That's funny I am a Damon Stoudamire away from getting CB4! Just need some of my auctions to sell then I can grab him.

Just bought Bargnani with a bid of 49k. Man, his D is so bad. I want to try him out but his D is such a liability, takes my overall team defense from a 90 to an 83. Pains me to pay 50k for a card I may not be able to use.

Edit: Just got my first diamond of 2k17... CB4 WOO

Also, this Jose Calderon card is just pure wetness. Forget about the D, I am starting him.

Just remind yourself that 50k was really for Bosh.

Honestly, give Andrea a try, he's not that bad. At 7'0" he makes for an interesting option at SF. He's kind of soft on D but he can be magic on offense. I thought the same thing you did, but he's basically Bosh-lite

I just went for Larry Johnson because it was cheaper than dealing with multiple ruby buys. That and my current raptors collection still needed like 10 cards.

I already had the original raptors set and I packed Stoudamire so it made it easy to go for Bosh... I am a big Raps fan but I would prefer Larry. Bosh is better than I thought he'd be but I wish he was better on D....

I was lucky to find a stoudamire for 66k instead of 80+, but honestly it wasn't really worth it. that larry johnson is way better than bosh - he is also a good shooter and comes with insane dunking animations, postgame and explosiveness. if you don't wanna go for collector rewards I'd go for the hornets collection - which at the same time is cheaper than raptors.

Went with Bosh as well, as I pulled Stoudamire, T-mac & Lowry in a single box and had more Raptors cards. He'll do just fine as a stretch 4 for now.
