The NBA 2K players I know are either going for career mode, or MyTeam (gathering players into an imaginary league) or online street basketball, so these three modes are 2K22 MT the focus for this analysis.

As in previous years, street basketball is somewhat different than indoor basketball. In part, because you play 3-on-3 and therefore have more space and also because all players in a street game are controlled by people and not by the computer. But also because 2K is adamant about giving street basketball a more arcade style.

The game's matchmaking is excellent and generally you take on teams pretty evenly match-up. Your player score isn't the most important factor, but more important is how intelligent (or dumb) you are. It's embarrassing when you're paired up with someone who doesn't defend, but just is looking to score three points, however, you're bound to be in that.

Street basketball looks slightly more polished than last year's, but above all it feels like you're in a bit more control over what your player does. The previous versions of 2K22 let you be stuck within an animation that had to be played before you could move on. This is much less of a problem in 2K22.

A variety of brand new game modes have been added to MyTeam. For instance, on Cheap NBA 2K22 MT the internet, you can play MyTeam Draft, where you must choose some players you do not have in your collection. The game is a considerably more exciting than it was prior to.
