[@GordonDRamsay]

Wont lie, as a Lockdown going from Silver to Gold Chase Down is a huge difference (IMO) went from barely any blocks to not even caring if people pass me because I know im gonna pin anything they go up with 😭

[@getsnipeddown1885]

I like that I can change my badges in them 2 spots for how ever I'm playing

[@jasonlamarre1587]

If you actually play defense unlike most of the community Immovable enforcer is top tier. From bumping the cheesy ball handlers to being able to move off bigs setting screens for the ball handler!

[@rose4mvp2012]

Man people just don't know. This is was my first year putting strength on my guard and I'm so happy I did cause man Gold Immovable is nuts, then when I use the +1 to put it on HOF these little guards don't know what to do.

I really wonder about some of people builds, to be HOF badge with 1+ what are you bad at. Some of these builds could never play every MyCareer Mode ( 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 5v5)

What about for centers?

[@brody8857]

rebound chaser and probably paint patroller. for me im going to use my cap breaker on rebounding to get legend, so ill either use it on paint patroller or probably set shot specialist since im a popper. getting that to gold from silver might be better than paint patroller from gold to HOF

Idk if it’s due to pass style but my homie runs pf/c made a jokic build 6’10 99 pass and legend break starter is not good at all. Not only do we fumble passes from him still but sometimes we’re wide open no one around to interfere and his pass goes out of bounds nowhere near us

What sucks is that? It really doesn't matter about how you build your player.They're going to nerf all this shit later on.And the game is gonna be a shitty game at the end of the year anyways!!! Everybody's gonna be complaining.How everything is too powerful. It shouldn't be this way!!!

I was honestly just thinking that today. U think bronze is good enough?

[@VibesMercante]

@@PACHoops I have silver with my max +1 so I’ve played with both. There’s a bit of a diff. Neither are totally reliable. If you read the shot blockers quickly you usually get a catch, and a clean one even on bronze. I’m think of rebuilding with 91 passing. Being able to start your lay/dunk without concern and read the defence while you’re going up is just a complete game changer for getting to the rim. That peace of mind lets you read shot blockers properly. I’m watching you, commit I’m kicking it, guard your man I’m cruising for 2. Fucks with a shot blockers head on subsequent possessions too
