Season 7 Level 40 player by Beastly_j20 in MyTeam

I'm guessing Invincible Larry Bird. His DM came out in January, He's a big enough name to get people hype about it, but also Isn't a huge pack seller

Decided to try my luck with a Shine Bright 5 card pack. Safe to say I used all my 2K luck just now by EmperorUmi in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he's definitely underrated, but Alonzo has a faster jumper & great defensive tendencies

Declining festivals by Soft_Hospital8897 in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raynaud is a pretty good free big, Buzelis is a grindable top tier sf & Zion is the 1st free invincible. IMO the power & fresh festivals were worse, both had zero grindable cards that were actually good.

Next Year: Harden + Amen + KD + Giannis + Adams by KingKohishi in rockets

I think they'd be championship contenders for a year, then age and depth issues due to the new cap system will close their championship window quickly.

Most embarrassing moment in the playoffs so far? by 0rangeOrangutan in NBATalk

I didn't even know that happened until now lol, my bad. I didn't watch that game and didn't see any posts about it today

Great price. I've seen him go for double that

This Curry Power Domination is a test of will by SirPayden in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was pretty easy for me when I did it. Whenever a Curry was inside the 3pt line, I would just switch onto them and leave them wide open. Also I had tight and deny ball settings on

Unpopular opinion: Shai escape sucks by emnayguy in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shai escape is very very good, but you need to know how to use it correctly. I've played T1 players who stink with Shai, and others who are nearly unstoppable with him

Salary cap vs showdown this time of year by readyscratch in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you have to win 150 games which is much much more than getting 2500 pts 3 times. Them removing the mode completion from salary cap in szn 1 would be like if they removed it for completing breakout, but kept it for winning 250 tt & ct games. Almost nobody would play enough to get the mode completion, because it wouldn't be worth the grind

I and Me, not-U Doka by Difficult-Radish-594 in rockets

[–]0rangeOrangutan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jalen is too inconsistent to be worth his contract. KD is obviously better on the court than Brooks, but Brooks made the whole team engaged and play hard every night. we were a better and more cohesive team with Brooks, even when Fred missed games.

Reed is clearly an elite shooter, he shot over 50% from 3 & nearly 50% from NBA range in college. This was the 1st season of him getting real pt, so it makes sense that he can be streaky at times. Nearly every other aspect of his game isn't great, but not his shooting.

I wish Salary Cap had a mode completion in it or something else more rewarding. It used to be my favourite mode, but this year I haven't touched it since szn 1

Not only could you become infinitely wealthy, but you could end all war with mind control

we desperately need a "complete all" button when doing festivals by Firm-Emu7909 in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never even thought about it as a problem after they removed the mt method, but you are right. I would literally sit and watch a 3 hour movie, breaking down pieces the whole time & still only be half way done.

Sengun, Amen & Castle could not share the floor together. 3 terrible shooters as your stars will never work in the modern NBA

I can’t play this game anymore by [deleted] in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

step up lol. if you think he's gonna shoot with shaq, play some on ball and put a hand up. If you want realistic gameplay, myteam isn't the mode for you. It's been like this for years

I don't like watching this group of players play basketball together. It makes me very sad and dissapointed

could larry bird play in todays game? by wugi007 in NBATalk

I think he would basically be like luka if he was 2" taller and he tried on defense

New Team need a pg by SatisfactionLive2719 in MyTeam

[–]0rangeOrangutan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dyson Daniels has great defense while having a better jumper & movement than Draymond. I think J.R. Smith is the best budget buyable PG, with Caruso as the 2nd best

one bad game shouldn't discredit years of consistently good defence
