The stick still takes getting used to, but the punishment for getting yellows isn’t too severe unless you’re boxed out, not in a hot zone, or using a player with poor shooting stats. It has been patched since then, and shooting is much more natural. Dame Lillard was missing open jump shots when the aim was yellow in 2K’s aiming system, yellow means ‘very close but not perfect’. However, if you’ve tried shooting either in the demo or on launch day of NBA 2K21, you’ll know they’ve massively overcooked the difficulty. With this change comes a new dribbling system, which definitely offers greater control and feels more fluid.
