I don't have much MT at the moment, but are there any suggestions to improve my lineup? I'm currently working my way through historic domination.

If you're running Current DMC, it's pretty much mandatory to run Current Wall.

Don't think there is much call for Curry in Domination. Shouldn't be taking more than minimum threes anyway.

Vince Carter is insane. Has missed ONE shot and I take threes with him and all that (I run a balanced offense) but Karl Malone. Just got him is IN ****ING SANE. So strong. My god. Get this card. And pick and rolls with that hall of fame pick and roller badge with magic is just insane. Put in the occasional pick and pop from the elbow. His defense too. Budget baller my dudes. 6-0 in the diamond league.

Pretty much every player is good if you use them properly, I mean it's Vince Carter and Karl Malone... I find players play their best for me when I first get them then you progressively notice their weaknesses

Vince Carter is the best offensive guard/forward I've seen or played with BY FAR. Karl beasts on the block mostly because no one uses strong good defensive power forwards.

Re: Lineup Roll call...what your squads looking like?!!?!

thank you. that has helped a lot.

I am stuck on the last game of historic domination and have tried so many different lineups all day im just pissed. i went ahead and beat the drummond challenge so now im around 53,000 mt. im just gonna grind out some blacktop and see if i can get some points. maybe even cheese some old domination games. i just cant bring myself to spending 60,000 on olajuwon when i can just save and get someone better. why is mchale so low right now??? wouldnt he be a good ruby??

I think what might be the most lucrative way to make MT by playing games is by playing the Klay Challenge with an economical lineup.

Re: Lineup Roll call...what your squads looking like?!!?!

So I'm getting a better idea of how some lineups work out...

AM Magic / 3&D / 3&D / DI Wallace / DI Sabonis

Can run this with 5-out doing high middle P&R between Magic and Wallace. Wallace is a good P&R man. And if defense collapses, Sabonis with Corner Spec and Catch & Shoot is a very reliable 3-point shooter.

The problem is if the Roll and the Drive off the P&R don't work out, there's not much going on and not much to do with remaining clock. The good thing is that, between Wallace and Sabonis, interior defense and rebounding is pretty sick.

Running this is probably better with AM MRR at PG, who's quicker thereby can be a better threat to drive off the screen.

AM Magic / 3&D / 3&D / 3&D / Sabonis

This is a lot more flexible. Can run 4- our 5-out with Magic ISO'ing and posting up. If help comes, just dish to open shooter. Can try the same with Wallace at 4, but then Wallace's defender cheats over and the only way to really punish that is to try to call Wallace to cut...but if he doesn't beat his man, then everything stalls.

DI Wallace / AM Marion / EM Pierce / RU Walker / DI Sabonis

Ran this in a recent MTO game as a end-of-game defensive lineup when a timeout gave me the chance to do a defensive unit and I had timeouts remaining so could switch out when/if I got the ball back.

I love using Wallace, or watching him, clamp down on an opposing Point Guard. Even fast/dynamic ones like Franchise have a hard time getting around him and really need separation to get a shot up past/over him. Larger guys like Magic or Harden absolutely cannot drive past him or post up on him. It's cool.

And even on offense, this lineup sort of works. Obviously, Wallace would be a horrific PG, but Antoine Walker, especially with the duo buff with Pierce, can play point forward.

And so you run a "backwards" 4-1 P&R with Walker as 4 calling for Wallace as 1 to screen for him. Walker's defender, unless a very stretchy 4, has a tough time following the play. If the 1 hard hedges to try and contain Walker's drive, then either he's letting Wallace go by on the roll, or if the 4 switches onto Wallace to contain the roll, the 1 is then stuck with being switched onto Walker.

Then Walker ISO's and posts up and, unless it's Magic, Walker will eat him up in the post.

I decided this week after getting around 650-700 cards to not bother collecting. I was gunnin for Rodman and go from there, but once I got Hakeem and realized that Dikimbe has D Anchor, he became expendable. I realized that only MMR was a realistic goal, and he really didn't interest me. In fact, only Grant Hill did but I knew that would take far too long. So I started selling everything back and was surprised at how much MT I made just from selling high quantities of lower tier cards.

Here's my lineup now after the shakeup.

Magic / Tony Parker

Allan Houston / Rip

Ruby Dan Majerle / Matrix

Larry Johnson / Ruby Dirk

Hakeem / Emerald Dikimbe

Still not sure how my 2/3 rotation will sort out, haven't played any games with AH or Thunder Dan but I love having the shooting around Magic.

Emerald Mutombo is so amazing on D. Great great post defender for 2k MT.

Hi All,

After wheeling and dealing the above are my lineup minus Hakeem. Was thinking of getting him but not sure if he is worth it. Have 80k mt to spend. I am considering just playing MTO until i get to 100k so i can get Kareem. Anyone think I should just go for another powerfoward instead with the 80k and pick my moments marc gasol so all of my squad can shoot. And can push robert horry to the bench? Thanks guy in advance. Any powerforward to recommend?

Im right there with you. i would suggest this. don't get kareem. use marc gasol grind it out a bit more and get kareem. or get an on the cheap mchale or malone to hold it down. that;s what im about to do. or im getting magic.

Thanks for the tip! Yeah may get Malone as he has hall of fame roller and most of my opponent pf wont be able to guard him inside. Gasol can stretch the floor outside. But do you think kareem is worth the 100k or should I upgrade my other positions and get a cheaper center? I mainly focus on my pg and c for my squad that's why my wing position is abit lacking.
