Re: Full list of throwback cards on MyTeam

You're absolutely right. Wilt had no mid range game, his major source for points on the offensive end was to pound the ball 5 feet away from the rim and dunk it on those poor players defending him. Not to mention rules of offensive goal interference(damn can't think of the exact term) and goaltending weren't fully in place, and legend has it that Wilt often redirected his teammates' shots, Wilt's points output is definitely inflated.

Wilt would dominate any era easily and people act like there wasn't tons of great players in his era especially centers. Also dumbest thing I ever heard that rules of goaltending and offensive interference weren't in place in that time don't know where you heard that.

How long have you been watching the NBA? Seriously, just do some research about offensive interference(or lack thereof) in the era that Wilt played, with all the goaltending, over the back fouls that are called on big men in the paint nowadays, half of those fouls didn't exist or were barely called during that era.

Yes, Wilt was dominant in his era, but in this era, he would just be Dwight Howard with even less of a post game, maybe even like Deandre Jordan, athletic big that is an elite defender in the post, but lacking in an offensive game. He would still fit in quite well in today's game as a starting center, except you won't see his offensive numbers being inflated that much.

...or he would evolve like the rest of humans in sports in the last 50 years.

Especially centers? Bill Russell Dominated Wilts era. Aside from him and Wilt, not many come to mind that were truly dominant. If anything, Wilt is overrated for playing in an era which he was pretty much playing midgets and the rules allowed him to "dominate." His stats are insanely inflated.

And to the guy who said if LeBron is a 99 then wilt is a 110, I'd say if Wilt is a 110, then LeBron would be around 130

Shaq and Hakeem would have schooled Wilt had they played in the same era.

Re: Full list of throwback cards on MyTeam

No Kidd? Hard to believe since he has his player model as a coach in the game.

I was hoping for Shawn Marion, Kenyon Martin, Jason Richardson, Jason Terry (Hawks) Rip, Rasheed, Ben Gordon, Grant Hill, Sam Cassell, Sprewell...Oh well maybe next year.

It would make sense to me to have pretty much any former allstar who is washed up.

If you're wondering who tomorrow's throwback will be, let me save you some time: tomorrow is Carlos Boozer's birthday.

EDIT: I didn't realize Kobe just hit 32K points last night. That might do it too. Maybe both??? celebrate lakers' 2nd win lol

If they release a throwback Kobe I'll probably dump 170k MT and try to get him or Dirk and probably end up with nothing
