          bro its stressful, i was sniping while sniping for cheap players as well. so i'd make 50k in a day but spend that 50k. the last 100 cards i had to focus though. couldnt snipe at all.

          now that i have hill though, i think i can reach for King and be fine. at 1620. gonna take my sweet time.

                  Like most, I was biased against Bernard King last year, because of his lack of good 3-point shooting. But I'm a Warriors fan and 80's ball fan and so I ended up playing his Warriors version in Blacktop a lot. The guy was a terror, driving to the basket, and effective at moving midrange shots. I would imagine, with improvement to possibility of making contested, moving midrange shots, he can really be played as he did in real life.

                  Last year, I even found him to be reliable in shooting threes from the corner, if uncontested. And he could even take threes elsewhere, if hot.

                  He's definitely one of the reasons why I'm collecting cards, the other being hopefully being able to reach PD Wilt.

                    I played with King in blacktop once and he was insanely good. Him and Penny are both 6'7" but King's model looks twice his size. If you play Hill and King at the 3/4 you'll be pretty tough to beat!

                      Re: The collection grind...who's going for it

                      I am basically running my entire bench unit around King right now. I have 4 defenders + King. He handles the ball most possessions and runs the offense entirely. I am still getting used to him but his mid range is fantastic. He can also hit the 3. His layups are great. Dunking not so much..

                      I basically ran my bench through Tmac all the time and now that I have King I don't need Tmac anymore. King can keep the scoring up very well while my starters rest.

                      Getting that PD Jerry West will take a long time. Going from 1700 - 2000 will be really tough. I have all the current collection players, all the cheap historic players, and probably every non player item except maybe 35-40 rare jerseys/courts/shoes. Collection is sitting at 1710 right now. The new moments cards are helping I am picking up all the cheap silver and golds for about 1k a piece.

                        Are you guys with 1000+ card grinding or buying a lot of packs? I am at 1004 no vc spent. Would like to get to King but 700 more cards seem a lot of weeks away as I have sinked too much time into this game.

                          I'm buying packs, I'd rather spend a couple hundred bucks then days on the AH... then again I'm only at 1150 so you're not too far behind me and you haven't spent a dime

                            I'm at about 1050 and I think 1700 is more than weeks away. At least on PC, with much lower population magnifying rarity. Think I'm going to need several months of extra TBT Historic releases, Moments cards, special packs, and continued hunting for Team Items popping up.

                              All-in on the collection, 1750 and rising as the league packs now adding the moments/filling in last non-player pieces (and yes, probably spent way too much, but having fun). Going to have to start actively playing blacktop/leagues in hope of finding some the rubys/sapphires needed to finish historic teams (really want Rockets Diamond Drexler and Diamond Sabonis).

                                King will be on my bench with Manu, Tony parker, and antoine walker. pretty nice bench options.

                                im not patient enough to keep waiting for cards to drop for jerry west.
