09 Jeff Green - http://2kmtcentral.com/16/players/9542/jeff-green
08 Carl Landry - http://2kmtcentral.com/16/players/4624/carl-landry
00 Jermaine O'neal - http://2kmtcentral.com/16/players/4520/jermaine-oneal

The Dirk looks OP af. Seems like another just about every other diamond, not only are what they good at boosted but all the other stats irrelevant to the big performance are boosted too.

Vince is disappointing, I am still waiting on his 91 overall amethyst. This card looks not as athletic as his ROTY card and not as versatile a scorer as the eventually to be released 91 Vince. I will stick with the ROTY one for now.

Jeff Green looks like he can be a very serviceable silver.. Decent all around SF, can hit the 3, defend, defensive rebound. If I recall, his athleticism should be better than they gave him credit for. May become a sleeper card.

Carl Landry looks is probably tough to fit into most lineups. He has some good qualities, decent post game, can hit the mid range, and pretty nice offensive rebounding. But he is too slow and has a lot of gaps. The pros just don't outweigh the cons.

I am really disappointed with this Jermaine Oneal.. seems like a useless card that can't do anything. I really enjoyed playing with the gold TBT JO last year from the pacers, he was a solid card with good post game, rebounding, and defense. But this JO looks useless, should not have been put into the game because there is 0 attraction. Also it looks like when they do release a pacers JO this year he will be underrated too.

What do you think?

Vince has only got 6 badges, when the ROTY got 14. You're basically trading athleticism for a decent 3-pointer, he's still a terrible defender. Not very interesting.

His 3pt is good on the ROTY, I think it's 75 or something like that, and I got limitless range and corner specialist on mine and he hits a solid percentage from 3. That is ridiculous that they only gave 6 badges to the 87 one.

ROTY Vince is better IMO. Just put a three point shoe on him if you want to shoot lots of threes. He also has a hot spot from three if I remember correctly.

Does Limitless Range do anything other than extend viable range...my assumption has been that it basically increases margin for error for long threes, reducing the dropoff. But it won't do anything for threes right at the line.

Originally I thought the same thing. However, when shooting 3s right at the line with players who have the limitless range badge, the badge icon activates. Also, I seem to hit more regular 3s with limitless range players then ones without it. It may be superstition and has not been confirmed, but I am pretty confident that limitless range increases both long distance as well as regular 3pt percentages.

they copied the old man badges. lazy. there are a few cards like this. you will notice, some of them if they have a new version for 2k16 it has different badges. he's not even that good of a 3 point shooter to trade off for his defending. he's horrible defender for gold card. only reason that ovr is high is because of playmaking and athleticism.

That's so frustrating.. it's just like Nash. Why do some cards get revamped with correct badges while others are just copy and pasted with incorrect badges???
