I think one of the rewards should award you a bronze badge of your choice that you don't have

Does it matter if I'm only 77 in future years? I know I can get stats with him, but will the AI decide not to play me if there's a higher tath pg on my team? Also does the 77 rating impact my future contract? (Ie would i make more if I were higher rated?)

I only know of performance from the previous season impacting your contract value.

Video I said id do yesterday


If you are on a mobile device tap the arrow in the top left corner. That will take you to the video.


As you can see i love attacking from triple threat on the perimeter with my pure post and the post hops are definitely underused by the 2k community. You literally never get ripped on those

Ppl with shot creating and post scoring can literally do every move i have in that video. Notice i didn’t do one drop step or attack directly off a post spin.

I do those moves obviously but i didn’t wanna show moves that everyone does. Using these moves not even a 99 pure rim protector can hold you


This is why I’ll always say pure post is the best big man archetype and has been for years. Also all my post badges are on gold

Nice, always great so see a fellow pure post working it. How do you do those hops on the drive though

Crazy that I'm 6'7 and only have an 86 speed with ball as a pure point forward.

I think speed and similar attributes drop off drastically after going above 6'5.

I’m actually not 100% sure on those. I wanna say tap x a certain distance away from the rim. And also that animation i happened to get on that post spin kinda gave me a lane to get to the rim right off the hop

Iv been tryna practice that hop a lot but i don’t think 2k even gives that animation if your defender is in good position.

I especially liked that Fade into up and under.

How do u control direction after up and under?

I usually press left stick diagonally upright/upleft, with the right stick to the hoop side for the layup.

Still end up going wrong sometimes though.

It's like usually i feel what's right, but if i conscious think about it and try to reproduce the move consciously, i always fail.

I try my hardest to aim it left and right correctly with the stick. Still get blocked or contested a good amount tho. I’m trying to find consistent ways to beat that spamming Y in the paint defense and somehow blocking me

Like on that one move where i was baseline faked then went up to the right and almost hit the side of the backboard i did that one on purpose. 2k is granting a lot of blocks for bad defense so someone told me going up with the correct hand matters A lot more than last year.

Yes, that Goes for all layups and 1h dunks.

I usually try to go for direction with space, to avoid nasty bodyblocks

When I'm not playing with my Playmaking Slasher or Pure Playmaker with my Park and ProAM crew (I'm at 90s for both respectively), I'm looking for random builds to play in MyCareer. Anyone played with a Rebounding Playmaker build (for PG or SF). Was thinking of something like a Lamar Odom.

Honestly,I thought about that build around 6'10 SF. You get a 75 3 ball, a 70 on your dunk, and the 81 or so ball control should be enough to do damage. He won't speed boost, but I don't use that much anyways on my pure point forward. I get HOF break starter on my pure but those 3 inches and a 77 rebound with silver hustle rebounder would be much better at getting the board and getting it up court.

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

When does a shot creator primary, ball handle secondary at 6”7 height unlock 87 speed with ball?

My boosts seem to get used in Pro-AM games.

Whether or not boosts actually do anything is another question ... I wouldn't be surprised if they were placebos.

Not a placebo, but the matchmaking in the game puts you with other players using the same boosts so it may feel like your boosts are not doing anything because it's cancelling out.

You serious?! How do you know this for sure?

This might explain why it takes us forever to find a game sometimes. Lol
