Pro Am Builds For 2k19

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

Thats gonna be my next build for ProAm. You got him at SF or PF? I might go 6'10 PF for the gold rim p and hof defensive stopper.

C gives you HOF rim protector though, but you lose a few from HOF/Gold. If you make the the same size the attributes are practically identical between SF/PF/C.

The smaller centres/pfs are slept on, the lateral quickness you have is insane for that size and you can still push people around. Once you get the badges your inside game is serviceable too.

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

I was thinking making a 6’11 rebounding athletic center.
Gets good badges, gets dunk packages..
Gets defensive silver badges

Just worried about getting snagged on

I have one and I don’t get snagged on. The worst I’ve gotten beaten was from a 7’0 Glass Cleaner and that was like 15 to 12. Most games I win the rebounding edge, including against 7’3 guys. I had a 27 rebound game last night in Rec.

How is your offense

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

Is there BIG rebounding difference between... a 7-3 two-way reb'r, and 7-0 reb'r with secondary slash or post?

It’s way more about who gets to the spot first this year and boxes out effectively. My experience is the extra speed allows you to get to the spot quicker and the increased vertical somewhat makes up for the lack of height.

If a rebounding archetype gets takeover, it’s over though. They literally just toss you out of the way.

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

This thread is way too long when in the end you should just make a sharpshooter, the shooting is so broken that anything other than a SS is losing basketball.

Ehhhh... inside scoring is kind of tough this year honestly. It’s really difficult to finish in traffic and the paint gets pretty congested a lot of games. I can have some big games if people hit me in transition as I’m outrunning my matchup or if they actually pass to me while I’m cutting to the basket with speed.

Maybe it’s just me but often standing layup animations feel painfully slow. I get guys jumping on pumpfakes all the time but it feels like with online lag and slow animations, they still manage to contest on their second jump.

I average like 12 points a game on 70% shooting but I very rarely force the issue. I also always play with total randoms and a lot of games I only get 4 or 5 shots up.

He’s kinda right unfortunately. Right now if you make a Center, on a good team you might as well be a glorified snagger and pick setter. It’s frankly much easier to score as a jump shooter than a dunker.

I have it at C, and it's perfect

pilon is right, I can pretty much switch onto ANYBODY and keep up. I'm still getting used to showing/recovering hard on picks, had some success last night picking off some passes but also could have played other situations better

I rarely feel like I'm too small/light

looks like PFs get gold pick pocket and pick dodger, and a bronze free throw badge.....I would still take the center though


Also I have yet to miss a jump shot! 2/2 now!
Somebody left me wide open at the elbow and just stood there at the rim. My jumpshot took like 10 seconds to get off but I made him pay for disrespecting my range!!!

Sharps are easy to guard unless they have someone setting a screen for them, in which case, all you have to do is switch that screen, and then they can't make any kind of contribution on offense.

If a sharp tries to dribble or do anything besides catch and shoot, then it's a free steal for his defender.

And on the other end of the floor, sharps are a major defensive liability.

Every team does need at least one pure shooter, but a whole team of sharp primary archetypes is a bad idea.

Especially this year, when there are so many archetype combinations that can hit threes without having any sharpshooting in their build.

Lol thats why I was debating between PF and SF but not C. I tended to go PF because I like to block and PF gets gold rp but I might go C now. Thanks for the tip.

Yep, thats what I like more about the PF vs. C. Hard decision...

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

The 6'8" pure shot creator is a lot better build than the 6'6" pure shot creator, because the added height helps your shooting, post offense, rebounding, defense, and passing. The few attribute points that you lose by adding two inches of height are insignificant.

The 6'3" pure shot creator is a good build too if you want to speedboost, but I wouldn't make that archetype at any heights besides 6'3" and 6'8".

Pure shot creator is also a build that needs its badges maxed out to succeed on offense, because its ratings are good all-around, but they're not great in any stat except for mid range.

And once you get all of the offensive badges maxed, pure shot creators become pretty beastly on offense, plus they can hold up alright on defense as long as you don't go too low on your weight or wingspan.

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

I slash and shoot stepback js better than catch and shoot/post up with post scoring shot creator

I really need to step my post game up so i can be the full threat that he is. I having an issue shaking off old habits and disbeliefs about the post game because of 2k18 and for some reason i can't get my up and under to come out right.

Like I'm a far better post player with real nba stars but with my myplayer I'm bootycheeks

I think its because i mentally don't have a identity for his post game and i don't know what real nba player to copy

The post game feels delayed or slow for me online . Idk why

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

Also anyone else make a pure lockdown sf?

I made him 6'10..he has around the same speed as my shot creator who's half a foot shorter.

So I know I can keep up with pgs even. Meaning I can effectively cover most 1 thru 5..now if I play someone proficient in the post it'll be a problem..and obviously I can't outboard a glass but I do get over an 80 rebound.

Literally made this dude just to have fun when I play jrc with randoms...just to be nuisance
