I'm SICK of Rec Randoms in NBA 2K23! What more do I need to do?!

[@darthkowboy3175]

HEAVY on that last part... HEAVY! I just played a game today with randoms let me just say someone literally left their man open every play main reason we lost, but mostly everyone played no defense. But I started like 6/6 from three no misses, I miss one shot the big man on my team flops on me... im now about 7/8. That's when I knew he was a hater. Meanwhile he shot 6/13 taking contested standing layups with an undersized center. Then, we lose because he let a small guard lay him to tie the game and we lose in OT. It's crazy the most trash person will send you a message calling you trash just because I'm scoring while someone keeps leaving me open. People are HATERS. If I see someones man leaving them open I'm going to let them eat. People are WEIRD!! Don't get me wrong I play with a lot of cool teammates and win but man A LOT of these guys are truly a headache to play with.....

I'm so glad that you're a popular 2K figure that actually plays random rec. NOBODY talks about these issues that have quite frankly ruined the game mode. While you can't fix stupid, 2K can do a lot to help normal people avoid these trolls. Basic matchmaking would solve a majority of it by putting players that want to (and can) win together and leaving those "less talented" to play with each other.

[@CHRIS-fp8bd]

they already have matchmaking. when you play rec on like a 90-93, thats who you'll be matched up with but even if you play rec on 99 you'll 9/10 get teamed with idiots at a high 96-99 overall

[@AstuteExxy]

Well let’s also be fair inside centers actually suck this year like some people just wanna play like a real center but u can’t really do that in 2k cuz layups and post moves suck some people don’t enjoy sitting in the corner all game just standing there that’s not what centers do irl but centers also don’t suck irl at scoring. Also tbh at like 6:17 u see the problem with 2k like dawg no nba center are missing those layups those are open af realistically.

[@zacmitchell]

I’m a 99 defensive anchor with 99 offensive and defensive rebounding, 99 block. I get several offensive rebounds a game and I always kick it back out. Only score 8 to 10 points a game but I grab 15 to 20 rebounds a game on rec. I just set screens, catch lobs and grab boards. I need guys to run with!!!

[@HotTakes18]

Man I made a inside center that is good …but go into Rec with randoms and then pass out the offensive rebounds and they drive in and try to dunk on me before I can even clear instead of shooting a wide the fuck open 3 lmfao… I had to make a center that can shoot as well, because some guards “don’t need screens”

[@VisionzTrue]

passing out as a center must be outlawed or something cuz them MFs dont have a pass button. idk whats worse PGs who dont pass or bigs who dont pass out

[@CDiesel720]

Aint nothing wrong with inside centers IF you are playing with a squad and the offense is centered around pick and roll. They have a use in Pro AM. In random rec, they are no good unless they know the PG. With that being said, they are not at bad as the dudes who can't stay still and cut all game long, and can't hit open 3's.

[@love2lovesum1]

As someone who mainly plays Center on 2K, the only time I don’t pass out after getting an offensive rebound is if the guards aren’t passing it to me when I perfectly cut to the paint or I’m just straight up wide open in the paint and just not getting the ball. It’s a 2-Way street. You can’t ball hog and take contested shots or get double teamed and not pass it to the wide open man but then turn around and get mad at the big who’s not passing out after getting an offensive rebound. I have a Nikola Jokic type of mindset when it comes to my Playmaking on my Center builds. I have at least Gold Dimer on all my builds so it’s not like I don’t enjoy Playmaking. There’s been plenty of times, in fact 9 times out of 10, I end up having the most assists out of everyone and they’ll still be selfish with the ball after I’ve been Playmaking my ass off. Everyone wants to score so just look for the open man and try to get everyone involved to make everyone happy. Obviously the goal is to win but the game doesn’t have to be won selfishly.

I think the biggest issue with these centers is the fact that they’re so used to being able to go back up with it. This is my first 2k in 2-3 years and in most of the past 2ks I’ve played it’s been pretty consistent going back up with it but this years post scoring/standing lays has to be the dumbest shit ever.

[@AiirxGeordan]

Something randoms need to hear. If you’re a wing and you don’t have the ball, stand in the corner. Don’t stand on the elbow, or the wing and especially not the top of the key. If you’re in any of those spaces, the point guard can’t do shit. They can’t drive because your guard is in position to pinch, and they can’t use the pick and roll for the same reason. Unless you’re on weak side and they’re driving, you should be in the corner, or cutting from the corner

[@godkinghope8239]

Hell no center needs to be in the corner you trippen fr and screens are trash you shouldn't be handling the ball you can't score at will

@@OhSoSumptuous thanks a lot bro thats good info

[@AiirxGeordan]

@@rymesyt851 then it’s ok to be on the wing as it’d be a 5 out offense formation. If it turns into that, then things like back cuts and screens will be easier since there’s nobody in the paint. Also, if you do get in that position on the wing, try to be a little deeper behind the three point line (still in shooting range though), so the point guard still has a bit of space.

[@FlashThundarr]

Vote to kick is the answer to toxic REC randoms. I remember having the feature in Rainbow Six: Vegas back in the day, it worked so well. If I get voted out the game by 4 other players, I just have to accept that maybe they saw a reason to all agree that they'd be better off with my AI. I think the feature actually urges players to communicate, "Yo, my bad, don't kick me!" " An armed society is a polite society.

[@NCYungin]

This is every day with me bro, chit get stressful to even play

[@Dimework]

Facts my g!

[@johncadot]

I normally play on a stretch/post big with 81 middy - but lately been trying out my PG it only has a 73 middy and gold middy magician. could i be real consistent on the pull up mid range game ? asking cause i feel like im pretty automatic on my big with my post fades and post hop shots and trying to increase my PG IQ and shot selection etc. without making a whole new build thanks boss

[@Dimework]

I like to have atleast an 85 mid to be consistent…but I’ve done pretty well with a 75 in the past

[@kingmoreactions5766]

Yoooo dime work is hilarious with the rec randoms 🤣🤣

[@jayoocapoo]

Idk something about this 2k23 matchmaking with randoms. I keep getting randoms that quit 2 mins in the game it the worst

[@Dimework]

It’s bad bro! 💯

[@East_The_Gawd]

Nahh the frustration sounds different this vid lmaooo

[@Dimework]

It is! 😭 I been tryna keep cool but these dudes make it impossible!

[@rehvinndeleon1352]

I was a PG inside out scorer build but some centers always tries and be like PG but keeps on fumbling. It pissed me off. So I build center in order to just get rebounds and dish outside to reset the offense. If I score, cool. Buy my main goal is to get rebounds and reset. SMH for centers like in the video and for other rec randoms

[@TazZ243]

Wish I could run with a PG like you on Xbox fam. Everyone wants to be MJ. You gotta know your strengths. Nothing wrong with playing a role. Play defense and score when the offense demands it from you. It's not hard, I truly don't understand randoms. No IQ whatsoever. They can't tell the difference between a ball hog vs someone who's scoring because it's necessary.

[@ziah.-buxks4290]

Keep up the work Dime. Need some consistent vids dropping very entertaining brother.

[@Dimework]

I appreciate it bro! 💪💯

[@daberechiokeke9688]

This was literally me two days ago on my 99 3 point build as well 😂😂. Went to 2OT and had to score 52 to win

[@therealdg4458]

The craziest shit about these randoms is THEY WILL BE THE FIRST TO CALL U TRASH OR TRY TO GET THE BALL nd all they do is LOSE everytime they hop on da game… they KNOW they not good nd still try to be the man instead of playin they role

[@Dimework]

Exactly 🤣

[@coolazzkobe660]

Didn’t that guy have like 5 blocks but some of them shots under the rim could’ve been made depends on his inside attributes

[@the___rebel5877]

💯 Rec randoms are a different breed 😂

[@Dimework]

🤣💯

[@Tae901]

To anyone watching this video that runs current gen and thinking about switching to next gen, PLEASE don’t. The randoms are worse than you can imagine and if you don’t run with a squad you won’t stand a chance.

[@BGDaddy04]

This is my first 2k since 20 and I went in not knowing much about the builds, so my build isn't the greatest, but the toxicity in the Rec is mind blowing! I've watched a lead get blown so much because of the dumb 💩! Repeated full court/cross court passes that get picked off 95% of the time, flopping instead of getting back on D, calling all the timeouts because they're throwing a temper tantrum and probably will quit anyway, get down by 6 to 10 points and quit, dumb turnovers, quitting within the first 2 minutes of the 1st quarter, passing into a clogged lane, trying to pass when there's a defender between them and the person they're trying to pass to, running out of bounds REPEATEDLY, trying to steal repeatedly but only fouling, goaltending, fouling late in the shot clock when that team was more than likely going to have a shot clock violation, taking dumb*ss fadeaways (usually around the 3-point line) when you're not built like that or don't have the knowhow, playing PG when they're not a PG or don't know how to play point, taking every shot like they're god's gift to 2k, trying to make shots over 2 or 3 defenders, trying to dunk in a clogged lane, clogging the lane, leaving people wide open on defense (REPEATEDLY when they keep making 3 pointers), unwarranted double teaming when they typically only get in the way and cause a score, being up by 10 or so points and then making 4 or 5 horrible plays on offense usually leading to wide open 3s or dunks on the other end, and much more other countless dumb 💩!! 2K logic also kills me. Why are force out fouls not consistent? How did I foul someone while trying to pass the ball to a teammate? Damn, I'm about to write a novel!! 🤣😂🤣

[@Him.different22]

“You can not fix stupid” OMG IF THAT AINT FAX.

[@Dimework]

Stg bro 💯

[@CDiesel720]

I don't know how people can have the patience to play random rec. EVERY time I attempt to just get a game in random rec, I get the dumbest of the dump people on my team. These dudes do not want to win...they want to be trolls. And it's confirmed as I'll get out the game and check their win % and it will be 30 or lower.

[@joshuamason3827]

yo dime i got a question. When u be the stepback shotcreating shots, do u use the right trigger to time it or do you use the shooting button. Cause for me its kinda hard to pull off the move with the shooting button but its harder to time it with right stick.

[@Dimework]

I use the shot button most of the time. Sometime I use the right stick too. I suggest practicing a lot in MyCareer.

[@Realty2_]

Yeah it’s getting ridiculous! We need a team vote to kick players selling the game purpose or something

[@edzon10001]

Bigs that can’t space the paint got IQ the equivalent of a block of cheese 😵‍💫

[@Dimework]

😭😭😭 Facts

[@Meskamooskaa]

It was games when I brought us back in the game and they stop passing me the ball for some reason, when they missing all their shots I swear people in Rec are weird bro.

[@Dimework]

That’s a fact my g 💯

[@alex97alex]

Big man went 7/21 😂😂
