@BeLiKeDime I don't understand how you can lose your green window from a defender that was way out of position and then he made contact with you after the layup. This should've been a make and a foul.
I know the majority of people are probably going to say this is a "bad take"....but it's clearly a wide open lay up until a guy who was on the ground while I'm mid layup decided to jump... this is the type of stuff I'm talking about when I say paint defense needs to be more precise.
If this gets blocked cleanly, I'm totally fine with it. But in order for this defender to jump and "contest" me he literally had to foul me in the process. But 2K does not call these fouls for whatever reason.
Watch anyone contest a layup in the NBA, they don't jump into the shooter...they either jump straight up or away. No ones flying from across the other side jumping into the shooter without a foul call.
Layup finishing would be way more realistic if actual fouls were called and paint defense would be more skill based. Sure, it may result in more free throws...but that's a part of the game. Slashers draw fouls..and this would stop players from unrealistically jumping at EVERYTHING going to the rack regardless of positioning.
Whistle needs to come back as an elite finishing perk. 95+ Layup and Dunks should have it.
