Going back a bit on this thread are gifs that show examples of the contested shots which the back foot staggers. not shooting out of double-teams, disregard that one.

Volume Shooter has some of the dumbest requirements. It only takes 8 games of 25+ shots out of a total of 82. I checked my stats and my first 25+ shot game was 8 games into the season and the rest were 7, 5, 8, 3, 4, 7 and 6 games apart. I could see getting the badge with like 8 consecutive games of 25+ shots, 30 25+ shot games in a season, averaging a certain number of on the season, or having a high number of FGA combined with a low FG%. I don't see how a player that averages 16.4 FGA, 9.5 APG and shoots 61% from the field is a considered a "volume shooter". If they're gonna keep the badge system, they're gonna have to seriously look at and readjust some of these badges.

This would make sense in the context of the actual NBA, how many not number 1 options attempt 25 fga?

But in 2k, on 12 minute Q even role players can amass that # of attempts.

On superstar casual. I'm literally throwing up shots in people's faces . Only played 2 games and hit 40 contested shots. Also I'm only taking threes. I tried 15+ ft long two pointers and didn't get it . My shots were always A- now they are B or Below mostly Cs.

The amount of shots you and your teammates get depends on your play style.

Big Al, Walker, Stephenson and Paul Millsap rarely get more than 25 shots on mine as starters and bench player rarely get more than 10(15 tops). Big Al and Walker average 15.9 and 14.7 FGA as option 2 and 2a. Stephenson average 11.4 FGA. Paul Millsap averages 7.2 FGA with us.

My role players Hairston, Cole, Roberts and Vonleh average 6.6, 4.2, 4.3 and 3.7 FGA.

Get 100 “good screen” teammate grade events in a single season. Finally, your strength attribute must be:
  • PG = 70
  • SG = 75
  • SF/PF/C = 80
