For the love of god please learn how to use a post scorer

Is it really that hard of a concept to space the floor when passing to a post scorer in post up position?


i just ran an hour straight of park where not ONE TEAM could utilize me correctly. Made it worse when every opposing team had a mic and was calling me trash.


So for the record.....


When you are playing with a post scorer who actually knows what hes doing PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE space the floor BEFORE you post them up. Because if you post me up too close your man will jet right to me and rip me as soon as i catch the ball. Also when playing with a post scorer please keep moving after you post me up. Every single game, when I got the ball people would just stand still when I got the ball so even when I didnt get ripped as soon as I touched it, id throw a turnover because dudes are standing completely still.




This game needs to become more post friendly man. EVERYTHING is centered around the perimeter its crazy






The park is so trash for post scoring big men its crazy. You can really double us AND get right back to your man even if I pass it less than 1 second after I touch it.

Been saying that for the last 2 years. They have added some things. But they definitely nerf ed hook shots last year. Thus years is even worst. I've been missing point blank shots in the paint after making really nice lives to get open. It crazy.

If they're gonna keep Archetypes, they need a legit practice mode that teaches you how to play with each Archetype.

All the Archetypes really suffer when you're playing with randoms... I blame the game for not giving players enough tools/understanding of how to utilize each Archetype.

That said, I've learned to just set screens and function as a Big Man FIRST... the scoring part will come easier after that.

Re: For the love of god please learn how to use a post scorer

I've heard multiple Youtubers say that post scorers are the hardest position to guard but nobody uses them

I have a 6'7" slasher and he has only a 55 post control but the drop step is one of my go to moves because it's so hard to stop. Really sad there aren't more players in the park who utilize the post game

Re: For the love of god please learn how to use a post scorer

Honestly, 2k probably has one of the worst community of any game. Never have I seen so many garbage players that doesnt have any basketball iq think they're some kind of 2k god. I blame youtube....you got a bunch of morons that watch cheesy dribble moves and all of a sudden they think they can't do no wrong. I haven't met one player that knows how to really run a simple pick n roll. Even if 2k provided a tutorial mode for 2k18, you'll still have these types of morons more than people that knows how to play team ball and make the right passes.

The number of playmakers that have heard of passing to the roll man is ridiculous. If they can't get past their defender they will always reset looking for another PnR, even when u have a clear lane to the hoop. So many playmakers are simply allergic to passing but what annoys me most of all are players who don't even try to defend. I can understand getting caught/knocked down by screens but some people.
For example i played a walk-on game with my 6'10 Paint Protector, a Stretch Big was at PF matched up with an Athletic Finisher, he decided it would be a good idea to defend the AF from in front allowing endless entry passes and putting me in a situation where im trying to guard a 7'3 glass cleaner and a 7 foot AF without getting dunked on or fouling
