With all players having a gold dimer badge equipped, the team shooting percentage is always around 70-75%. Hondo is no pure 3pt shooter, to get him hot you need to take some shots inside the 3pt line because he has no hot zones outside. His speed, passing and rebounding are also real good for a SF and his defense is also ok.
    Do you think Hondo is better than Ruby Kobe at SG? I ask since Ruby Kobe does not have a great 3 pt rating 82 and his D with shot defending is only 60?

        I haven't tried Ruby Kobe but Hondo should be much better. Kobe will be better at dribble moves and has smoother animations though, so if you want you SG to have the ball in hand all game Hondo is not the best choice. He's a really great secondary scorer type.

          Thanks for the info. I have Magic at PG so he would have the ball most of the time on offense.

            You can always try the Ruby which is pretty cheap and sell him back after. Animations should be the same.

              No he is not. If you are looking for a better SG go for Onyx Pistol Pete. His shooting is absolutely insane. I had to sell mine because that guy is so good you don't want to use anybody else.

              Atm I am building up a second 100 % proper historic lineup for my man Schrempf. I am just missing one very expensive player!

              Ruby Thomas\Sapph Price
              Sapph Jordan\Sapph Wilkins\Sapph Dumars
              Ruby Pippen\Schrempf
              Sapph Johnson\Nance
              ????\Ewing\Daugherty

              Which Team? Who is missing?

                You can't go wrong with Hakeem or Wilt (more defensive focused)
                Also I would suggest you to get Sapph Oscar (95 arted strong PG) and Sapph Mullin (killer from 3 and great defender)

                  I've played with both and Onyx Pistol as well. Hondo is easily the best shooter. With 1 red ring he is nearly a 99 on all shooting stats. I feel like he gets blocked a lot on layups. He has solid defense and gets a steal or two a game for me but has trouble staying in front of the super-athletic guys. I have him paired with 88-89 Jordan and is a wonderful secondary scoring option, wouldn't rely on him to get his own shot.

                  Ruby Kobe gets to the bucket better than most players. He can hit open shots but mostly you want him if you need someone to finish around the basket. Best with the ball in his hands. He's quick so that helps with defense but I felt like people still scored on him (probably that low shot contest).

                  Onyx Pistol works great as a secondary scorer or a primary scorer. He's quick, shoots well, good playmaking too. Doesn't dunk but his layup package is really nice. A bit similar to Hondo on defense but I would give Hondo the edge even though Pete is quicker. I got fewer steals with him.

                  So it depends on how much you value defense and what you need on offense (spot up shooting, driving, a bit of both).

                    I'm about to sell onyx Kobe (who I just got from the random item code). How much should I sell him for and who should I buy with the MT(~390,000)?

                      Re: Whats your lineup/lineup help thread

                      Updated line-up is:

                      Lillard / Westbrook / Robertson
                      Kobe / Jordan / Wilkins
                      LeBron / George
                      Bird /
                      Durant
                      Olajuwon / Russell


                      sadly I bought Kobe for 360k and now he's under 300k. Although he's great, Im thinking bout selling him to grab some of the new rubies, espicially that Blake Griffin looks nice. But Onyx Kobe is so good aswell.
