That interests me too. I think no one knows it, because no one responds to such a question.

Strength for sure. Leave the rebounding to bigs and SF. You need strength so you won't be a weak little b.

I use a PG Slasher and he is a beast on offline play. Definitely my favorite character.

I also have of slasher. The relentless finisher badge is still messed up but I have a high IQ so I can still pull off a B+ and up.

I average around 7 points 3ast and I would say 3-5 shot attempt's per game unless my teammates are super passive in scorers.

I just played against a 95 ovr post scorer in pro am and dominated him with my 88 ovr paint protector

I've been exclusively in the park and it was literally only that post scorer that I've come across, let alone kill me with a move inside. I can count on one hand the amount of times I've been scored on by my match up 1-on-1.

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

Post scorers are only as good as their teammates, I play with a great PG that gets me the ball, but the people around me sometimes will post up behind me while I'm already in the post or run to the corner where I'm at which drags their defender with them. If you have the shooting around a post scorer, you're on an island with them and if they're good they will abuse you, and if you get help they will/should pass out to the shooters. Some of my other teammates try to get me to cut to the rim too much and think my guy is an athletic finisher.

Yep I'll admit: the post scorer I went up against got great position on me about 4 or 5 times but his teammates preferred to go one on one with their man.

I actually haven't got the renlentless finisher badge yet. I do finish well at the rim. Honestly I score most of my points off the dribble with pull ups and step backs. I unlocked the difficult shots badge and pick and roll maestro. Having those adds a little bonus to my shots as well. I even shot good from the three point line.

I played against my friend at the park who is a post scorer and he got me like 1 game and i got him the rematch

It hasn't really affected me this time . But I got so many other badges that raise my finishing ability (acrobat , difficult shots , tear dropper , post badges ) so idk if that matters .

this is on my LDD so he's not badged out unfortunately. My layups near anyone went to ALL F's... vs without the badge id be at a C+ to an A


Ridiculous. hold the button down for like 12 seconds and still get a Too Early? its really irking me cuz i was just saying that the layups were going in sometimes on SS/HOF so i was happy

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

Hey yall. I have been reading this forum for a couple of hours and decided to ask yall if I should make a 6'5 or a 6'7 LDD PF. I already have a 6'8 LDD SF, but I made his wingspan the shortest for his shots. I didn't think the max wingspan increased anything, because I figured they would have showed the increase when you are making your player. Big mistake, because your shot only goes up a few points.

I will max this PFs wingspan out this time. I will probably make him the lightest weight, just like I did my SF. I guess I will need to focus more on raising my strength if I'm going to be smaller and not put anything to 3 pointers. Maybe max out shot off dribble to increase shot close. It sucks cuz I pretty much got all of the badges and 95 overall with my SF, but at least I know how to get them and the +1 practice attributes now.

It took me like 9 full days to do all of that with my SF, so I can grind 1 more time. I believe there are 25 upgrades in the mycareer that you can unlock because I filled the attribute meter 2 more times after the 25th upgrade, but there was no upgrade available to use. Yall probably know that already, but I wanted to mention it just in case. So what do yall think about the PF? Thanks in advance.

Think that's too short for a PF ? Are you taking him to the park / pro am? I recommend 6'9 at least. I think 6'7 is really good for a SF. But I'm sure you'll do fine either way. I agree on a defensive player max his wingspan .

Dang man . I hope this gets fixed asap. I did get a glitch in one pro am game where all my skips were automatically F grades with no shot meter even moving. It even affected my free throws. Hasn't happens to me since. Shame though

Probably more park than pro am. I will be using him more as a SF. I like the PF badges better. I know a 6'5 PF would be crazy fast, but idk how well that would work out for rebounds and battling in the post against someone bigger. Do you know what I should do with my shoulder width to increase my chances of blocks/rebounds?

Max shoulder width for max wingspan. I don't think you should go with the lowest weight if you want to guard bigger players though.
