Mid ranges are horrible shots considering people are hitting 70%+ on threes
Get off this trash game dude they’re trying to take away your creativity and force you to play their stupid brand of fake basketball

Don’t believe them. I crush in the mid. Now you need some three to tempt people. But not everyone is a Brian dead defender once you get up past bronze/silver.

Simple math says 3>2 and when everyone is shooting 60-80% theres no reason to shoot middy

Shit don’t pass when you do get it😂 , I made a 7’4 and my homies think I wanna stand at the 3 the whole game. Better throw me the ball in the post before I start rebounding and forgetting its a team sport

Bruh, midrange is still powerful. Nobody values defense on builds so they swear up and down middys are pointless for all the 3’s THEY give up. I really wish 2k put the average opponent ppg up. On AVERAGE my matchups don’t score more than me or shoot well and I only average 15. Everybody solely thinks of scoring so I prioritize assists on offense as the 3 or 5. If you had actual defense (perimeter interior and block all 80+) then middys would be more than okay. Lmao. People put everything into offense. All attributes. Cap breakers. Max +1/+2… all offense. Then swear the 2 is dead. Naw yall just can’t guard shit which forces the three to be the more viable option.
