I do have Gold in tenacious rebounder. And I've been averaging 17 rebounds a game lately, with a pretty good share of them being offensive rebounds.

Also, I was about 2 games ago, I had a practice where the coach told me to really focus on hustling out there. I thought I did pretty good, even though he said I didn't.

Yeah, I know earning the badges is more admirable than buying them, but I bought them with earned VC in previous years. Earned VC played over the course of enjoying many modes of the game. But now, all im doing is grinding for badges in mycareer. And grinding for what? Who knows, since the badges I really want, no one REALLY knows how to get them. Plus, when I bought signature skills, i only bought the skills that fit my style since you could only equip 5. With these badges, I have stuff like Tenacious Rebounder and all the Post badges and I'm a freaking SG; yet I can't get Acrobat or Unfazed or Deadeye. It's absurd.

Worse, to me, is the packaging of the attribute upgrades. I really want my PF to be able to shoot free throws, but to get that, I also have to improve his 3 point shooting. And for me to be a good post defender, I have to improve my perimeter defense too. To me, it means you can't build actual NBA players. If you go look at their stats, you can't match, say LaMarcus Aldridge (or Kevin McHale), because you end up with BETTER stats through buying stuff you don't really want.

Just unlocked Floor general. Makes a huge difference in getting your teammates to hit their shots. Still cant get microwave or one man fast break tho. Still waiting on dimer as well but im nowhere near 1500 assists yet.

Everyone has ONE badge they really want and DESERVE that they can't get... They don't want anyone to have a 100% perfect player.. or they want to make it EXTRA difficult. I for example CANNOT get 'Bruiser' which totally makes NO sense...

Hmm, interesting theory. I'm not sure I agree though but I definitely respect your opinion.

I just think a lot of these are based on tendencies and over the course of lots of games. Like I said, I was a pest in D since game one really and I didn't get lock down and eraser until mid season 2. For people just starting to execute certain things for badges when they are well into their second season, it is going to take a while to build those tendencies.

I say it's all about patience. However, I'm sure there are badges that are size or position specific.

How much of a setback is it if u get "allow man to score" when trying to get perimeter lock-down defender? Cuz seriously sometimes when your 100% contesting the shot u still get "allow man to score" and also sometimes u just cant do anything about it and your matchup scores.

Just got the dream like up and under badge.

(post up and tap the right stick right and or left and right) keep doing that same post move over and over it took me about 5 games on no sim)

All i need now is eraser and my center will be finished.

I honestly thought I would have been more in-line for Chasedown Artist as the majority of my blocks are against opponents on fast breaks from behind. I couldn't really give more than that as I wasn't paying attention to it as I wasn't expecting nor attempting to pick up the badge at that time. I started a All-Around SG for fun, I already received acrobat on my point guard, but that was so long ago I could use a refresher.

How in the blue hell did you ublock acrobat

Just got post defender lockdown badge, now with that and regular lockdown, I can cancel all offensive badges from getting used on me
