Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?
Thinking about a Post scoring playmaker PF, around 6"11 230/240. I previously made a Sharpshooting Athletic finisher. It was fun, but I cant shoot lol. Time to try my back to the basket.Comment

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?
Whenever I play Pro Am as a big man, the second I see my PG leaking all the way down the court after I get a defensive rebound instead of coming back to get the ball is the second I know he has no IQ whatsoever and that I should just dribble the ball up the court myself, hand it off, then set a screen.
Because I know that's the only way to get some movement happening out of either the offense or defense.
Whenever I bring my PG to Pro- Am I can immediately tell who can and can't play team defense. Whenever I see a big man drop back deep into the paint repeatedly when his man is screening me is the second I know it's going to be a long game, because now I know the ones who are supposed to be anchoring the defense has no defensive IQ whatsoever.
Most don't understand the concept of switching. Most don't understand thr concept of show and recover. Most dont even understand how to stop contact dunks from happening (at least the slasher contact dunks. The big man contact dunks you can't really stop at the moment unless you have rim protector and leave your feet to block it. If you put your hands up you're getting dunked on because 2k will subtly move your player out of the way so that the offensive player gets better positioning).Comment

Idk if you guys follow witnessgaming on YouTube , but they are posting maxed stats for all builds . This is possible due to a PC hack if I’m not mistaken.

Bigs can cover to much ground on defense(they are too fast)
Late contest on laups matter too much.
Random blocks doing pumpfakes.
Leaning shots for guys who have catch and shoot badge should be removed.Comment

Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?
I’m a big myself and have run big since 2k14 and if you ask me I think that 90% of bigs are just plain horrible, selfish bums.
I can play 10 Walk on games and LITERALLY may not find one other big who CONSISTENTLY utilizes pump fakes, drop steps and spins correctly. Like the skill gap on bigs this year is horrible. Last year all you had to do was drop step spin and turn around fades. This year its harder and a lot of bigs are horrible. You dump it down to some of these dudes in the post and they can’t sense a double team coming at all. Or most will do that pump fake once then go straight up move. There are so many bigs that don’t even pump fake it is ridiculous. I got a center on my friends list who is pure trash. He consistently scores as many points as the number of shots he takes. He uses no pump fakes no post moves NOTHING. He goes up wherever he gets it and if his matchup is small he has a good game and if his matchup is good at all he sucks and we’re basically at his mercy.
I always try to tell bigs that knowing when they pass will make you a post god. Sometimes the D your facing flat out will not let you shoot. Iv already had plenty games this year where I have only like 5 points in the first half but I also have 10 boards and 6 assists. As a post scorer Your not gonna drop 20 against everyone. Its just reality. Some bigs really need to get that through their thick skulls. If your a center and Your not averaging 3-5 assists per game your doing something wrong flat out. When I play I usually start off being ignored by my guards but eventually they trust me because I don’t shoot every time I get it in the post. Iv been able to easily keep my ppg around 20 this year and I play with mostly randoms.
Last year I had a max height weight post scorer and when I was teamed with a trash big I was basically screwed because I couldn’t score outside the post. This year I made sharpshooting my secondary even tho I didn’t want to because I didn’t want to be handcuffed offensively like that again.

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?
All rebounder archetypes give me issues
The one that’s consistently given me issues is the slashing rebounder.

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?
i'm def interested in a build with rebounding....v interested in defending/rebounding....the rebounder/finisher is probably more fun/sexier but i'm tired of getting dunked on all the time and i'm wondering if having pure defense or defense as a primary will help me control the paint more or if it's just the way the game plays this year....my slashing post scorer is max height/weight and he gets dunked on with ease....Comment

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?
Crazy mixtape, I especially like the defending parts of it!
Can you shed some light on what tiers your defensive badges max out at?
I have a 6'5 Pure SC who can't dunk even after patch, so I am looking into what to do instead. And since Park is so damn laggy I am looking into a more driving build.
6'6 Shot creating Slasher (Slash first, decent midrange, good athlete)
6'6 Two way slasher (full on dunking with good defensive caps)
6'6 Slashing Shot creator (sort of in between, kobe build)
The 2 first are very similar, very fast without the ball. The first is a bit more well-rounded on offense, while the build you have seem to lack midrange.Comment

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?
I have a max weight and height defense/rebound and it seems to get dunked on anyways. 87 with silver rim protector & defensive stopper and not much seems to change. I usually have great position on the inside and the big man contact dunk animations just take over and move you out of the way with the only the slim chance to stop them with a foul.
Also the offensive incompetence is just flat out annoying. I've never been an offensive minded player to begin with but I would enjoy being able to score an open layup. I have a hard time scoring at all against other bigs unless its a dunk from an offensive rebound.
...or then again maybe I suck, who knows?Comment
