      So this paint mashing Shit has been the new “tween” in this game all year, and i think i might have found a good solution to not only stopping it…but dishing the shit right back. I’ve been running this combo for a few days and I’ve gone up against some of the sweatiest paint mashers that this server has to offer….and these 2 players on the court at the same time have not only the speed, length and strength to block everything, they mash out themselves.

      This duo is: Nate Thurmond as your 4 and Shaq as your 5

      Now if you rely on your 4/5 to shoot, disregard this entire thread. But if you don’t take a lot of outside shots with them and you just want to stop mashers, grab a shit Ton of boards and body the paint on offense…this is the best solution I’ve found.

      Giannis might be quicker than Nate with a better shot, but he’s super expensive and he isn’t as good in the interior defensively as other years. Nate doesn’t have the outside shooting but him and Shaq bully shit. Try this combo out and tell me what you think. Haven’t lost a game since i tried them with switch all defense, has been working flawlessly.

      Also running Rudy at the 3 creates a lot of havoc for your defender with this trio, gay gets a ridiculous amount of open shots because of the double screens Nate and Shaq set, and it’s hard to break those screens.

          @jdrflip it’s all based on play style i think 🤔

          For me, it seems to work. I can get Nate to roll enough and hit corners to free up space. Once again this is only a line up for paint mashers. I have a few different looks for PNR guys, runners, etc. But having both of these guys in your arsenal is a good look when you do face the inevitable strictly paint masher

              I will do anything to stop paint mashing. Shit is sickening!! Played a bum in play now online and all he did was paint mash with Paul George…he was talking shit all game! I beat him and he called me trash for running plays 😂 nigga only had points cause paint mashing. I’m not no top player, but I ain’t trash I can beat your average 2k player.

                    @508 yup, they’ll have to fix this shit before then. That’s going to be straight up cheating

                        The thing is they are fixing EVERYTHING else. How hard is it to adjust the inside succession rate? Or inside shot contest? Let it be a VC glitch and they patching it within 48 hours.

                          I was not excited for this Shaq card but even without evo he quickly became my favorite center in the game. There are very few centers who can defend Shaq in the post, plus he grabs boards over everybody.

                          I can’t wait for a Shaq that can shoot.
