RE: The Machine NBA2K25 Career Pt. 19 + 🌎My Thoughts on the Sports World Today🌎

I remember being a bit unhappy that Poirier went for the clinch during the final 10 seconds but he just did and interview and was asked why he did that and his response was "I didn't want to go out like Gaethje" lol. He knew he would not emerge victorious in such an exchange. Max has truly gotten new life breathed into his career. A year ago I would have said that Holloway was definitely on the way out. Can he win it all? No, I don't think so, but he is definitely one of the more exciting fighters active right now.
I think the last basketball game I enjoyed was 2021 or 2022 and the only reason why I enjoyed that was because I was playing locally with some friends and none of us knew wht the hell we were doing. One of our friends would constantly get the buttons mixed up and would be throwing up half court shots on a regular basis.
When I was playing 2025 the other day it found it difficult to so much as even get inside the pain. As a person whose first bball game was "Double Dribble" I don't really have the patience necessary to master all the buttons or deal with very real things like not being able to just run right through whoever is guarding you.
Yes that's true, I found it entertaining when Topuria invited Holloway to trade right at the opening bell in their fight lol. But yeah I think Max still has some good years in him for sure. I don't imagine Topuria stays in the UFC long, I imagine he might pull a Khabib and leave if he can manage to stay undefeated. If so maybe Max has a title run in him who knows.
Yeah 2k games can be pretty frustrating at times! Haha. But you get used to it after awhile. Some people use the right stick for shooting and dribbling but I don't do all of that I just run around and press square and time the shot release lol. Definitely tricky, but it becomes fun eventually.
