BEST POWER FORWARD/BACKEND BUILDS IN NBA 2K27 - BEST PF BUILD 2K27 transcript

YouTube, it's your boy Zachary back at you guys today with another video, man. We got back ends today. I'm doing three There's three back ends in this in this video. One's going to be more of like a pro am kind of back end, then we're going to do like a super switchable back end, like little less rebound, higher defense, and then more of like a twos or threes big. So, for those of you who do skip, I'm just letting you know, I'm not mad at you.

I do it, too. I'm not mad at you. Just skip ahead, check it out. Just look at all three of them. So, you see one, don't judge before you see the other two. I'm leaning towards 6'7s. Off rip, I think it's going to be the best option for us, especially if guards are going to be smaller and everyone's going to be a little smaller, I think it'll work. Yeah. Um yesterday's video, I thought it was a it was great. I mean, the builds in there are great.

You guys seemed to like the video. I appreciate all the love and support on that. Also, some people seem to think I was a little too fired up in the video. I'm sorry. Uh I was just Listen, I was excited. I was excited, man. I think they were great builds. I'm just confident. I'm confident in those builds, and I'm excited, so if I came off as a little too much, I apologize. We're toning it down a little bit today. I'm a little tired.

Late stream last night. You guys were in there, I appreciate you. Yeah, so we're going to do back ends today. I'm cooking up some 6'6s still and some 6'7 locks. It's just I don't know if we're going to be able to get >> [music] >> everything on those builds, if that makes sense. So, I'm really leaning towards high strength, and I know a lot of other people in the community are saying we're going to need strength. So, I just don't know like if we go on a 6'7 build, right?

And I have to get an 85 strength, I don't know if the 85 agility or whatever it is is going to be feasible. So, that's something I wouldn't mind holding off on until we actually get our hands on the game. Just cuz I don't want to give you guys something that ends up being really slow and a waste of money. Um the one I made yesterday is 1,000% the build I'm going to go with off rip, so. Just throwing that out there. Let's break it down.

This is probably more than likely going to be my day one Pro-Am back end build, and I'm going to break down exactly why I did everything I did. You got to remember, there's going to be three options here. This is going to be {quote} "unquote" comp option for if you're playing structured fives. That doesn't mean you can't use this in twos and threes. [music] I just think we can make a better option if that is something we were trying to go for.

[music] Off rip, I'm going 85 speed. Going to be more than enough, and I'm going to pair that with a 86 speed. Sorry, we're going 86 speed, 80 agility, 88 strength. Reason being, usually last year when we're making back end builds, no strength. [music] It's usually never needed for box outs. This year, it's tied into everything. And if you watched yesterday's video, it's the reason I went high strength on my lock. Vertical, off rip, we're going [music] 80.

That's going to get us everything we need. We do miss out on flash without caps, >> [music] >> but we can get there with caps. And if you are playing back end with a structured five, you're never going to be back on the break. >> [music] >> You're going to be sitting down there holding box, throwing some cheeks in the paint. That's what we're looking for and that's what we're going to get. Also, the rebounding is going to be the same on this version here, but I'm going to show you a couple different ways you can make it if you wanted, [music] let's say a higher three ball or a higher midi or the steel. >> [music] >> But, let me just break down why I did what I did and then we'll get into some changes you can make.

Best jump shot in the game, Quentin Grimes base for locks back ends. The threshold for it is a 73 now. So, that's going to fluctuate some things. I'm going 90 rebound, 82 O board. Why am I doing that? I get sink snatcher at 90. That's all I need. You got to remember, I'm not a popper in the park. So, if you that's what you're going for, then sure. We I have a a sick build for that, 95 board, all that good stuff. I just want enough to snag in a pinch and have my box out badges in the fives.

Box out boss. We get this with the 90 rebound. So, 90 rebound, we're going to get box out boss gold, which we can plus one or plus two, which is all we need in a five scenario. And then we're going to get sink snatcher at a 90 also. I would go [music] 82 O board, too for breaker and you're going to get crasher and then possession closer. Usually, I wouldn't go O board. But, I don't know enough to tell you like, yeah, you know, you don't need the O board.

But, it's so cheap, why wouldn't we just do it? And [music] worst case scenario, you have O board on the build. So, you're not a liability, you know, if you are down there on the break and you do have an option for a >> [music] >> a rebound. It's It's not the worst thing in the world and it's a really cheap attribute. This is where I think I did things differently than most of these people that are putting builds up.

Everyone went 90 steal off rip. I don't know why. I mean, I do know why. Gold interceptor, right? The way I did this, I'm trying to base it around some future caps as well, but also make it good off in the beginning. I'm trying to say [music] off rip. Uh, off rip less. I was getting yelled at. Somebody yelled at me. I feel bad now. All right. I'm going with a 93 to start [music] things off. Why? If you play back end, you're going to want glove along with interceptor.

Cuz you're going to blitz. So [music] why wouldn't I want my gold glove, my gold interceptor off rip? Plus, four [music] caps, I'm going to have maxed out interceptor at that 97. I'm going 93 in the beginning. Block, we're going to go 84. Really good starting point. Blocks look like they're decent this year. We're going to have an 80 vert, which is also going to be higher than a lot of people's. >> [music] >> Block shouldn't be an issue because we are going to pair that with an 80 interior.

Swing, usually interior 70, you're good to go. I'm going 80 cuz I'm sick and tired. Last year I played this game, bro, and I was under on everything. I'm sitting there in the paint. [music] I'm sitting there and it's just all over my face. [music] Ball sweat dragging down my face. I'm sitting there. I'm just getting jammed on. I'm going a little bit of interior. I don't want ball sweat on my face day one. [music] 80 interior perimeter.

I went with an 85. This is one of the things I think we can change once we get there, but let's get there first. Pass accuracy I'm going with a 70. Why am I going with a 70 when break starter is at 65? [music] Cuz I don't want to have to make a whole 'nother build just to get my silver break starter. And with this build, they cap by four and three. So, it's going to be two caps to get your silver break starter, which is huge.

Three-ball I'm going with an 80. 83 70 midi with a 70 free throw. [music] Fellas, we are not a guard. We are not a 2BH. We're sitting in the corner with Quentin Grimes base. We're going to be A-OK here. A-OK, but if you want to change it, I'll tell you how to change it. Just give me a second. Finishing-wise, again, I'm not going anything super crazy. We're going to go 70 driving dunk. This caps to I believe an 83 or an 85.

But by the time I cap everything I want to cap, I'm probably going to have a different build. Cuz I don't think I'm going to >> [music] >> be too worried about the driving dunk in the beginning of the game. Or for the first month. I want to cap my steal first. I'm going to cap my speed first. >> [music] >> My pass accuracy. There's a lot I'm going to cap before I get to the driving dunk. And then I'm going to go with a 45 standing.

Where do I put the other cap? Oh, free throw. Sorry. Yeah. 70 driving, 45 standing. 45 standing is going to get us both the animations we need. We are going to get high flying denier. Not high flying denier, um aerial wizard. >> [music] >> So, we got to get a putback in there. We got to get a putback in there. This is what I would do for a beginning stage competitive Pro-Am or as they call it now Crew HQ back-end build.

You kind of have a little bit of everything cap breaker wise. I'm not too worried about all this. >> [music] >> And we will be able to ISO a little bit. Once we do get caps, if you do continue to rock out with this build. But the main thing that I'm looking for to cap is the pass [music] accuracy. From a 70 to a 77, I think we're going to be in good shape here. >> [music] >> Defense 85 perim, that could change though.

Bear with me for a second. There are some things you can change if you want a little more offense and I'll break that down for you. Rebounding, nothing's going to cap cuz we already have that maxed out. We have everything we need. We got box out boss, the other sink snatcher, all that good stuff. And then for the physicals you could go speed. I don't think you're going to need flash. I don't I don't you're on a back-end build.

You really it's not going to be worth getting back there. I would just blow the speed out, go 89 speed, 80 agility and you're in good shape. And then the vert [music] down the line. This is what we get for our final result. We're a glass cleaning lock. That's a beautiful name. A beautiful beautiful name. Attribute wise, if you want to look at it in a full screen perspective kind of take some things [music] in a little.

Maybe you guys can make it your own. Like this is what's going to work for me. What works for me not work might not work for you. And I've said this in a lot of videos. I'm giving you a template to work off of. You don't have to make exactly what I make. You might not like it. I might not like your build, but that's how it's going to work. I want to show you a quick tweak you could make to this build and don't worry, I'm not going to scroll through the whole thing again.

I'm just going to put them up here. I'm not going to make you guys watch me twiddle my thumbs for another 10 minutes. So, this is what we're working with. I know the phone's dying. We're on three. This is going to be my park build. When I play park, I'm making one of everything we play park. A lock, a PG, and a pop. This is going to be my pop. I'm going 6'7. Uh, I didn't just do that. I did do that. Okay. Let me break down why I did everything I did. 95 D Reb, 88 strength.

All I'm going to need. I'm going to have all my defensive badges, money, my pass accuracy going to cap, my play making caps very well. Interior, 85 interior, silver wall up. Uh, I'm going to have seat belt with the 85 perimeter. I'm going to have challenger. >> [music] >> 83 steal is my threshold for silver glove. I want that just in case I have to blitz. 84 block with the 85 interior is going to be money. Like I said before with the three point, I'm a pop.

Same thing with the back end builds. I'm going to slip I'm going to be slipping most of the time. The three's just there to show. If you get what I'm saying. 95 D Reb, we're going to have pretty much [music] every defensive badge that we could possibly want as high as it can go. Driving dunk at a 72. I'm not going for contacts here. I'm going for just [music] dominance. Defense, rebounding. I went 71 standing because when I do cap my dunk, I will get Blake Griffin dunk packages.

Somebody put me on to this in the comments yesterday. I completely just went went away. I'm going to My dunk's going to cap. I believe it's like an 83 or an 82. It's not going to be crazy, but I'm not going for contacts. I would much rather cap my pass accuracy. And the 70 standing at a 70 standing, you are going to get elite rim pulls, which is going to be huge for [music] the slip. Especially if you're playing pop and you go 40 standing dunk, you're going to have issues.

Like I said, we're not going to have contact standing. We're going to [music] have elite rim pulls, which is going to be more than enough to get us going. This is the switchable lock I was talking about. It's going to be [music] a 6'7 potential for a 99 3. It's also called a glass lock like the other one, but there's a lot different with it. Like this [music] build, the first thing that's going to pop out us is the defense and the board.

So, we're going to have an 87 board that's going to get us sink snatcher gold, along with the potential for a 99 perim. We have [music] 90 steal, which is going to be gold interceptor. We do lose the interior, but we also gain contact dunks with caps, which is beautiful. The 90 speed [music] is going to be a nuts agility 86. That's going to get us seat belt along with the rebound, [music] which is nice. 85 strength, we're going to get bruiser and we're going to get a movable on gold to start off. 83 three ball, we're going to get limitless.

It's going to be more than enough to shoot. And then we get Quentin Grimes base like I said again at the 83 at the 73 or 73 midi or three. So, you're going to have limitless and all of this other stuff. And if you want, if you [music] with caps, if you will rock out with this build, you're going to be able to cap your play making, too. [music] So, you'll get Jimmy escape. And you want to show you the caps real quick.

Cap breakers. 87 driving dunk, we're going to get caps. We are going to get the 80 ball handle, which this year I think is solid cuz that's Jimmy is great [music] and D book's not really a thing anymore. Perimeter if I mean the interior if you want to cap and steer you're going to get your 80 interior. You can't really go wrong with this. I really don't think you could go wrong with it. If I was to make a 6 7 lock beginning of the game, this is what I would go with. >> [music] >> I know I've been a little off on the taller lock builds cuz this is what I would do.

I would make it more of a switchable opposed to [music] it just guarding ball because I would go rebound if I did go anything over 6 6. This is what I got for you guys. Badges see badges. Defense you get pretty much everything [music] you could want except for glove but that's we can get there with some caps. Plus ones plus twos are going to be really solid. Rebounding is the biggest part of this build. You're going to get [music] box out breaker crash you have every rebounding badge possession closer and then you're going to get sink snatcher on gold.

Which is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. So I think we're in a good place with this build. Here I'll animations wise are going to be solid. Yeah. That's what I got for you guys. It's going to wrap it up for today's video fellas. If there's anything else you want from me I'll keep dropping the vids. I love doing this man. This is [music] like this is my passion, you know, I'm locked in. But I appreciate you guys liking the video.

If you didn't see yesterday's video that's going to be my day one lock and I'm sure a lot of you are looking forward to that. [music] Maybe not. Some of you guys don't like me some of you do which is fine. No problem [music] with it. Yeah. Leaving you here. It's your boy Zango. Peace.
