Please know your shot high IQ .

My SGA build and playstyle feels like a dying breed every time they patch the game to cater to quick stopping three point shooters. But I still prefer to get to my spots inside the arc.

Does anyone else like never seem to win in random rec? Like I don’t think I’m the one selling every game, but i probably loose 8 out of 10 games. It seems like there’s always an absolute sweat on the other team every game. Like yesterday and today my record was 1-7. Idk it’s always like this for me

No threes. I play in the paint doing the Kareem Abdul hook shot at 7’4. My hook specialist is only a bronze yet no one can guard me. All these centers just shoot 3s and gold off ball pest keeps them in check.

This is like my 20th 40 pt game 20+ rebounds and I play solo squads online. Averaging 30+ a game with randoms, 15+ boards, 2 blocks, round up to 5 assists a game.

Convinced hook shots is the meta, if I get double or tripled team i’m passing it to someone who can shoot 3s.

From the post, drop step, pump fake, score

Hook shot fake, go up, 3 pt play
Hook shot left and right gets them lost in the sauce.

Have they found a way to make it undetectable? Literally every other game theres 1 guy in a team of 5 that averages 50pts a game and shoots 88% from 3 fadeing from half court, they dont even hide it

I logged on yesterday to do my daily spin everything was fine. I logged on today and I have to redo all of the starting cut scenes and play the intro game. I closed the app, restored the licenses, and checked for cloud-saved data. I get back in and all my players are there, but the only thing I can really tell at the moment missing is that my Lifetime Challenges are set back to 30 when I was well over 140. Any help?

These salty weirdos get 3 minutes of pause time and 8 minute timeouts. Currently playing a baby who’s dragging this game out 30-45 minutes

Considering challenger is “useless”, is it better to just stick with 75 perim defense and get 96 dunk for elite? Or is the 7 perimeter defense worth it regardless of badges. Already defend well 9/10 games with my 75 perim. (95 speed 94 agility 80 block 75 interior 90 steal) basically a lock

Been running since 2k14 (goat of 2ks btw) never missed a green🤣

I dont have enough budget for this month, should I just wait?

Edit: thanks for the replies, i really didnt want to pay $28 for it

No mods, just lelongevity

PG’s are just SG’s who can’t shoot but want the damn ball.

Bdawg was shooting dumb shit from opening tip and each time saying “ my bad “ dude after 3 my bad no one fucking cares pass the ball. SIDE TO SIDE STEP BACK 3 over 3 people.

Stillbxllin dribbling for days misses every open man to shoot over 2 people.

2K has to make badge color off individual play and not team play because this shit is garbage.

Why is 10% badge progression for shooting a vet 2 reward? That is such pointless reward

Do yall green the rebounds? I get 15 rebounds when im placed at C without greening them. Will that help or will it just make it worst for me? Bc im playing the game and I realize sync snatcher never pops up for me. I thought I was timing it right but im obv not

You have to max out every season plus get the entire seasons pass to have a meta build - which becomes impossible if you miss a single season? I'm currently doing my post-grad and I would literally have to drop out of my program to be able to do this. These guys have lost their minds.

por favor deem opinões se essa build tá boa e consistente.

Just wanted to get some extra VC

EDIT: I'm playing 2k26 so that's why it's not working. Finally came back last year to this series since 2k17. Even for 2k standards, I'm a bit surprised they locked this feature to only the current game. Not worth upgrading imo but now I know the answer.

Hey all, my game seems to be broken, wanted to see if anyone else has this issue. I am a starter 3, and when I login in yesterday I was a rookie 6. There is nobody in the my city and I can’t find an online game. I have all my rewards from my rep ups even thought it says a rookie again. I’ve restarted my game, my wifi and still not fix. Today when I loaded in, there was another person. I messaged him and he has the same issue. Anyone else experiencing this? Or possibly have a method to try and fix it.

I decided to bring pass acc down to 78 to get agility up to 85. Then going to cap break DD to 87, steal to 90, perimeter to 85 and pass acc back up to 80.

Should have another 4-5 cap breakers over the next month or so that I’d use on either dunk and vertical to 96/83 or 3 pt to 89.

Out everyone that plays 2k27 on PS i just want a ALL TIME Lakers Kobe Build or a ALL TIME Bulls Jordan!!!! Come on some one HAS TO KNOW!

I made a SG for a reason, and yet 90% of my games I am playing out of position. i have a PG build, so I know how to play PG. The problem is that my Sg build is literally not built to play PG at all. i have a 70 pass accuracy, 80 hall handle, and a 78 3 ball. There is absolutely no reason I should be put at PG ever.

Truth be told I’m a scatterbrain and I overthink everything especially when it comes to talking to people and giving my thoughts on topics it get stuck in my head sometimes. It doesn’t help that I’m in a profession where I have to constantly talk to people. But sometimes I go through rants especially around games. Gaming is something that I never had to overthink. I did whatever was fun. 2K was that for me. Alongside other games, of course. But what’s happening with 2K is not a good thing. With the introduction of the Goat builds, the cheaters, it’s not worth the price or time. I played when the game first came out on day one where nobody could shoot up up to the latest patch. 2K has the luxury of being the only basketball game on the market within that luxury they became lazy and greedy. Let’s start with the introduction of female characters in my career they allowed us to be able to play with women in the park and rec and that’s great but they couldn’t add a my career/story portion to the female characters the game already has a built-in W online system. It screams last minute decision. All they had to do was make it so that when you create your female character, you’re able to use them in the already established W online. That way you can grind that game mode and the Park you wouldn’t even need to do a whole storyline like fire and concrete.

Then the people that is cheating, I seen the ban wave and I also see the same people that’s getting banned getting on alternate accounts and continuing to do the same thing. I know that every online game has its cheaters but at this point 2K hasn’t really done anything serious to stop them from coming back.

Then finally, it’s the goat builds. The goat builds are literally too good. I can’t remember the caption that they use for them, but it says something along the lines of using these builds allowed you to exceed cap breaking features and the stats are insane. They come with limitations of course you’re locked out of other animations, but the stats more than definitely make up for it. The issue is it locks people out of that competitive edge. Normal builds can’t get anywhere close to the goat build stats and if you do, you would have to sacrifice a lot and make up those sacrifices with caps which they made it incredibly difficult to grind this year. So now I’m left with a choice. Play a different game, which I’ve decided to do I’m currently playing resident evil Requiem. Invest in a goat build, which will eventually become obsolete in the next season and the later seasons. Or tough it out with my original build get fried and either put the game down or play again.

This is a build I just made, it only gets 4 defense tokens but Im cap breaking the perimeter to 85. I’ve only just got the game and I don’t know how the badge system works with the fuse and other stuff etc but once I cap break my perimeter to an 85 will I even get the badges for it or even get to equip them? How do I get around the 4 tokens or do I need to make a new build.
