I opened 10 MVP packs today and i got the current Russell Westbrook, current Carmelo Anthony, and MVP Willis Reed so they seem pretty good.

My goodness 2K update the picture. Forget the fact he's 30+ in the pick when only 24 during this season but the man doesn't even have the right jersey on. Weird part is, in quickplay mode you can see they already have a 70s drj pic in the game. Why they didn't use it idk but I'm annoyed
10
Why is his rebounding so low? He averaged 3.1 ORB, 7.6 DRB, and 10.7 TRB this year
3
2k doesn't go by stats anymore. The go by in game play. So if they watched and studied a game where he any grabbed like 2 rebounds it's most likely gonna be low on the card.
5
that sounds like an idiotic idea
Show 1 reply...1
that's cause it is an idiotic idea. and 2k are a bunch of idiots who grew lazy this year

and the steal and block should be higher. he averaged 2.3 spg and 2.4 bpg this year

This card is gonna be unfair, he's got everything you would want in a beast.

This card can shoot too? It's over ladies and gentleman.... but I have no MT and will never get him in packs.... RIP

Best SF in the game? Maybe...

I hate that picture tho

Idk i think i might pick Lebron over him
2
Lebron doesn't have that midrange though :/ If he was a good shooter, it might be the best card of ANY position.
3
Lebron has better passing and rebounding, and some post up.
DR J HAS A J(umpshot) and a non brick free throw rating. He's also much more athletic and on par with D.
Dr J all day

I wish they would change the picture on this card. No afro and he is wearing a Phily Jersey

This better be a card that isn't updated...

Also, I think this picture is wrong since in '74 Dr. J had a big afro and a goatee. Also that picture looks suspiciously high quality for a random non-photo shoot 70's picture.

Nah man, Vince easily best dunker of all-time

I agree with yo if you're looking at the Dunk Contest. But in game, no one was better than Doc.

Vince has a case, he's an underated in game dunker. His list is extraordinary.

I would like you to ask Michael Cooper what he thinks of Doc's dunking. (Victim of Doc's iconic Rock-A-Baby dunk when Doc was 32)

Oh yeah I know, this card looks fucking insane

The only thing Lebron has on him is playmaking, and this card's playmaking is ok at worst. But scoring wise this is hands down the best card i reckon. The speed is insane and the dunking and shooting, man...

Yeah, on offense he's gonna be unstoppable, defense he will be a beast. He's got everything you want.

Great card, he even has the highest contact dunk of anybody who isn't a PF-C.

Just saw that, will probably be the best pure scorer in the game, might be better to play at SG though because of height.

There is no MVP card I would want more than this guy, he will probably be the best scorer in this game.

Him and Jordan are the two cards I want the most in this collection and maybe the entire game. Great stats and a huge afro.

Doc couldn't shoot, but he's still the best dunker of all time. I know there's gonna be somebody who says "Look at VC's 2000 Dunk Contest," and that's a valid point, but if DOc were playing in 2000, he'd be doing that and more. He was a great scorer and rebounder (if you don't believe me look up the stats) and I think his stats should look more like this:
82 ST3PT
78 MV3PT
94 SPD
99 VERT
99 DRDNK
96 STDNK
74 CNTDNK
78 ORB
88 DRB
86 BXT

I think he deserves about an 85 3pt, he shot almost 40% that year although he didn't attempt that many. I agree his rebounding and block are very underrated, but also his steal and passing. He averaged 10.7 rebs, 2.3 stls, 2.4 blks, and 5.2 assist that year. I can't complain though, this card is one of the best in the game anyway.

Which mental badges he has got? Does he have a wildcard badge?

that wildcard badge dosent really mean anything, i have '11 derrick rose as my starting PG and i always at least get a double double with at least 20 pts with that card

I've had diamond lillard and it is unusable because of the wildcard badge. Consistency wins games
Show 2 replies...0
ive never had a problem with 2011 d-rose and his wildcard. he always, always, always, goes on the fastbreak and he and t-mac are always neck and neck for an assisted highlight dunk. ill admit, he is really inconsistent with his jump shot but he wrecks inside the paint so its really nbd.

Can you please give suggestions for my lineup, I don't usually ask but I am stumped on who to pick up. I am contemplating on picking a couple of these players but not sure which: Oscar Robertson, Julius Erving, Tracy Mcgrady, J.R. Smith, Jamal Crawford, Kawhi Leonard, all diamond cards. I need a shooting guard and small forward more than a point guard but heard Oscar is very good and worth his price. I currently have 330,000 mt but should get up to 400,000 sometime soon. I also have the mt gauntlet boards and some challenges left so could make it to 550,000 mt. Thanks

no way this card is as good as Sapphire or Onyx Dr. J 2k15

it has better shooting stats soo

post was before the MVP ratings were released....
nonetheless, Sapphire Dr. J was an absolute animal and had an argument for best card in 2k15. I think there are more comparable top tier cards this year than last.

88 three ball? LOL... 86 moving shot three...better than Kobe okay... god why does everyone overrate Dr J so much... He's not even a top 10 player of all time. Only some weird ass fanboys go "he made the dunk popular" man shut the hell up, Dr J couldnt shoot to save his life. This is some major BS 2k
3
You cant just assume he is a bad shooter just because of his other cards. he was actually a really good shooter in his ABA days.
0
-3
Im not assuming it based on cards, unlike you apparently, I actually watch all these players...and Dr J cant shoot an 88 3 ball mate. Nor can he shoot moving threes.
Show 6 replies...3
I think 86/88 is a little high for his 3-point rating. However, 1974 was probably his best year shooting wise, making almost 40% from 3.
-2
I agree but he shot very few...This is like Lebron...he shot nearly 40% in 12-13....but he shot very few...now look at him shootin 20 somethin percent...absolutely atrocious...also moving shot 3...Dr J didnt fuckin shoot moving three pointers...and IMO you cant just give him the same for moving 3 and make it better than Kobe's...Kobe is the OG guarded/moving/tough shot 3pt taker...Cant have the doctor rated above this...Honestly I understand the doctor is a fan fav...but he doesnt deserve more total attributes than all other 97 rated players (which happen to include Kobe, Shaq, Wilt etc)
0
Plus you can't really complain about the MVP cards anyway, cuz they are basically pink diamonds and the goal was to make them as juiced as possible
0
It doesn't matter how many he shot, if he made them. If he made like 4 then it would be different, but he shot threes and was good at them so don't complain
-1
Im alright with the standing 3 ball...but the moving 3 is a joke. Dr J didnt take difficult 3 pointers. If you deny that then please watch some games. Apart from that I understand where youre coming from. Most of the other MVP cards are juiced as well and have unrealistic stats to say the least so I think ill agree with you. I just dont like seeing players juiced so much that its unrealistic...like the new Diamond Anthony Davis having more total attributes than Diamond Kobe. I know Kobe has the craziest animations and will undoubtedly be better in game...but its about the idea that random players get similar overalls and/or even higher total attributes. Id have liked to see a slimmer rating system. Now theres more and more 97-98 players being released and that just sucks. Should only be about 10 diamond players total.

Again, they juice out the MVP cards. They aren't going to give an MVP a completely different moving 3, just cuz that's how it is. I agree with u fam believe me
His Sapphire last year was also an ABA card
It was his onyx but I get the point. I`m just surprised they released it straight away as an MVP card, while ignoring other ABA MVP`s

Show 3 replies...artis was an ABA MVP on his card
His shot-blocking and rebounding should be much higher. He actually made a few All-Defensive First Teams in the ABA and even shot the three ball more according to Basketball Reference.
he aint in his jersey or have his fro
Would like to see more of those, some guys had good years in the aba
Yeah like Gilmore and Counts. How ether they`d probably only use players that were successful in the NBA too.

Oops my bad. I thought it was a different year.
Bro Artis does have an aba mvp card
That's fair, I mean there's no reason why not use them, it's fun (at least for me) to use and learn about old school layers, and especially fun to use them to beat other people's current players. (see my Connie Hawkins comment) :)
Same here @lovroi, most of those old school players ARE REALLY underrated, and when u play with them and study about their careers, you just recognize more and more WHAT they did
And Klayyyyy, I agree with you that Wilt is the true G.O.A.T
