You get a check from your agent every few weeks or so

How long does it take to get a shoe offer from Nike or Jordan? im 35 games in and have only had offers from Adidas and UA, declined them both

[Aricin]

Made a 7.1 Center Rebounder / Interior Scorer. Basically me except with jumps

anyways, went to Portland. Not a great team fit as they got tons of bigs, but its my team.

Lots of positives i really like, practices, being able to chose which badges to work for etc. The fact that you now earn progress while playing is a big plus.

your room mate though, whoever thought this was ok and then whoever signed it off should be fired. Absolutely cringe worthy.

dont like that i shrink to 6ft in every cut scene, but whatever.

Some game play niggles. I cannot get my guards to pass the ball on a pick and roll. I can be wide open cutting to the basket after a screen and Lillard or whoever will go 1 on 3 against and throw up a prayer that gets blocked every time. I can pick and pop and will get the ball all the time, but never on a cut ...

Also, lobs, almost impossible to get at the moment. NBA not park

Last question, any benefit to playing something other than pro except for a challenge? VC stays the same and i seem to earn more progress on Pro then on Superstar?

i am 40 games in. Had offers from Adidas and UA. Did accept Adidas, and am now on my custom colorway. Signature shoe is "in discussion"

Contract seems to be only for the season so so curious to know if you can switch later to a different brand

If you've already started a MyPlayer, can you change your archetypes without losing progress or earned VC?

I created a Michael Jordan clone, but wished I picked an archetype that builds on shooting from 3s.

Thanks

Sadly you can't. Even accessories and clothes you buy is locked to the character you bought it with.

I'm having the same problems with my big in Charlotte. I have to time my call for ball spam perfectly to get them to pass me the ball, and that only works once every couple of games. I don't why it's like this, but we probably have to wait until we get on court coach for decent pick and roll play.

I had moved my difficulty to all star and my teammates seemed to play a lot smarter. Played the warriors and everybody went dumb, but I think it was because we were playing the warriors. So I'd suggest All Star diff if you're a big that runs plays.

Giannis is Jesus on steroids in this game. Haven't beat the Bucks yet in MyCareer because of him.

I'm thinking of making a shot creating/post scoring SG like Wizards Mj but can't right now because the VC struggle is real...

Anyone using this type of build? I'd love to know how he plays.
