Also now in our Wiki: http://www.nba-live.com/nbalivewiki/ind ... Playstyles

As I said in another thread, they look pretty good to me. They seem less restrictive and limited than the MyPLAYER Archetypes in NBA 2K17, and more in line with the types of players we see in the league. Even the Playstyles that aren't the "Balanced" type still seem pretty balanced, reflecting the abilities of the players that fall under those classifications.
