yes. off the ball pest is a very useful badge for a center to have.

What would be a good perimeter defense number to have

whatever gets off the ball pest to unlock.

Not too sure if driving layup or close shot are too important

you need 93 rebounding minimum as a centre. you'l get out boarded in every game without it. 93 middy and 86 3 is too much shooting so drop that, make your wingspan bigger, and get 93 rebounding. need 75 vert minimum. 65 driving dunk I use 81 driving layup and it's extremely valuable. the Jokic euro-step can be triggered from just inside the 3pt line and it teleports you to the rim. super useful

Good to know… what would be good jump shot ratings?

I wanna be able to shoot a little bit

Couldn’t get driving layup (it’s 58 currently) but I got 93 defensive rebounding 65 driving dunk, standing dunk to 90 and wingspan up to 7’4 while keeping midrange and 3 at 86 and 82 respectively (86 midrange gets the better shot animations in the shop I’m pretty sure along with open looks on gold and post fade phenom to HOF)

You can drop 3-ball to 76 and still be able to shoot well

I do well with 88 middy and 76 3pt. that gets you gold green machine, open looks, and HoF Comeback Kid

Open looks gets to gold with 86 middy and HOF comeback kid is 86 middy so im trading gold green machine for 5 points in 3 pointer

88 is worth it for the jump shots unklcokd. trust

92 block on the other hand is not important to have. i get just as many blocks with 87 as I do with 92

Can I see your build?

Perimeter defense directly attributes to your lateral quickness. So it would help when you have to switch out or have to recover to a 3pt shooter.

I lowkey thought that 90 strength would stop blowbys and speed was used to clear out to corners (speed is like 68)

If you can get to a 71 perimeter defense, that would unlock bronze close out badge. I’ve found it to be really helpful as a big man. That’s probably the minimum you should aim for. Speed alone is just how fast you move in general. That includes like, how fast you attempt layups and put backs, etc. Strength is more beneficial guarding in the post.

I sent a picture of what I have so far in the thread with the other guy

What’s better maxing out defensive or offensive rebound?

Offensive rebound is cheaper, you also don’t need 86 3 ball because you can’t get agent 3 anyway

How does having a 7’4 wingspan sound to have lower jump shot ratings but just longer arms and 85 post control for the build I want

Definitely a good option still, I personally went 93 because I’m starter 3 and get KD’s dribble pull up animation so HOF middy magaician is fun. 85 post control gets you HOF post fade fenom as long as you still have a good middy which is fun! I’d also reccomend upgrading your vertical though

I have 75 vertical on a 7’1 246 with 7’4 wingspan (could probably be heavier)

Sounds like a good mixture

My perimeter defense maxes out at 64 😂

You don’t get anything at 65 so it doesn’t really matter

Yeah so maybe I just put it at 58 for offball pest
