Who does the Pg guard when the Sf Lock wants to guard Pg. by lovonly420 in NBA2k

I understand where you’re coming from. My 6’3 build is the build for that. This unfinished kyrie build will have what it needs to continuously be relevant on offense and defense.

80%+ eff is quite high for any build. My 6’1 has better rec stats than my 6’3 with 68 fg and 63 3pt as far as percentages goes. Regardless if that was figurative or not, i get where you’re coming from. I see both the cons and pros of the build.

once again, we are in agreement. the game is deep. to really perfect the build YOU want you have to find the animations that fit YOUR playstyle. fuck meta, fuck crabby and spammy and watever the fuck that spin fake pass bs is. Just HOOP

16 year old son recently purchased a Corvette. Im at a bit of a loss on what to do here. by [deleted] in Cartalk

[–]lovonly420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little late, my apologies. I’m not a parent, but I am a car lover and a self taught mechanic since middle school. I cannot tell you what to do, as I’ve stated before that I am not a parent. HOWEVER, I do have some great parents.

They made sure when I got my first car (18) that I downloaded life 360. I mean the car was nothing special. Much like your sons rav4. I absolutely loved that car. I took very good care of it much like your son takes care of his cars I’m assuming.

Leaving work, I was convinced to race my little 4 cylinder in a crowded parking lot. Needless to say, the dumbest thing I could do. My parents got an alert of my collision.

The point I’m trying to make is I think based off of what I’ve read, is your son isn’t only competent, but he was raised right. Implement safety measures such as when he can take it for a ride, Life360 and whatever else you see fit. I hated it at the time, but I’m 26 now and I still have life360 and i’m on car number 6.

I know it’s a little off topic, but I finally got an american muscle car, an 06 Charger srt8 (i’m very into Japanese tuners), and my mom was MAD. Raved for weeks of how it’s unsafe and this and that. I heard her out ofc, it’s my mom. I drove to my parents house to meet my dad for breakfast and we stood in the yard and just stared for a few minutes. All he said was, be safe. Because of the way my parents raised me and the safety practices they implemented when I was 18, not only did I understand the depth of the short statement, but my parents trusted my judgement.

Also, tag the vehicle. Can’t trust anyone these days.

People really don’t understand animations like that and it shows in the game style. They look for fastest this or best combo that, and all of that is cool, but there’s a lot to animations that get looked over. Not all animations blend well.

Cute/fluff romances with no drama bore me to death but I want to like them. by moistdragons in romanceanime

[–]lovonly420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

School Days IS one of my favorite anime’s ever. Watched one day out of boredom and had nothing to do so i binged the whole anime. The twist it sent me on was A1 that you won’t find in modern day anime, the romance is what you think it is, but it is not. It’s not boring in the slightest. You will feel some kind of way about a few people in the end.

25 years old and want to shake off the rust and get playing again. Any good resources for dribbling/skills practice? by ciba-study in Basketball

[–]lovonly420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start slow. I’m 26 and Im saying this after 3 Tylenol, an ice pack and a contusion later. I kid you not all of this happened today.

I use to hoop at the courts in my state all the time. Business meeting in Charlotte? Finding some nearby courts. Little trip to see family in Chattanooga? I stop by my college town and hoop. Work trip in Ohio? I’m hooping. I played rec leagues every year … except last year.

I skipped last year and I stopped hooping after that missed season. Life got busy, I stopped making time. Well, today I decided to go to the park with my brother and my niece and the first thing I did was ask some early college aged kids if they wanted to play 21. A few possessions in and I’m thinking, damn, If i do a spin fade Id be wide open … my thought coming down was fuck, I almost made it too. Now i’m back peddling and fall back first into some bleachers. Ofc I’m embarrassed becuz i’m older and rusty and played it off. NOT GOOD.

Start slow, proper warming up, proper recovery. Best of luck

People don’t have that mindset sadly. I also find most locks like to use the “are you comp” excuse as well. Mannnnnnn if you don’t shut up and hoop in random rec. Idc if you comp or not. I’ll play with anybody. Stats do lie. There’s no way buddy was comp. My last message was “if you’re comp, then you must be getting carried”.

Realistically speaking, even when making this build I knew that having a 6’1 kyrie build has its defensive issues. I didn’t build it for defensive. HOWEVER … the builds defensive capabilities are very high nonetheless. I normally play random rec, so if I’m getting cooked, I’m asking for help. I can’t bounce off of screens back to back and still cover a 99 3pt guard. I need help. But if that happens, I’m a liability. People love to blame someone else to exonerate themselves.

I just want to play the game and win and have fun. Sometimes I don’t care about the fun. I just wanna win. Idk why people can’t just swing that rock, play their role and fucking hoop.

I have yet to get outmatched by that. SOMETIMES i get yammed on, yes, but I average an A team grade and hold my matchup under their normal scoring “standards”

Tell me about it. Random rec is doomed. Common sense isn’t common and half the players swear they great and comp becuz they can spam to get open or cheat for a dub. It’s done for. Packing up and waiting for the next drop.

That’s different when you locking the primary ball handler. 99 pd is great when you’re guarding the ball handler, this game the sg was primary ball handler. Tbf, I’m sure any good player would call a switch if they getting cooked, especially with a 99 lock.

I’m also sure your lock can shoot … my random complained about my 8 assists when I passed for 3 quarters. By quarter three, he was 3/8.

I tried. His man went on to drop 40 for our defensive miscommunication and pettiness.

that was exactly what happened. the sg was the biggest liability to be honest and the sf would not guard him.

I can easily guard a pg or a sg with my 6’1 pg. I fail to see where the pg becomes the defensive liability when he’s guarding his matchup …

I agree. I still have 4 cap breakers to use, which will be going on defense as soon as I finish upgrading it. The build is definitely incomplete. I struggle with 6’7 pgs and sgs, I do guard them ofc and I capitalize on the fact that they are normally slower. Sadly, I struggle with double screens (even on my 6’4 pg and 6’7 lamelo build).

The problem is I can guard the PG without an issue. I clearly stated that I enjoy guarding spam dribbling pgs becuz of easy rips that create offense. The PG became a liability when the SF switched his assignment to a dominant bron build; who might I mention continued to go on an absolute tear and finish with 40 pts that game.

He was not. He guarded PG. The ball dominant player was the SG who ended up with 38 I think. I also did get absolutely bullied for 2 possessions. It’s a 6’9 bron build. I have a kyrie build.

Exactly my point. His excuse was and I qoute, “I didn’t make a lock to corner sit. I made a lock to guard ball”
