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

    I'm most likely going with 6'8" SG min weight PM/Slasher for park, If I can find a decent pro-am team I'd need a 3-ball

      On both those builds it says 8 gold badges so some secondaries will have gold presumably. I think that where the primary and secondary are similar in terms of the skillset some badges are higher tier.

      For example Defending/Rebounder has HOF Rim Protector and Bruiser, Pure Defender gets Gold Bruiser whereas Pure Rebounder gets HOF Bruiser, Pure Defender gets HOF Rim Protector and Pure Rebounder probably has silver Rim Protector.

      Rebounding/Playmaking get HOF Break Starter, Pure Rebounder gets HOF Break Starter and Pure Playmaking SF's get HOF Break Starter

      Driving and Finishing gets HOF Posterizer, Acrobat and OMFB, a Pure Defenders dunking is equal with rebounding for its 2nd highest skill after defending plus it has max athleticism and strength.

        I'm thinking of going 7'1 or 7'2 Post/Athletic and be a beast in the paint. I'm a bit worried about grabbing boards but I'm hoping that with size and strength I could hold my own. Kinda like Shaq. I just like the idea of being able to post up or cut to the basket equally. I know my defensive skills would be lacking but sometimes Big Man D feels more about the sticks and timing than actual stats.

          What are your thoughts on post/glass and pure post scorer

            6'8 LDD / shot creator or shot creator LDD
            6'10 athletic / LDD
            7'1 LDD / ??? ( rebound or post )
            For that lineup, I would go with LDD/Shot Creator. It fits in nice. Focus heavy on defense and hopefully it has silver Mid Range badges for spot up looks. Assuming that the PG and SG are taking most of the shots, it'll be best to focus on defense

              I played a 6'11 GC last year and was a menace in the park if I was teamed with shooters. I was smaller than a lot of the other bigs but I burned them in transition a lot in the open court. BUT my total lack of offence on anything but open dunks made it tough if my teammates were trash. I also got pushed around sometimes in Pro-am by bigger dudes and found my speed advantage to be not as useful with less space. Because of that, I like the idea of Post/GC. Gives you some offensive skills while still being a bully on the glass. I'm less stoked about pure Post because it seems to rely a lot on others feeding you in the post regularly. Probably really nice in offline but not so much online unless you always know who you're playing with. I'm debating between Post/Athletic, Post/GC or Athletic/Post myself.

                    This is ignoring his ball handling ability to dribble the opponent

                    Shot Creator first and Playmaker second for Kyrie.

                    I'm talking for a NBA career offline Kyrie style.

                      Everyone is so obsessed with offensive badges and perimeter builds, A gold lockdown will be VALUABLE because all badges that are HOF will be useless if guarded by a defending specialist

                        So how do the Badges work? Do they pick out what badges that you're able to upgrade to HOF/Gold etc? Or can you choose which ones you want to upgrade? And do they set out which badges you're able to get or can you get any combination of badges in the game?

                          i guess in prelude i try post/shot creator(6'11-7-7'2).i think this will be very good on offense.

                            Huh ? You know the picture is comparing the stats of somebody's myplayer to the stats of Kyrie right ?

                                I mean that's this era of basketball in a nutshell. Teams value 3s and spreading the floor like crazy, it makes sense that majority go for those builds as well.
