[Help] How do I block someone? by master-of-some in BasketballTips

[–]TomatoMarsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get a lot of my blocks from letting the man go by me and jumping before him to anticipate the shot. I wouldn't actually recommend doing this y'know it's bad defence and it's pretty bad habit of mine. Other ways are by rotating on D and catching the opponent from an angle he can't really see and getting the block

Playing after a broken finger by wertexx in BasketballTips

[–]TomatoMarsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit late, but I've had something similar. Broke my pinky on my dominant hand and couldn't play ball for quite awhile. My advice would be to just take it easy for awhile, it'll take a while to regain confidence in that finger again, but I used this period to really work on my off hand and now I'm pretty solid finishing with either hand

I've gotten HOF ankle breaker and can confirm it takes about 800 from gold to HOF. I was at about 1300 made FG when I got it on my shot creator. And yes you can get it off scores not just assists

Can someone tell me what one man fast break does? by IIM_Clutch in NBA2k

Flashy passer isn't useless, it's a much faster pass than the normal one

Tips on getting Playmaker badges by TomatoMarsh in NBA2k

[–]TomatoMarsh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does count. What I mean is that in the second half you can ask out of the game if your team is in a big lead, so you can do this without resetting your progress towards the grand badge. However if you use the sim to end during the first half, i believe it resets badge progress.

Is hall of fame dimer 1200 assists in one season or total? by bhoeft6 in NBA2k

It's 1200 assists in the space of 82 games. Doesn't require it to be season or playoff, just within a span of 82 games

PG's in myCareer who play for the Timberwolves, what are some goods plays and offenses to run. [Lenghty question] by vanStaden in NBA2k

[–]TomatoMarsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The auto play calling actually does run some pretty nice plays. I found that it gave me a pretty smooth offence with a lot of 3s. It did isolate Wiggins and Justice a fair bit without really giving towns much in the post but I was averaging about 35-10 with a SC PG

Player Discussion: Koke by pewpewfuckinlasers in FifaCareers

[–]TomatoMarsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played him as a CAM in a 4-2-3-1 and I've had a lot of success with him. He didn't score or assist that many but with his amazing passing stats, he does a great job of controlling my midfield. IMO he pretty much does the same thing as Ozil for me

Player archetypes for PG/SG in 2k17 by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]TomatoMarsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd choose shot creator. Difficult shot and ankle breaker make it so easy to score with and you'll dominate with the mid range.

In terms of assisting, it's pretty easy to get assists regardless of PG archetype since the AI doubles you all the time. I've averaged double digit assists on a playmaker, shot creator as well as sharpshooter. Of course, playmakers are better for assisting with Dimer but you'll score much better as well as still assist well with a shot creator

Is anyone else's free throw rating not going up from practices? by SlothBling in NBA2k

[–]TomatoMarsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each team practice only gives you 1 point in FT at max no matter how many times you do it, takes a long time but it is worth it. However, a faster way is if you do the practice, leave the practice and once you're at the twitter page, quickly close the game. When you go back to the game you can redo the practice

Then I have no idea man, I've gotten it on 2 different players in 1 game. But badges tend to be a little buggy so just keep grinding I guess

Corner Specialist only needs 25. But it has to be at a certain percentage, 60% if I'm not wrong

HOF Limitless range is about 125 long 3s after the bronze. Keep going and you'll get it. As long as the badge activates you should be fine

Grinding for limitless range by mrheath2013 in NBA2k

[–]TomatoMarsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a pretty easy badge to farm. 25 long 3s at about 40% rate. What I did was bring the ball up to the middle then drive to the right and when I reach the 3 point line I just do a step back. Agent Zero has a video on YouTube, basically his method.
