What’s the best defensive badges for a 6’8 point guard

[@Jermo25]

Can you make a video on how to score in the post with a center? And what badges to have equipped. That would be really helpful 😊

[@Lewiss248]

anyone else hate mycareer how you have to run around and do garbage quests just to play your next game , lmao like let me just play in the nba and let me get my badges I couldn't care less about a damn story mode

[@Shootahfied]

If you complete a quest and don’t start a new one u can play without having to do that. It’s only when your mid quest that you have to do that. Next quest you finish stop talking to people and starting new quests.

[@robertdaniel9615]

What difficulty ahould I play on

[@TheBulletproof86]

EASIEST METHOD: go to the fake park games with Cole at Dreamer Park or with Tmac on Uncle Bobbys Park....You can throwing lobs all day without any playcalls or whatever. one game is usually only 3-4 minutes You get over 8k for playmaking. No cutscenes, no quest, nothing simple play the same game over and over agian without die hard HOF difficulty. The same works for shooting simply pick and pop or step back 3 all game. for finishing same pick and roll alley oop and defense is also a no brainer playing close outs and blocking shots. Thank me later....

[@durdurs8048]

Is there a better finishing method that doesn’t rely on team takeover?

Spot up at the hash call for a off-ball screen and sprint to the paint while calling for a Alley Oop. You will get a ton of alley oop dunks all game

[@justice4g]

I hate the lob meter so much, I want to watch my dude finish not watch a freaking green blob

[@allcityink]

What I do is I try to release right before he’s literally about to dunk it and eventually you’ll get used to the lob pass meter. Just remember to release right before the ball goes in

some badges just aren’t activating on the pop up atm. like limitless range. etc. idk if the are working passively. but they dont pop up so you wont see progression
