The Dominance of Ben Simmons in 2K

When will 2K ever get it right with his attributes?

We know that the skill set is there, but he has not lived up to the pure dominant traits that makes him a monster in the game itself.

Why would he dominate in 2K when he doesn't dominate in real life? He has played 42 games in 2 seasons and averaged 6.9 points per game. The guy is practically out of the league at this point. If he doesn't turn things around this season, that may be just about it for his career.

2k doesn't really cater for the sort of mental demons Ben has. Plus people forget how good he was in his first few years in Philly.

Physically he's a 6'10 point guard with incredible lateral movement and speed. How do you make someone like that not dominate in a video game? They almost need to reduce all of his scoring tendencies to 0.

ben simmons even with his current rating of 78 is a superstar in 2k. his size paired with his ballhandling and crazy athleticism (his Speed and lateral Quickness is over 90 if i recall it correctly) is just too much for this game. He can best anybody Off the dribble, and as soon as you get close to the paint He triggers insane layup/dunking Animations


in 13 seasons in our league (since nba 2k17) He averages 21 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists on 69 % from the field.

Please go back to re-read my initial post, then re-read your response. Make it make sense.

Bingo! My point exactly! My squad are the Nets, and I don’t even play with them on the game because it feels unrealistic with him on the roster.

A mental lapse/breakdown should fall under the IQ attribute.

Rudy Gay, JR Smith and many others…

There will always be that guy who is a lot more effective in video games than he is in real life.

I feel like I’m cases like Ben, that’s where the consistency attribute should be key.
