Turbo spam is killing me in RTTP.

I would think that if my guys get into the 70s in the energy meter after 5 straight minutes of play that his guys would be on the floor flat on their backs gasping for air, considering that I sparingly use turbo and this guy runs it all game.

Any tips to combat this?

User ur center until he gets bumped and is in a half court offense

[Biaxident]

Manually bring a big back into the paint after every offensive possession

Have high IQ help defenders (at least one at the 4/5) and a player with "Defensive Anchor" at all times

Try "Play physical defense" and/or "Protect the paint" POEs

Cut off penetration before the liftoff point, right stick contest, if you have to jump make sure to pull back on the left stick for verticality

Lastly, in general don't overreact to a player who is sprinting laterally around the half court; Switch off ball now and then to make sure your help is place

Good offball defence helps a ton, they will still draw nonsense blocking fouls time to time, that's just part of 2k. And yes ALWAYS turbo your center back after a basket made or fts, that part of the game is simply broken.

Oh gosh I can't begin to tell you how many times 2k bails out another guy after 22 good seconds of defense, only for him to play stupid Iso ball and for him to charge the paint at full speed, only for me to get the foul. And it's not like I'm even attempting a foul either, I just use hands up defense.

Protect the paint, get good defensive bigs, sag off all his centers and as many of his players as possible. I played a guy in play now online, he had Lebron at PG and was turbo spamming with him, and took him out for two minutes. He had some cheese buckets but i got stops and it was a easy blowout

Also, try to reduce your tempo on offence and play smart.

Go into your defensive settings and select "pre-rotate" off of either your power forward or your center. Even if he gets around you, your center will come up to contest.

To stop the people who like to turbo up the court after a made basket, all you have to do is control your center and guard the paint while sending a manual double team with the defender who's guarding the inbound passer.

By the time the inbounder finally gets across half court, the point guard will either turn the ball over by turbo dribbling it into one of the two defenders' bodies, or he will have to pass the ball off, which will reset the double team command and will put everyone back into a normal man to man defense.

For normal fastbreak situations after a missed basket or a turnover, your best bet is to have a fast team with high defensive IQ and a fast center with the gold chase down artist badge like Willie Cauley Stein.
