    Every archetype of pg can get 15 levels of defense while a lockdown defender can't get 15 levels of ANY offensive stat. That is a pretty stiff limitation. Of the offensive ones they do get the top 2 are layup/dunk @13 and post scorer @12. while all of the most important IMHO perimeter offensive areas playmaking/3pt/shoot of dribble are under 10.
    Great find and great points.

    I prefer 2k16 because I could freely use the max amount of bars which was 20. I could decide how much of the 20 I want in each bucket. Now the bars in each bucket are capped too lol

    Every position should have inherent abilities they are average to above average at by default. The lack of attention to this detail is exposed in your post here.

      Pardon me 😲

          PG Shot Creator tho 3 pt shooting is low to start you'd need the bronze badges to help but thats the closest to Dame Dolla

            From the looks of it, honestly neither one of those will represent Curry. Comes down to do you want elite catch and shoot abilities from mid and 3?(Sharpshooter) or more of an inside the 3 point arch, off the dribble game.(shot creator)
            "I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." - Michael Jordan

              i would go 6ft pg shot creator and learn your shots timing really well to best create steph

              sharpshooter IMO, is more Klays game - hope that helps

                    You can't make anyone on the Warriors in mycareer. If you make a sharpshooter then you have trash agility. If you are 6'8 like Klay your shooting suffers for some odd reason, you're slow and you can't play defense. If you are 6'11 like KD you can't shoot as well as a 6'3 guy, you can't finish at the rim like KD can, you're slow, can't rebound, you can't do anything. Forget Draymond who's good at more than 2 things.

                    You can probably make some of their bench players though! can't wait! Hell you can't make ANY elite 2 way player... at all... all elite defenders can't play offense... i guess that's realistic somehow?

                      I don't see how. Lillard is all those things and a top notch defender as well.

                        If you want a good defender you can only play offense like Tony Allen.

                          You hope. I'm betting a notch or two less than Tony of course you might be better than Tony rebounding, there's that.

                            Right we can't even make solid NBA players who can't even make the all star team lol. We can make specialty bench players. We can make guys like Channing Frye lol.

                              And if you make a guy great at rebounding somehow there's no chance that you could be a good dunker too lol.

                              how underwhelming and over-hyped this is.

                                Someone streaming made a lockdown PG and his layup maxed was going to be 80+ (stream was bad quality so I couldn't see second number clear)
