Let me know how that works out for you. Thought about running him at PF also. He is fast enough, so he shouldn't be too much of a liability and his onball d is amazing. Also you will have no problem backing smaller pfs down in isolation in the post.

all of the Russell's are close so I would likely go for the most common and cheapest one...that I could sell if I didn't like. I won't be buying BM Nash for a number of reasons. they didn't fix his badges right? I got Diamond Stockton. Also would rather have AS CP3. 2k is clueless. If they really wanted the BM to be taken seriously...they should've released all of the cards from day one. then it really would be a "black market". The trade of is getting great card that you can't sell. Its pointless to do that now when you can get almost as good a card for fraction of the cost. I agree about Magic.

It's actually pretty good news that the first historic diamond released seems to be more common than any other diamond within Moments/DPOY/TBT or AllStar packs.

What if 2K finally realized, that the terrible pack odds broke the market?
People felt scammed investing in VC and not getting anything, which led thousands to 3rd Parties buying MT directly and causing prices to rise tremendously.

If Historic Diamonds become pullable, they would finally take a step towards the customers. Imagine these guys coming and flooding the market! Prices on diamonds would drop like crazy - in all categories
I hope this is real

(these are all historic diamonds revealed so far?)

Historic Diamonds likely have same diamond odds... But they can be pulled from ANY pack, which will make them way more common.

Well i don't see any difference between the bill russell out already and the BM one so i don't see why anybody would waste time getting into the BM and spending an extra 400k for basically the same card.

The cheapest I've seen one on PS4 is 420k but regardless of that I already told you why(because it is a better version than the one out now and they want the best version). I'm just saying everybody doesn't see things the same way.

Where did you get this information? Historic cards come exclusively from VIP packs. Why would diamond historics be an exception?

Nope, I've pulled Bulls John Salley from a league pass pack. Basically, regular packs are last year's 50/50 packs.
