Can post moves get you bruiser HOF?

Don't know for sure but I assume so. I know I see the bruiser badge activate almost any time I score around the rim if there's contact (pretty sure just driving to the rim, would count towards bruiser)

Pretty sure the only way to get it is by setting good picks , that's how i got it (as well as bronze level on all other characters).

If my calculations are correct (assuming you played all 82 games) you had averages of
40.78 PPG
29.1 RPG
??? APG
??? SPG
5.6 BPG
14.45 Made FT per game
6.63 TO per game
I will be aiming to try and beat these(except the turnovers) in my PF LDD MyCareer mentioned above. Im wondering what archetype+position etc you used for this?(i would assume 7'3 glass cleaner)

How come with the sneaker contracts in MyCareer, sometimes you get the shoes for free and others you have to pay for them? I just started a new career and I signed with Nike, and I have to pay for a all the shoes. In my last Career, I signed with Nike and didn't have to pay for any of the sneakers.

It depends on your Compensation level. If your level 1 you don't. It think level 2 you get all the shoes for free. Level 3 is your signature shoe.

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread

I signed with Adidas endorsement and it started at level 3. It says that it includes the Custom Color thing. How do we unlock it to get the custom color shoes?

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread

Finally created my Playmaking PG. I made him 6'3 185 pounds. I went to Kansas and won each game. Throughout each game, I maintained a lottery pick status. I wanted to be drafted by the Pelicans, but no luck. My secondary goal was to be drafted to team who needed a PG. But no, I got drafted by the Raptors at #9. I rather got drafted by the Bucks at #10. That would've been a nice fit.
I'm sure I will like this career more compared to the sharpshooter. But, I definitely don't want to stay on the Raptors. Mainly because I don't me and Justice starting over Lowry and DeRozan. I don't want to request a trade because I know the story with Justice will still go on even on different teams. Most likely will wait until Free Agency and choose a different team. But if I wait until Free Agency, good chance me and Justice will start over the current starters. So, I might just request a trade. But, I will wait until I get right to the point where I am getting over 30 minutes a game. If the worst thing is dealing with story, then so be it.
I really only have 3 choices of where I would like to be traded. 3rd option is the Bucks. Nice young talents with Middleton, Parker, Greek Freak. So, I wouldn't have to be a elite scorer. Only issue is that not enough shooters. 2nd options is the Pelicans. Have AD and Boogie, elite scorers. But that's about it. Only subpar shooters. My 1st option is the 76ers. A young team, but promising Talent. Simmons, Saric, and Embiid. Have Covington on the bench as a shooter. By time I a get traded to them, good chance they have a poor record. So good chance they get a lottery pick and young talent. So, that's my top option after game 30

You can request a trade with Justice if you want to keep the story going on with him.
Watch out though I did the same that you're planning on doing, 84 OVR PG/SG, traded to the kings, end of the season Justice pulls a Durant on me by leaving to the Warriors (with Durant going to the Brooklyn Nets 2K wtf?)
Decided to go to the 76ers during free agency to only realize freakin' Kyle Lowry signed there too, now I'm switching between playing SG for 20-25 min per game and the rest of it (roughly 15 min) playing PG. They also drafted another rookie PG who is taking time off my PG play in game.

I might do that then. Because with Lowry and DeRozan, no need for both of us then. I wouldn't be too upset if Justice leaves at end of season. I liked playing with Justice. But as a 6'1 SG, he is pretty much a disadvantage against taller SGs. And he pretty much plays like a 3 and D player.
But if I am able to have him go to 76ers with me, the starting 5 will pretty much be set. Me, Justice, Simmons, Saric, Embiid. Just have to grow chemistry. And potential lottery pic

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread

5 games in to my PG career, it was a slow start but last game was a better. As with my other PG careers in past, I always had a problem with turnovers . Most of it comes from me always playing to aggressive. Especially with this one, I try to make a impact to boost minutes, but just end of playing out of control. So the 5th game of the season, I played more in control. I only ended up with 2 turnovers in 18 minutes. But even those could have been easily prevented. It was a good overall game. I ended up with 9 points and 7 assists, missed 3 Free throws.
So, I will continue to play under control. But I definitely need to boost Mid Range. I saved up a ton of VC and maxed Playmaking at the beginning. So, I thought I would be able to dominate in ISO. But without the Anklebreaker badge, can't rely on that. Mid range only goes to 78 when maxed, but with the boost it would be 83. That would be good enough to take advantage of open looks and off of PnR.
Still plan on requesting trade when I get to 26+ minutes. I am at 15 minutes now

Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread

Tried so hard to get draft by the Hawks. 5 different 6'11 glass cleaner center. On the fifth try, I got draft 22nd by the Hornets. 2 games played and I Already don't like playing for the hornets. They don't like to pass the ball. But I was hoping to form a partnership with Kemba by staying with the hornets. Is that even possible with Justice on the team? Will Justice start over Kemba once I become a starter?

This is one of the random +1 you get during practice events.

You participate in a certain amount of practice events and eventually you get a random +1 to one of the following: Draw Foul, Intangibles, Hands, or Shot IQ
