    Eh, the Eaton and Deron Williams are solid players. I'll take Dantley over Iggy any day of the week, you do what you feel is best though.

    Like I said, I like playing with players I like, never been a huge Iggy fan.

      Not trying to convince you other wise. Just pointing out reasons why most ppl aren't hight on that card. Ppl aren't sleeping on it, all things considered that card isn't that awesome.

        I've just tried him shortly in freestyle and I also wouldn't say he is "the" card to get - but nevertheless he plays and feels really solid. He is that explosive kind of a player that's what I like about him. Don't worry about the midrange coldzones though, got the same issues with Kiki but with 90+ ratings these just go in without a problem. I also think that Mark Eaton is a massive monster and worth getting... so yeah you have some good people on the collections if you decide to lock. Deron Williams looks superb aswell. Collectors will go for it anyways, others might argue. Can understand if someone is holding on the MT for something better[emoji111]๐Ÿผ๏ธ

          I wanted Dantley but I only packed the crappy warriors ruby so I decided to ditch that idea and go after the High Flyers Collection, I packed another Kobe and hit the 40k reward so I'm only Blake Griffin and J.R. Smith away I still have the Kobe. Can't believe how much that J.R. Goes for, people really do love their 3's!

            That's how I feel about ruby Crawford, I want him to make him my back up PG but 60k for him is way too much.

              J.R. is basically just a worse version of J-Rich... I really don't get it, I like all the sapphires in the set better than J.R.

              On a side note I really need to find a clean Iverson to pair with Iggy, I saw one on the AH today for 80k with Pick and Popper... I pity whoever buys that one

                Lol the way some people ruin a player with badges that don't make no sense is the worst, the other day I saw a curry with bruiser and chase down blocks on gold..... like why lol, I swear people who do that be trolling.

                      Sure, i saw that too. But his 3 point rating is a 25. So not sure how successful or beneficial that badge will be in game.

                        Anyone picking up Eaton? He looks like he could be good for myteam online games, since it seems like everyone now just spams the paint and tries to lead pass or PnR every play. Only thing turning me off is his quickness and speed, but I know he'll have a giant player model ingame for blocks, steals, and boards.

                          I'm holding back on the theme packs though...I think their prices are not justified. I might do one box in the future if their are better cards out.
                          Odds are fairly bad i my opinion for themed packs, and the new TBT packs are not worth the money. 350k worth of VC later I am the proud owner of LBJ, and High Flier Shawn Marion, that's roughly $150. My only TBT pull was Dunleavy

                            I have Wallace so no need for him for me. I had him in 2k15 and he sucked. Too slow and was meh. There are better centers out there and for much cheaper. Emerald Bogut, Gobert, etc

                              To Currently Tbt packs are the only way to get diamond players. Apparently you need to get all kind of scrub players in order to get a diamond ( a last year amethyst)

                              Paying like 30 k for a useless mugsy bogus or 50 for a barnagni is really difficult. I also don't see how these prices are going to drop throughout the game, plus the fact that the awards are unsaleble makes it very concerning investment. What if you can't use this player? What if by the time moment cards arrive prices will crash?

                              Given previous year history of releases I ain't going for no player that goes for 100k + and is unsaleble. I will patiently wait for moments cards or theme cards which might have some opportunities and accept the losses that go with it ( currently stack between diamond and pink diamond league)

                              Eventually for example a Dray Green moment card with 3 pt could be comparable to Larry Johnson for a portion of the price

                                I opened one 20+1 box and pulled both Richmond and D Will. My pack luck this year has been insane. I sold the D will for 92.5k and put Richmond into my starting 2 spot. Richmond's 3 isn't so high, only 81, but he is very solid. I have been running offball screens into mid range jumpers for him and he is super effective.

                                So far I packed Josh Smith + Kevin Willis from the Hawks/Heat TBT, I got Iverson from the Handles packs, Iggy from High Flyers, and now both Richmond and D Will from Jazz/Warriors. Also Tmac from Raptors/Hornets, who isn't expensive but I wanted him so it was a win.

                                I have never had this kind of luck on 2k before.
