me too.

while i prefer playing PG and setting up teammates. I've been tempted to start a 2nd account and just be a straight up low post banger. Defense and Rebounds. Just crush some of these softies online.

The stretch build is ungodly online. I was playing with a playmaking PG and a Stretch Center and myself a Sharpshooting SG (Kyle Korver). The stretch C would grab boards frequently, and was always our top scorer because he was knocking down 3's left and right. He was like a better version of Al Horford.

So what's the go-to position build so far? 2k16 it was all about the SG's. How's the meta shaping up this year? Is SF still trash?

I bet online that archtype is pretty sick, but Glass Cleaner looks pretty nasty too.

Glass Cleaner vs Stretch
Off the Dribble: 6 / 11
Layups & Dunks: 20 / 7
Mid-Range: 10 / 25
3pt: 6 / 25
Post Scoring: 14 / 14
Agility: 18 / 15
Strength: 25 / 13
Rebounding: 25 / 12
Play-Making: 8 / 13
Defending: 18 / 15


And then in MyPlayer get drafted by the Celtics, Blazers, or Pelicans. Shiiiiit. Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4...

C's Line-up:
Thomas
Justice Young
Smart / Bradly
Hordford

Blazers Line-Up:
Lillard
McCollum / Justice Young
Crab / Aminu
Leonard / Ed Davis
You


Pelicans Line-Up:

I went 9th to Toronto as a SF, so I fit in perfectly there. Nice outside trio of Lowry, DeRozan and me, plus get some backup guard help from Justice

I went with stretch center and I abuse the pick and roll. What makes the stretch center broken is you can still rebound and block shots with your length. If you get the mismatch in the post it's still a very high percentage shot.

So I just noticed on the All-Star voting page that myplayer only has 1 year left on his deal, so thankfully it looks like we will be able to choose to go where we want after one season again.

i figured as much with some of the foreshadowing in the cut scenes, but i wonder if Justin will follow us.

Really? I'm about 30 games in and he still bricks every shot. What difficulty are you playing on

When I play my park I can't get my shot to ever hit green. I'm sharpshooter with 91 three rating. It always is either to long or short. It's complete guess work trying to shoot this year for me. I've tried multiple shooting forms

Does Justice's position change based on the player you created? I made a PG to start but I'm not trying to fight over minutes with him. They put him in at the 2 sometimes but he doesn't really have the body to be a 2. I went 4th to the Suns so we're heavily saturated at guard with me, Justice, and Bledsoe.

no, he's a small PG/SG in all of the MyCareer's. I wish he did tho. Would be great if they based it on what position you chose and what position the team needed.

For example i play for the Kings. It would be awesome if Justice was a quality stretch power forward.

Looks like I'll be remaking into a 6'7 SG then. There's too many good guards to split time with in the league as it is. Don't need another imaginary one following me around that's always gonna be better than me skill stat wise. I'm not overly enthused about PG's still being so damn slow. You have to be a damn midget to be fast in this game. I went with a shot creator PG at 5'11 and my speed with the ball is maxed at 77. Ridiculous. Zero point in going PG unless you go playmaker.

Do you use the right stick? I couldn't get a good shot meter when I was using the button so I switched to the stick, and it is extremely easier, more consistent.

Went with a 6'5'' Shot-creator SG to get that 85 speed. Only dropped from 77 with-ball speed to 74 going from 5'11'' PG to 6'5'' SG. LMAO. Pretty much exactly the same stats except better inside scoring, more strength, and not a complete ghost on defense.

So Denver texts me and wants to get together at the water park at 3pm.

Check the calendar and there's a scheduled team practice at 3pm.

He's either dumb as a box of rocks or he's trying to set me up to miss practice.

It could be the shot meter glitching. Been a lot of talk about it for sharp shooter.
