Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion
1.) A proper supporting cast sooner. He was good enough to alpha dog by his 3rd year. Probably really he was ready his 2nd season, but he missed those 64 games with the broken foot, and his best teammate had a broken hand for the playoffs.
2.) They had a way to shut down the Pistons those two seasons. Trading away Oakley was a good deal in the long run, but I suspect he may have made the difference defensively and possibly kicked off the dynasty a year sooner.
3.) MJ didn't get bored and go try to play baseball for most of two seasons, resulting in a (very good) Rockets team actually having a small window to win. If MJ hadn't retired that first time, I don't believe anyone could argue they wouldn't have won 8 straight ... and do so with a straight face.
So yeah ... the '96 Bulls were incredible. 72 win season but not the highest ELO rating (The Sonics had that), beat the team with the best ELO rating in history... but it wasn't a sweep. 4-2 and no wonder as that Sonics team was really good.
Imagine if the Bulls had pulled in just one more piece to compliment Jordan, Grant, and Pippen and been able to knock out the "Bad Boys" Pistons. Could have seen a 10 year run easily out of that team.
I think it's just a hold over from the original RttC ... and since the conference finals are finals, why invest the resources in changing it? That time can be spent on making the actual game better
I mean ... this is his entire playoffs stat line:
20 games/0 Starts, 183 minutes (9:15 average per game), 27 of 50 shooting, 16 of 29 Free Throws (55%!), 62 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal, 10 blocks, and 12 turnovers. <--- Has a playoff tier card.
The finals are even worse: 5 games/0 starts, 49 minutes and 54 seconds, 8/15 shooting, 8/11 Free Throws (making the above average look even worse since he actually did decent in the finals from the charity stripe), 17 Rebounds, 2 assists, 0 steals, 2 blocks and 22 total points.
I rest my case. Swaggy P definitely deserves a Playoff Card.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion
Strangely enough ... the '96 championship was against the highest ELO rated team in league history. People just don't appreciate how good the Bulls were. If Jordan had the following things, they could have won 10 straight championships:
1.) A proper supporting cast sooner. He was good enough to alpha dog by his 3rd year. Probably really he was ready his 2nd season, but he missed those 64 games with the broken foot, and his best teammate had a broken hand for the playoffs.
2.) They had a way to shut down the Pistons those two seasons. Trading away Oakley was a good deal in the long run, but I suspect he may have made the difference defensively and possibly kicked off the dynasty a year sooner.

As someone who has taught English 101 (Composition and Rhetoric, not basic grammar) ... you have no idea how refreshing it is to see someone who actually knows that word and what it means.
Festus Ezeli doesn't disgust you more? Swaggy P at least has the potential to be a 2nd or 3rd best player on a contender. Festus Ezeli went from having only a common card to being a PO card.

I wouldn't mind a 4k resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels) sized wide-screen one to use as wallpaper on my computer. I would obviously want to pick the specific players too ;pQG Tier: Legendary++

Quality is not good, but you get an idea of how good Rodman was in '96 against Kemp:

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion
I'm pretty sure 5 RC Pro / POTG Pro level cards along with 10 PO Pros should be enough to win +7s consistently.
Obviously 10 RC Pro/POTG Pro level cards would be better because you can pair one with your best PO Pro for the matchup and win the double and the other RC Pro/POTG Pro basically ensures you a 1v1 matchup win, so you could probably do it mindlessly if your deck reaches that levelQG Tier: Legendary++
