      but I'm not "raging" over foolishness, and I am having a lot of fun. They got me, lol

      at least some PNO Youtubers are speaking up....maybe we get our mode back.
      I was the same way in the beginning, then somehow I got that dang Superstar, prima dona mentality, lol. It hit me when I had a nice little stretch where I was almost averaging a triple double, but I was still losing. Now, I didn't get on the mic and yell at people, but I was definitely fuming aftewards.

      If it was a "real team", I would have demanded better teammates or a trade to a contender, lol.

        Yep, hook shot 3.

        Is it true your jumpshot selection can actually change the speed of your hook shot?

        I love how you fully acknowledge your descent lmao. I can see how dumb teamates can be especially frustrating for guards and wings though.

          it probably does.

          was considering going for a slower jumpshot to get more time to aim.

          which are you using?

                    Re: Matchmaking in Rec is awful.

                    Any recommendations for shooting badges for bigs specifically for Rec? I made a brand new stretch, have like 3 badges, 85 3pt rating with boost, I can't hit crap in Rec with wide open looks but hit plenty vs the cpu.

                      Catch and shoot i guess is the best to start with.

                        Flexible Release is also a good badge this year.

                          Priority badges(in any order)
                          Hof hot zone: massive boost on every shot. And your HZ from Career transfer over

                          Hof flexible release: works on slightly early/lates this year too, and the boost is massive. Must have badge this year

                          Hof corner: bigger boost than last year. Definitely as a big, works together with your hot zones

                          Range extender gold/hof: if you shoot from the top from deep, go HOF. If you’re more from the corner and know how to position yourself on the line well, gold is good enough


                          After that, depending on your remaining badge points:
                          Green machine if you got your timing down.
                          Deadeye for the close outs
                          Catch and shoot: the boost is worse than last year, but if you got badge points to spare, another 2-3% to your shot is not bad
                          Slippery off ball: slept on, but you can move around better

                          Not this year, the boost is minimal.

                            Dang thats a shame.

                            Got 6 shooting badges with no mid or deep range.

                            Got hotzone gold, deepfade silver and bronze dead eye.

                            With a what you said i think hotzone and flex might be better when also coupled with crosskey ...

                                Still playing NBA 2K20...

                                The one thing that just bothers me so much about this game is that it's easier for a guard to get a dunk against a big man, but a big man struggles just to get a basic layup.

                                Plus, I can't trigger a standing dunk to save my life.
