sure the game got problems but saying it's top 4-5 isn't a stretch in my eyes - aside from 2k11, 2k16 and 2k17 there aren't many which you can consider really good 2k's in this day and age and we all know that the PS4 era kinda sucked aside from the early games they released.
2k22 isn't on the level of the classic 2k's but I would put it right under - definitely the best we got after those horrible years.
I don't agree with this at all.
2K14 and 2K15 were really strong releases for 2K, and the gameplay was talked about fondly by the large majority of gamers. Those two games were received much better than some of the more recent titles. 2K16 and 2k17 were received very well.
NBA 2K12 and NBA 2K13 were also received incredibly well, and I find that both of them overall play a better game of basketball > 2K22. 2K9 and 2K10 were also strong releases.
I already talked about the early releases of next gen that were successful - but anything that came out after 2017 was pretty much garbage ( and 2k16 was really the only great game).
Im really not gonna talk about the older 2k's cause I think people tend to be too much nostalgic with those games and forget the problems they also had - not to mention the difference in graphics and gameplay between them and next gen - and the only game that holds up for me from back then is 2k11.
All the other things you mentioned are criticisms of the company ( which are true) but not of the gameplay and what we talking about - you don't really talk about what those problems are. So let me critic 2k22 for
Blocks are fun in this game but maybe they should bring it down a little to make it more realistic
Mismatch should matter more and I dont wanna see Damian Lillard being able to contest a 6'10+ Big, it's just not something that happens
Under the basket or post game should be better also cause if you make a big that cant shoot all you can do is hope that your PG knows how to alley
AI should be more responsive to situations and just be smarter.
Contesting is still kinda iffy in this game - even if you are kinda far from the shooter and you jump it will contest the shot even tho by all means it should be an open shot.
I might even have more and there are still probably little bugs in the game ( not that I personally noticed ) but it's still the best game of 2k I played in years.
