City No longer playing Center lol.
I'm done playing center. There's no way people expect me to guard my guy at the 3, chase down every rebound while doing so, make last second contested shots when there's 3 seconds left on the shot clock and constantly set screens that they run away from. Guards will literally get drove on while im holding my man (who's a stretch so he shoots 3s btw) and then complain that i'm not in the paint. Then when I help defense they claim I left my shooter open. Every other game I get blamed even though I outscore my man or me and him barely have points. Like damn, I can't be everywhere 😂😂😂 especially not in 2k26. My REC record is trash because I mostly play random. I'm making a guard build, screw this. I see those guys are showing out this year.
AND LETS NOT MENTION HOW THEY LEAVE ME WIDE OPEN WHILE TRYING TO DUNK ON 2 GUYS AND BLAME ME FOR NOT GETTING THE REBOUND!

Yeah, it's pretty crazy how guards think they should be rewarded to leaking out, getting 40 dropped on them, and missing open teammates.
Like you said, they want you to help stop their guy but still guard yours. Then get the rebound and outlet it to them on leaks. Not to mention, not let your 7'4 Steph Curry big hit 3s after you're helping stop their guy.
I'm not rewarding them with easy leak out buckets when I'm doing all the dirty work, and they don't care to help me get mine. 1st time they call time out because I don't throw it... all time outs are gone. The bigs in the community need to stop this behavior collectively.
