2K needs to do something about ProAm bots, as it's getting too annoying to play against them.
First of all, I believe that for ProAm mode you should have 5 players, and not only 3. Have fewer than 5? Play Walk-on! However, 2K decided that we can have 2 bots, but they are way overpowered.
The biggest problem is sloppy rebounding, I believe. There are so many misses that cannot be grabbed by a human player as a player simply refuses to grab the ball. If bot is there, he will pick it up everytime! As a human player, you will just be an inch away from the ball and refuse to pick it up, no matter what you do. The center on my team is a 7'1" glass cleaner and although he is a beast on the glass against human players, he will often lose the rebounding battle against the bot, even though he is in a better position to grab it.
They are also incredibly good at intercepting passes! If you try to make a deep pass to the person that's guarded by a bot, it will most likely end up in a turnover. They just have incredible reaction time and will intercept it without breaking a sweat. Just earlier today, slasher on my team who plays mostly off cuts, was held to 6 points because he had a bot on him. We tried to pass it to him and stick to our gameplan, but we ended up ignoring him on the offense as he had a bot on him. We won the game, but I doubt it was fun for him.
Besides incredible reaction time, you will have bots who are slashers and who make 3-point shots. Their rating is probably higher than 55, but it's still ridiculous.
There are some teams who play with ProAm AI on purpose for these things, and I believe that it should be fixed. There is no way that bots should have such an impeccable reaction time and that teams benefit from it. If anything, teams should be penalized for not having 5 players, not rewarded.
Bots are supposedly 55, but they don't play like 55 overall players. Even if they are 70 (like last year), they play way better. The worst thing is that they are able to do things that human players are not.
