If Sizzle is back, G's glass cleaner and my Post scorer, and always switch me onto the Stretch Big so he's closer to the rim.
the post scorer and glass cleaner combo is probably the 1 seed, that's two high level brick walls to free shooters which is just vital and a lot of nastiness in the paint

I think Smokey has already declared retirement because he can't handle archetypes!
Also because he's too busy with fucking TRASH like Halo.

The lack of spacing last night was extremely frustrating, not to single you out Kibner but if you use lockdown/paint protectors you really have to know the ins & outs of the 2k games. I'd honestly suggest playing Play Now games, last years 2k was my first online, but I did Play Now games so I knew what to expect in Pro-Am for the most part. Last night, I was getting doubled in the post by whoever was guarding you, and when I ran Point there was always a guy helping off, that last game the stretch big outrebounded you, which should never happen for a Paint protector.
I make a lot of mistakes too, I don't want anyone to think I think I'm perfect, but using a Lockdown should really be for seasoned 2k players.

its unfortunate that 2k is such a cash grab that people don't even get an opportunity to experiment with different roles and archetypes without having to dump 20 dollars worth of VC into them

Thank you for not lashing out about it; I do appreciate that.

I started working on a Sharpshooter SG last night because I had also reached a breaking point. I had enough VC to max out 3pt and get Agility up to the point of diminishing returns. Since I don't intend on spending more money on this game, how should I prioritize the stats I will spend my trickle of VC income on? This is what I'm leaning towards:
- Mid-range
- Defense
- Strength
- Playmaking
Getting those to the point where increases are a +1 boost will leave me with a single spare point left from the initial 80 you get at character creation. Would it be worth to spend the next 20 points (after all practices) on getting Shoot off Dribble and Post Scoring to that same threshold? Maybe just Shoot off Dribble instead and spend the remaining 13 maxing out the stats in my original list and have five floating points to spend wherever?
abuC, my thanks in the previous post is very sincere since I have played with randoms in basically every game that have made death and rape threats for less. So, the level and reasoned call out is perfectly fine and I take no offense from it.
I am actually happy about it. I want everyone to have fun when I play with them, and a large part of that fun is being able to be competitive against other teams without feeling like a teammate is holding you back.

Mid range, playmaking, defense, strength in that order, I'd argue nothing in shot off dribble until you've maxed everything else aside from rebounding
I've used shot off dribble mostly for fade away close range shots that tend to go in, but almost any other kind of moving shot is not ideal for a SS
You'll need playmaking to move the ball and you'll need to be able to dribble into a shot on occasion or lead a pick and roll/pop
In terms of actually playing SS, the number one thing you need to be aware of is what is and what isn't an open shot--and it's not as easy as you might think which I'm sure you can agree with given some of the mid range shots you've taken on occasion.

Thanks for the feedback!
Yeah, SoD is off the table until everything else is good. Glad to know I had the right skill categories prioritized, even if not in the best order.
Definitely agree needing to learn when a shot is open or not.

By Dark PhaZe Go To Posthows the sg comingSlowly. He's out of college and has done a couple games. Trying to get my primary badges and mid range up before I take him out anywhere. It will be slow going as I need to earn like 160k more vc to fill out his available attribute points.

Streaming some games. We just beat a 52-1 team!!!
By Smokey Go To PostI need perfection
LOL, none of the top teams are undefeated, that Peerless Proficiency squad dropped like 20 losses in the last 2 weeks.
We would have been a top ranked team if our team had stayed together
Just takes a little bit of time to find the right formula

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postthey have so much they need to do to get a cent from me next yearsame. fuck 2k.
it's amazing how much they've fucked up the online. I'd rather they get rid of the PNO all together and just bring back regular quick play
gamers can't take a stand for shit
Everybody will be there because there's no other option and the itch will be there to get back into the NBA
But prove me wrong

Yeah, I'm not buying it day one or day 5. I might wait until after the first patch.

By Dark PhaZe Go To PostThey had bosh available in pno last I checked and changed John walls accessories to match a very recent change in attireI just dont know how we still can't backout and not take the L if we get matched up with the same team. It's infuriating. I don't care about record, I've taken 40 "losses" just by quitting because I didn't want to play mirror teams.
Priorities
Mathmaking is god awful, takes 15-20 seconds.
Rare if you ever get matched up outside with a higher/lower tier. the coaching system is still fucked and the ui is the worst it's ever been.
not to mention the gameplay. ugh
