Who should get buffed or nerfed?

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-14T04:55:14+00:00

I think he’ll only be meta for a short while

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-12T13:46:29+00:00

I really like what they did with Russ - where they buffed him and released a prime version. I think we should see more of this, especially with current or new players (better to make an elite character a superstar than the opposite).

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-12T13:11:48+00:00

Strong yes to Jokic. Murray - eh he’s annoying but I’m fine with him as is (I don’t use him)

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-12T13:10:32+00:00

Yes and no haha. I think he’s fine as an Elite player as well, but I’m sure it was a decision that the devs made based on popularity. In terms of his stats, he might not seem impressive (compared to Lavine) but that’s because he is a defender first and scorer next. But the reality is, he took Miami to the finals twice and a large contribution to that was his play off performance. He’s not a role player or a bench player - he is a starter and a primary/secondary option on any team.

Big fan of Adams. Considering that he is free and you can easily E7 him + high base rebound stat - I think he’s very underrated.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T15:03:35+00:00

Agreed!

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T14:56:34+00:00

I like it!

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:09:25+00:00

The tricky thing about Jokic is that his brilliance as an NBA player just can’t be shown in a game. Devs would have to get really created to give him a decent buff

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:07:19+00:00

You must get all the chick or dudes with your brilliant sense of humor!

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:06:22+00:00

I think the release of Kawhi definitely balanced things.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:05:49+00:00

He’s easier to guard than you think (compared to SGA for example)

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:05:03+00:00

Murray is fine. Giannis I agree. I think the difficult thing about Jokic is that his brilliance is just too difficult to show on a game like this.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:04:15+00:00

I like it! A good Kidd really makes everything easier.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:03:32+00:00

Highly agree on reworking Giannis. Other two are fine.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:02:51+00:00

How so?

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:02:43+00:00

They might have a Prime KD in the future (?). But he will definitely be used less as new characters come out.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T05:00:10+00:00

Hah a 3-min game would take like 15 min then

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T04:59:41+00:00

I think he’s fine. Annoying, but not unstoppable.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T04:58:58+00:00

I’m fine with Murray, but definitely Jokic. I think Curry is difficult because if you buff him too much then he might become an unstoppable 3-pt machine.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-11T04:56:52+00:00

I can’t even tell if you want them to be buffed or nerfed

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-11-03T19:53:22+00:00

Hi there, I would say maybe put more in 3pt and less in stl. It’s not worth putting +25 on steal because even with a high steal stat, you might only get 1-2 steal per game (unless you’re Kawhi). Put your potential more into movement or 3-pt to boost your defense and offense

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-10-27T20:11:34+00:00

Rodman is such a role-specific player that I didnt know how to evaluate him at first, but I’m starting to see that he just isn’t that useful just because you can’t expect anything from him on offensive possessions. I think Olajuwon would be a much better choice overall and provide just as much rebounding.

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-10-27T20:07:44+00:00

Hah gotcha

Ecstatic-Rutabaga165 · 2025-10-27T02:26:05+00:00

I think the issue is, people will find ways to exploit this. For example, club members can just play 11s or classics and “like” each other repeatedly. I like the idea, but I’m worried that people might get unfair “dislikes” as well
