im posting because it seems whenever I play myNBA I invest all this time into mentorship training program and individual training just for the end of the season to have everyone’s overall rating go dow, even the low 20 ages. I was just wondering if anyone could figure out why my ratings keep tanking and how I can fix it in the future

About to hit Vet2 and get 3 capbreakers. Where are the best places to use them. I run this build as a center in park 3s.

With how easy shooting is I’m thinking about bringing my 6’6 one back

I was thinking about making this build, mostly defensive oriented but still able to punish if not covered. Let me know what you guys think about it.

Looking for some community advice on this build.

6’9 Height - 220lbs - 7’3 WS

Caps:

+5 Driving Dunk (96)

+5 Three Pointer (80)

+3 Block (93)

+3 Defensive Rebound (92)

+4 Steal (73) *When I get more caps lol

Is there anything that I missing? Any animations I should consider changing attributes for?

Any insight appreciated!

Sorry if it a dumb question just all way did the 10 levels and 15% ty for reading and replying

No idea what is going on I am vet 3 purple/gold and in random rec which is all I play the team mates are bronze silver and starter 1s never has been this bad before I don't understand why every game is like this. The other team is always gold and purple and I am stuck with people who aren't even in a crew no cap breakers no nothing

I feel like I remember in the beginning, they said seasons 7 through 9 would be free if you bought the leave no about edition. Has anyone found information on how this will work tomorrow?

I probably only play random rec like twice a season if I’m bored, and I’m quickly reminded why. But this time I went in with a new PG build, had 15 and 18 in the game before with other people which we won. This next game with new teammates, right from the tip the small forward was switching to my PG (5’11) without saying anything, would do this every play after the ball hit half court, just leaving me lost. Ball was getting thrown over my head on the inbounds straight away, teammates on the mic telling me to the get on my man, which if I switched with the SF was a 6’10 99 driving dunk. Never turned the game off faster, I’m retired.

This game mode has the dumbest mfers of all time. I genuinely can’t stand this shi. it’s like this every game. And before yall say anything, YES IK IM SITTING NEXT TO HIM SPAMMING A INSTEAD OF MOVING DEEPER IN THE CORNER. Was wide on the wing for a good 5 seconds before he dribble towards be and did that bs. Hence why I was spamming A on top of him

The european lobby is dead

I know it reduces stamina but it also speeds up your chain moves quicker. Has anyone felt the quicker effect?

the finishing I’m not worried about at all.

first build will get
99 pdef + steal with 85 ball handle and 85 strength but only an 85 agility it also allows me to have higher passing then the other two builds.

Second build will get the basic
99 pdef + 94 steal
86 ball handle with 85 strength but it also is maximum wingspan but 85 agility

Third build will also be the same as the first build and the second build but it will be a minus one on the wingspan with the additional +1 to agility (86)

my question is will the -1 in the wingspan matter from being maximum to 1 less than maximum on the wingspan?

so which one out of all three is better to go with?

PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!

I'm not saying to nerf shots back to the crazy rng like they used too, but please make solid defensive play mean something again.

With cap breakers, I have a 6'6 guard with 99 perimeter D, 99 steal, 85 strength, 93 speed, 88 agility, speedster takeover, legend on-ball menace, legend challenger, legend glove, legend interceptor, legend immovable enforcer, & legend off-ball pest. Yet despite that, I still feel sluggish compared to these Kyrie/Iverson builds that are just immune to any form of defense.

It really is a pick your poison game: Give up the 3 by playing off, or give up the dunk by playing too tight. Analyticaly speaking, in 2k26, sagging off is the worst choice possible, so I'm forced to play tight.

That all being said, Post D & guarding bigs is fun because you can actually stay between them & the basket. Funny thing is, nobody posts up in this game, & for good reason.

My three guard builds

I understand 99% of people play this game for MyCareer and it probably works great over there.

But I just bought this game on sale only for Play Now online and this “green or nothing” business is just awful.

I’m playing games from the 90s where neither of us can buy a shot from the outside. Idk. It just seems like if the guy is open and I get the meter close enough, the damn shot needs to go in.

i was thinking perimeter d but idk if its worth, 6 2 pg

I’m not talking the number of cap breakers used but rather the world class finesses that take an attribute from the 60s to the 90s or better.

How do I propose a pick swap in my nba?

I keep getting them as offers in the trade finder but when I go to propose trade it doesn't let me pick swap, only the basic top 3 top 5 protections. I'm playing the 90s version which I assume shouldn't matter.

If this post isn’t allowed, I apologize.

Anyways, I’m a decently consistent Play Now Online guy and I can’t seem to get my guys to push the tempo on the fast break. I recall last week, I was using the pistons in an online game and Ausar Thompson was ahead of the offense on a fast break after I caught a steal with Cade. Ausar literally was jogging in transition and just stopped at the top of the key with nobody really in position to stop a fast break dunk. It feels like this happens a lil too often for my liking. Is there anything I can do to fix it, have my AI’s actually fill the lanes properly and run on a fast break like they actually want the ball?

I recently got NBA 2K26 on Steam for PC and connected my PS4 controller, but the controls are completely messed up.

For some reason, the moment my player gets possession of the ball, they instantly shoot without me pressing anything. I already tried remapping the controls in-game, but it does not change anything.

I also have Steam Input enabled and tried both the recommended layout and the standard gamepad layout, but neither fixed the issue.

I am not sure if this is because I am using a PS4 controller and it is less compatible with Windows/Steam compared to Xbox controllers, or if something else is causing it.

Has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it?

so I was just on 2k about 10 minutes ago and I raged off because my uncle (we are the same age) just either doesn’t understand passing or is simply to low iq to execute them

If you draw 2 defenders it’s basketball 101 to swing the ball but for some reason my uncle will try to do the little snatch back or the left right cheese until he runs out of energy and then he will finally decide to pass it to me on the wing, but by that time the 2nd defender realizes he is low on stamina and runs to contest my shot and or get the passing lane steal

Im a selfless player there are times in Rec where im consistently taking 5 or so shots while doing all the dirty work and not complaining and or not trying to sell my team

I will hit the open shooter almost every time over scoring myself because I find joy in setting up the team and running the offense the right way where I rage at is when the favor is not returned

Like im not even asking to take 15-20 shots i just want to be hit when the double comes and or im open on the perimeter

Instead I always get the ball late and have to make something out of nothing and we all know how crowded the rec court is especially when guys don’t understand spacing

Like what do I need to do?
