NBA 2K17 is officially out, which makes basketball fans around the world excited as they wait for the beginning of the season to start. People from around the world are excited to play one of the top basketball games. NBA 2K has dominated the basketball video games for a while as it looks to build upon it's amazing franchise. NBA 2K is a baskteball game where basketball fans can play as their favorite NBA teams or favorite NBA players. This unites basketball fans around the world to face off against friends or complete strangers to see who the best is. With most sports games there are types of people who play the game.
1. The person who has no clue what they are doing
This is the person who doesn't know how to play. They would always ask about the controls. They would run out of bounds for no reason having trouble controlling the players. They would also have trouble shooting they would either tap the button that ends up in a pump fake or hold it too long to end up in a traveling violation. These types of players are the easiest to beat but they hardest to watch play. When you watch these players play all you want to do is grab the controller for them and take over.
2. The person who plays computer defense
This is the person that almost nobody likes. This is the person who lets the computer play defense instead of the actual player. LeBron James would have the ball and instead of being the person guarding James they would be the center or anyone who isn't guarding LeBron. If the gameplay is on Hall of Fame which means the highest difficulty the computer defense can be annoying. This makes the player who is using computer defense look bad in other 2K players' eyes.
3. The person who only uses one player on the team
This is the person who scores all of their points with one player. This is another person the 2k community does not like. If the player would choose the Cavaliers they would only score with LeBron. One player on the team could be open but if it isn't the player they always play with they will not get the ball. Also the one player that the person scores with they will not get subbed out. They will stay in the game and be tired by the second quarter.
4. The person who always uses the best team
This is also another person that people hate. Before I even start on this part, if anyone uses the Warriors in NBA 2K17, they shouldn't play at all. This person wants to play with the best team in the game because having the best team in the game is the only way to win. When they pick any other team or is forced to pick anyone else they are terrible and start complaining. It doesn't matter who the team is as long as it is the best the person will play with them because that gives them the best chance to win.
5. The person who shoots way too many threes
This person loves to shoot the three ball whenever they get a chance. They could be covered or wide open as long as they feel like they got a good shot they will let it fly without hesitation. I am this type of player, so I know from experience. This is the type of player who has a wide open fast break but stops at the three to shoot instead of taking the easy layup or dunk. This is also the player to have shot twenty three pointers in the first half. In this player's defense three points are worth more than two points right?
6. The person who doesn't care if they win or lose
This is the person who just wants to play. They play for the love of the game despite the outcome. They can win by a lot or lose by a lot and would not care. This person believes winning is not important. This person believes as long as everyone has fun everyone is winners. The goal is to have fun not win. Also this person believes a lot in sportsmanship and being nice to the person you are playing against. I AM NOT THIS PERSON!
7. The complainer
The last person is probably the one people hate the most. The complainer finds anything to complain about. They can complain about anything. They complain about the game speed, the difficulty, the camera, the controller, TV, and anything else you can think of. They will find any excuse in the book to complain about if they lose. When they win they would deny everything and act like the greatest.
Good luck to everyone playing NBA 2K17! I hope all your created players do great and your MyTeams have great players. As stated in previous articles, when I get NBA 2K17, I am accepting all challenges and my gamertag on Xbox One is yaboyphil781. Whoever ends up challenging me good luck and you better not pick the Warriors.
