[Top 10] NBA 2K15 Best Signature Skills That Are Great

 

10. Hesitation Stunner

Freeze your defender in place

Starting off the list with what is in my opinion the 2nd best dribble badge and move. The hesi is one of the easier dribble moves to do in-game and a hesi allows you to stun your opponent to get open for a shot or get inside driving lanes. A simple badge that makes a dribble move more effective it’s one dimensional but it works well in that one dimension

Why Hesitation Stunner Is Great :

  • Freeze defenders and get them to react
  • Opens up jumpers with ease
  • Simple to trigger compared to other dribble moves

Hesitation Stunner full details:

  • The player freezes the defender with a hesitation move

 

9. Killer Crossover

The most iconic and dynamic dribble move

Get highlights and scores with the crossover like some of the greatest NBA players. Like Hardaway and Iverson, you can do a crossover that allows you to get defenders reacting and get your driving lane and/or jump shot.

Why Killer Crossover Is Great :

  • Drive into the lane with ease
  • Openings are made with ease
  • Easy to trigger badge that gets the most ankle breakers out of all the dribble move badges

Killer Crossover full details:

  • The Player excels at dropping defenders with crossover moves.

 

8. Drop Stepper

Get defenders off you in the post with ease

There are a lot of badges for post-ups. A lot of them are important for a center or power forward build and a variety of them allow you to dominate but one badge, in particular, is the best and that's drop stepper. Drop steps are the easiest and most consistent post move your player can do and can almost always guarantee an open layup or dunk from the post. Again just like the dribble moves, it is pretty one-dimensional but that comes with the caveat of it being a lot more consistent in terms of scoring opportunities.

Why Drop Stepper Is Great :

  • Carves space in the post with ease
  • Guarantees an easy layup or dunk
  • Easiest post move to trigger

Drop Stepper full details:

  • Beats his defender in the post with drop steps

 

7. Tenacious Rebounder

Control the Rebound, control the game

The badge is as simple as it sounds. It makes rebound, both offensive and defensive, way easier. A big part of the game is rebounding so any boost to that skill makes it so easier to get other opportunities. Rebounds in themselves are not always equal to another shot or a defensive stop. If you are a skilled big man, however, you really can do some damage with this badge.

Why Tenacious Rebounder Is Great :

  • Almost always guarantees a defensive rebound
  • Boxout battles get you more rebounds your way
  • Rebound your team's shots for scores of your own or an assist

Tenacious Rebounder full details:

  • Relentless Rebounding skill

 

6. Dimer

Get you and your team running

Dimer is a badge that makes assists for open shots and layups go in a way easier. Paired with your offense it allows your teammates to make the shots a lot more when it's you doing the passing. Unless the opponent blocks their shot you know your pass is getting you an assist. The obvious weakness relies on you trusting your team and getting them open shots.

Why Dimer Is Great :

  • Double teams on you are pretty much ineffective
  • Get your open the easiest shots from the perimeter
  • Unless they get blocked inside shots by teammates are pretty much-guaranteed buckets

Dimer full details:

  • Boosts teammate shot% when passed to a teammate in the correct position to score

5. Pick & Roll Maestro

The simplest play that gets you and your team easy shots

The Pick and Roll are one of the simplest and easiest plays in basketball. It can always guarantee a scoring opportunity whether it's an open driving lane or jumper for yourself, setting up the roll man with a jumper or inside shot, or even using the action to kick out to a perimeter player for a jump shot. A badge that makes the passing from the pick and rolls more accurate, and gets you a higher percentage shot is a welcome one in any player’s arsenal.

Why Pick & Roll Maestro Is Great :

  • Gets your screener a direct and accurate pass 99% of the time
  • If the roll man gets defended then you get a high percentage for yourself whether it's a jump shot or a drive inside.
  • Pairs well with dimer and other badges as a supporting badge that works as a combo

 Pick & Roll Maestro full details:

  • Become a master at the Pick and Roll play as a ball handler

4. Limitless Range

 

Curry Range makes you a threat as soon as you pass half court

A three-pointer is already a dangerous shot as it is. A 3-pointer is already such a danger but limitless range means shots from even a distance from 3 go in with consistency. An argument for this being the best offensive skill is there but it is all about how you use it

Why Limitless Range Is Great :

  • Shots from even way beyond 3 have a consistent chance of going in
  • The threat of a 3-point opens the defense up well making drives and passes way more open

 Pick & Roll Maestro full details:

  • Become known for hitting 3-pointers even way beyond the 3-point line

 

 3. Pickpocket

No dribbler is safe with this badge

Pickpocket just makes any dribble move a risky endeavor. All Steal badges are good badges for getting defensive stops and fastbreaks but in my opinion, nothing beats pickpocket in consistency. Pickpocket makes double team steals easier, on-ball reaches are less risky, and overall makes defense way more fun. 

Why Pickpocket Is Great :

  • On Ball, steals are super fun and easy to get with this badge
  • The steals you get almost always trigger an easy layup or dunk for you or a highlight alley or pass to a teammate

 Pickpocket full details:

  • Ability to strip the ball from a ball handler 

 

2. Deadeye

Might as well leave yourself open

Deadeye is, in my opinion, a literal unstoppable offensive badge. Any shot that isn't immediately defended is an open shot. Whether it's midrange fades or pull-up 3s all manner of jumpers get boosted by this badge making it my pick for the best offensive badge in the game.

Why Deadeye Is Great :

  • Late Defenders do not affect your jump shot
  • Contested  shots go in at a lot higher clip
  • Badge works for any kind of jump shot

Deadeye full details:

  • Unbothered by any late defense and late contest on jump shots.

 

1. Lockdown Defender (Perimeter and Lockdown)

The quintessential defensive badge

Technically they are two different badges but the main difference is just on what position you play and they essentially have the same effect. Lockdown defender neutralizes the opposing player’s badges and wrecks their offensive capabilities, this makes clamping down on a one-on-one matchup super easy. Lockdown defense is simply just a cheat code and anyone who wants to dominate should have this badge.

Why Lockdown Defense Is Great :

  • Lets you dominate your defensive matchup 
  • Essentially neutralizes your opponent's offense.

Lock Defense full details:

  • Either counter all perimeter scoring badges or interior scoring badges
