    I don't see how it's cheesy. There's obviously negatives to all builds, this one would be speed and initiating offense. Don't worry about if it is cheesy. Everybody you play against online has win at all cost mentality and will do every cheese in the book as long as they can win by 1 because there's no gentleman's code of conduct that anyone ever follows by. But this feels like one of the least cheesy builds, there's nothing wrong or cheesy about being a Patrick Beverly type.

      You will be better off making a SG so your badge can work on SF too. I've played as a LDD PG before and you are basically off ball all the time anyways.

        Which build would mostly resemble Westbrook? Slasher with a good mid range game, and a 30% 3-ball?

          I know nothing about badges, what do you mean by it working on SF?

            The defensive stopper badge for a point guard will only allow it to work when guarding PG's. If you're a SG-PF, the badge works on SG-PF.

              I'm glad that ratings cap at 99 this year(Even though we can't see them while upgrading, yet). So some hybrids will be better than expected if alot of people based bars off of last year attributes.

                Think I've finally made the decision the make a SC/defender 6'7 sg maybe 220ish maybe slash/def as a backup. Hope I'll run into some of you guys in park.

                  With attributes going up to 99 im liking my decision to go Pure Rim Protector. Presumably has 99 Block and Shot Contest plus the other defensive ratings outside of Lateral Quickness

                    ey the same build as me and rocky cept you are a SG not a SF, it will hopefully be one of the more well rounded builds and I hope the extra vert/strength/speed from the defender secondary will provide an offensive benefit

                      so does this mean people will be able to get any attribute to 99 ? even if it's outside of their element. for example, someone making a slashing defender can get there 3pt shot up but way more grinding of course.

                        What gave you that idea? I thought it was obvious that the only types that would get 99 of anything was ones who had 25/25 bars of an attribute.

                          No, only Pures can get their skill up to 99 as they have the full 25 bars, various builds could have 99's in athleticism.
