Do you keep all the other brands shoes you purchased? Also do the contract levels start over?

Yeah I kept all of those shoes, which is a pain to find the right Jordans at times. It just resumed on the same tier as I was with Adidas

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread

I'm one game away from All Star weekend. I have been playing alot better on Superstar. Feel like it allows me to play like how I played last year with a lot of points in paint. But, I haven't been attempting many jump shots at all last few games.

With Daily Bonus today and VC from past 2 games, it really shrunk the amount of VC I need to max player to 89. I am at 87 OVR. I need 17K VC and only ratings I have left is Pass, Post, and Stamina. I could get that in a few days with Daily Bonuses and VC from games. I am 1-2 drills away from maxing Catch and Shoot to Silver. I don't really take Corner 3s so I will work on Pick and Pop next. I have 35% in current Cap Breaker. I am about 10-13 games away from next cap breaker to get to 90 OVR. After I max it to 89 OVR, I will still have a few games to spare. So I will buy some animations. Need better dunks

As the 4, you should be operating out of the corner and the low block mostly.

I try to play through the offense. I don't get left open in corner at all when I'm in the corner unless someone else is doubled. I probably take a corner 3 once every few games unless I get a transition corner three. As for low block, I do take advantage of switches. Love when I get a small PG switched on me. It is usually a easy basket If I back them down in the paint.

Since I maxed Bruiser and Brick Wall to Gold, I have scored more often. When I set screens, now it forces other defender to commit sooner allowing me to score off of screen and rolls.

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread

In 3 days I have almost 80k vc saved up lol I might push it back to HOF for the last month and a half if the season and playoffs just to get that extra half percent and hit 92 before the offseason. Me coming off the bench is the best thing that’s happened to the team. LeBron and I finished the last game with triple doubles, LeBron with 25, 10 and 14 and me with 20, 11 and 13. Butler ended with 21. Ingram with 20. Porzingis with 28 and 10.

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread

I started a Post Scorer Slashing Finisher. 89 overall. The game is pretty easy up until HoF and then some cheese kicks in and it's pretty difficult. Still make an impact on D and usually win the game but it's not as fun so I stick to Superstar.

Season is half over and we have only lost 5 games, tied for 1st in the west with the Spurs.

Averaging just over 30 ppg, 15 rpg, and 5 assists. I got bored because every game is kind of a repeat of the next... rolled a Sharpshooting Playmaker PG and it was fun up until joining the actual NBA, now I can't seem to break free from my defender ever. I can use pick and roll to some advantage but beyond that it's pretty difficult to score effectively. So thats about all I do. I can't really play effectively on HoF on this character so the grind is extra slow...

One of the worst things about all recent 2Ks in the magnetic CPU and the lack of blocking fouls. I abuse the pick and pop with Porzingis lol and so does LeBron with the drive and dish. You just have to be careful of the overwhelming boost to illegal screens...which only seems to affect user AI as the CPU will walk around setting screens until one of you defenders runs into it.

The lack of blocking calls is one of the main reasons I have no real desire to work on Charge Card. I haven't seen any charges at all and maybe 1 blocking call heading into All Star Weekend. I'm certain the drill is easy to complete in practice because I used charges to complete the rim protector drill. That drill you could easily take charges to getting points instead of going for blocks. So I'm sure charge drill should be simple to where I should get it in 2-3 practices at most. But I don't really see a point of trying for it

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread

Played the final game before All-Star weekend. I maxed Catch and Shoot to Silver. Working on maxing Pick and Pop to Silver. That drill is super easy to max. You don't need to make a shot to get 3 stars. I am halfway there. So it'll take me 11 more drills(3 practices) to max it, less if I work at it in games. After that, there are only 3 badges I want to work on. Maxing Deep Range Deadeye and Corner Specialist to Silver and maxing Mid Range Deadeye to Bronze. That is my goal while working to get the next cap breaker. I'm at 41.5%. I'm at 87 OVR. Only got Pass and Stamina to max out. Only need 15K VC for that. After that, I can get animations while working on cap breaker.

As long as I can get at least 30K MyPoints per game, I can get at least 5% per game. At 41.5%, that'll take me 10-12 games. I'm not playing the full season if I can get to 90 OVR. I don't care about getting Rookie of Year or DPOY. I will sim rest of the season once I unlock the next cap breaker and upgrade to 90 OVR. Wish I could control what upgrades unlocked next. I would want 3pt, Mid Range, and Layup(so I et to 70 and unlock more packages). The last one I think I got Acceleration, Post, Lat Quickness, I think. So hopefully, it is ratings I actually want. I'll play with Marcus Young on the Elite Team in Rising Stars. I'll get the chance at a preview of next season. I have loved playing with Kemba, but I think Young is the better fit because of his willingness to slash. After I get to 90 and suggest the FAs I want, I will sim until the last game of the season and play until I can sim to finish. We have won the last 5 of 6 games and only 1.5 games back. I don't actually want to make the playoffs, I don't want to have to start each game and have to sim. Once I accomplish those goals and sim to next season, I will take a little break from this game. There are other games I have been holding off until I got to 90

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread

6’5” 215 lbs., Shot-Creating Slasher

PG for the Suns, about 35 games in.

18/27 badges, most on Silver, Posterizer on Gold.

So, after playing off and on since release I just hit 89 WITHOUT spending any cash on VC! It’s funny, now I have more VC than I know what to do with and it will only grow since I’ve maxed my attributes as far I can and can’t spend on anything else (wish you could buy MyPoints with VC lol).

Frustrated after this last cap breaker. I was hoping it would give me my last slot on Dunking so I could get to a 90 Driving Dunk and finally get that Athletic 360 animation.

Right now, I’m focusing on grinding my Free Throw Ace and have about 15000 to go for Gold, I can’t believe I’m only shooting 50% or so from the line with a silver badge- WTF is that about?

I’ve played mostly on Pro (AS here and there) and lowered minutes to 9 to make my stats a little more realistic and finish games quicker. We’re doing well but it’s really all me- I wish my team was better. Booker and Ayton are both acting shook out there along with everyone else who just does not want to take initiative, constantly giving me the ball right back. Also, the PnPop with Booker never works; defenses hardly ever collapse and screeners stay well guarded. I’m considering leaving after this season, would love to play for my Kings but was also thinking Pistons, Knicks or a team with potential that needs a PG.

Not looking forward to the small increases in cap breaker percentage getting to 90 although once I get there, I should get my final dunk slot (the excel sheet says I get no dunking after 91). Really want my mid-range to increase (still got 3 slots) because they’re not dropping too well and only a bronze Mid-range deadeye is not helping. I can get Difficult shots to Silver but I don’t even have bronze yet because the criteria to trigger it is super strict and the drill is impossible if you’re not a 3-point shooter (I’m not) so this badge stays laughing at me lol.

Think I’m going to All-Star now since I’m getting better and my numbers are getting a little ridiculous (I regularly score 50). ASW is not too far off and I’m surprised I still am not in the dunk contest (I’m #5 out of the 4 who can participate). I don’t know how I can qualify more than I already have been, I’m catching bodies and finishing oops all over the places. Lastly, I’m trying to get my fans up so I can get my top tier shoe deal and NOT have to pay the 10,000 VC for custom shoes I create. I’m on my way to the final tier with just under 1.5M fans, I think.

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread

I also have a couple shot creating slashers as a 6'6 SG and a 6'4 PG.

I made the SG first andwent to the Mavs to play in the right spot for the line up. As a SG i didn't get Dimer, pick and roll maestro, lob City passer, or flashy passer. So i could and did put up 40 a game with 2 players with 80 passing rating and vision and it was a blast. The problem was i was so good at playing off ball with 2 playmakers that i was actually hurting their production in points. And without those badges i had to work extra hard to keep my assists up and my points down. The problem was almost every posession they ran plays for me.

So i created the 6'4 PG with the badges and even tho i wish i could slot myself at the 2 so DSJ could guard the 1, I'm a much better defender than he is, and it frees him up to use his off ball speed.

In my second season after winning the championship i started DSJ at the 2 and he put up 35 points. I've been able to maintain his Average PPG in the 20s but Luka Doncic is the one who i struggle to keep his points up. It seems DSJ and i can basically take on anyone by running them off the floor. Break away dunks are a regularity with us. Doncic isn't as fast so i literally have to defer to him on purpose a lot. Sometimes it's literally one of them goes off for 20 in the first half so i have to force feed the other in the second. I play 12 minutes so i have plenty of time to do it.

The main issue yet again tho is keeping my points down.

You say you're having trouble with your pull up game? In career I'm butter from mid-range. Online, not so much. I only have a moving rating of 70 and difficults on bronze but I'm halfway to silver.

The best times to shoot middies is on the break. Straight up Westbrook style. When you get a turn over or a fast break, try to make an effort not to go for the easy slam. Sure, no matter what you'll earn progress for One Man Fastbreak. But, that's like 200xp per. In order to really get your badges and your mypoints up, use a pull up or a floater/euro on the break. If you're 2 on 1, i still go for the assist. But if I'm by myself or 1 on 1 on the break I'll pull up or floater/euro.

Also, there are set plays for guards to run pick and roll. These are much better scoring opportunities than CALLING for a pick because you can take advantage of the defense organically.

In a set play the CPU defender is reacting to a number of things VS an ISO screen situation since all other offensive players are spaced. This gives you multiple reads every time down the court. Doesn't mean the playcalling system is perfect z because it's not. But there are certain situations that i truly excel at in the Mavs system.

Example:

Dribble handoff top of the key to center/pf, i cut around he gives it back. Opportunity for a switch, no switch? Next branch. Continue to dribble handoff at the wing to the SF, stand in corner.

Wing pick and roll with the same PF/center. If the PNR fails, the SF passes to me in the corner. I can go baseline, shoot, or run ANOTHER pick and roll from the corner to which, if all else fails on this play, my THIRD OPTION is a perfect situation to roll to the midrange for the leaner.

Essentially, i don't get MY butter play till the THIRD read. The first 2 opportunities usually create SOMETHING for either my C/PF/SF before i HAVE to make a play.

And even then, me settling for a mid-range the last part of the play doesn't even have to be that way. 9/10 times i could blow past my man at any point and obliterate their center. But i CHOOSE to run the plays and make the good reads so i can see DSJ and Luka get theirs.
