Don't get me wrong, he's great but all things considered i had pretty similar production from silver vince so i might just sell the onyx and spend the mt elsewhere.

I think that all of these cards are overpriced.
When LBJ who is rated 98 costs 50k fully badged, and Durant who is rated 95 costs 35K,while Sapph Dominique is almost free, these cards are severely overpriced. You won't notice a big difference in game, surely not enough to justify spending tons of MT (gameplay-wise). In my oppinion a good player with a team that costs 150K can beat any of these teams costing 2-3 MM. Of course many of those players are overpriced due to rarity and collectors preference.

However aside of the fan/fun factor, gameplay wise why would anyione spent 500K MT for each one Onyx Vince/T-Mac, when he can get ruby Kobe/Lebron together for 100K?

I agree with your points with one exception. There is no one in this game that like MJ. He costs a ton but well worth it.

I am planning to sell him though and pick up TMac since I'm done with RTTP and there's nothing left to play for. Although the 3pt point cheese is really discouraging me from wanting to play this game in the current state.

True
MJ especially the 95-96 let alone the ruby version is the best card in the game, and thus this is the only card that justifies the price.

Having said that again I think a better player using Ruby Kobe, can matchup up quite ok against an average player using Ruby MJ.

Regarding 3 pt cheese last night I lost by a guy who shot 73 shots in the game, 53 of these were 3 pointers. It is silly for someone to believe that you can stop this. It is impossible to guard agains offenses of 4-5 seconds shooting a 3. He had 35% in 3 pt but still this is 56 points only from 3. Combined with some steals from his zone and auto double team, he won the game by 7. 2k should definitely patch it

Patch what? Defense or offense?

I haven't lost with ruby mj he's ridiculous. Never faced another ruby mj though. If he loses I'll have to sell him haha

I sold Yao for 350k and I bought Bird and Pippen to complete my 92 Dream Team.

My new Top 5

Bird 300k
Ruby Pippen 200k
Onyx Steve Nash 180k
Onyx Pistol Pete 135k
Ewing 115k

I didn't lose for 35+ games straight in RTTP. I didn't lose for the entire 1/2/3 seeds with MJ.

Although this was before the patch.

No 92 Dream Team team is complete without MJ!
