So I played my first Sapphire Supermax game today. I thought I had a pretty good team:

Gold George hill
Gold Avery Bradly
Emerald Artest
Emerald Draymond Green
Ruby Shaq

Bench
Saph Irving
Silver Wes Mathews
Gold Crowder
Gold Ibaka
Gold Howard

Total cap 1450.

First guy I played:

Saph Irving
Ruby Hawkins
Ruby somebody can't remember
Ruby Raheem
Ruby Shaq

(btw, all the Rubys were fully gold badged with the key badges like deep range deadeye, corner specialist, catch and shoot, etc)

Bench
Emerald Bibby
Bunch of silvers, most importantly 7'3" Boban Marjonovic

Two observations:
1) The cap means nothing. If you can field a roster of 4 rubys and a sapphire this early wtf will it mean later?
2) Height is still grossly broken in NBA 2k, especially in MyTeam where you need to get budget players to fill our your bench. Boban is a 73 overall, and he went 10 for 10 with 2 blocks. Over Shaq and Howard. Nothing I did mattered, he just shot over everyone.

He beat me, with Raheem and Marjonovic scoring over half his points. I only stayed close via very good 3 point shooting.

If this is indicative of what the new SuperMax gameplay is going to be like, I might just stick with offline...
