Fans Point at “Crappy Business Practices” as Stephen Curry Gets Blamed for Ruining a Billion Dollar Earning Company’s Work
Follow Us
NBA 2K is by far the most successful basketball game in the market for more than a decade now. The game comes out with brilliant new updates and modifications from its previous year’s predecessor which always has fans on their toes. However, having a player with a 99 rating for three-point shooting may seem like a cheat code, but that is what Golden State Warriors star point guard Stephen Curry’s rating actually is. This led Ronnie 2K to claim that Curry has broken the video game but, NBA fans seem to feel otherwise.
Very few players or legends have a 99 rating in a single stat. Although, Stephen Curry is one of them with a 99 three-point rating in the game for quite a few years now. Arguably rightfully so as well, given Curry’s in-game shooting and everything.

Recently, Ronnie 2K appeared on the ‘CoolKicks’ podcast and had a long-spirited conversation about multiple things. One of them was Stephen Curry’s three-point rating on 2K.
Ronnie claimed, “The guy has broken our video game,” referring to Stephen Curry being an absolute cheat code in the game. Fans, however, did not agree with Ronnie and blamed other things that were wrong with the game.

Pretty sure the game has already been broken for years.
It’s clear Ronnie2K cares more about clout and fame than developing a good quality bball game. #NBA2K— SJ (@Persianhooper) January 23, 2023

I still don’t think, a guy who can’t make a left handed layup should be in charge of professional athletes ratings. But that’s just me

A majority of fans seemingly blamed multiple other factors in the game that they said were more wrong than just blaming Stephen Curry.

No doubt NBA 2K has been dominating the video game industry when it comes to video games for basketball. 2K absolutely pushed Electronic Arts (EA) out of competition over the years as there hasn’t been an NBA game from EA in a long time.
However, it seems as if 2K Sports has been taking advantage of the monopoly they have developed in the market with micro-transactions and a grinding process that involves investing hours into the game in different modes.
