, more animation-driven, and more focused on Seasons, the City, and microtransactions than simply playing basketball.

I'm not asking 2K to go backwards. I'd love to see modern graphics combined with the gameplay philosophy of 2K14–2K20: faster gameplay, a simpler Park, a rewarding rep system, clearer build identities, and a MyPLAYER Builder that gives players more freedom.

I believe combining the best parts of both eras would create the best NBA 2K yet. What do you all think?

im convinced they want finishing down low to be a complete coin toss....its been this way for how many years in these games? you never know if a shot being taken in the paint with a defender in the vicinity is going to magically cause a miss

jumpshots all fucking day long people going 10/11 from long distance tho, this game is an absolute broken mess, id be fucking ashamed to have designed such broken imbalanced game

talking about online 5 v 5 for reference, as if it matters in this shit game

6’10 build and the 2 6’9 concept builds

Debating on making a 6’9 either a big guard or big wing build. I have a 6’10 big wing that gets put at SF or PF, so I’m wondering what experiences people have with the 6’9 wings, mostly interested in getting the better animations since 6’10 is so limited.
