Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

Update on my 6'10 athletic finisher :

+I'm enjoying him a lot . Much quicker than my 6'10 PF from the past 2 years. Dude can just out the gym . The blocks are so exciting . Dunks are nice and good finishing ability .

- I would probably want to play with a center who is a glass cleaner or lockdown defender . I could get blocks but my actual shot contest could be better . Also I could get boards but I felt like I got boxed out easy . Maybe some ratings will help .

Overall I like this build a lot . I just hope I can knock down the open midrange in case I can't get to the basket .

Bro I feel like we are the same person sometimes lol. Also, the center I run with already chose glass cleaner so I'm good to go .

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

A lot of people say the restrictions are no fun cause they want to run around with a Blake Griffin, Dwight Howard, Shaq, LeBron, KD, or Dirk type of player.

Well the trade off to not being able to make that anymore is that nobody can really cheese online anymore and it's a trade i will make everyday

That is EXACTLY how I feel but for them kniccas that wanna be super-stars. Somebody should make sure a Dev sees my idea about that. I know soon somebody will jump on here and say it wasn't my idea but thats Okay. 2K CAN have that one FOR Free. I want them to get hooked on my IDEAS like im hooked on their game.

The first ONE/hit is always FREE. #CRACK

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

But you can make guys with like 80% of the skills the more one dimensional stars have. Athletic finisher is a lot like BG (not as good at passing, but just an average defender and ok rebounder like BG), Reggie miller is basically just a sharpshooter, The point forward is exactly like draymond except for the elite defense. You might lose a facet of a stars game but you can get pretty damn close unless you want to be Lebron

That's potentially where 2k doesn't have to do a thing. They can say look, the game is CLOSE to as realistic as possible but WE have to BALANCE it. That's why I said y'all have NO IDEA how hard it is to BALANCE AN MMORPG.

Go study up WOW (World of Warcraft). You have CLASSES just like you have ARCHETYPES.

NBA 2k17. "THE ULTIMATE SPORTS RPG" - It wasn't me who said it, so don't get mad at me...

It was just me who "pointed" it out. Don't kill the messenger.

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

Yes, i agree that this build has low strength and will be pushed out of position by bigger rebounders. But he can also jump twice in the time the bigger man jumps once, and he can outmaneuver them through agility in the 70s.

I think the tradeoff is worth it, but yes, low strength is something you have to be ok with.

I already theorycrafted this one in detail saying the exact same thing. Was my first one... you NEVER forget your first... LOL.. yea I want ALL the "bitches" I'm a "ladies" man.

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

Have ya upgraded ur player yet? that could fix most of the problems.Also 2k gave ya more stuff if ya hit the gym more.. check that out....

low key. Most of us ain't "hit the gym" yet cuz all we seen is the Prelude... PLEASE no spoilers. We have to wait like "regular" "law-abiding" people. No offense but karma might just getcha in the end.

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

If wanting to go 6'10 stretch big at the 4 spot, what weight do you guys think I should make him? I don't want him to be too slow but want him to effectively play the 3 and the 4.

How about the arms is everybody going short armed? Do you notice the short arms effecting your ability to alter and block shots?

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

Just made the same player . But 240 lbs . He is fun as hell to play with . I'm glad I picked him over post scorer .

Glad I could help, actually glad we had a collaborative discussion and you came up with something you like.

But FOR REAL. Here is an assist. YOU ARE THE ONE WHO STARTED THIS WHOLE THREAD. You the Real MVP. You deserve a build that works for and you and is fun.

I'm glad I saw it and commented it on it. And created this 155+ PAGES monster crack baby that has 80,000 views last time I checked. Plus you are the most humble between us so you will be more easily liked.

You the REAL MVP.

I agree with this.
If players wanted to be like those players they just gotta play at that level realistically.
You don't need a max pass rating to make the smart pass or a amazing defense rating to play good defense.

Scoring areas are different but taking what the defense gives you (unless you don't have a jumper) will get you baskets.

"Stretch Big" has me worried in terms of them being too effective. They have the same max midrange and 3pt shooting as sharpshooter PG and SG?

It should at least be slightly lower IMO...

I've always thought it was pretty wack that bigs took a shooting nerf on 2K16. You height should never determine your jumper.
Last year they had a 75 3pt and 85 mid. That 3 could be sagged off consistently and that's wack if you a shooter. Plus they give up the rebounding and defensive stats this year.

Stretch Big is tough.. I'm getting tired now.. just know they have Pros and Cons.. thats as basic. useless advice right... hahaha. Someone else please help this guy, Imma try and take a nap. Brains been racing, this ain't healthy YA KNOW. (jokin & serious at the same time) - I'll be back later. Ask your questions Imma take a break but come back, read them and answer them. Meanwhile there are a LOT of smart High basketball IQ people who can help this gentleman as well. We already covered this earlier in the thread but I know not everyone wants to go back to the beginning. If you do though I promise it's a great read. Like a book. I'm givin' ya'll crack to set up for my NEW BOOK. I'm "sellin-out" afterall. I was in it for the MONEY from the very beginning. LOL. Peace... for now...

Oh nicca, i can't wait until you talk to us AGAIN. ALL I am saying is, that YOU are coming off as a bit obnoxious, cause there are PLENTY of other people that can give advice, your acting like a bit of a know it all......but it is the internet and it is hard to understand people's intentions and you seem passionate, just try not to act like the king of the thread maybe?

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

I do wonder how a very small defending PG will do in this game. They will be I think the fastest players in the game so on transition and backdoor cuts they'll be pretty good.

Maybe if I make a second version of my PG I'll try that out for a few games.
