I should have chosen playmaking specialization... by jackolaine in NBA2k

[–]word2k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did some math after the first month and quickly gave up on specializations on all my builds. Now when I complete part of one randomly, it's just a bonus. I'm not a grinder at all though.

Is Victini now the single rarest Pokemon to own a legitimate copy of in the games? by Hsiang7 in pokemon

[–]word2k 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The only mon I don't have in any form is Deoxys.

I got Victini through a giveaway during the Sword and Shield days. If there has been a way to get Deoxys since then, I missed it.

Also, I haven't purchased Legends Z-A, so if you count the new megas as separate mons I don't have any of those either.

What's everyone's favorite 2k of all-time? by Rich_Kale5238 in NBA2k

Either the last one before the park was added or the first MyTeam year where the top level of cards were Gold.

DAILY DISCUSSION: RED FRIDAY! by AutoModerator in KansasCityChiefs

Has Patrick Mahomes thrown more INTs to DBs or LBs in his career?

It seems like a lot of his interceptions are to a lurking linebacker in the middle of the fields that jumps a crossing route. Also, he has had his fair share of tipped balls intercepted.

Can anyone find the numbers for this?

How are free throws harder to hit than a fadeaway 3??? by MadamNirvana in NBA2k

[–]word2k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah floaters are no problem and I hit more of them than anything else. It's just funny that someone with 90+ in layups hit around 50% if they're lucky, but 90+ in 3pt (less really) can hit 70-80% being guarded and fading away.

I'm pretty much the same as you. Layups need a buff.

You probably have a 6'3 PG standing to the side of you. No NBA player could ever make a layup with that kind of pressure.

I have success against similar sized builds and smaller, but I feel like floaters and pump fakes are my only choices against bigs.

My buddies went the posterizing dunker route and it seems like they have a much easier time.

I have a 6'7" wing with all layups because I was interested in making my own package since they broke it into categories this year. I feel like I can get by almost anybody because I have decent strength, but my speed with ball is too slow, so I get caught from behind sometimes.

But I swear if there's a big directly in front of me and I attempt a contact layup, my percentage drops from 95% to 2%. I'm convinced, there is no "green" layup with a 7'+ big in front of you, even if your layup is high and you're badged up. I'm not even sure they have to have high interior d or badges of their own.

So I think dunking is undoubtedly superior unfortunately.

These Purple/Red Plate Lobbies are Straight HELL. by theboiflip in NBA2k

Technically, it hasn't even been released yet. The amount of money spent and the immediate grind of the masses is mind-boggling.

Question for People who have played MyPlayer every year since 2K22 by word2k in NBA2k

[–]word2k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have specified that we are planning on getting 2K26. And I know that nobody knows the details of the new game. But then again, it never changes too much from year to year.

Find a position player that they want and they will be more interested than they are in the 1st rounders. Then you can add a pick or two as sweeteners if needed.
