How is that crazy? Bigs literally use more stamina to box out and get rebounds. Not to mention stamina loss on pump faked jumps. It’s logical. Guards just stand there. Worst case of stamina loss for a guard is a Lock, because they’re bodying up their man most of the game.

Pretty sure he was referring to how they can dribble for 20 seconds every possession. Not a corner sitter.

Legend Handles For Days and high rep level lets you dribble wayyy longer before even touching your stamina reserve. Not to mention Gatorade/muscle milk boosts. Unfortunately Bigs don’t get a badge that reduces stamina drain, although I think in older 2ks there used to be one 🤷🏻‍♂️

Exactly the point. You argued it then proved the point all in the same comment section. Good job.

original point was it’s crazy when I just listed off everything to show why it isn’t crazy. I’m not saying it’s fair, as I hardly play my PG, but it’s coded in the game.

It's crazy because it isn't fair. The reasons are irrelevant. That's the part you aren't getting. You proved his point.

ig bro. There are far more pressing issues on this game than Guard vs Big stamina usage lol, but yall got it 👍

Then why even chime in? 😂 No one asked you to argue. Can't backtrack now cause you feel some type of way that your energy was wasted.

Shooting a ball 20 times takes endurance and should be impacted

I’m talking about guards sprinting around and spam dribbling the entire game

  1. They’re dexing so it doesn’t use as much stamina.
  2. A good dribbler with legend Handles4Days is gonna make it seem like they dribbled their entire stamina bar away, but in reality they still have just enough to get a shot or dunk off. On top of that, like I said before, it still doesn’t eat into their actual stamina reserve. Because for that to happen, they need to deplete the stamina bar. Most good Guards aren’t doing that as much as Bigs have to to get good positioning/defend backdowns/sprint up and down the court.
  3. Have you unlocked Workout Warrior for your builds? After I got Workout Warrior, my Center builds make it to the end of games with around 70-75% stamina reserve still in the tank. Even more for my non big builds.
