You know the game is best reward for NBA 2k17

Create a Team by selecting at least two team members (each a “Team Member”) to participate in a GameDay game (each a “Qualifying Game”). Team/Team Owner can enlist up to four Team Members, all of whom must meet the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 2. Participation requires three (3) to five players per Team. If there are less than five players. In pursuit of that, the newly released patch is more focused on the bugs that are found in "NBA 2K17's" MyCOURT, MyPARK, and Pro-Am modes. NBA players have a long history of jeopardizing their careers with face-based battery.
Even a pacifist like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar kicked off the 1977 season by punching Kent Benson in the face; Kareem missed out on twenty games and his third consecutive MVP. In ’85, Larry Bird hurt his finger sucker-punching a man in a bar; he shot 46 percent in the playoffs, and the Celtics fell to the Lakers. (Not to mention: MJ, Kerr; Kobe, Samaki Walker.) The Clippers, meanwhile, defeated the reigning-champion Spurs in the playoffs last year and looked to be at least third in the top-heavy Western Conference this season. Now experts are wondering which of the Clips’ big three is most expendable, and the trade rumors are a-swirlin’.
ESPN asked the people at NBA 2K to run 50 simulations of this season. In those simulations Steph's scoring averages paled in comparison to his real-life numbers. Why? Well, if you've ever played NBA 2K17, you know that the game does its best to reward video game players who play the game the right way. If you run plays, swing the ball around, drive and kick, look for open shooters, your team will make shots. But if you dribble a ton with one player and then just jack a three, the game will punish you by making you miss those shots. This is typically a good thing for accuracy, because that's how real basketball works. Ball movement and running sets will lead to better scoring than simply jacking threes with defenses in your face.
For now at least, it looks like the other gameplay modes of "NBA 2K17" will remain unaffected by the arrival of the latest patch. Stephen Curry's play hasn't just redefined scoring in the NBA, it's seeping into everything. Some are blaming Curry for the decline of youth basketball as kids who "want to be like Steph" are jacking up shots from deep and passing up layups, while his ludicrous accuracy from deep could force an overhaul of the NBA 2K series all together.
Forbes broke down the problem with Mike Wang, gameplay director for NBA 2K17. He explains that trying to balance the game around three-pointers is ruined when trying to accurately represent Curry's play. As for what the new patch does specifically, one of its new features is the addition of Player of the Week and Player of the Month listings to the MyPARK leaderboards. The new patch is also addressing a few bugs, including one that previously allowed players to wear mascot outfits even though they were not qualified to do so just yet. Closed a loophole where the pause timer would stop counting down when sitting in the ‘Report Image’ flow.
Improved the user interface when applying contracts to players in MyTEAM by removing the display of how many contracts the player would have IF the current card was applied. Fixed a case where the user accepting an online invite would sometimes skip the position selection screen in the way into matchmaking. Headwear should now properly unequip when attempting to do so from within the MyPARK Apparel section of the store.
