They need to buff contact dunks. They trigger rarely (and always the same 3-4 animations) and 50% of the time i get very early even if i’m sure i didn’t mistime it. They’re broken
They definitely did something to the consistency of dunks with the Season 2 patch. I got taken out of dunks quite a bit in Season 1 but never during dunk attempts that are basically a given. Now I'll even get forced into a layup when attempting the dunk meter with a defender behind me not even close enough to hold me
Getting taken out of dunks where the defender is on your hip and they can just glitch infront and get a block. I have a 6’6 max wingspan with 93 and have even been taken out of dunks by 6’5’s that were behind me with low interior and block
Right stick dunking is totally broken and non-responsive on-line. 2k really needs to revert back or tweak that. It's like your being force to lay up or shoot 3s, Randoms already play weird as it is. Players who are above average are being penalized because they are good at doing it all. No slasher, slasher build should be taken out animations completely, where the ball just drops out your hands. Your triggered and geared up to dunk and out of blue helps comes now your laying up and vulnerable to get blocked. 2k stay rewarding non slashing builds but make slashers and well rounded blanced players work hard. Make it make sense😒
Yea they really ruined dunking. I have a 93 dunk and i got 6’2 guards brushing me with an arm hair and its taking me out the animation. Im really not having fun playing the game rn because of it smh
I have trouble triggering meter dunking and I have 99 driving dunk and 90 vert SF build. I feel like the Rhythm shooting is confusing the game and making it delayed or not ever responsive
I haven't bought NBA2k25 yet, but am hoping to when I get paid next month, I'm looking to create a SG with some dunking, mid range, playmaking and some defense. I definitely want to have at least an 80 driving dunk .
Then you better make a 6’3 pg I got 93 driving dunk 92 3pt 84 mid 92 ball handle 91 swb and 91 steal. Basically can do everything on the court except mid fades but ya know it’s kinda advanced stuff don’t need it. 6,6 is good def spot up, like you won’t be able to play make properly cuz it would be hard for you to get to the rim and get a double team pts are way better at this
i feel like 2k shafted russ. the trigger distance for his tomahawks is relatively short unfortunately (free throw line ish?) and if you try to meter with it youll get athletic front tomahawks most of the time. lebron has way better takeoff distance overall but gets blocked significantly easier. the problem ive had with using russ is just that i cant even get his tomahawks to trigger most of the time regardless and if i do meter it ends up being a off two.
@@LakerFan yea im not sure why they did it seems like a weird nerf but its also the reason theres a standing dunk requirement on the package. idk if they just did that to try and make people create their own dunk packages without the nba player packages or smthn but its so annoying
Do you think Jordan is worth the extra vert investment from 65 for posterizer on a small guard to be able to dunk from the free throw line? Also no thoughts on Malik monk?
eyo why is jordan dunk package not available for me i made my build specifically 83 driving dunk and 72 vert for it not only it is not available it is not even visible in dunk style creator!
have you noticed differences on the dunk meter since the patch laker? to me it feels a lot worse but it might just be placebo/skill issue. also i think you cant preload dunk meters anymore.
Def can’t preload meters, but I’m not sure as an overall whole, I felt like meter was pretty bad pre patch too. The 6’10 I’m on is a tough judge cause it’s a whole new build and height ETC
Glad to see I'm not crazy. I've been tryna preload dunk meters and it hasn't been working at all. Like literally a 0% success rate. Very unnecessary change imo. Dunking was good enough for me in Season 1
everyone complaining about meter dunks but my 6'8 99 dunk build (with cap breakers so the build is still well rounded) doesnt miss a meter dunk if im not getting taken out of the animations and it happens alot less
@@pxppy150 input for hopsteps is down right or down left while driving at the basket and holding turbo. you can also do them by doing double right/left on the right stick while driving or by tapping the shot button. you must be doin one of these
Y’all need realize this videos is made off opinions and not that all these dunks work. Play how you want and stop being a sheep. I want different builds not bunch a sheep
anything that seems slow or has a very close takeoff / long windup because if someone just runs into you during the windup it will cancel the entire dunk. some of the off two dunks are good for cuts and finishing when youre already close to the basket but you generally wanna try to stay away from off two dunks if you can help it. generally you also want to avoid things animations that cock the ball back far or move it around a lot outside your players frame (back scratchers, windmills) because your myplayer will most definitely slam the ball into anyone trying to chase you down. like laker said tomahawks are good for the half court but not great for fastbreaks. the dunk logic itself is also pretty weird theres a couple dunk packages that will always take priority for some reason for example if you have the lebron package equipped you will almost always do a lebron dunk if you can but thats something you can lab out just check what dunks you get most of the time with the packages you have equipped, if you dont like those animations take off the package (thats why its better to have only a couple of packages equipped and add/remove its easier to keep track of what animation is from what package). like laker said if youre 80 and below driving dunk you just want safe two hand dunks that dont get blocked easily. if you have 90+ you can go for tomahawks and try to boom on people with dunk meter.

LakerFan, i appreciate u always making helpful content for build creations
Keegan Murray is literally quick drops.
Athletic hangs off one 65 dunk still a insane dunk, especially one animation you jump crazy high dunk animation ive never seen blocked.
ben Simmons has some pretty good standing dunks and driving dunks in his package for pretty low stats
How many dunks should you equip in your dunking style creator?
What abt Malik monk dunk style ?
So if you have a higher driving dunk should you not equip the ones that you pointed out for lower dunk ratings?
always appreciate these 🙏🏽
Not having klay Thompson is crazy
Does dunking meter feel off to you ? I have it on legendary. And I can’t dunk on shit.
what’s the best meter for dunking, I seem to always get very late or very early
I haven't bought NBA2k25 yet, but am hoping to when I get paid next month, I'm looking to create a SG with some dunking, mid range, playmaking and some defense. I definitely want to have at least an 80 driving dunk .

Waiting to see a content creator show us the JaVale McGee dunk package.
Ye bruh still waiting
the one thing i hate about the lebron dunk package is that regular one hand standings are in there 😭
😂 damn for real? Ever since I took it off I haven’t been getting the terrible one that I hate to see
@@LakerFan god i really need that starter 4
@@LakerFan yea im not sure why they did it seems like a weird nerf but its also the reason theres a standing dunk requirement on the package. idk if they just did that to try and make people create their own dunk packages without the nba player packages or smthn but its so annoying
Can you do nba dunks in proving ground and park or is it really only my career?
How bout Kat dunk style where it’s basically MJ for bigs?
If you don’t equip two foot dunks would the player lay up the ball or will dunk the ball with one foot dunks animation?
Would you still recommend ben simmons for those 6’5 - 6’9 with standing dunk
Draymond green is nice
Yea its good & it’s low requirement too
Is there a video to teach us more on the dunk meter it's hard to do
Yo laker. Off topic but what pass style do you use?
probably hali its the best one 89 pass
Magic is better but requires 93 pass acc + starter 4
@@zbt62magic is not better imo
Haliburton if I can get it, none if not. Been messing around with Ja if I can’t afford it too, not sure how to feel
@@LakerFan if I got 85, go none?
Do you think Jordan is worth the extra vert investment from 65 for posterizer on a small guard to be able to dunk from the free throw line?
Also no thoughts on Malik monk?
YES💯
Don't sleep on the Jalen Brown dunk package
They need to revert the dunk meter! They broke them 😭😭
Yea 93 dunk and haven't got a contact since season 2 started
eyo why is jordan dunk package not available for me i made my build specifically 83 driving dunk and 72 vert for it
not only it is not available it is not even visible in dunk style creator!
Sadly you have to reach starter 4
Clyde gives you a lot of the Westbrook dunks which are good. You don’t look quick drops off 2?
Is javale not worth it?
Do u have it equipped? I’m tryna find out the same
Full layup tierlist plz?
Dunk
And Giannis,Kat,Trey Lyles and draymond are solid dunk packages
Best lay up style for a 85 layup ?
Is 85 good or just decent? Think those are mid packages
have you noticed differences on the dunk meter since the patch laker? to me it feels a lot worse but it might just be placebo/skill issue. also i think you cant preload dunk meters anymore.

Flashy hangs of one is a great dunk package for only 70 driving dunk but idk if it works on proving grounds or not
Giannis vs Dwight dunks, it’s a 2 point difference.
everyone complaining about meter dunks but my 6'8 99 dunk build (with cap breakers so the build is still well rounded) doesnt miss a meter dunk if im not getting taken out of the animations and it happens alot less
So essentially the only way to dunk is to have 99 dunk😐 do you see how ridiculous that is
Good to know forgetting to put on 36 - 40 dunk might not be worth a delete 😂 🤔
No love for Pippen? Been my go to for years
Front clutches is also a good dunk package
Laker why do I keep hop stepping when I’m trying to dunk w the left or right?
either your stick got crazy drift or your input is just too low to the left or right
@@mikeesteves8427 you think so? I don’t think it has drift tho my brotha
@@pxppy150 prolly just user error then
@@mikeesteves8427 hmm it’s like sometimes he dunks and sometimes he does the hop step lmfao idk if it’s me or what (it’s probably me)💀💀

Anyone know the best motion style for a 6’10, been using Anthony Davis but seen a lot with Bam if anyone could help it would be much appreciated
needed ts🙌
Malik monk is amazing but feels worse after patch idk why. Also park hangs off one super op for 70 driving dunk
It’s good for the most part don’t like that close to the goal off 2 animation, i unequipped
Which build is your fav to use?
Switcheroo is insane for meter dunks
The KOBE DUNK PACKAGE IS SLEPT ON
Best Animations 75 dunk ?
Lakerfan please help! I always get very early timing on contact dunks with the meter! I know I’m not very early on these! Please help!
Finally 🎉
They nerded tf out contact dunks before the patch i was dunking everything now i ger knocked the animation and barely get dunks
As long as you press x or square you’re good
You forgot *Zion Williamson* Dunk Package besides his Oop Package
Hangs off One has been nearly unblockable for yrs
Mines don’t show quick drop off one foot
can you just give me all the protective dunk packages i’m not tryna use back scratchers and shit
Y’all need realize this videos is made off opinions and not that all these dunks work. Play how you want and stop being a sheep. I want different builds not bunch a sheep
You talk too much
We don’t care what you want
Thanks for the info. What are the packages not to run??? Would love a reply from anyone
I may make a vid on dunk packages to avoid eventually as well

Don't use Shaq for a big man. His standing animation cocks it back and gets blocked. It's bad
Pack 💪🏾
they just had to sprinkle a couple of terrible animations into almost all of the good dunk packages
@mikeesteves8427 - That's why it's always better to just use the individual packages. I use signature packages for the exclusive dunks but almost all of them have off-two dunks that I'd rather not have equipped.
Ja, Lebron, Sprewell and Russ are my favorites tbh
