You can actually check your lateral quickness on your player if you go to your career tracker, go to a player on rotations and check their player card. Then switch between players until you get yours, switch to attributes and scroll all the way down. Your lateral quickness is the exact same as your perimeter defense rating.
Bruh I had a guard holding me in rec with a 96 perimeter and 90 strength… I couldn’t do shit on offense. Felt like my green window was very small, like I had a 65 3pt when I have a 85.
Its not worth it tbh imo all you really need (cause this game is stupidly broken) is like whatever it is to get bronze clamps n challenger cause if you playing good defense as is already.. the avg 2k player ain’t even making a 13% covered shot tbh and I’m not even talking about the avg 2k player fg percentage yet lol
Perimeter D changes the way ur player moves period offense & defense ... you don't get those weird animations that slow u down ... silver perimeter D as a guard us a must for me
Just made a 6'9 SG Ŵent up against a pg that was averaging 29pts and 10assist. Held him to 9 points and 4 assist shooting 3/15 from the 3. I only have 75 perimeter d and only 75 speed
What’s your strength rating? I have so much trouble I’m not sure if it’s my defensive assist strength or what but I slide and have so much delay on my movement on defense I really struggle defending.
I been wondering the Same, it seems like it only changes the animations, like I feel difference with 87 to 91 or 95 to 99 only difference is the animations you get

I have a question is there a big difference between 96 dunk and 94. Also if your under 6’5 does small contact dunks get you more contacts dunks or do you think it’s the same?
96 gets you hof skilled dunk and 94 is gold which give about the same amount of boost to dunks. But having it higher will give you less chances of getting blocked vs a 96+ block as opposed to 94 block which hardly anyone has so I wouldn’t invest that much into it
And small contact dunks will get you more contact dunks and is necessary if you don’t want to get dunk canceled by other small builds but won’t change anything if trying to dunk on a big
Strength is better than perimeter defense. So to answer your question it depends on what position/ game mode you plan on playing. For example, a top lock on 5v5 you want high challenger against comp guards and the strength will help you be bumpy especially as the main lock…
I don't get the point of these tests. Nobody cares about what the attribute stat on something like this does. Attributes do comparatively nothing for you, we care about what the badges do at each level. I.E. if you are testing an 85 perimeter, you should test it with the badges an 85 perimeter gets. I get why you do just the attributes but its pointless because once you throw badges in the equation its an entirely different result.
Actually no lol you only need above 50 strength and prim d to get cut offs … so if you have good d you good I rock 56 prim and 92 strength and I be locking everyone

High strength helps with cutoffs for sure but for contests and lateral quickness perimeter D is much better. I need to see you “hawk” those 3 pt shot hunters with 36 perimeter. You will get stunned like crazy and they can shoot right over you if they ain’t really driving to the basket. GB3 last build has 94 perimeter D- take that how you will.

Not true lol it happens with 87 also

85 Perimeter with 96 strength > 90 Perimeter with 65 Strength. Yes Immovable Enforcer works with perimeter D. Less blow by
Can you test the ball handling as the attribute? Is it only for animations and badges or it does something outside of that?
I been wondering the Same, it seems like it only changes the animations, like I feel difference with 87 to 91 or 95 to 99 only difference is the animations you get
Also affects the catches you get off passes. If you have a low ball handle, you’ll fumble passes more.
Hmm..so u can get away with a lil bit of per d n have a significant amount of strength for cuttoffs🤔🤔
I would still get at least 75 and high strength cuz you get basic clamps and immovable enforcer helps a lot

It won’t

Is having both high strength for like immovable gold/hof and like 85+ defence worth it?

Yes, they work hand in hand.

what yall think bout 71 perim and 90 strength
test whether having higher interior defense increase steal rate around the paint or is it only dependent on the steal rating
Perimeter is a great asset for lockdowns but if you can block and steal at a high rate than perimeter defense is stupid.
