If my Center has high strength, would increasing weight be pointless?

Made a 7'1 Center defense primary, slashing secondary. Maxed out, I'd have 91 strength at only 270lbs. Only reason why I don't wanna increase weight is because it slows me down.

Strength is only used if you know how to use the post well. My glass cleaner has maxed 99 strength and weight is 300lbs. The higher weight you have, the slower lateral quickness you have on defense and speed. Thats why i didnt make him 340lbs.

I disagree, the badges are the most important. I'm 245 but can drop step and post spin anyone with gold and silver badges.

I made the Center. He's pretty dang good. 7'1 270lbs and much faster than most centers.

There was a couple of times I got dunked on, but proper position and usage getting defensive stopper and rim protector will stop that.

And Pure Stretchs are barbeque chicken. Lock them down on defense then back them in the post on offense.

Well you’re wrong because my GC doesnt even have any post scoring badges like drop stepper, post spin but i can drop step like a pure post scorer. Randoms in pro am automatically think im a post scorer but when i tell them im a GC, they are like wtf?? How?

Depends on your play style. I maxxed out my C 7'3 340. Reb/dunk I dominate inside like Shaq. When it comes down to it, alot of C is about getting inside position, so youre gonna wanna be the biggest dude on the block.

lol. all you need to do to get inside position is rim run. run as fast as you can to the middle under the basket. and hold the charge/pick button so the defender can't get that defensive animation on you. then release it and move the right stick and it will grant you the inside position EVERY time and you can also get the outstretched hand animation for the over the top pass. its cheese like swiss cheese. but everyone who is supposedly good. does this same move. its virtually impossible to stop in most scenarios. the only chance you have is if you didnt just score on the other end or if you were not deep under the basket when the ball went up. so not to give your guy a chance to run out on you.

truthfully the only thing stopping this is solid team defense. a guard thats already half way back has to bump that big and pick him up until you get there. while you cover the guard so they cant just chuck up a wide open fast break 3 ball.
