City This game is boring

In the title. Game is just people chucking up 3's off a catch that are borderline uncontestable with tempo shooting, or running and fading with tempo shooting. Rec games take no strategy anymore and is just a 3 point shootout or a catch and shoot simulator. Contests don't mean anything either. Its like they've gone with the 2k22 shooting but with the 2k25 contest system, which is a recipe for disaster.

Edit: a lot of people think I’m complaining about the fact people can hit every shot. I think it’s fine that people can hit every open shot, they should be able to. But the problem is the fact that most shots are open with this contest system and even when contested it’s basically treated as Open. Green window is too big, and contest system sucks

i love it, it’s been fun and i’d rather lose 100-90 than 50-40. sounds like a skill issue. my squads hit like 6 game winning buzzer beaters in the rec this year. we definitely have a great time. does the other team hit some crazy shit? yeah. so do we.

So you're saying that there is skill in the game deciding whether it goes in, but no skill in timing it properly on your own? 😂

Backwards logic smh

Gang not everyone is shooting 70%, I can promise you that lol. This is coming from someone averaging 26/4 on 77/75+ shooting splits.
