There’s be no incentive to pick anything else.

Real life is balanced by the fact that only so many of these legendary players are available. In the game, there is no scarcity of superstar players. Every team wants a KD but there’s only one, and the warriors have him. If every team could create a Jordan to put on the roster, they would. In the game, we can do just that.

The archetypes aren’t balanced right now but letting us mimic real life players doesn’t fix balance. It probably makes it worse.
I agree 100%. The community will find the best META and run with it.
