I feel like post scoring in Pro Am is too hard

As a RP-PS Center, it seems like you have to earn the "trust" of you teammates. If your teammates recognize that you're a willing passer out of the post, some will pass the ball to you and try to get to an open spot while you go to work. In ProAM, it seems like EVERYONE wants to drop down and try to steal the ball from a player who's backing down another player.

I typically score off the spin move, drop step, and hook shot. For whatever reason, I can't grab a rebound then go up strong like everyone else. I always end shooting (and mostly missing) bunny shots at the rim.

I made a post shot Creator and pure scoring and they score when none perfect releases. Speaking of which, I've tried different releases already It sucks cause this build can play good defense and when I get another strength attribute I'll have 93, enough to lockdown 7'3 340lb bigs.

i've made plenty of builds, i like testing the thresholds of certain limits of builds etc. and i got a sharpshooting postscorer, odd build i know right, well its got 88 post game across board aka = hooks and fades, and man sorry to tell ya but that build ya got is gimped, ya been held back the whole year, im sorry for ya struggle, i scrapped that build early on in my process of getting badges for it the post game is just not rewarding in 18 to have that as your primary offensive weapon to your game, from the the tweets mike wang posted about post scorers this year being better in 19 though, so there may be hope for post scorers in 19 but man like i said sorry for ya struggle, musta been frustrating bricking all those easy post hooks and post fades bro

what the fudge.

never knew of boosts in pro am.

well that explains quite a lot

I really hope there's a game mode where you can't use Gatorade boosts or attribute boosts...


Those two things can make a world of difference. It's very costly to use, but there's a lot of people who don't have anything else to put VC in so that's where it goes.

I bet. After realizing that I became hopelessly 2k depressed. But because they are so powerful and essential, that's why I wouldn't use them. Dudes say you can max your dude manually and you can, but to be forced to boost is literally p2w.

I gotta say after smashing someone with a 60 in 15 or 16 and he sent me a message calling me a boosting (censored), I laughed and it felt like a great compliment. But I've never supported boosts. To know you need them is v sad. But maybe it means I'm less trash than I thought lol.

i think they should leave the boosts to park not pro am
