I believe... they will continue to release the playoff series that you have to win, where you must face every championship playoff road.
For example, you will face everyone the Warriors faced last year in the playoffs, and the final reward is the MPV Iggy card.
Eventually you'll get the MVP for each of those classic teams (which will take MONTHS after MONTHS waiting for them to release new series) and once you collect all you will be rewarded the Kareem.
I believe many people will have him, but... it will be a grind. I recommend getting each series out of the way each week, that way you don't have to play catch up in a few months.

I'm talking about the weekly challenges if you didn't understand that
Show 9 replies...2
Getting this card will be so painful
3
haha... I think if you try and do each weekly challenge as they come out, it won't be so bad. 8 games a week (so far at least) if you don't lose. Will be worth it in the end.

The Grind is unreal... I'm still finishing historic domination...

I think that he will be worth the grind, because you also get a 90 overall D Wade from the challenges as well, along with a lot of other players, such as Isiah Thomas, Tony Parker, Pau Gasol, etc.

This card is gonna be so amazing. Hopefully 2k doesn't find some way to fuck this up causing him not to come out tomorrow
1
Yea Ik. Where there's a way, there's a will says 2k. Whenever 2k finds a way to fuck something up, they do it. I hope this card is upgraded too bc it had a better season than the '71 Kareem and it has the same stats. They better not skip a week. I've played/grinded so hard for this card.

I think that this Kareem card will get an attribute boost before the last challenge comes buy likely not a huge one. We saw reward Jordan for 2700 cards - a huge collecting grind get a stat boost even though he is so good already. Similarly, getting Kareem requires over a hundred games to be played and is a grind to play through all of them. Each games takes atleast 30 minutes too. That's why, I think 2k will give him a boost to reward people for playing all of it. It doesn't make sense that his historic card has the exact same stats - and as they already made '96 reward Jordan better then '96 historic jordan so I can see the same thing happening here. I think we'll see a slight boost in multiple areas like mid range shooting which may go up to around 94, passing and maybe defense and strength.
1
AGREED
1
The numbers certainly back it up too. '72 was probably his prime (If you look at his stats). That was the season where he had career highs in points per game (Which would likely boost his scoring.)This is his season where he had the second most rebounds per game (.3 from the best of his career, also better than '71). He also averaged more assists per game than in '71 (Around 5 this year) all while maintaining almost equal efficiency to the 1971 season which is undertandable seeing how he had the ball and was shooting more. Also, for the seasons where blocks were counted while he was with Bucks, he averaged 3.4 blocks per game, so it would make sense to see his block rating go into the 90's. All around, he played better in 1972 (This cards year) than 1971 so am sure he will get better at scoring, passing, rebounding and even athleticism and defense as a bonus. This card may become 98 overall.
0
I need to start this grind lol... i only completed the lakers rttf
0
Yeah now you have to catch up. I'm glad I did them each week as they released
0
I was too occupied with domination and gauntlet
1
Yeah I know I did it too its very time consuming. To make the games less boring I used all the players I have fun using, usually great dunkers or great shooters and try to do things like score 50 with a player and that made it more fun for me. I actually like them because they are easy and aren't tense like rttp and don't have requirements like domination. You can just relax and play which is nice.
1
0
That's my advice for the challenges by the way. How far are you in domination?
0
Finished domination a couple months ago... I have 221 wins in gauntlet so once i get cousy NO MORE GAUNTLET EVER... LIKE EVER
0
I got Cousy at around 305 wins. I still play abit, not nearly as much though because I'm doing the MT boards. So far I've finished the 10k board 6 times so 60k right there it's pretty nice.
0
By the way, it's actually good if you take longer to get Cousy. Cousy board is hands down the best board ever. Instead of getting 200 MT cards you regularly get 1000 MT cards. Also, you pull gold players (I got Westbrook, Butler, Cousins,etc.) a few times and they come pretty often too kind of like silver players in the other boards. And you still get contracts, and other cards too like every other board.
0
Im just bored with MyTeam tbh
0
I feel like that too sometimes. They aren't doing enough. They should do at least one more weekly challenge other than the Kareem challenges so we get new types of games - at this point what was there since day one is there and nothing new. Gameplay is good, but content is behind. Sometimes, now that I did the offline stuff - I have nothing to play new other than rttp.
0
I sometimes go back to MyPark, or mycareer ive been getting into myleague and its not half bad if u like rebuilding teams
0
I used to play a lot of MyCareer but I prefer MyTeam so I don't play MyCareer as much. Both need playing time to get better it's hard to play them both and get as good. MyGM/League is fun I agree I played it last year around May when MyTeam was basically dead.
0
Same
0
I hope it doesn't die so soon this year. Late June and after until 2k16 - 2k15 was absolutely dead. Not a single new thing.
0
I know i was dead with 2k but now i have so many other games i can play so when im bored with 2k i have other things to do
0
Yeah that's good.
0
How many wins did u get cousy at im at 235 as of today
0
I got him at 300. Remeber, like I said, Cousy board is the goat board and it's better in that sense if it takes a little long. 1000 MT cards, gold players, etc.
0
When the bored resets should i pick the same ones it filled back up?
0
I don't think the same board resets - the cards are shuffled and won't necessarily be in the same spot again There's no point in trying to keep track
0
Ok someone told both so i was just gonna make sure... You have been alot of help btw
0
Thanks I'm glad to help.
0
I guess you could try to see but based off other boards and my own/others experiences the boards change and you will probably find Cousy in a different place from where I found him. Keep going and remember, the longer it takes the more MT you make so if it takes 300 like me or more it's fine. And I was wondering how many cards do you have?
0
300... Oh this is gonna take a while... I sold everything and have 50 i ad 700 but i knew i was never gonna get those super great players
0
Yeah same I had around 600 but the closer rewards weren't great and I will never get the diamonds. Are you at 300 in gauntlet right now?
0
243 i believe
0
Oh. Save your best cards for the last few games for more picks. I did atleast 4 wins a day but most days it was all gauntlet to get it done and atleast people quit sometimes so you don't actually play all of them
0
Yeah... I stream if u wanna give me tips when i play... Im really getting annoyed at gauntlet cause i play cheesers and if i try chesing i suck
0
Maybe one day I'll see but you already have 240 so it's not like your struggling. That's just how the mode is teams can be imbalanced and the three pointers are so cheese. People with guards that can shoot usually win because the game style of gauntlet. Just keep going for threes or dunks and if they make a rotation on your way to a layup kick it out and take the three instead helps a lot. If the opponent has a player like Deandre Jordan that can't shoot, cheese and don't guard him on the perimeter and just keep his man in the paint waiting to help. Exploit any matchup you can because gauntlet is pace and cheese heavy. You're at 240 you're good
0
Thanks lol I honestly dont think ill replay it once i get cousy tho and this thing is about to die
1
Yeah I only came back to do MT boards.
0
I still dont think i can lol... I think im only gonna focus on RTTF until im caught back up
0
It's the same game as before it won't be hard just because you get on the Cousy board. You'll get it eventually but the sooner the better because it's a good new card for you. Obviously though, RTTF gets you amethyst Gasol, Parker and Wade when it comes and then you get Kareem so if you had to prioritize I'd go with RTTF too. If you got this far, you might as well finish gauntlet too.

i think there has to be some type of catch because i cant see the cards being very expensive and then everyone would have kareem
0
u gotta play like 200 weekly challenge games with all different players from all different teams or maybe more to get him and then u won't be able to auction him because he's a reward card. The other one from the Bucks franchise can be in the auction block. I'm sure it will be expensive. Right now they r showing the exact same stats, but they r from 2 different years so that may be updated or changed. I'm sure not everyone will have him, but at least they give everyone a chance to get a Kareem with hard work. That's a lot of broing ass challenge games to play though. All the challenges won't be released for a while though so it prob won't be til at least March which sucks.
1
He will not be sellable, he will be better rated then the 71 one because he averaged more in points rebounds, assists and field goal percentage possible 98 overall?
0
I know I was saying the 71 Kareem will be sellable, but prob be hella expensive.. I hope he is a 98 ovr that'd be tight.
0
I think he'll be cheaper them you think because a lot of people will have this version
0
maybe, but u gotta play like 200 games to get him. I'm sure there'll be plenty of people who will do it, but I haven't played any of them yet so I don't know how hard they r. I'm sure he'll still be expensive, but that will definitely bring the value down some.
1
Some of this shit doesn't feel worth it this year though. I've got 1700 cards, but I don't even know if it's worth it to keep going. it's not even fun to me playing online so far, because of the lag. It's way too much lag for me this year... what is the point of building a great team just so I can play games against the cpu in offline games? It is better and more of a challenge this year, but I like facing a real opponent online, and the lag ruins it for me. How can u time a shot or anything when it's lagging?

Blows my mind that anyone is spending money on diamond centers anymore, seeing as how you can get one of the best centers in the game for FREE
0
Though, I just want to say, I got Diamond Bill Russell and I cannot wait to have him paired with this Kareem in the paint. Bill is one of the cheapest Diamonds, so I personally feel that is really good move if you want a super strong post. All the other Diamond centers are just too expensive, so I feel Bill might actually be worth it.

Who is going for him I have beat the warriors playoff run and first of the rockets just want to see what people are up to
2
Honestly it's just time consuming. I finished all of the Warriors, the Lakers and the Rockets challenges. I'm finishing up the Pistons one right now, about to start the Spurs one. I'd say it's worth it though, to have him and say you own a diamond. I use my Pau Gasol from the Lakers Finals Reward all the time and I'll probably use Dwyane Wade frequently was well, so that's how it's going for me.
0
Update ... my current starting lineup is Amethyst Tony Parker, Amethyst Jason Kidd, Amethyst Dwyane Wade, Amesthyst Pau Gasol and Gold DeMarcus Cousins, soon to be Diamond Kareem. I'll put Kidd at the point, Wade at the two and Parker on the bench once I get Clyde from the Gauntlet. He'll be my three.
Show 4 replies...0
the wade reward card is a bit dissapointing for me. his defense is nice, but dude cannot make a 3 and misses open jumpers. Pau gasol is not athletic enough, and without him being able ot make a 3 is useless
0
I find the Wade card to be good on fast break, which is primarily why he's on the bench for me now. I also put Gasol on the bench as well considering he's very slow, but has good post play and a good free throw for a big man. His rebounding is only decent for me. Diamond Crawford and Diamond Millsap are in my starting lineup now

Which teams have you planned to target ?
Pistons starting now, also have Bulls, Lakers, Spurs and Heat.
Do you have any additional one ?
0
Well are u asking me the teams that are required cause, beside the ones that have passed like the Warriors, Rockets. I got my Pistons players, Heat players, Spurs players, Laker players, and Suns players. And if you asked me theres no point not to get the players before hand, the players value will go up when the challenge comes out and you get golds and a amethyst d wade and on top of all that a diamond kareem.

not sure how different this one is going to be from the 71

He should be better after averaging more in everything with a night field goal percentage

To get this card, you have to win 6 different series, which is 116 wins to get him. Thats like doing all of domination twice
0
Considering I don't even use Scottie Pippen and Jason Kidd in my line-up, I think this is a much better deal than domination. And it has to be a lot of wins or else when April came everyone would have him and they can't, or at least shouldn't, just give the same diamond player to everyone in the game. It wouldn't be fun if you played against a diamond Kareem with your diamond Kareem every game.

Do you know absolutely anything about basketball or do you just look at the three point stats and the dunking stats and build your team around that. Well what can I expect from a LeBron fan
Show 2 replies...0
When April comes this guy is going to be unstoppable at PF for me, I don't really understand how there is a 3 rating difference between this and the 82 version though. The only difference is the ratings are this ones a bit more athletic and has better offensive rebounding, I don't think thats 3-rating points though.

Since all the other diamond rewards are getting boosted I wouldn't be surprised if this got an upgrade 98 potentially

This card will most likely get upgraded. From '71 to '72, he nearly got 1500 more points and averaged like 3 more points or something to that extent. I doubt it will have the same stats as the '71 historic card unless 2K are retards who don't give about this game and know nothing about it. I've worked my ass off to get this Kareem (I had to catch up by I got the game late. I already a caught up) and I I don't want to be disappointed. Obviously this card is a god send but it'd be great if it's upgraded. This card is going to help me so much in RTTP...

Just got him and played a few game with him. Amazing player. Only downside is I now get matched up with all diamond teams, which is annoying since I only have 7 amethysts on my team, plus Kareem. Other than that he's great. Absolute monster inside; beat up diamond Wilt pretty thoroughly.

Kareem just added more cheese to my lineup. http://2kmtcentral.com/16/lineups/32081/current

PLEASE HELP
I've suceeded all Challenges but i didn't get the Kareem card.
I think because of the Detroit Challenge, at that time i only got the historic Isiah Thomas, not the Reward One.
Does anybody know how i can solve this problem...?!

I had to contact 2k support. Just tell them what happened. They will probably ask you to restart your ps4 or something. just say you did and it didnt work. You'll have to show them proof of everything so make a video and send it to them. then you should be good :)

Yes it worked, just had a view maila with the support and sent them a Video, they Unlockes Zecke Reward Pack, and then the Kareem Pack.
Great and FAST support from 2K! (less then 24hours to solve the problem), i didn't expected that..
Thanks for your advice!

I got him yesterday.He is the PF in my lineup and he is a dominant player.His shooting release is awesome for pick and fade. I gave him 17 gold badges. I pair him with dpoy hakeem and this duo is unstoppable.

This Kareem is only 75 attributes points better than the Amy Kareem :/
What a scam :(

Not really they just overated the amy one

I know 75 speed for a 39 year old center is pretty stupid. DR Kobe is like a 67 at 36 years.

KAJ as PF with Admiral? I have all Finals. I am waiting of the last 2 of Suns

I'm in same situation with you (two games till Kareem and I get him too.) don't put Kareem at PF. dumb move. He's 7'2 and although he's fast for both PF and C, he will be a monster miss match at C.
Show 2 replies...0
Thanls for your reply.Im gonna to test Robinson on PF. I think he can play at the 4. The reason is, that i wont to pay so much MT for a PF. I m saving for KG tbt. If i can get him my line up is finished with KAJ,KG,Lebron, Gervin, Thomas
My Bench : Admiral,McAddo,Pippen,ROY Jordan, İverson,Wilkins,Wade mybe Majerle as a shooter with less mins

Ok so I've got him but he doesn't seem to be as good as I thought, not grabbing enough rebounds and his shot seems to be a bit off most of the time, anyone else finding this? I haven't played with him for long so might just be me

Show 46 replies...Nah? All time scorer above every position and nah? Of course he's the best center. If you HAVE to choose someone over him, it'd be Wilt IMO
But he isn't the best scorer. PPG is a more accurate measurement of that, and Kareem is 5 PPG behind Jordan and Wilt
What does Jordan have to do with the best C of all time?
lol got'em
Oh wait I forgot that's what this is about. Still 5 PPG behind Wilt though
Wilt played 10 years behind him where there was less competition. Kareem was playing in freakin '89
Less competition? Kareems best years came when half the good centers were in the ABA. So old Wilt was his biggest rival, and old Wilt matched him...

Lmao he ignorance... So in the 60's everyone was 6'0 then once the 70's began everyone magically became taller? The average height of centers in the 60's was 6'9, even today it's only 6'10... Half those guys you named played against Wilt too...
I'm not talking about centers in the 60s you idiot. I'm talking about guards. He could just run past all 5 players is what I'm saying. Averaging 50 points does not look like it was challenging to him.
Well the guards today are 6'0 too "idiot", there are 5'9-11" PG's, some of them (Thomas, Lawson) are defiantly no scrubs, there were no "tiny" PG's in the 60's like that, look at the big O too, he was 6'5 so surely if all the guards were 6'0 he would have been a SF?
why are you talking about 60's point guards though? None of Kareems cards are from the 60's. And as for small guards, Nate Archibald was a straight up beast. 1973 He was the only player to EVER lead the league in both points/assists in the same season. They list him at 6'1, but he definitely wasn't. His card in this game is probably the most underrated and underused card in the game. He's my starting PG, and honestly the only person I would take over him is the 98 overall Big O. Nate can shoot 3's, 99 speed and acceleration, and he can dunk like craaaaaazy!!
But... as for the best center. That goes to my boy Hakeem. He has 2/5 Quadruple Doubles in NBA History!! He was the most complete center. Even MJ said on his all time team he would take Hakeem as his C. Dude could straight up beast on anybody. He handled every elite center in the league with no problem. Like David Robinson in the 95 playoffs. Dominated young Shaq. And, dominated Ewing in the 94 finals. I don't think Wilt or Bill would be able to handle the full bag of tricks Hakeem has. Wilt and Bill relied on their size to score mostly, while Hakeem, has unstoppable finesse.
Nah I'm talking about when Wilt played.
Good to here amethyst Nate is good, the gold one was the first gold I bought and I plan to use him for the rest of 2K, unless the amethyst becomes available to me, he's the first card on my shopping list if I hit the jackpot somehow.
Hakeem only had 1 of 4 quadruples doubles. Wilt has unofficially recorded 10's of quad dubs before blocks were recorded. Wilt would be too strong for Hakeem and had finesse moves that were nearly as good, his mix of length and atletacism would dominate Hakeem on defense too, no 90's centers, no matter how good overall, were not as big or athletic as Wilt.
Yeah Nate is definitely worth a pickup. If you put a 3pt shoe on him.... My god lol.
Where are you getting your stats from? Cuz you're wrong on the quadruple doubles. He should have had a second one. Dumbass statistician didn't he deserved the 10th assist but he should have. Wilt's only an inch taller and twenty pounds heavier... I don't see how he could be more athletic. Have you not watched much of his tape? his rookie season he met the ball at the top of its arc and threw it down... Plus watching Wilt's highlight tape... What finesse are you talking about? He literally just turns and scoops it in because he's bigger than everybody; including Bill. I think that 275 mark is fairly generous too because Wilt does not look that thick. Hakeem had to guard Shaq and David Robinson who were fricking brick shit houses. Muscle men. He held his own. Wilt never had the dream shake or anything like that, and he'd be biting on those fakes hella hard, cuz he's used to blocking everybody, cuz they're smaller and they didn't do moves like that back then! I'm watching "Wilt Chamberlain: The greatest offensive force" on Youtube and literally, the first minute is just him turning around and shooting fadeaways (which all look real ugly), and not one pump fake. Also, the D Bill is playing on him looks soft as hell. Not even bodying him or anything and just letting him turn and fade and he just stood there with his hands up...
Wilt was a national champion in the 400, high jump, broad jump, triple jump, and shot put while he was at Kansas. Safe to say he was a fair bit more athletic than Hakeem. And Wilt didn't look that big because he was so long. Coming into the league he was about 250, but in his prime he played between 290 and 310, and he was still able to block shots at the top of the backboard. Wilt was a finesse player. He could handle the ball, pass, shoot mid range, fadeaways, and his drop step was damn near unstoppable. Also, we only have footage of less than 20% of Wilt's career field goals. Tell me, could Hakeem dislocate Gus Johnson's shoulder by blocking his dunk? Could Hakeem break Red Kerr's toe with a dunk? Watching footage of Wilt he rarely bit on pump fakes, most of the time he kept his arms up and didn't jump. Wilt was far stronger, quicker, and more athletic than Hakeem. He would absolutely bully Hakeem down low and he easily had the length and quickness to stop whatever Hakeem tried on offense
Obviously guards are still that height but through generations, players I have gotten more athletic and better. Wilt was an "advanced" person because of his athletic talent combined with his height. On top of all that, the players sucked at his time. Beside height, all the guards in the 60s are way worse than the guards today. That's not an opinion. It's a fact that the game has evolved along with the players.
It comes down to whether you want to look at the context of a player in his era or compare him to today's players. Unless basketball loses popularity today's players will almost always be better than yesterday's players. It is important to note however that the player in the past would have been better in all likely-hood if he was born in this era because the same advantages that everyone else has now through the evolution of the game that player would have had.
Kareem is the all time leader in points however, if Wilt played as long as Kareem he would beat it by about 7,000 points. MATH TO BACK IT UP:
Kareems points per season 2,020
Wilts points per season 2,416
2,416 x 6 (amount of seasons to match kareems) = 14,501 points
14,501 + 31,419 (Wilts total points)= 45,920 points
Wilt- 45,920 points
Kareem- 38,387 points
That's like saying "If Bo never got hurt he would've been the best running back which MAKES him the best running back." No. Just because YOU think wilt would've done better (you do worse when you get older so idk why you think he would stay averaging the saw points), doesn't mean he is automatically better than Kareem.
That's not true at all. You cannot tell the future bro. Math does not "back you up" because you don't know what wilt would've done. And again, Kareem was 10 years ahead of him where it's harder because it's a different calibre of players. That's not my opinion; that's a fact. People have evolved and after 10 years, there was much more talent around the NBA. As a matter of fact, wilt's last year was around '72 and Kareem's was '89 so about 15 years so even better. And that would've could've shit is retarded.
Ya know what else is retarded you saying "Bro, in the 60s, more than 90% of the players were 6'0 white guys who sucked shit. The only other player was Bill (his only competition) and that's why they always met up in finals. When Kareem played, his competition was Bill Walton, Bob McAdoo, Dave cowens, Willis Reed, Bob Lanier, Wes Unseld, Nate Thurmond, Moses Malone, Robert parish, jack sikma, artis Gilmore, Hakeem and the list goes on..." Than @Klayyyyyy saying "Lmao he ignorance... So in the 60's everyone was 6'0 then once the 70's began everyone magically became taller? The average height of centers in the 60's was 6'9, even today it's only 6'10... Half those guys you named played against Wilt too..." and then you saying that you werent talking about the 60's so ya know, good job...
I love it how you are being so serious. When I said that YOU couldn't predict the future of Wilt's career, you quoted me*laughijg emoji* stay on thatbtopic "bro"(<lol you quoted me on that) Stop giving me more info tho. That's your opinion and this is mine. I'm just saying the Kareem has better stats to back him up as the greatest center of all time. If you don't fucking believe me, YOU respond to me naming the top 10 players in the 60s and I will respond with the top 10 players in the 80s... We will see who wins that
I wasn't being serious when I said 90% of the people who played then were 6'0 white people ypu retarded peice of shit.
You aren't that smart are you?
Actually, you are the retard here. I'm saying why Kareem is better than wilt and you are saying why he's not with no facts to back you up. Kareem played longer cause he had more endurance probably. At 39 Kareem was played better (according to his stats) than wilt at 35. Don't get me wrong, wilt was incredible, so that's why IMO, I rank Kareem at 1 and wilt at 2. You guys gotta become less defensiveness...damn. There's no right or wrong answer. If there HAD to be a right answer, it'd be that Kareem is better cause he's ranked higher than wilt in more than 50% of the top whatever lists (more opinions) and Kareem had better career stats. Idc if wilt didn't play as long seasons as he did. That would've could've shit IS shit
He isn't, he doesnt evn kno how to spel propery. I WANT WILT INSIDE OF ME
Please tell me that was a joke...
old wilt was still good, but not fast or athletic. still had impressive post moves and defense, so he could still compete against kareem
wilt said personally, kareem was hard to guard
Well yeah I didn't say he made Kareem look like a scrub... I'm pretty sure Kareem said he always went full out vs Wilt because otherwise he would be destroyed
I didn't take anything away from wilt. I know my opinion, Kareem is the #1 center ever and wilt is the #2 center ever.
You know nothing, D. Wade
Bro it's an opinion. If you think wilt is better, that's your opinion. I Probably know more about football and basketball than you so it's fine.

You can't look purely at PPG for how good a scorer someone is. You have to look at points per 36 minutes, give it some weight if they had played more minutes in less because that causes fatigue, and then account for efficiency with eFG% and TS%.
You are an idiot. Kareem's consistancy was amazing. He averages 20+ per 36 min almost all his career. Even at 38 years old.
Lol how tf am I the idiot when you don't even have reading comprehension? Tell me any point in my argument where I mentioned Kareem. I was arguing against Klayyyy's using purely PPG for how good of a scorer a player was, no where did I mention any player and how using my method would harm or help their argument as a great scorer.
He wasn't even talking to you... idiot
Curry is what now?
Bill Russell
N/A
11 rings and the top rebounder of all time not enough for you?
bill russell had like 20 HOFers on his team
wilt is the top rebounder
11 team achievements and Wilt being the career leader for rebounds puts Russell down the order.
