Re: NBA 2K17 Pro-Am Discussion Thread

Maybe you guys can help me out with something. In pro-am you get the most VC ( and rep for walk on) when you have a high teammate grade. The quickest way to a high teammate grade is assists, rebounds, good defense.



So why are there so many ballhogs and guys just trying to force shots?

People seem to care more about scoring than winning. They want plays for their my player mixtapes I guess [emoji849].

I played a game of walk on yesterday where I completely stopped playing offense. We were up 12, but the ball hogging ended up having us down by 20. I didn't even run up the court anymore, just played defense and got my teammate grade.

We're looking for a SG and a PF position if anyone is interested in a pro-am team. Add me on PSN: SolMJ-

Have you read real basketball discussions in a forum before? You'd be surprised by how many basketball fans are terrible when it comes to IQ and knowledge of the game. Many of these people also play 2k.

I hear on the microphone how dumb people can be as well.

After a couple games today it has got to the point where I actually win more when my teammates quit and it is the a.i.

Re: NBA 2K17 Pro-Am Discussion Thread

I'm so sorry to ask this because I know it's in here somewhere and I'm probably not finding it. But when does a Pro Am team become elite? I know examples of 20-1, etc. and obviously that's good and well, but is there a cut off? Meaning, my team is 51-41 now, still Pro. Is it a % of wins we have to hit? We've played teams that had 31-30 records that had reached elite. Can anyone provide clarity in some fashion. Thank you.

20 for elite 30 for elite 1 on a 2-1 win percentage.

Re: NBA 2K17 Pro-Am Discussion Thread

Is there any dedicated bigs available for walk on games on XB1?

My lineups are very guard minded and we don't really have that one legit 5 who loves playing the big man role and is a competent big who is able to compete against those 7ft builds.

I cannot guarantee we always will have a spot for you each night. We have a good group of guys that get along but I'd like to try and introduce one more to the squad who is a comfortable fit at the 5.

I'm not looking for an undersized big. A 7ft big is ideal. We already have enough undersized bigs.

Average age is about 25 ranging from 14 to 35. Only two guys are 14 and rest are in their 20s and 30s. We play live in Xbox parties.

Re: NBA 2K17 Pro-Am Discussion Thread

Im curious as to what sort of averages PF/C's on Elite level get, i assume rebounding would be low due to all the Sharpshooters splashing shots.
On the Elite 1 team i joined recently the Stretch Big C(team owner) averages:
19.3 ppg
6.7 rpg
3.2 apg
2.0 bpg
59.7% FG
54.8 % 3PT

As the PF PP/LDD i average
16.2 ppg
8.4 rpg
1.9 apg
1.0 bpg
72.6 % FG

Anyone having issues getting proam (not walk on) games to run? Since patch 10, my team has only been able to get one game a night lately.

Ya trying to get that rep up? Otherwise I see no reason to play walk on with full team.

I always get put at C with my 6'10 Stretch Big. It is hilarious how reluctant the other centers are to come out the paint to guard. It is either 30 point games or triple doubles every game. Walk on skill is so terrible that it doesn't matter what player you bring, if you good you dominate.

I don't have a C but I can play the 4 pretty consistently and my strength is pretty high so I can usually keep the 7'3 guys in check

I want to create a PF paint protector. What height and weight would you guys recommend for him?
