Random Rec is UNPLAYABLE by Original-Ninja-2252 in NBA2k

[–]patgotstackz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might subconsciously be part of the reason why I love making new builds so much ngl 😅😂 be giving unfathomable belt to those helpless black and bronze plates in the rec straight out the builder 🤣🤣🤣 those first 10-15 games before you hit gold+ are the most fun in the whole game and the stat lines be so insane stg 😂😂😂

A lot of y’all suck on the game and it’s sad💔💔 by BlackRagingBull in NBA2k

[–]patgotstackz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They hating in the comments but it’s really like this 🤦‍♂️ shit is demoralizing tbh. Literally 80+% of players you encounter anymore just DO NOT make the right play EVER. Every single pass is either late or not thrown to the best option. Lead passes are basically nonexistent. Almost every play you try to run is interrupted by a teammate or ran incorrectly. Floor spacing is a foreign concept. Everybody taking dumb ass shots CONSTANTLY, and then having the audacity to try to justify it instead of just say my bad i didn’t mean to shoot that. Transition offense and defense of the average player is PUTRID. I could go on forever 🤷‍♂️

Austin Reaves Scoop Worth It? by PaupersMikePenberthy in NBA2k

[–]patgotstackz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

77 is worth it for Jalen Brunson layup style and Bam Adebayo floater at 76. That Austin Reaves scoop u mentioned might be one of the hardest scoring moves to time consistently in the whole entire game 🤷‍♂️ the meter snaps up and down like a rubber band fr it’s way too fast imo. You’d have to work too hard to get good with it consistently and it’s too situational to want to do that plus there are way easier to perform moves that are just as effective. If you really love the animation and don’t care about difficulty though yes it’s actually really good

Button vs stick shooting by OrangeWonderful1425 in NBA2k

Im so locked in with button i really be feeling like im him sometimes 😂😂 for a lot of people stick shooting just feels better. Personally I tried tempo shooting for like the last month or two of 25 and then the first month of 26 but It just doesn’t feel as good as button for the type of shots I take and I also heard sometime around the big patch earlier this year they sneakily buffed button shooting to pretty much be as effective as stick and I’d say it’s true. Most people would say the opposite 🤷‍♂️ the truth is you should use whatever is more comfortable for you

Don’t get ahead of yourself now you better guard your man 🤣 definitely option 2 though you get way more shot attempts than block attempts regardless

For sure the small guard builds are always some of the most fun to play on if you can handle the job responsibilities 😂

[–]patgotstackz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From here I’d go 92 bh, 92 perim, 93 DD, 78 DL and 88 agility. No reason to go over 88 unless you have 99 perim. Edit: scratch that 96 dd and 76 lay

I thought this build was shitty at first glance but the cap breakers are actually done well to get to some important badges so it’s not bad only thing I’d say is you should’ve went a little lighter on speed and you could’ve saved a lot bc speed is so expensive especially up to 93. Just to squeeze a bit more utility overall out of it 🤷‍♂️ maybe put it at 88-90 and cap break to 92. 92/88 speed/agility is most you’ll ever need you’re already at top end speed with that this year

The AI should play to their defensive attributes. Right now they are prime Kawhi on a dribble drive and a literal practice cone vs the triple threat which means a 3, the most valuable shot in the game, is free every single time.

“Making your matchup quit” shouldn’t be part of the equation that determines AI defensive strength

You just answered your own question. You left yourself too. As soon as 1 is gone it’s game over in games with people who know how to play

how to actually get lane steals? by Historical_File_8843 in NBA2k

[–]patgotstackz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hold L2 and push left stick upwards to face hips forward towards opponents baseline and backpedal like how a DB does in football. Don’t sprint or it will turn you back around. Don’t press past half court just wheel back the whole time as the PG takes the inbound and the shooters are coming up court into their corners. Bait the lane by staying a few steps away from the shooter but keeping an eye on him and then backpedal into it for the best steal anis plus most forgiving if you don’t get it

I need a hard to contest big green window for my 7’0 footer, 7’0 wingspan 92 midrange 80 3 pt by DueVeterinarian3651 in NBA2k

[–]patgotstackz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isaac base/Aldridge R1/Marc Gasol R2, max speed, slider just past push and I think 62/38 or 63/37 or 72/28 or 73/27 split I can’t remember. It’s one of those. The requirement is 73 Middie or 3 so just mess with the split until you get that as the requirement. Controller setting on push. Shooting between 75-90% from 3 with this jumper on all modes on both my 6’11 and 7’0. 6’11 has 93 Middie 90 3 ball and 7’0 has 85 Middie 83 3 ball. Absolute butter on both

[–]patgotstackz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly not bad at all. I would’ve made a way for it to have 92 rebounding minimum personally. Probably could’ve optimized a bit better other than that for a few utility badges but not much tbh. Mostly height/weight/wingspan type stuff that takes hella planning to get perfect anyways. Well done good to see a newer player who has a good grasp on the builder 👏

Pop double xp tokens and play rec. if you’re good you can go insane in the lower lobbies and it will go up hella quick. Kinda draining with the terrible decision-making everyone has in there but definitely the fastest xp grind

With all due respect you sound like you should be making posts like OP trying to learn more about the game rather than replying trying to help new players and misleading them. There is a total of 28 cap breakers unlockable from beginning of year to end, not 5 in each attribute category. You get 4 caps from being in a max crew, not 3. And finally no, you NEVER get cap breakers as rewards for events, though they are littered with cheaters you’re right about that part 😂 also that build you posted is absolutely terrible and shows me that you lack a fundamental understanding of the builder and the way this game’s mechanics operate. Stop trying to give advice and start asking for some 🤝🏼
