    I'm currently working on expanding the rules and trying to go into more detail to help members and owners understand what we are trying to achieve here at LG.

    I'd like to open the floor for you guys to give your opinions or ideas for changes.

    All will be listened to staff, some may be utilized, some we may ask for more detail, some will be put on the back burner.

    This is a brainstorming post to help make this league more enjoyable for all members, all posts should be :eek:n topic, constructive, open to criticism and questions and most of all,productive.

    Any posts off topic or against what we're after here will be removed.

    So go ahead guys, fire away.

    I mean during this offseason we can hold a 3v3 mycourt tourney. That'd be fun.

    Sensitive topic here but the "cherry picking" needs to be stopped. During an offensive possession there were too many instances where 1,2, or sometimes even 3 players simply took off past half court as soon as the shot went up. The big problem here is that the person shooting the shot has no chance to even get back on defense because of the shot animation. So the argument of teams "not getting back and sucking at defense" is not viable. I believe some type of rule should be in place that forces all players on the defensive team to not start crossing half court until the ball has at least hit the rim. My hope is that this would encourage teams to actually develop some sort of half court offense, thus allowing more players to be involved as well.

    Side note: It would be wonderful to see teams play differently. As of now it's basically find some man flying into the paint, usually a big man, and then go up for the dunk. Rarely do you see teams have much ball movement or get their entire team involved (T'Wolves had the 5 pass rule though last season thanks to @trost24 ). Not everyone who signs up here is great at 2K and I think what deters them is their inability to do well at first. As far as achieving this it would be up to the owners to implement a playing style for their respective team. It's unlikely I know, but wishful thinking!

    Cheery picking is extremely easy to stop. If you're the 1-3 & you don't shoot the ball you run back. It's rare that the PG, SG or SF will get an offensive rebound. Once the shot goes up just run back lmao

    How bout you guys play defense instead of : shot animation begins and 3 guys go flying past half court before the ball even hits the rim?

    Agreed cherries need to be kept within reason. Every once in awhile is cool that's basketball... But you don't see a team do it the entire game nonstop

    If you have a gold or silver break starter you gotta use it.
