It’s a lot of bad factors mixed in. SBMM is still in the game. The player base actually shrunk by a large margin and more of the quality players stopped playing so now you’re getting the bad end of players more consistently. It’s the EOMM that you’re experiencing because this exact thing happens in COD and Apex all the time where you’ll have great games at first, then you’ll get teammates that are completely under skilled however, your opponents is the SBMM because they can equal up to your skill level. And, I also believe the player base is so low now, even in solo Rec, I get put in squad Rec games because the matchmaking is so much longer from season 1. This is what happens when games are afraid to implement a disciplinary system to force people to learn and play the game properly or face penalties. Comparing to 23 & 24 to 25 with the shooting, those games had pure green windows and only the speed of the shot animations was what altered. 25, there is no pure green window and the green window actually changes after a small number of shots made. The game is sluggish and sloppy with all of this RNG and animations which makes it even more unrealistic.
I have the complete opposite experience ! them young fellas i encounter, play like they were born 2 hours ago.. No Basketball iq.. just hiding behind a big.. holding R2 spamming the dribble button, until they accidentally hit a good animation and shoot the ball. the other type of Pg is the guys who`s left stick dribbling around the court, wasting 18-20 seconds of the shot clock, aaaand then when frustration kicks in, when they get locked down, they pass the rock to me (SG) expecting me to do some crazy iso fade shit within 3 seconds.

Happy New Year I been watching you since 2k22 keep it up
My guy rocking the OJ gloves
Yep, one game I had 15 Rebs in the first quarter and my matchup had 0 or 1…2k would NOT let me grab another rebound until the third quarter 🤣🤣🤣
The rebounding shii is facts. It’s makes zero sense
When they took skill matchmaking out of rec this game was going to be trash asf smh it’s sad
I think alot of this is so we keep making builds makes you feel like you are missing something
You just exposed them Ian even think of that
