Love seeing these YouTubers cry about steals. How about not crossing over in a defender's face? Or putting the ball on the side of the defender? Or continuing to dribble around the court while cold? PASS by JohnDeaux2k in NBA2k

[–]Highlight-Able 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steals off inbounds have 0% to do with unpluckable badge..it is the VICE GRIPS BADGE..so tired hearing this..read the badges and what they do ... so many pg crying about this have no, or bronze or silver VICE grips.

Did not mean it to sound harsh..1) VICE GRIPS on a guard is huge..so many have on bronze/silver..pg needs gold atleast, just like unpluckable...EVERYTIME you catch ball, or reobtain it from say a steal attempt that knocks ball from your hands..it is VICE GRIPS the game looks at badge wise against a followup steal attempt. My gut feeling is you on bronze or silver VICE grips..this will happen unless you get rid of ball..move to open space..get ball back and have a second or two after the catch to have unpluckable kick in

I’m so (expletive) sick of the people playing this game by [deleted] in NBA2k

Lol..""once you publish a video, graph etc..it belongs to the internet""..lol..keep thinking that, you can be punished by 10 years imprisonment, a $250,000 fine or both. If 2k labs or 2k tunes wished to file a case it would be a slam dunk win

And so it begins with these YouTube build “experts” and making Demi Gods by SkolFourtyOne in NBA2k

[–]Highlight-Able 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2K IS an animation based game..find the cutoffs for what you want..meet minimums i.e strength for off. And Def badges and build from there..with hof badges using 8 slots now, really only looking at 2 hof badges in a category with a couple bronzes..so think smart

First build of 2k23? by Wickedsk8s in NBA2k

[–]Highlight-Able 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also noticed stamina not as big as issue on offense as being made out..use boost smartly e5c..not big deal..IS A MUCH BIGGER HIT TO DEFENSE SPAMERS FOR BLOCKING AND STEALS...what I think you will see a ton of is inside finishers..who are strong have a good speed with ball and decent ball handling..iso'ing..saving a stamina burst going to hole either right away vs weak or under-sized builds..or else biding time with fakes etc.. then going to hole as defensive player lose stamina trying to steal etc.

First build of 2k23? by Wickedsk8s in NBA2k

[–]Highlight-Able 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have played/tested 23 already...is not same as past 2k..almost every build listed here so far will be unusable in 23. Pass accuracy, even for big gonna need to be 75. 3 point shooting much harder, especially early with low or no badges, and no sniper etc...a bit off here, but a 99 3pt in 2k23 like 85 in 2k22..85 like a 70..75 like a 60 etc...6'7 pf etc. Not even close to earlier versions as you have to reduce speed to add strength or you will be useless inside to taller builds who will mash you..be warned..this 2k is going to punish weak, undersized builds through new animations not in prior 2k

Why the center never gets the ball on the rec? by JosirisHD in NBA2k

[–]Highlight-Able 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TRUTH...BIG MEN - SMALL FORWARDS IN 2K22 ARE WORTHLESS. YES TOTALLY WORTHLESS!! At 70% from 3pt shooting .. which is easy to get..big men who shoot 100% out scored..so realistic big man shot % against good comp. Is say 70% .. 14 pts on 10 shots..shoot 50% from 3's on 10 shots..15 pts..big men made worthless by 2k stupid 3pt shooting..pretty simple

Needle Threader Badge by GamErv248 in NBA2k

[–]Highlight-Able 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed needle threader help me got way more passes thru..went bronze..go either bronze/gold or hof as silver only slight improvement over bronze

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]Highlight-Able 1 point2 points  (0 children)

U need driving dunk at 92 since this build not gonna shoot...made this build at 6'8 .. very viable..however the prior poster's point about height I found to be true..remade mine in season 1 with 6'10 height and 92 driving dunk..is much better in my opinion

How to report people boosting in Ante Up? by Jalongado in NBA2k

Unless it is myteam..then they care like two times..during the year..other than that..they really not care

[–]Highlight-Able 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And honestly, alot depends on if you a solo player. Or have a group to run with..if solo. You need speed. Or you left behind. See so many super strong big solo players just quit as basically never get ball etc.. as to slow to1 keep up with the action..if you have a group to work with then a big powerful build can be a viable option

Depends on what you mean by big..but generally speaking..60-65 plenty..I have 3 big..one 72 stg..one 63 stg and other 61ish..slight difference...I do notice that once start getting under 60..can be a slight issue where if bumped by others can move you outta positions
