Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

After 2 years of post players, i’m also not feeling it this year.

Just said fuxk it and Made a pure slasher. Not the best build but everytime i poster someone i forget about all that.

Besides i can still nail the J and the occasional corner 3

Post moves seem really slow. Jumpers fire off in a millisecond, but by the time I do a drop step or spin, I've got 4 defenders surrounding me. I have to assume they get faster as you badge up? I only have silvers right now. When you are on takeover they are really fast.

my 6'11 pure stretch 4 is such a baby on defense that im about to stop playing with him. People just finish over or around him even when u contest it perfectly.

I haven’t noticed a big diffence from silver to gold . I will say at gold post spin tech I started breaking ankles as if I were in takeover. On dropstep Gold and Up and under HOF it seems like I can go up a bit quicker.

But they are no where near as strong as catch n shoot HOF .

I don’t even see pure post scorers use them a lot .

Exactly, lol im not using that soft *** baby anymore lol. Its only worth it if you can shoot over 60% from 3 which i can't so far.

Toying with making a pure athletic. Wondering should i go 7' like i did last year or if i should make him 6'10 for that 80 off ball speed.

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

A lot of times when I play in the JRC people are ball hogging and/or passing to their friends. I'm fine with that. My play style is weird because I don't like to shoot the basketball, but I love playing defense. I really want to make a pure lock because I think that would be the funnest playstyle for me, but I have seen videos posted by pure lock players that say it's damn near impossible to level their Defensive Stopper badge to HoF because they don't get enough points for steals and such.


The video I saw was made on the 11th and I know there has been at least one patch since then. Did they address this issue?

What do you guys think of a 6'6 pure playmaker pg in proam? Last year it was the sharp playmaker that ran most offenses but this year it seems like only pure playmakers can control the game like a real pg should.

They fixed the exp on defensive badges. Its still more of a grind than any other archetypes though so keep that in mind.

I have a pure playmaking PG and it's really fun to use in MyCareer vs the CPU, but it kind of sucks from my experience online because you can't shoot all that well and if you're playing with randoms they're more than likely not going to let you run the offense. Defense will be solid because you're 6'6" and going against smaller PG's, but it's pretty meh.


Now, if you go in with friends it will be a lot more fun because they will allow you to utilize your dimer; however, not being able to shoot very well from a guard spot is rough.

Good looking. I only run with a full squad and try to avoid randoms at all cost lol. The only thing that bothers me about this build is the lack of any kind of offensive badges other than the playmaking ones. I don't really care about my stats either as long as the team run smooth and get the W.

And why is that exacly? Does this build activate some kind of "switch" in user head that tells him how to run the offence?

I think that the best build for PG's is.... pure shot creator. It's tough to "control the game like a real pg should" when the defence don't have to respect your shot.

You talking like you can just leave a pure playmaker wide open. If I wanted a pure shot creator why would I make it pg over sg and lose out on gold catch & shoot and gold corner specialist? Cmon man

Re: Pro Am Builds For 2k19

People give PG's no respect in Pro Am because you can rip the ball like it's nothing. Dimer is a game changer but it's sad to see point guards so shook sometimes. Until it's fixed it's almost like damn, you should have just made a SG

I feel like most guards got so used to being bailed out by animations and badges in the past games now they are exposed for it. Just the fact of not being able to dribble through someone and still keep possesion has exposed most of the guards and on top of that you can't throw reckless passes like 18 makes it even tougher. Early release was a nightmare for guards lol
