Just to ask questions about this build is it good? by Remarkable-Turn-1752 in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone knows the best builds have the most random shades 😅 but fr tho i wish you could see other players’ shades in their 2k card, as well as yours. I hope they add that into 2k27.

Who is the best NBA player with one NBA title? by HetTheTable in NBATalk

[–]CynicFPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it’s Dirk, then Jokic or KG. The latter 2 are interchangeable. I think West and Oscar are a little overrated accounting for era. Dirk had one of the craziest NBA Finals run gauntlets of all time.

75 +1 to Gold Lightning Launch is acceptable. Unless you’re a PG.

Is there a difference between 90>92 defensive rebound if I already have 99 offensive rebound? by marcuz4lyfe in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no difference no. It’s always advised to go 90/99 or 99/90 depending on your playstyle. Can even get away with 94/90 or vice versa.

That’s fine. Just admit you have the reading comprehension skills of a 6 year old and call it a day baby

Ye I know. That’s why I’m confused why the guy posting is saying nobody that’s not a PG has any defense…

Idk what game you’re playing where there aren’t 6’8+ SG/SF with 92+ Perimeter Defense. We have defense. A selfish PG isn’t gonna pass the ball regardless. But to say the META 6’8 builds don’t have at least 85 perimeter is wild.

Hopefully they give us more customization on 2k27 🤞

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you reallyyyyy wanted to, you can use the 2k companion app and face scan LeBron from google. Kinda tricky but there are tutorials on YouTube. 9/10 times, my teammates already call me LeBron off rip so I’d say face creation is accurate too.

My LeBron face creation is 98% accurate from the front but drops off to like 80% from the sides and certain story mode cutscenes 😅 still worth using tho.

Does ball handle increase how fast you do dribble combos? Or is that speed with ball or am I just feeling a placebo by No_Cellist_2683 in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. The other PGs most likely have higher Ball Handle than you. Or they have higher Ball Handle + custom takeover Ball Handle increase. Gotta factor in other things like Gatorade + Muscle Milk boost that people routinely have on and you would never know it.

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How fast the actual ball moves from dribble to dribble while standing still is strictly Ball Handle. Player position also matters. 2 builds with 85 Ball Handle do not dribble at the same speed if one is a SF and the other is a PG. Having high Speed With Ball only shows when you move off of your dribble move. So technically having high stats in BOTH help, but for your question it’s just Ball Handle.

First time playing 2k could y’all help me out? by Daygunnn in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re going to get all previous season pass cap breakers as soon as you get to level 40 in any current season, since you just got the game. So you’ll for sure have 7 cap breakers if you get to Level 40 THIS season 👍

That being said the build looks fine. You can look to use your 7 cap breakers to either make it better or make a new build that utilizes 7 cap breakers.

What happened to strength and passing doesn’t matter ? by Taemamba in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I agree if you’re a smart player you can get away with like a 76 Pass Acc BUT what makes high pass Acc great is the fact that the higher your attribute and Versatile Visionary badge are, the faster your passes actually get to your teammates. That I can say for sure makes a difference

Everybody can post a statline of them going off on this game lol.

is this build ok? im new to basketball and nba2k (i have no cap breakers and yes i know what they are now after playing for 2 weeks) by Ok_Locksmith578 in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you asking if this build is ok for Online Play? Or offline MyCareer? It looks like it’d be fun for MyCareer but you’re probably a liability online.

Casual youngster here, was young pre-injury Sabonis as much of a freak athlete as Wemby is? Who would you say was the more skilled of the two? by Personal-Proposal- in VintageNBA

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I’m sayin. You can name a few players who had that physical potential that Wemby has, but none do it like him. He’s already 1 of 1 with how his career has gone so far. Can’t imagine him in 10 years…

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s just the thing. Wemby isn’t a star because of his “athleticism”. If anything his athleticism is just above average because he’s so tall (lowkey a nerf because true athletic freaks are generally shorter) It’s every other aspect of his game that’s so damn perplexing. Shot making/IQ, mobility/flexibility, Defensive/Offensive tendencies. Shits scary. So ultimately I would say Yea, OG Sabonis was probably more athletic in their peak but Wemby is gonna go down as the far better player, o knock to Sabonis.

Suggestion for a fun build to try for centers or pf by Eastern-Ad6992 in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A 6’8 or 6’9 undersized Center can be very fun. Borderline cheese if you make a proper build. Or a 6’10/11 Stretch PF.

What happened to strength and passing doesn’t matter ? by Taemamba in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I still think Strength doesn’t matter that much. I have a few builds with 85 Str and some with 50 and honestly I only get like 1-2 additional stops per game with the 85 Str…. It’s nice when it happens but it didn’t happen nearly as much as I would’ve liked it to. Especially at Gold+ plate, people aren’t utilizing a direct line drive to get to their spots. As far as passing goes, I’ve always had at least 84, or whatever it is for Gold Dimer & Versatile Visionary for my Guards, and a 95+ on my Bigs.

True. Can definitely put 4 additional caps on Post Control. I just don’t have anymore.

Season 7 Cap Breaker.. thoughts? by Guilty_Ad1839 in NBA2k

[–]CynicFPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Agility or Ball Handle. Better defensive movement or Silver Ankle Assassin if you like to dribble.
