NBA 2K16: 10 Tips To Play Like A God

6. Learn How (And When) To Double-Team

The history of the NBA is littered with dominant offensive forces: Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, and so on. The current crop of unstoppable scorers include LeBron James, Steph Curry and James Harden - players with the capacity to open up an insurmountable points deficit on their own, taking the game away from their opponents within minutes. 2K16 has done a good job of reflecting the dominance of such players. However, just like in real life, there are ways of stopping (or at least limiting) their game-changing influence. One particularly effective tactic is the double-team (LB/L1) which can be used to stifle such dangerous players and even cause occasional turnovers. Be careful when selecting a teammate to help with the double-team, as their man will be left open as a result; never leave a capable shooter open around the arc! It's also important to know when to release the button and revert to a more conventional defensive shape.
