What can I change to get the CPU to run their offense through a big man?

If you're on 2K19 on X1, download the SimWorld roster for an example of playbooks and play types for PHI or DEN (two teams that work a lot out of the elbows & post). Most of this game comes down to what plays are being run. You can edit Tendencies all day, but the play being run will determine the sequencing of events on offense.

Thank you I actually just recently checked out that simworld stuff, really helpful information. Been seeing better results since I made a custom playbook with recommended plays.

Pulled up my play notes from 2K19 to give you some of my personal favorites. I'd also recommend removing Guard Post Up from all playbooks since it overrides any other post play types as the primary regardless of priority. That's why you will see a player like Simmons, LeBron, or Russ keep getting fed in the post over other plays being run.

Here are must-have plays in 2K19:

Passing From Elbows (Jokic or M.Gasol actions):
1. PUNCH 45 ELBOW RIP (POST UP LOW)
2. QUICK 15 ELBOW (3PT)
3. CUT ELBOW CROSS (CUTTER)
4. GIVE 52 HORNS (HANDOFF)

Post Split Passing to Shooters (Kerr's Warriors actions):
1. 04 PUNCH 4 QUICK (POST UP LOW)
2. PUNCH 25 QUICK (POST UP LOW)
3. PUNCH 4 RIP (POST UP LOW)
4. QUICK 81 FIST (POST UP LOW)

Post Split Low Post Scoring with Passing Options:
1. 04 PUNCH 15 (POST UP LOW)
2. PUNCH 25 SPLIT (POST UP LOW)

Passing From Low Post (Jokic actions):
1. PUNCH 4 RIP HAMMER (POST UP LOW)
2. QUICK KNICKS (3PT)
3. QUICK KNICKS 2 (3PT)

How were you able to do this? Editing the team's playbooks?

I can't say my sliders will particularly run the offense for a big man but they would likely solve the Embiid problem. Bigs are constantly getting the ball at the top of the key with my sliders and roster/tendencies.

Slider Name: NextLevel

sorry for late reply normally my phone tells me when someone replies. I edited the playbook and added plays that were recommended. Edited touches tendency so big man has 90 and the others had 60 so he will get the majority of the plays. set coach slider for run play frequency to 95.

Thanks, I'm interested. i only see them get it in the low post mostly (low post plays). How are u able to get it to them at the top of the key? Which tendencies and stuff do you change?

The issue you're having won't get resolved by just game sliders. It's a combination of that and the player tendencies. Just because 2K has players standing inside all the time doesn't mean it's right, especially in today's game. All I can really tell you is I feel strong about the combination I have - with my roster and NextLevel sliders.
