I pulled the Butler and planned on selling him, but he just fits my team too well. People might think I'm nuts for using Majerle over Lebron, but he plays just like Kiki for me, so the continuity is comforting. The fact that they're both white guys with dark hair with the same icon for passing and 3PT is their first playcalling priority makes things so much easier. I locked in the Gilmore the other day and absolutely love him. I'm going after Robinson next, and he'll take Chambers' spot.

How is that Hakeem?

i was trying to sell him for a minute but now he has become essential to my team. once i actually really started using him and realized that post game is my bread and butter.. his defense and rebounding good too. i remember when he was like 80,000k and i found a 57k one of him and i tried to sell him for like 4 days and couldn't .. once you figure out the up and under and the spin move he is money.

i think he is around 35k to 40k now..

Haha same thing happened to me man tried to get rid of him for a week straight now he's a staple. Now that I finally mastered up and unders he is my favourite center. I can't wait for the one that can hit 3s and Drive!

I only think you're nuts for not selling Lebron if he's only going to be the last man off your bench. That's a lot of MT you could get back. Otherwise, I like your team!

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

I think I could improve my bench, but I think I am ready to start MTO with my lineup currently. Mostly been playing Blacktop since I completed Dom/Historic Dom.

PG- Walt Frazier
SG- Ruby Klay
SF- Amy Marion
PF- Ruby Dirk
C- Ben Wallace

Bench: Ruby Lillard, Ruby Rip Hamilton, High Flyer Iggy, Ruby Jerry Lucas, Ruby Bill Cartwright, Ruby Harden, Amy Magic, Sapphire AD

lebron just doesn't shoot well enough for my liking and he is my favorite player... i hate kevin durant and find myself using emerald durant all the time.. was going to get ruby durant but instead just took prince for cheap so i can grind collection...

the ruby mike bibby is a gem ...

Thank you for the feedback. I put King, Hill and Lebron in there because I rotate Kobe, King, Hill and Lebron. I wasn't expecting to pull Butler last night, and now I'm starting him. Before that, I had Kobe starting and Lebron as his backup (my 2s and 3s are interchangeable). I'm still trying to decide which of them I like the best. Jimmy seems to be a combination of my favorite things about Kobe, Hill and Lebron except that Kobe fade.

You're right though, I should probably sell that Lebron.

Have you tried the Ammy Lebron? I'm trying to decide whether to keep Lebron or Kobe, and oddly enough as a pure shooter, I find Lebron to be better. I expected to prefer Kobe as a shooter and Lebron driving to the hole, but Lebron seems to make about half his layups while Kobe just goes around everyone and lays it in off the glass if he doesn't dunk all over them. But even contested jumpers, Lebron's shot is money for me.

Just get into MTO. There's no need to run the table in the early leagues since the rewards for going perfect are just crappy player packs. Going perfect doesn't matter until Emerald League, and even then you just get a Diamond Shoe that may or may not be a big deal.

The longer you wait, the better the average team will get.

Ah, the Ammy makes a big difference. Kobe is insane too. When you're talking about players that good and similar size, you really can't go wrong with either. I hated that Sapphire Lebron, but the Ammy is money. I think they even changed his release - but wouldn't that also change the release on the Sapphire too?

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

Swept the pink diamond league on my second try after adding Magic to the squad. Snagged a fully badged out Amethyst Jimmy Butler last night for 40k as well. I just prestiged and hopefully I can have PD Timmy by all star break. I'm going to sell AD and Hakeem for Diamond Mutombo when his price drops, hopefully by next week.

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

Used Ruby Klay for 2 games after I snagged him for 24k...Let's just say I put up better numbers with the emerald one. I gave him a chance to redeem himself by trying to get him to tie a game to go to OT-nope. Shooting 42% from 3 with those stats on open looks? Sold his *** asap for 30k so I actually made a profit lol. Sadly the best shooter I have used this year by far is Rewards Quentin Richardson with his Dynamic Duo boost, absolute money. Too bad his mate is silver Kyle Korver

Edit: Seeing Klay has the Unpredictable badge which makes him streaky. I guess I forgot his gold car had it last year too, so annoying
