😭

[patent pivot]

i just have 8 95+

i never get builds to 99

[obsidian ridge]

I made I deleted the first one cuz I wasn’t grinding playmaking specialization

[patent pivot]

cant justify dumping vc into low stats

so i just make a new build

[obsidian ridge]

Looking I probably should’ve done it

[patent pivot]

i just did shooting spec and didnt bother with the other ones

[obsidian ridge]

I need mine 99 I need every stat max

[patent pivot]

even on my 99 three builds i use shooting spec cause im lazy

[obsidian ridge]

Yeah that’s a waste

[patent pivot]

bruh im not gonna grind another spec

lmaoo

[obsidian ridge]

I should’ve done shooting I’d have legend limitless and hof slippery

[patent pivot]

id rather have 1 less max+1 then have to spend 70 more hours

[obsidian ridge]

And I wouldn’t have had to grind season pass every season for plus 2

[patent pivot]

yeah i always just max+ my slippery

[obsidian ridge]

You could’ve just went 96 3

[patent pivot]

im talking about 94 three with 5 caps

[obsidian ridge]

Then you would’ve used 2 caps

[patent pivot]

i eie

i did

[obsidian ridge]

And had 3 left over

[patent pivot]

thats what im saying

lol

i just miss out on the max+1 and max+2 value

but not worth grinding another spec

i obviously use my 2 shooting spec caps on 3

[hazy mural]

really jokic

[meager acorn]

If you don’t shoot below 40% be quiet

[meager acorn]

Ametuer hour

[hazy mural]

?

[willow pike]

Any of you centers got high block

I need some references for center builds

Any of y’all got me

I just wanna see how you set em up

[radiant fox]

i got u 1 sec

@willow pike

6'11 / 216 / 7'5"

[atomic wolf]

I got one as well if you give me time to set my stuff up rq

[atomic wolf]

'

[harsh socket]

literally my biuld except lower ft/ pass acc and 3 caps

[patent pivot]

What the hell is this

[radiant fox]

my do it all big 😎

[patent pivot]

Do it all but pass

And rebound well

[radiant fox]

thats what +1 and +2s are for lil boy

[patent pivot]

💔

[radiant fox]

legend rebound and gold pass is does it all wym

[patent pivot]

But why the 97 block bruhhh

5 caps for no reason

Either go 78/84/88/93/99

[radiant fox]

97 if hof

[patent pivot]

Ig but is 93 not better value

5 caps for that kinda crazy

[radiant fox]

sure, i just chose to use my caps on block coz my build already does everything else so i went for defense

other than a 90 standing dunk which i didnt feel like i needed, there wasnt anything else to cap besides steal which is where my next 3 went

[radiant fox]

not really

+1 legend paint patroller i be shutting the paint down

[patent pivot]

but like

87 dunk, 87 pass acc, 88/93 block, 99 rebound, and 73 steal while sacrificing basically nothing

[radiant fox]

rec center doesnt need contacts but if thats ur playstyle thats cool too

[patent pivot]

dont gotta cap the contacts thats just for 5 extra caps

[radiant fox]

sacrificed close shot, interior defense, vertical....

[patent pivot]

83 vert is fine

HOF vs legend pogo

[radiant fox]

yea but 88 is better

[patent pivot]

put 3 caps on close shot then

84

and a 6'11 rec center pretty much needs 99 rebound

imo

and high pass acc

this would be with strength dropped to 72 like urs

[verbal vale]

Amazing

[radiant fox]

nah 99 d board is over rated u can easily have position and snag 90% of boards with a 92+ 2 for legend. same with pass +1 to break starter, its basically the same

My build is basically yours with better defense

[harsh socket]

90 works for me

and i get boards over 7'4's

at 6'8

[radiant fox]

this doesnt have giannis dribble style, its slower defensively, has far worse interior defense and doesnt get the 75 driving dunk packages or post fade phenom. pretty mid if you ask me. mines way more optimized

[radiant fox]

exactly. 99 pure D board is overkill hence why i lowered it to use my +2 on. even with just the +1 at start of the seasons its been fine tbh. could use +2 to get hof breakstarter for elite passing

[harsh socket]

just do 90 vert

90 dboard

80 oboard

and u can get 15 rebounds a game

[radiant fox]

i got 89 vert but yeah close enough. essentially what my build has

92 D.b 80 O.b and 89 vert

[harsh socket]

Not joking i got 30 boards once

[harsh socket]

same pretty much

[radiant fox]

not to mention with boosts and takeover you can basically have it all at 99

[harsh socket]

mhm

[radiant fox]

more reasons to why pure 99 is bit unoptimal imo but its not like its a bad thing, i just wanted to maximise my build defensively

[harsh socket]

yea

i got 88int

88 block

Lowk

my build might be insane

[radiant fox]

74 interior and 93 block is okay but you still get yammed on a ton. hence why i went for 97 block, demon like rim protection

[gilded lava]

Need crew trying to get more ppl dm me

[harsh socket]

mhm

my best ever statline

is 20-20-10 with 5 blocks

[radiant fox]

thats tough

[harsh socket]

thanks

[patent pivot]

Giannis dribble style is 55 haha

Not 65

You’ll barely feel a difference in 93 and 97 block

[radiant fox]

incorrect

[patent pivot]

You’ll feel a massive difference in 76 to 87 pass acc

[radiant fox]

oh u right nvm

[radiant fox]

if you dont use a +1 or +2 sure but with them its not a massive difference

[patent pivot]

No point in going 65 speed with ball imo

[patent pivot]

The actual attribute has a big effect imo

[radiant fox]

pretty sure it was just cheap af and was the last of my attributes but yeah i can agree on that one

[radiant fox]

for sure but 76 pass with Hof break starter is more than enough to throw consistent good pass'

[patent pivot]

So you’d rather have 97 block, 92 rebound, 76 pass acc over 93 block, 99 rebound, 87 pass acc?

[radiant fox]

yes because i optimized it around the +1s and +2s

better defense whilst not losing out on rebounding or passing significantly

[patent pivot]

You are losing significantly tho

And you’re wasting those +1s and 2s

[radiant fox]

nah

[patent pivot]

Could be used somewhere else

[radiant fox]

like what

[patent pivot]

Or getting those badges to higher levels

If you can find me one competitive rec center that has 76 pass acc I’d be shocked

[radiant fox]

^

[patent pivot]

On a 6’11?

Rebounding badges

[radiant fox]

the diminishing returns on hof to legend break starter is not enough to justify

[radiant fox]

i have all legend badges for rebounding

but if you had 99 rebound you wouldnt be able to use +1s or 2s on them anyway so that logic is flawed

now your just using +1s and 2s on wasted badges

whilst having worse defense than my build

https://tenor.com/view/meme-you-cant-outsmart-me-thinking-use-your-head-smile-gif-17109386

[patent pivot]

Break starter max +1 to HOF
High flying denier max +1 to legend
Paint patroller max +2 to legend
Dimer max + 2 to legend
Interceptor max+1 to gold
Off ball pest max+1 to gold

While already having legend rebound badges and 99 rebound as an attribute

[radiant fox]

dimer only gives like a 1-2% increase in shot makes, thats a horrible badge to +2

[patent pivot]

Ok then off ball pest to HOF

[radiant fox]

and justifying having worse defense just to put off ball pest on Hof is not better than purely higher interior defense and block with legend defense badges

[patent pivot]

Yeah but this would have better defense badges

[radiant fox]

nope

[patent pivot]

Yeah

It would

[radiant fox]

nope

i have defense spec for that

[patent pivot]

Legend patroller and legend high flying denier

[radiant fox]

i have that

[patent pivot]

While having higher interceptor

[radiant fox]

😎

[patent pivot]

And higher glove

And higher off ball pest

[radiant fox]

im gonna have Hof interceptor, glove is a trash badge. sacrafising all that just for off ball pest is not worth it

[patent pivot]

You won’t have HOF interceptor tho

You’ll have gold at best

[radiant fox]

nope

[patent pivot]

Yes

You have 60 steal

[radiant fox]

73 is silver +2 is hof sonny

[patent pivot]

You don’t have 73

You have 69

60*

[radiant fox]

look at caps it goes 73

thats hof with defense spec

i already thought of all this son 😎

[patent pivot]

Ok so equal defense

And much worse rebounding and passing

What’s the advantage there

[radiant fox]

not equal defense

[patent pivot]

Yes

Equal defense

[radiant fox]

you have far worse paint defense just to have a higher off ball defense badge 1 tier higher, thats not equal. rebounding and passing isnt much worse

and ur slower on defense too

you dont need off ball HOF on a rec center

[patent pivot]

If you can find a single person in this entire server that would agree that your build is better I would be very surprised

You are completely disregarding attribute ratings

[radiant fox]

im sorry but justifying sacrafising paint defense for off ball pest 1 tier higher is not worth it kiddo

[radiant fox]

nope, ive tested it multiple seasons

[patent pivot]

Sacrificing paint defense while having legend in both paint badges?

[radiant fox]

yea with like 70 interior defense thats horrid

yucky

[patent pivot]

77

[radiant fox]

thats so bad lol

[patent pivot]

It’s not

What are you getting from 88

[radiant fox]

oh so u dont play bigman, got it

[patent pivot]

Tell me

What’s 88 giving you

[radiant fox]

i get all of these badges with better interceptor excluding the dimer which is a useless badge

[unborn echo]

Theater 3s?

[radiant fox]

so idk why u think urs is better lol

its just mine with worse defense

trying to justify needing 99 defensive rebounding when you already have the positional advantage on defense. 92 is more than enough with legend badges

[patent pivot]

88 is only giving you +1 to paint patroller

From 77

That’s the only badge

[radiant fox]

^

take ur own advice

[patent pivot]

Yes so interior matters but pass acc and rebounding don’t?

Pass acc and rebounding are far more important

[radiant fox]

like i said, the pass and rebound are high enough to get boards and throw consistent good outlets

[patent pivot]

Especially when it comes to ratings

[radiant fox]

so its more optimized

with better defense

[patent pivot]

It’s not more optimized though

[radiant fox]

yup

better defense

[patent pivot]

I guess you can’t rlly argue with an ignorant person

[radiant fox]

does everything ur build does + is better defender

[patent pivot]

I’m just gonna let you have it

[radiant fox]

its not ignorant i have a lot of evidence in using the build but okay

[patent pivot]

Find me one person to agree with you

[radiant fox]

im not a sheep i dont need the validation from others to justify what i do

but you do you boo

[patent pivot]

Are you not a sheep or are you just arrogant

[radiant fox]

if you want to sacrafise defense to put more attributes into passing when my build already has consistent good passes, go for it. but you're just losing out on free defensive attributes doing that

[radiant fox]

its not arrogant if it works

[patent pivot]

So you have a control group

[radiant fox]

yea my previous builds

[patent pivot]

And you’ve done your own tests with those builds compared to this

[radiant fox]

yep

[patent pivot]

That’s definitely cap

[radiant fox]

ill show u

[patent pivot]

What r the “tests”

[radiant fox]

just to prove ur wrong

1 sec

[radiant fox]

day 1 build had 99 d board and 87 pass. ignore the rest of it, i know its mid

[patent pivot]

Where’s the test

[radiant fox]

the test is i played multiple games over multiple seasons on both builds

and found that 76 pass with +2s, and 92 rebound with +2 is consistent enough

[patent pivot]

Ok so you haven’t run tests

Lmaooo

[radiant fox]

to lower them, use +2s and raise the defense

[patent pivot]

You just played with them

[radiant fox]

that is testing wdym 😭

bro just refuses to accept that my build is more optimised

[patent pivot]

It’s all subjective you aren’t doing any controlled experiments

[patent pivot]

You don’t see the irony here?

[radiant fox]

i threw hundreds of outlet passes with 87 and with 76

if thats not evidence enough that its consistent enough then idk what more would convince you. seems you just want to be right at this point

[patent pivot]

I could say the same to you

[radiant fox]

like i said here ^

not really, i have hundreds of games played to justify why i did it

and i can confidently tell you that its not marginally worse the way i did it

[patent pivot]

You don’t have hundreds of games played on the build I showed you

You can’t compare

[radiant fox]

its the same stats, 99 rebound and 87 pass but okay

nit pick away lol

[patent pivot]

I’ll take +7 in rebound and +11 in pass any day

The contest boost from 77 to 88 interior is so small

[radiant fox]

^

the boost from 76 pass +2 to 87 pass +1 is also so small

2k labs has the actual statistics btw its less than 5%

[patent pivot]

Less than 5% on what

5% is a lot btw

[radiant fox]

on good catches vs fumbled catches

less than 5

its like 3%

[patent pivot]

Still a good amount

Across how many passes you throw

[radiant fox]

its like, 1 less fumbled catch every 10 games

[patent pivot]

With

Like what compared to what

[radiant fox]

vs having better rim protection against like 10 shots at the rim a game roughly

[radiant fox]

comparing the differences in pass accuracy and break starter badges

76 + 2 vs 87 +1 is like 3% which again, is 3 less fumbles over 100 passes. you're not throwing 100 outlets in a game, maybe 20 if u have really solid defense (which again plays into my point of having more defense) thats 1 fumble every 5 games to have worse defense

so yeah, ill take my build thats faster and has better defense but as a payoff i throw 1 worse pass every 5 games. seems like a simple tradeoff to make considering the defense will win you more possessions than that 1 possession every 5 games you lose

[patent pivot]

Then add +7 rebound and 3 less max +’s you’re using

[radiant fox]

but you couldnt find any other badges to use the +1/2s on

you said dimer and off ball pest

[patent pivot]

Legend dimer is a great badge

[radiant fox]

brother have you seen how much legend dimer boosts shooting

[patent pivot]

I’ve noticed consistently more shots made off my passes with legend dimer

[patent pivot]

It’s not insane but it’s solid

[radiant fox]

placebo

[patent pivot]

That’s not placebo

[radiant fox]

if you throw a pass with silver dimer and they miss the shot, having legend dimer isnt going to change the outcome 97% of the time

im not sacrafising speed and defense for the extreme low benifits that legend dimer gives

[patent pivot]

That math is wrong

[radiant fox]

bro you were talking about comp. a comp player shooting off of silver dimer vs legend dimer isnt going to make a difference nearly as much as having better defense will make over the span of a game

[patent pivot]

Also, that 2klabs test only focused on make% using a modded controller, they didn’t test green window at all

[radiant fox]

rec center doesnt have the ball on the floor enough to justify sacrafising defense for better passing. if im passing to a shooter, its usually because i drew help rolling to the paint and theyre essentially open/wide open

if a comp player cant hit an open shot, dimer isnt changing anything

[patent pivot]

And what about the pass speed?

Pass speed increases with higher pass rating

[radiant fox]

yup, and 76 has been fast enough to make outlets / find the open man when drawing help

ive used both 87 and 76 with +2s and theyre not that different. its consistent enough that i could lower it for more defense

[patent pivot]

I guess it depends on the person

87 is a big difference in my opinion

[radiant fox]

have you tried 76 with +2s

[patent pivot]

Yes

[radiant fox]

show the build

[patent pivot]

Also 71 with +2s

[radiant fox]

wtf is that

[patent pivot]

One of my first builds this year

Old screenshot

[radiant fox]

thats not a rec center build son

we talking about diff things here

[patent pivot]

I’m just saying I’ve max +2’d 76 pass acc

[radiant fox]

but we're talking about outlet passes

you arent throwing outlets on that build

[patent pivot]

I have

And I’ve missed a lot of them

Full court passes

[radiant fox]

you have a 55 rebound

you are not throwing more than 2 outlets a game on that build

[patent pivot]

Yes I get like 7 rebounds a game prolly

So maybe 2-3 outlets

And a lot are misses

[radiant fox]

i think thats just a skill issue at that point im ngl

but i think ur just capping to be honest

[patent pivot]

Nah they’re never missing on 87

Not never

But rarely

[radiant fox]

why would u use a +2 on break starter on that build when you have 55 d. board... ur just lying bro u never did that hahahaah

[patent pivot]

It’s a tier 2

[radiant fox]

hahaha whatever you say bro

if you need higher pass to throw outlets thats cool, but i can make it work consistently with 76

[patent pivot]

That’s good for you

[atomic wolf]

in what context?

[patent pivot]

We’re talking about rec centers

[radiant fox]

76 pass accuracy with +2 on break starter and +1 on V.V throwing consitent good outlets vs needing 87 pass

[patent pivot]

He’s saying 92 rebound and 76 pass acc is good enough for him

[radiant fox]

92 and 76 with +2s *

[patent pivot]

Mhm

[radiant fox]

apposed to 99 and 87 and using +1/2s on dimer and offball pest but sacrafising defense

[atomic wolf]

like 92 dboard and 76 pass?

[radiant fox]

yea

[patent pivot]

Yes

[atomic wolf]

with +2s?

[radiant fox]

ya

[patent pivot]

For a rec center 6’11

[radiant fox]

76 pass hof break starter gold VV 92 D.board legend badges

i also stated earlier that boosts and takeover boost them but even without that its still solid

[patent pivot]

I’m saying lower 88 interior and 97 block to 77 interior and 93 block, then raise 92 rebound to 99 and 76 pass acc to 87

[radiant fox]

without takeover im still throwing consitent passes\

[atomic wolf]

the lowest id probably go on a rec center is 87, specifically for the cap breakers

[radiant fox]

you also missed out on a ton of other attributes

[patent pivot]

A ton?

Like what

[harsh socket]

can i get a good luck on my exams tomorrow guys?

[patent pivot]

Of the “other” attributes

[radiant fox]

its slower defensively, has far worse interior defense and doesnt get the 75 driving dunk packages or post fade phenom

[patent pivot]

I had 13 higher steal

[patent pivot]

You can easily tweak that and keep the same values

[radiant fox]

theyre both 73 urs isnt higher

[atomic wolf]

gl, if you dont pass you gotta donate 100$ for my next build

[patent pivot]

Urs is 73 with caps

[harsh socket]

99 rebound aint worth it

[patent pivot]

3 caps

[patent pivot]

Respectfully you don’t know anything

[harsh socket]

nah mate i get 70's- 90's

[radiant fox]

LOL

[patent pivot]

Bruh he was just telling me to put 99 middy on my 6’11 😭😭

[radiant fox]

bro just refuses to accept hes uninformed i guess

[radiant fox]

oh hell nawh

bro is cooked

[patent pivot]

I’m telling you this guy is a casual and that is okay

[harsh socket]

nah

[patent pivot]

I mean it with the utmost respect

[harsh socket]

that was my fault

i forgot that i could do that

[radiant fox]

you calling people casuals but you cant throw outlet passes

[harsh socket]

but like i got 90 board

with 80 oboard

and i get 15 rebounds

per game

with 90 vert

[atomic wolf]

boo

[harsh socket]

and i have good offense

So likee

[radiant fox]

my build litterally does everything that yours does at a consistent level and it has better paint defense

[harsh socket]

70/50

[atomic wolf]

this one can be better

[harsh socket]

my defense is better

[atomic wolf]

I'm gonna rework this one rn

[radiant fox]

was aimed at pluto not u

[harsh socket]

my offense is slightly worse

[harsh socket]

ok

[radiant fox]

thats the way, if ur gonna 99 a rebound put it on o.board not d.board

[harsh socket]

pluto's build or rlly hit or miss

[radiant fox]

yea bro is not cooking with the rec center builds

[patent pivot]

The ones I make for myself in here aren’t comp

[radiant fox]

so unoptimized

[patent pivot]

They’re just for fun

[harsh socket]

i know

[patent pivot]

😂😂

On god

[radiant fox]

bro is talking about +2s on dimer and off ball pest

[patent pivot]

For real bro

[radiant fox]

on a rec center

holy

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-meme-trying-not-to-laugh-laugh-homeless-gif-9458928528704746136

[patent pivot]

I’m sayin

[radiant fox]

why would a 6'11 rec center ever prefer to have higher off ball pest than block

[atomic wolf]

idk about +2ing on 76 pass acc on a rec center

76 is good for park!

But not so much for rec or any sort of 5v5 scenario

[patent pivot]

93 block with legend on both interior badges sounds like enough to me

[radiant fox]

ive used builds with pure 87 and 76 +2 for Hof and its consistent

its just optimising the +1/+2s coz theres not a lot of other good badges to use them on

[atomic wolf]

i personally stay with 87 bc i end up getting caps on that which i want like break starter HOF or dimer gold so i can +1 or + 2 them to legend

[radiant fox]

as long as you dont throw stupid full court passes its very solid at 76+2

[patent pivot]

But being able to throw those stupid full court passes is valuable

[atomic wolf]

And before yall say anything, i KNOW you dont get Break starter HOF at 87

[radiant fox]

hey man if thats what you want to maximise im not against it, im just saying the boost from hof to legend is so minor, and theres not a lot of other good badges to use +2s on so i used mine on passing

[atomic wolf]

im saying the caps usually work that way

[radiant fox]

if you go for maximizing passing thats cool but i chose to maximize my shot contesting ability and paint protection whilst still having consistent outlets and rebounding

my build is a defensive demon

Legend paint patroller / chase down with 90 vert and 97 block... hof interceptor and gold challenger on a rec center is lockdown im telling yall

[atomic wolf]

6'9, 186, 7'2 wingspan SF?

[radiant fox]

for rec?

most of the time wouldnt it be better to run the floor for fast breaks and let your big get the board and throw it to you

sf doesnt need to be the primary or even secondary rebounder in rec

[atomic wolf]

i just seen defensive demon

[patent pivot]

thisisgonnabemynextbuild

[radiant fox]

yeah on top of everything else a big wants, its a demon on defense too

[patent pivot]

whydontmyspacebuttonwork

[atomic wolf]

remake it.

[patent pivot]

i alr have 9 builds maxed i need a fun one

99 middy 99 layup

[radiant fox]

this the dude tryna give build advice im done lol

this jit gotta be rage baiting atp

[patent pivot]

????

not every build gotta be optimized lmaooo

[radiant fox]

i refuse to believe you're being serious by now lol

[patent pivot]

this is just for fun

for theater

[radiant fox]

sure bro

[patent pivot]

?

[radiant fox]

tell yourself that

[patent pivot]

??

[radiant fox]

you only fooling urself twin

[patent pivot]

???

[radiant fox]

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-meme-trying-not-to-laugh-laugh-homeless-gif-9458928528704746136

[patent pivot]

what do u expect me to do with this build?

[atomic wolf]

i think it could work

[patent pivot]

use it in rec?

lmaoooo

[radiant fox]

lose games

[patent pivot]

whats the problem with it

its just for fun

[radiant fox]

😂

[atomic wolf]

but you definitely can do more with it while still having the same amount of fun

[patent pivot]

what could i do more

[radiant fox]

if having a bad build is fun for you then it makes sense why you took my build and made it worse

[atomic wolf]

what's the height, weight, wingspan?

[patent pivot]

6'5 214 6'6

[atomic wolf]

im guessing 6'8, 6'8. 185?

[radiant fox]

now it makes sense, bro is just a casual that plays for fun yet he was talking about comp

[patent pivot]

u cant get 99 middy on a 6'8

[atomic wolf]

alr brb

[patent pivot]

i have 9 max builds already

why make another comp one

ur not getting paid to win games

[radiant fox]

coz none of them are comp in the first place

[radiant fox]

actually i am

[patent pivot]

not rec games

[radiant fox]

yup

i get payed to play 2k

[patent pivot]

paid

[radiant fox]

same poo different smell

[patent pivot]

i make that same mistake

payed should be a word

[radiant fox]

spelling is not my strong point

my native language is te reo, not english

[patent pivot]

damn so many ppl from new zealand here

whats the 2k new zealand pipeline

i guess i shouldnt assume new zealand actually my bad

[radiant fox]

yeah its nz

u were right

[patent pivot]

i feel like its either US or NZ in here

[radiant fox]

te reo is the polynesian language of maori (the indigenous Polynesian people of New Zealand)

[patent pivot]

wait lowk maybe its because ive been staying up late recently

so all the ppl on r just in diff time zones

[radiant fox]

yea thats probably it, its 9pm here at the moment

[patent pivot]

dang

4am here

[radiant fox]

sheessh

why u up so late for

[patent pivot]

im on spring break rn

[radiant fox]

oh word nice nice

[patent pivot]

and i go to college out west so im not rlly adjusted

so it feels like 1am i guess

[radiant fox]

well i appreciate the chat cuz, im heading off so have a cruisey night 🤙

[patent pivot]

cya

@atomic wolf any luck

[atomic wolf]

wsp

oh, definitely some

[patent pivot]

its gotta have 99 middy 99 layup tho remember

[atomic wolf]

yeah idk about 99 layup but i got close

dont even go to 93 dd though if you want layups

[patent pivot]

no physical finisher thooo

or strong handle

or immovable

i originally had dunk but then i realized if im going for layups anyway then who needs dunk

[atomic wolf]

if you want 91 swb

[atomic wolf]

i was trying to build towards swb instead but going to 90 3pt kinda killed the build for playmaking caps

[patent pivot]

yeah

[atomic wolf]

alr now imma make your fat pg

[patent pivot]

what if you did no dunk

[atomic wolf]

then it would mess up your playmaking caps.

[patent pivot]

i just feel like these badges are better

the 84 strength gets a lot of badges and i feel like strong handle and immovable enforcer are underrated

[atomic wolf]

quit playin wit me before i give your fat pg 93 strength

[patent pivot]

lmaooo

85 would be the highest id go

for gold immovable

[atomic wolf]

keeep playin.

[patent pivot]

85*

[patent pivot]

i made a version with 97 strength

for legend physical finisher

but realized thats insane

my thing is though, if im using this build, having any dunk would mean i would be aiming for dunks most of the time

if i had any dunk id have like 75

[atomic wolf]

you kept playin

now your pg has 93 str

[patent pivot]

but he shrunk!!!

[atomic wolf]

nah.

You dont need to worry about that

[patent pivot]

u just made a 6'4 mid paint bully

[atomic wolf]

6'5 fat pg since you said something

[patent pivot]

6'4 center since u said something

[atomic wolf]

yk what-

[patent pivot]

max+2 to legend post powerhouse

[atomic wolf]

im giving you a challenge.

Make a minimum weight, minimum wingspan 6'4 that can get 99 3pt, 92 bh, 91 swb and still have great defense and finishing attributes

[patent pivot]

ok

[atomic wolf]

it should probably look something like this @patent pivot

or this

[patent pivot]

you didnt say anything about pass acc 😈

i feel like to truly have good defense on a 6'4 u gotta have 90+ speed and 85 perim

if u wanted pass acc

[restive crag]

this a good build?

[patent pivot]

forgot to add the 1 cap to vert on this one

[atomic wolf]

Not at pg

[restive crag]

you have any 6'7 pg builds?

[scarlet merlin]

Best way to lvl up plate gng

[atomic wolf]

Play.

What gamemode do you play mostly?

70 rebound on a guard is bit high imo how often U gonna be in the paint on Ur own competing with another rebounding guard imo

Also how many capbreakers U got my brotha

[prisma kelp]

[worn cradle]

yo i'm new to 2k, just playing mycareer and tryna have fun. rn i got like a 6'8 SG build cus i saw that it's the best on YouTube lol just wondering if it really matters tho cus rn im playing trashh

[prisma kelp]

6'8s are considered best height in the game overall but small guards get more attributes cuz they r shorter. if ur new ur gonan have to just practice dribbling, shooting, defense, etc

[worn cradle]

im just playing like the story mode

wanna be able to do everything and fill up the stat sheet cus that's pretty fun

[rare bronze]

Dm me if you need a lvl 30 crew top 200

[muted cliff]

Who tryna run 3s

Park or theater ion really care which one

[fierce fiber]

My crew got broken up any lv 30s with 3 spots?

[rare bronze]

Here

[crimson otter]

mostly mc and might play on some rec/1v1/parks or online stuff since the servers r active after I just recently bought it, so which one from the 3 builds should I run

or any adjustments

[rare bronze]

Dms

[prime trout]

I'd do middle one but lower Ur rebounding and get 90 3 ball (if possible)

[crimson otter]

how low we talking bout on rebound, and yea I can try getting 90 3pt

like minimum

till I get both bronze rebound badges?

[novel fulcrum]

dose anybody have a lvl 30 crew with 2 free spots ?

[winged mist]

Who tranna run it, I’m on a 6’4 guard with high three ball.

[muted cliff]

Bet

U on rn?

we js need a 3rd to run center cuz I’m on 6’8 but can just sit corner if u want me to

[winged mist]

Yeah I’m on rn

[muted cliff]

Aight my user is hygge_e

Son

[dusk matrix]

Didn't I answer you yesterday?

[open ruin]

idk

[open ruin]

yh u did mb

[dusk matrix]

You can but there's no point since it won't unlock badges or animations.

[open ruin]

i didnt see it though

yes there is a point

u get tier 3 dribble moves

u can do the lebron hopback

and momentum

[dusk matrix]

Tell me how you're going to put them on mid game.

[open ruin]

???

there not animations

nvm idk how to explain it to u

it does help though

[dusk matrix]

If they're inate ones that don't require equipping in your menu then sure

But yes you do get a +15 to answer your question

[spice hinge]

i had 60 pts 14 rebs 11 ats 2 blocks and 3 steals and lost it before🙏

[worn cradle]

is it normal not to be able to get any rebound with 6'8 SG

[dusk matrix]

Reb rating?

[worn cradle]

25 offensive and 40 defensive

but im playing the easiest difficulty

[patent pivot]

What

[dusk matrix]

Would not expect much. Good positioning and timing may net you a couple, but you won't win a lot of battles. Your teammates will likely pull down nearly all the defensive boards.

[swift bison]

Anyone need a crew member i play a lot

My 2k name is OnlyShoot3sss-_-

[turbid frigate]

i just got into 2k

joined 2s

winned some games

lost some games

doesnt matter

I've joined a game with a random ahh 6.3 guy and i was 6.8. And we got matched up against a 7.1 and a 6.10

[true sedge]

Who tryna play 6’5 pg

[turbid frigate]

this was just terrible, we were fighting FOR LIFE for that stop and give everything we got for a damn defensive rebound. And when we finally get a step this guy just misses a 3 ball or get a turnover

i've been screaming on him the whole game

i was tired a bit

[true sedge]

Who tryna play 6’5 pg

[turbid frigate]

And when we finally get a stop at 19-10, i miss a wide open fadeaway and leave tf out 😭

[turbid frigate]

feel kinda embarassed

[true sedge]

What server u

[turbid frigate]

PC

[true sedge]

Ok

[fresh crypt]

I need some center tips and sigs just made a build it's 6’11. Youtube videos are fine too

[dusk matrix]

Dribble moves are limited. Giannis crossover if starter 4 then KD or Pro for everything else.

[silver fox]

Did you see the

[worn cradle]

how do i change dribble moves

[remote otter]

go to animations

[crimson otter]

[novel tendon]

Do u guys tempo shoot or button shoot? I feel better with button shooting but my friend tells me tempo shooting is the only way?

[atomic wolf]

jail.

[atomic wolf]

depends on the situation

[novel tendon]

Wdym?

Can y give me one

[mystic nexus]

i like to button shoot when finishing layups around the rim and stuff, tempo for outside shooting

[fickle swallow]

More control using tempo for everything

[rare bronze]

Got a lvl 30 console crew top 200 lmk

[meager acorn]

Should I have won player of the game

Dang I needa clean my camera

[rare bronze]

Did pg win it?

[meager acorn]

Yeah

[novel tendon]

I gotta learn to get better with my tempo then, I can green with my button tempo weird

[novel tendon]

No one left the game???

[meager acorn]

Nope

[rare bronze]

It was really between you and and pg guess they gave it to pg

[novel tendon]

That’s acc rare

[meager acorn]

My matchup shouldn’t have even scored 8

My Teamate flopped and he landed on mp’s ankles and I fell so he scored a free three

Tried to keep him to 5

yes and yes

dm me ur user

Ok thank you

[obsidian ridge]

You gotta be trolling

[obtuse smelt]

Im him

[chilly prairie]

Wym

I have not looked at the js store this year

[atomic wolf]

SLOW

[autumn anchor]

I’m on a no money spent build is 68 overall good to start in park

[glacial seal]

Yo

[obtuse smelt]

with wrong motion style slow

[atomic wolf]

If you aren’t 80 to 85 don’t even touch the park

[obtuse smelt]

this build keeping up with everyone

[autumn anchor]

Ok

[glacial seal]

Who need a 2k ac

[autumn anchor]

Me

[leaden birch]

Anyone a comp gaurd

[obtuse smelt]

78 speed

[tranquil fulcrum]

Verts what matters there

you have legend arial, so i imagine you have legend poster and a 90+ vert

[obtuse smelt]

before i took off gang

80 vertical

93 driving

aerial hof

+1

[tranquil fulcrum]

Dam thats a crazy takeoff point for 80 vert lmao

bro took off from the free throw line lol

I guess w/o balll makes it easier though

[atomic wolf]

Fym find????

I made the build

I was messing around trying to get a build with 99 mid range and 99 driving layup

[meager acorn]

Genuinely hate red randoms bro

[reef axle]

anyone have a bet for nba

[meager acorn]

Hold my man to TWO POINTS and my Teamates are STRAIGHT BSING

[atomic wolf]

With that specific setup? No.

[prisma kelp]

I mean random rec will never be consistently perfect but u get less bots on average the higher u go

If u hate red randoms think about black
Plate random rec

🤣

[atomic wolf]

Getting a 6’4 with both of those things AND 99 3pt, AND high DD is insanely hard to do while still having good stats everywhere else

[obtuse smelt]

cant hit random rec unless its gold or above fr

[prisma kelp]

Silver is alright too sometimes

[atomic wolf]

Never

[prisma kelp]

Bronze and casual is usually funny and bad

[prisma kelp]

People are definitely not as bot like in silver compared to bronze and casual

From the games I’ve played

At least

They’re nowhere near great but not as bad

[atomic wolf]

I had a guy sell my team and he just kept chucking shots and his reasoning was “as long as I get 20 points a game I don’t care”

[prisma kelp]

I mean yea there will always be dudes like that in any plate. The point is on average it’s less common as u go up

And for me the change is noticeable at silver compared to the bottom 2

[atomic wolf]

Specifically on a 6’4. If it were any other height it’s fairly easy

And you don’t want that build. It’s not very good at all

[elfin cliff]

does anyone know that one bigman post fade where its a slow 1 legged

kinda shimmys to one side then it fades on 1 leg and its genuinely the slowest shi ever

[robust oxide]

who tryna talk?

[meager acorn]

Bro what is this statline

[robust oxide]

29 assists 😭

[shy kayak]

Dat current gen?

[robust oxide]

17/17 too

28/29

[remote otter]

only missing once is crazy

73 only missing once r is wild

[chilly prairie]

Not to crazy if they all open shots

Shot creation is very easy

And defense is terrible

[strong star]

Why is the game so laggy

[sleek hearth]

no one else getting error coded after games

[smoky carbon]

Yo bruh I made shoes on 2k and they’re just not showing up

Like I save it and it doesn’t get in the store

Does anyone know what to do

[raw idol]

3/8 or 1/5

[prisma kelp]

if they are AI cheesing or cooking ur teammate that hard, u gotta try and get the switch

[vocal scaffold]

2k got Stevie wonder on my team “Who do I pass to”as he throws me the ball when I’m down the court and the pg is sitting right infront of his face like only my teammates bruh I swear 2k is different

[opaque stone]

Anybody else have real delay in ante up or its just me? Every other mode are fine .. just ante up delayed asf

Seems like they did ante up delayed on purpose 😂

[meager acorn]

Yea

[meager acorn]

He was doing it to everyone but me

[meager acorn]

Not talking about me

[steep shuttle]

My best was 25

[steep shuttle]

What 2k is this 25?

[vocal scaffold]

If 2k brings back plates in 2k27 I genuinely might skip 😵‍💫

[opaque stone]

Plates is your problem? No zens or lag switch?🤣

[heavy heart]

Has anyone had an issue with the companion app where you cant log in and it just says failed to log into app

[vocal scaffold]

Used to all that other stuff by now but when I’m silver and play against red plates constantly in random rec I just kinda wanna not play :>

[meager acorn]

26

[opaque stone]

Ill skip 27 anyway… this game is dead

[steep shuttle]

Current gen prolly then

[meager acorn]

Mhm

[prisma kelp]

2k? dead?

on ps5?

[heavy heart]

Has anyone had an issue with the companion app where you cant log in and it just says failed to log into app

[novel tendon]

I don’t think 2k is ever gonna die just because like 50% of the community only plays 2k

[oblique owl]

How's this for a fat lock

+5 to 3pt
+5 to perim
+5 to speed

[smoky carbon]

I was tryin to make Shai shoes

[native aurora]

Bruh my teammates try to pass but don’t know who to pass to

They literally pass to the opposite corner when one corner is wide open

You have a 360 degree and nearly a dam Birds Eye view of the whole court you can’t be messing that up

Or they pass up a wide open layup to a dude being heavily guarded on some Ben Simmons shi

[vocal scaffold]

Why does 2k switch my builds from 60 ovr to 99 ovr its like one game I dunk on the entire team next game im getting blocked by small guards who have no block rating 😪

[noble parrot]

is my build good

[vocal scaffold]

Lowkey they gotta remove rhythm shooting in 2k27 too it is not it button way more consistent

[novel tendon]

Buttons more consistent but iv been tempo shooting tryna get better with it

[chilly prairie]

Screw tempo, can we bring back good defense?

Ill die on that hill

Thats the number 1, 2 and 3 on the mount rushmore of bs this year

[prisma ocean]

Fax

[tropic zinc]

screenshots exist

[prisma ocean]

Cant count how many times i saw bs

[chilly prairie]

I cant stand 2k

[meager acorn]

Still mad about this

I should report him

[prisma ocean]

Its ah love hate relationship fr

[prisma ocean]

Someone aint guardin

[chilly prairie]

Hate rage slightly enjoy more for me

[meager acorn]

He put belt to everybody but me

[spice hinge]

hehe

[spice hinge]

still dont know how that last reach was a foul and not a steal

[prisma ocean]

Yikes no defense?

[slim gazelle]

yo does anyone know where i can get into a lvl 30 crew

[meager acorn]

No the were just bad

Then they left

And ai got abused

[prisma ocean]

🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

[chilly prairie]

I think im officially done with 2k this year omg

Uninstalled

[slim gazelle]

@everyone does anyone know where to get into a lvl 30 crew

[chilly prairie]

I need to find something that doesnt make me freak out

[nimble quarry]

who wanna run 2s chill runs

[hazy marsh]

Why what's wrong

[daring ferry]

Very easy if u get open

[fresh crypt]

?

[daring ferry]

Js buy 2k labs package

[cobalt pier]

Have missed you man.. how have you been 😏

[daring ferry]

😭

Wym by hitting greens massively

Like what %

[cobalt pier]

Lol 😂... My bank has been rolling.
You got any play tonight?

Just added you ☺️

[restive crag]

anyone have a 6'7 pg build that has high driving dunk that can run 5s?

[next arch]

Who need help with tonight pick

[meager acorn]

I’m finna get so raw at 2k

If I learn how to time my meter

[sand zealot]

If you join. level 30 club you get all the rewards?

[hazy marsh]

Yes

[sand zealot]

What happens to the stuff I already have from my crew level 20

[hazy marsh]

You lose it and get the level 30 after 7 days

[steep shuttle]

🤦🏾‍♂️

[daring ferry]

Turn ur meter off

[meager acorn]

I’m too inconsistent without it I shoo better with it

Couldn’t green half court turn around jumpers with it off

I can with it on

And with a 78 three ball

No shifty

Bronze limitless

[daring ferry]

For sure

U only making those consistent if u cheating

[elder wyvern]

which visual cue should i use?

@here

[vocal scaffold]

I’m so heated lol

I’m missing open 3s with a 99 3 because I use tempo and it just says early or late like I’m shooting button

[meager acorn]

Def not consistent but consistent enough to impress Randoms

[daring ferry]

Push

Personally

[daring ferry]

What do u consider consistent enough

Like 30%

?

[meager acorn]

I shoot like 50% on average

I do be jumpers from half court make like maybe 2 a game

If I make any

[daring ferry]

Ur percentages r gonna be in the dumps

😭

[meager acorn]

Yeah but I’m a loc so it’s straight

[daring ferry]

Ah

[daring ferry]

When u start playing

[meager acorn]

Prolly like

Last summer

[daring ferry]

Nice

Im tryna get global ranked

[meager acorn]

Hmm

I don’t even think ps4 got that

[rancid sage]

ps5

[daring ferry]

Ive been playing too much this week

Im boutta hit legend 2

[meager acorn]

2k don’t even got a real rep system

You hit hall of fame my performance

And it’s not even real

It just makes everyone look like hof in your screen and what they are on theirs

[daring ferry]

What

[meager acorn]

So

You know how some people are

Red or purple plates

On ps4 you can hit purple plate

And itlll say everyone you go against is purple plate

But actually they are most likely

Gold bronze or silver

Not actually purple

[daring ferry]

Ohhhh

Im in red plate atm

[meager acorn]

So you still get matched with 60’s and everything

[daring ferry]

Its pretty dead on old gen

[meager acorn]

It’s alr

[daring ferry]

They haven't changed the game since 22

They got old everything

They js slightly revamp

[meager acorn]

I meet some people who prefer ps4 over ps5 version

Some

The best fits you can get on os4

Is from Jordan

Puma

And swags

And nba store alr if u wanna dress like u play in the nba

[daring ferry]

I don't care abt my outfit tbh I dress like a bum

[torn fern]

How do I find the Chanel for switch 1?

[rocky wraith]

wish i got 85 layup for klays layups but oh well, cb’s exist

[meager acorn]

I wanna feel like dat but I have this urge to like change my fit everyday can’t keep it the same

[crimson otter]

Do I upgrade my physicals first or defense

[open ruin]

Quadruple double almost

[meager acorn]

Rookie numbers

[noble parrot]

can someone give me a tall guard or short guard that can dribble

[willow pike]

Is legend paint patroller worth it

Is it any good

[atomic wolf]

how many caps you got

[atomic wolf]

eh

I have a natural 89/99 interior/block and a 77/93 with +2 on paint patroller and the natural one seems better but that's cus of the higher block rating

... and my positioning

[tacit cove]

Aye if any of y’all can get me into contact with the devs that would be great. Got a lot to say about this terrible game

Worst game ever made with the most technology like it makes no sense whatsoever

[restive crag]

any pg build that is all around with 9 cap breakers and 2 shooting specialization that i can have reference?

besides 6’4

[rocky wraith]

chat how do we like the klay thompson build?

[stiff pebble]

Steal number seems kinda arbitrary

I guess prolly just like two caps on steal

[rocky wraith]

wdym?

[stiff pebble]

Like 80 or 92 are both odd

Seeing all the caps fully maxxed out makes it tough to tell what direction you’re going in

[rocky wraith]

planning on for rn +2 on 3pt +1 on perim, +3 on layup (3 cbs), and +2 on steal

[noble parrot]

2

[rocky wraith]

in that chronological orxer

[noble parrot]

is this a good build

[noble parrot]

who are you

ngl i don’t want your builds

feel like they suck
