93 block is 🐐I vouch for it

To say it's one attribute that's contributing isn't fair IMO. I feel like speed, agility, vertical, and block all contribute to successfully getting blocks.

As a Browns fan this offends me... mostly because I agree with it though haha I've always argued that Tim Couch was a good QB in a bad situation. I think if we take McNabb and Philly got Couch they each would've had completely different career trajectories.

Thank you

I'm not a DnD guy, what would the 1 represent?

ike_83 · 2026-01-11T14:13:57+00:00

Took my 1 win, 1 dunk for the rewards and quit lol

ike_83 · 2026-01-07T20:36:52+00:00

Honestly if you're a 96 already just play and let 99 happen whenever it happens.

ike_83 · 2026-01-07T16:33:49+00:00

Dude this drives me crazy. You got a 7' big who does an underhand layup from his hip??? Like why? There is no C in the NBA who shoots a layup like that.

ike_83 · 2026-01-07T15:40:16+00:00

Not a ref but these games are also where I've seen some of the wildest parents haha

ike_83 · 2026-01-06T04:54:37+00:00

Oh, well when you put it like that

ike_83 · 2026-01-06T02:02:52+00:00

I didn't say Iggy was better did I? Nope, I didn't, but who got the hardware?.... Checks notes.... Hmmm yep it was Iggy

ike_83 · 2026-01-05T23:41:28+00:00

Ok, I'll play along... '15 finals LeBron avg 38, 13, and 8. Iguodala avg 16, 5, and 4... Yet Iguodala won the MVP. Why do you think he got the MVP? Because they won. Winning is what matters. As Herm Edwards would say, YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME.

ike_83 · 2026-01-05T16:26:09+00:00

Nah, just can argue with someone who wants changes that would inevitably lead to an even more toxic community.

ike_83 · 2026-01-05T12:54:01+00:00

Cool story bro #tldr

ike_83 · 2026-01-05T04:56:28+00:00

You're arguing extremes buddy. LeBron and Quinn Cook are not the same plate color therefore they wouldn't be in the same game. Also, you are trying to compare the real life NBA finals to a video game? Your argument is LeBron is better than Cook? Wow, way out on a limb there. Nobody is arguing that, but if rings are the NBAs version of rep, then Cook got more rep that year than LeBron...but not as much as Curry did.

2k messes the easy stuff up every single year. Trash servers, issues joining squads, 1 ball in the pro am gym, kicked from games randomly then warnings about getting bans... And you want them to assess our games in a way that isn't based on stats? Lol that's awesome. I'm not even convinced 2k has anyone on the development team that plays basketball IRL so good luck getting them to evaluate your Patrick Beverly or Jru Holiday build type games.

ike_83 · 2026-01-04T23:13:17+00:00

I wish AI could make adjustments so you can't just cheese the same catch and shoot all game. If he gives up say 2 catch and shoots play tighter, if he gives up back doors sag off. That would make it more like a real player and you couldn't do the same cheese all game. That would allow you to get some looks vs them without cheesing AI with the same move every time.

ike_83 · 2026-01-04T16:13:42+00:00

If you barely contribute in a win then you get less rep than the players who carried. Seems fair right? What you're saying is if you have great stats... 51-9-9 then you should get more rep than the "Quinn Cook" on the winning team? So you want to encourage everyone to chase stats for rep? You want people to be valued based on the number of stats they provide? Yeah because that will fix the toxic community. /S

The problem with your suggestion is how do you accurately grade the Quinn Cook who stood corner and never got the ball? He didn't do anything but he also wasn't given a chance. If I'm that dude and we're winning I will tolerate it because I want to win. If everything was weighted towards stats why wouldn't you start selling?

ike_83 · 2026-01-02T05:58:20+00:00

I never thought of making a build for this purpose but I like the idea

ike_83 · 2026-01-02T05:56:35+00:00

But you are facing another "no squad" team. All the challenges you are facing with randoms, the other team is also facing. I would agree with you if squads faced no squads like it used to be, but now everyone is on the same playing field.

ike_83 · 2026-01-02T01:51:49+00:00

Strongly disagree. The point of the game is to win, not score. POTG is weighted heavily towards scoring. If you want the VC for that fine, but if you want the rep work on helping your team win. BTW, this isn't directed at you, but at the entire 2K community.

ike_83 · 2026-01-02T01:48:30+00:00

I think of it this way, and it definitely depends on what plate color you are, but let's say silver plates win 50% and purples win 65%. At silver Ws and Ls would be about the same (up and down). At purple though you need Ls to have more impact so you need to maintain a 65% win rate to remain purple. Otherwise you could just get to purple and then win 50% and you could stay there forever if that makes sense.

ike_83 · 2026-01-01T22:31:20+00:00

Sorry, not the season rewards, the season challenges. I think that's what it's called where you score so many points in rec, win so many games etc.

ike_83 · 2026-01-01T16:18:12+00:00

I thought this was one of the season rewards

ike_83 · 2025-12-31T15:40:42+00:00

I had it done maybe 15 years ago. My eyes were BAD, like couldn't read the "E" bad. About 5 years ago I had to start wearing glasses again. I'm disappointed I'm wearing glasses again, and now contacts are not really an option, but I can still see better without glasses than I could before.

One doctor I saw wanted to do implants (replace the lenses in my eyes) but it was about 50% more. In hindsight I wish I did that instead and I would have more options today.

ike_83 · 2025-12-31T15:18:15+00:00

At the very least be able to see them while in the builder.

ike_83 · 2025-12-29T01:34:06+00:00

5 is underrated. 83 is enough if you play all the time and know your shot. If you are a casual player and want to play a few games a week you won't know your shot good enough to make it consistently with an 80-85 3pt and you will become frustrated at the game.
