The changes to the game, especially dribble moves not happening sometimes even if you put it in correctly were not made to increase skill gap but rather the opposite. The wrong comes from him trying to protect how much he's contributed to the series degrading by attacking those who want the product to go back to trying to be a legit sim.) It could easily be separated from 2K as a distinct product. (And, btw, I don't even think there's anything wrong with a F2P basketball mmorpg that isn't realistic.

And we who are fans of the sport lose the original 2K more and more. So they've pushed the game into becoming a paid F2P streetball (bad) mmorpg. See, the real 'failed dream' thing that's happening here is that these guys want to be able to be a 'killer' iso dude, which they can't do irl. The argument doesn't apply to us, so what then? That still leaves fans of the sport like me, who got into this series as a kid because of how much we liked the sport. So okay, eff the guys with failed sports dreams.

I never wanted to be in the NBA, but a pro sports simulation is fun from an rpg perspective. The fact that he has to assume that everybody playing the game is doing so because they have failed hoop dreams.
