i see alot of youtube guys saying centers are better than power forwards because they get more defensive attributes and similar stats. That might be true but Power forward and center still feel completely different when you play with them

i just dropped 50pts/19rebs/5 blocks on my 7'0 power forward reb / sharp (overall tryout level was 86) it felt way better to play with movement wise than my center version who was also 7'0 and around identical weight.

im going to stick with this build i made its perfect ill be using him as a center though despite it being a power forward

if your looking for a sharp/rebounder,lock id go Power forward version. UNLESS you want the extra 3 attributes you get as center.

Im pretty sure PF gets more attributes, if you go 7'0 Center, and 7'0 PF, you get 383 atrribute points for the center and 405 for the PF

It's really inefficient and kinda frustrating you have to sacrifice optimal badge availability to hunt down a specific takeover. If there's another way to get it, I'd love to know.

I lowered driving dunk and that replaced the slashing takeover with shot creator . Also changing wingspan and weight affects it . Not sure exact numbers though. Can’t decide if I prefer shot creating or defending

On another note made a cool melo build using the shoot/ finishing chart . Focused heavily on maxing post attributes . Post scoring takeover .

Difficult shots , deadeye ,and deep fades HOF.

Space creator gold . Contact finisher gold with relentless and pro touch gold .

Nasty build really. Might run it at 6’9 for a SF or small ball 4.

Hopefully has better D than Melo😁

Obviously depends on any possible changes but a few builds I'm looking at

6'6 Pure Playmaker PG Max Wingspan, 86 Ball Handle and 90+ Speed with Ball means Tier 3 Dribbles and Launches, basically a shorter version of my 6'10 Pure Point Forward in 19 but with decent off dribble shooting with mid/high 70's in Mid-Range snd Low 70's in 3PT.

6'5 Playmaker/Lockdown PG Max Wingspan, Tier 3 Launches and Tier 2 Dribbles, 87 Driving Dunk for Elite Contact Dunks, HOF Floor General and Defensive Leader, lower shooting however.

6'7 Lockdown PF Max Wingspan , basically Draymond with Elite Contact Dunks, roughly 80 Speed with Ball, very low shooting ratings.

for that reb/sharp build the center gets 3 more attributes they can max out in under defensive/Reb which gives them 23 totaL while the PF version is limited to 20 but they got 1 extra shooting badge giving them 18 but the center build gets 17

thats what i was really talking about not overall upgrades

intimidator us a must for all builds.

unpluckable a must for post bigs and ball handlers.

I am not sure about intimidator for perimeter defenders.

Clearly depends on how many def badges you have, but probably I put clamps and tireless defender ahead.

I would prefer to stop the drive rather than contest it.

However, it's sad that you have a bunch of offensive badges for boosting jumpshots and 3s, and none defensive badge designed for contrasting them.
