I hit 100 wins in Park this weekend.  I’m like 101-145 or something like that.

Congrats bro.  Nice achievement.  100 park wins is really good.

BTW, thank you 2K for the free tattoo's using the glitch lol.  Been around for a long time and never been patched yet.  I tried it today and got around 40k+ VC worth of tattoos for free.  Ye boy!

Only silver shooting badges, so I didn't really shoot a great percentage from 3.  I can work on up to 3 badges per shot (catch and shoot, deep range deadeye, and limitless range or corner specialist), so I'm leveling the badges pretty good and I'm getting a good amount of XP as well.

Jesus.  What was your teammate grade?

I'm watching the best Pro-AM team right now.  Here is their lineup.

PG:  Sharpshooting Playmaker

SG:  Pure Sharpshooter

SF:  Pure Lockdown

PF:  Pure Lockdown

C:  Glass Cleaner

I watched them play 3 games tonight and no other team they played ran that lineup, so you don't have to run it, but it's what the best team does.

Joined OKC (love the Thunder) and wow, this game is realistic. Westbrick refuses to pass it and goes for rebounds all the time!

 

Also, I'm tired of the scripted trash with this game. I'll get called for a reach-in when I CAN CLEARLY SEE my player get ALL BALL. CPU will foul you; but nothing is called and they get away with a "steal". Also, your computer teammates always INTENTIONALLY let them score if you turn it over. They refuse to play defense just so this game can punish you and lower your team play grade. It's such a joke.

How many games do you guys play in regular season for MyCareer? I pretty much just played the nationally televised games during my rookie year (don't think it matters, just was convenient way to pick which games to play), which amounted to be about 17 games and was enough to get the starting role by the playoffs. Hate how you again have to play every playoff game...

I switched from HOF to pro about midseason, only major difference I noticed was opponents stopped hitting every damn shot on my team, so I could start grabbing a lot more rbounds. I think it effects the badge progress a ton, but has little effect on VC (unlike in the past IIRC). Since it helps my stats, which helps me get more fans, will help me get accolades, etc., I am probably going to stick on easy mode until my player isn't objectively trash (66 overall right now). 

 

I skipped 2K18 so I don't know if it's even new, but I love the shot meter on all types of shots and not just jumpers. One major gripe I have with game play is pump faking in the post is silly slow.

 

Also how much more to the story/cutscene is there, if any?

I've played all 42 games of my NBA career so far, 8 min quarters.

I don't play on HOF either, for the same reasons.  My character needs rebounds to build stats since I'm a Center.  42 games in not only am I leading ROTY voting but I'm #1 in All Star voting too.  I'm over 900k fans right now.

2k18 had a lot more cutscenes than 2k19, and most of them were very pointless and unnecessary.

I got like 3 straight double bars for my pure shot creator.  I don't want to grind it, but I want 95 overall really bad. 

On the pure sharpshooter, I know there's a triple bar to go from 92 overall to 93 overall.  The reason I want to keep grinding this build more than my other is because it's so much more meta and fits into any team comp.

Pure glass cleaners is the best bigs build, I think.  That build has a place on 2's, 3's, Rec, and Pro-AM.  Same with a playmaking sharpshooter, pure sharpshooter and a lockdown defender.  Those are probably the safest builds to make in the entire game.

A lot of centers went with the rebounding/defending archetype because it comes with defensive stopper and other hall of fame badges, but pure glass cleaner is just straight up better.
