This year is beyond cheese. If it's not green it's a brick.

[@billiont.1857]

Bro that’s what I’m saying

[@PlayboyChrisATL60]

Yea it’s annoying even wide open

[@andrewtheog6578]

2K22 is hard for that reason we got double rims

[@olafschnell5801]

You hit nothing, its unplayable this Year, different shot meter on every Position. So many bricks from outside. And the drive to the rim is garbage too, easy lay ups with a little bit contact, and you miss.

[@atticorro]

With every wonderful tips (shooting, driving, playmaking) you've given us so far, it seems that defensive attributes should be prioritized than the others for a great build. 🔒 🔥 💯

[@anthonydavis2071]

For the pick and roll breakdown this weekend can you give details on the freelance system what's different on PS5 I am have trouble adding freestyles like we were able to on PS4. If possible can you take a look at the GSW play book and how to maximize it. Your breakdowns are great definitely has enhanced my game.

[@ToxicAvengerCleanYourMind]

I really like the game but am cursing it so much...Im gonna watch these vids...thx for the help...earned a sub from me

[@solidwisdom8749]

It’s really tough to score in this game. I release it on time it seems but it still says either early release or too late release, makes it so unenjoyable now since I always get blow out in online games often

[@olafschnell5801]

Yes indeed its unplayable. You hit nothing from outside, only when you are free, but the defense is every time on you.the shot meter is the biggest shit, different shot meters on every Position, brick after brick from outside.

[@solidwisdom8749]

Thanks for the video

[@tanw200]

Hey Sam. I've noticed on current gen that you gain less badges for applying the attributes towards certain categories that would benefit a build. For example. A 6"2-6"5 guard receives less badges for applying attribute points towards a block than he would for having a higher rebound stat. when on the court my only job is to guard perimeter and box out my man on defense, is it worth taking a hit to badges for completing my main task?

[@tanw200]

I've got so much flack for this question amongst the people I run with on current gen. It's frustrating having less overall badges when that seems to be what everybody is focused on this year.

[@Independent365]

Do you think this would work with shooting mid-range shots?

[@wezob4569]

Hey Sam good vid. I need some help with defensive settings. There's alot of help coming from the corners this year it's a bit strange. Any tips?

When we exit the screen and get ready for the shot do we let go of everything and press the L2 and square? Or do we just press square while holding the left stick down?

[@SamPhamNBA2KTipsandTutorial]

Let go of everything and square. No need for L2 here since you aren’t canceling any dribbling animations

[@unitynow6043]

Arguably the best 2k vids around. Would love to know why in this years game extremely fast players get that slow down animation when wide open on the break? And good money plays coming?

What I'm about to type might sound weird to you. But I find Dwayne wade with Dwayne wade's releases applies a bigger green window than the regular base Dwayne wade jump shot that you buy in the animation store. Do a 50 50 animation blend with max speed on the timing.
