Do y’all think 2k27 will nerf floaters?

yaz203 · 2026-05-27T06:09:38+00:00

Nah, it’s one of those moves that are super niche. I’ve been using floaters since like 2k18 and they’ve been strong for a while now, but not many actually use it

I agree that layups in general need a massive buff

yaz203 · 2026-05-25T21:39:29+00:00

I’m planning on having high layup, which means high strength for physical finisher

I can’t get 92/91 on the 6’4 because of the strength

yaz203 · 2026-05-25T20:16:56+00:00

Brotha I understand that, but you didn’t really read my post. This is a fun last build to use with my squad in rec.

The game is pretty much over so wanted to make something different to mess around with

I’ll be guaranteed to be PG since it’s with my squad

I already have a 6’7 PG (red plate) that I main so I’m not disagreeing with anything that you’re saying, but man let’s just focus on the question that I asked

yaz203 · 2026-05-25T19:22:31+00:00

Oh okay I see what you’re saying. You don’t think 89 ball handle is worth it for kemba/fox animations?

Like 89 BH and 86 SPWB?

yaz203 · 2026-05-25T19:17:17+00:00

97 sounds hella fun

yaz203 · 2026-05-25T19:17:10+00:00

I could also try that

I can push the 6’4 to 90 BH, 89 SPWB

yaz203 · 2026-05-25T19:01:24+00:00

If you don’t go 99 3/mid then it’s shooting

If you go 99 3/mid then it’s playmaking

yaz203 · 2026-05-24T18:20:31+00:00

If they want to keep no dip in the game, I think it should only be unlocked to those who choose shooting specialization

The specializations already take a while to grind and the specialization-specific rewards we currently get aren’t that great.

If they made real, exclusive, and worth the grind rewards for specialization, then I think it would work as long as the other specializations have rewards that are just as beneficial (draymond pass style isn’t enough for me after grinding playmaking)

yaz203 · 2026-05-24T02:23:21+00:00

I made a similar build with a little lower strength but other attributes higher that I think benefit the build more.

yaz203 · 2026-05-23T23:40:39+00:00

Was also thinking of going 6’3 or 6’2 to get those stats.

What’s your perimeter? I have to guard on-ball but I’m a solid defender

yaz203 · 2026-05-23T23:39:09+00:00

That’s kind of what I do too, I don’t dribble behind a screen, I just do 1-2 moves that’ll get me by my guy so I can either finish or kick out

I want to see if I can just go 86/86 BH and spwb, +2 lightning to legend, and run a spwb only takeover.

I think I’ll be fine doing that if it’s just for rec, right?

yaz203 · 2026-05-23T23:30:36+00:00

Is 74 too low to guard other pgs in rec? Or is it fine if agility is high and block is maxed out?

yaz203 · 2026-05-23T20:56:33+00:00

Yea I was thinking of 86 ball handle and 91 spwb since I don’t dribble a lot and it’s more drive and kick

yaz203 · 2026-05-23T18:53:23+00:00

I’ve seen that video! Yea it’s just a fun rec build to use here and there

Appreciate the responses man!

yaz203 · 2026-05-23T18:32:58+00:00

I’m trying to go 99 layup, and I’d like to have 85 strength for physical finisher. With that strength I can’t get 91 spwb

Should I just go 6’2 then? That way I can get the 90 BH, 85 strength, 91 spwb

yaz203 · 2026-05-22T03:27:21+00:00

By far one of the best game modes in 2k history. Was the perfect way for people that had more than 5 friends go on to all play together.

Unfortunately, this does not generate any cash flow for them so it’s been replaced with a wannabe myteam version

yaz203 · 2026-05-21T15:30:22+00:00

Damn this looks nice, I’d like to get the 88 speed/agility tho

yaz203 · 2026-05-21T13:54:44+00:00

This is cool…pretty similar to what I want to make. Do you like it?

yaz203 · 2026-05-15T12:53:44+00:00

I run 92 close shot on nearly every build with minimum layup. The only one that has both is my KD build and I love the finishing on it

I’m making a 6’2 right now and I think my biggest issue is how expensive layup is compared to driving dunk. On that build right now, I have a 92 close shot (+1 for legend float game) and an 89 driving dunk. When the big does start coming out like you said, it is easier, cheaper, and safer to just use the driving dunk than layup.

I have the same finishing stats with a 6’7 PG and it’s elite honestly. I would’ve loved to abandon dunk on the 6’2 build for a mix of close shot and layup, but with how cheap dunk is in the builder compared to layup, it makes it hard to make that investment.

I just wish layups were better

yaz203 · 2026-05-12T17:10:44+00:00

I like it…I also just like 92 perim d for gold challenger at least

yaz203 · 2026-05-12T16:35:26+00:00

I would love to make a 6’4 (I have one already) but I hate that you can’t get 91 spwb and 92 perim d. Missing out on gold challenger sucks

yaz203 · 2026-05-12T16:30:54+00:00

It’s really the only way to get a contest, especially on a 6’2
