Uncovering the Hidden Controversies in NBA 2K25

Image
In a video that quickly grabbed the attention of the NBA 2K community, a well-known commentator shared his firsthand experiences with what he describes as rigging and unfair mechanics in NBA 2K25. With a mix of frustration and candor, he dives deep into the game's hidden systems, such as the so-called “slingshot effect” and “reverse RNG,” that many believe are designed to level the playing field—but perhaps at too high a cost.
