I do think 98 is high for Bob Pettit like some are saying, but the game is about having fun. Anyway Bob Pettit is considered one of the best power forwards of all time and helped shape what the league is today back when he played in the 50's and 60's.
I've been saying this. I'm glad someone feels the same way. It wouldn't be as fun if there were only realistic cards
Bob Petit was the first true power foward
Show 2 replies...ya but if they give petit a 98 they better give dirk a 98 to
Show 32 replies...But Pettit is better than Dirk
What are you talking about. Dirk is better than Pettit by a mile. Pettit's numbers are so inflated because of the time he played in.
kys
bud calm down
kys kid
You're an idiot. I don't know who told u it's funny to say shit like that, well it's not. U want humor, take an IQ test and read the results...otherwise stfu.
lol you are the idiot i know him in real life its a joke so why don't you shut your emotional ass up and keep it to yourself
i disagree i reckon pettit played in a time when there was a lot less competition, dirk has played against a lot tougher and better talented opponents then pettit ever did, and dirk played in the nba when more skill was required in order to be successful. Dirk > Pettit every day of the week
That's actually a formula that I use to compare some decades to others. If I use the 1950s formula then Pettit Career Averages are 20.4 Points, 11.6 Rebounds, and 2 Assist and Dirk's Averages are 22 Points, 7.9 Rebounds, 2.5 Assist. So Dirk is more of a scorer but all around Pettit is better overall
The formula doesn't account for quality of competition and Pettit's rebounding numbers are inflated so high due to the overall lower FG% of that era. Dirk is infinitely better than Pettit I don't even understand how this has so many likes.
That's not true we never know. Back then there may not have been as much competition but they were a lot more physical. They didn't shoot back then like players can now. You gotta give respect to the pioneers of the game we play today, even if today they wouldn't be as good. Back then they didn't have the kind of technology that we do today.
I agree. Abilities/stats are relative to the point in time, i.e. Granted they had lower fg%s but they also had less athletic ability, virtually no 7'0+ stretch 4s/5s to compete with, etc. the game was completely different then but there are plenty of records from ages ago that have stood the test of time and remain standing still, however there are many which are broken after a long time also. It can go either way IMO.
Yeah and also because put those guys with the natural skill and give them the workout technology and stuff we have today they will excel. They are in the HoF for a reason.
That's what the formula is for, quality of competition and possesions per game
How does a formula account for quality of competition? There are so many variables that make the 50s and 60s such an inferior era as compared to others. Rebounds are so severely inflated due to overall lower FG% due to overall worse talent and competition. Dirk is twice the player Pettit was and it's not even remotely close. The eye test alone should say enough.
But Dirk's stats adjusted to 50s pace is 32 and 12 so your argument is invalid
Are you ok? That means when you adjust Dirk to 50s stats then Pettit averages 32 and 19, and Dirk only 32 and 12. Your counterargument is invalid.
Well Dirk's is career stats. If you're going off best season Dirk averages 38 and 14 with better FG% and PER
Every person that grows up wanting to be in the nab look at the people before him to learn the right ways to play and as time goes on people will keep getting better because they learn from other people mistakes when they had to learn from their own. Yes, Dirk is the better player but he had to learn it from the greats before him so comparing eras are not really easy.
Gets a 94 3pt rating when the 3pt line wasn't even in the league when he was playing lmaoo

Does anyone know how to get him
yeah....bob pettit is one of the greatest forwards ever, but 98 is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to high for him
Not a fan of this years 2K ratings. How come every legend player is rated 5-9 ovr ratings higher than they should...
Pettit is one of the best power forwards ever. Only issue I have with the card is the inflated three point rating, but he was a damn good mid-range shooter, and had the 3PT line been around back then, I'm sure he would've been serviceable.
Not like we're going to run into a ton of people with this card anyways.
how do you get this bob pettit
Where is the pink diamond KG or pink diamond Dirk? Like this is legitimately the least deserving of one out of the top 5 power forwards. This guy honestly might not even be a top 5 power forward.
That's because they're all active players. When Dirk gonna score 35 points this season, they'll give him an upgrade. And when KG gonna get 10 points 10 rebounds (probably won't happen lol) they'll give him an upgrade
Show 2 replies...So much for that KG 10 points/boards game lol
you can use him as a SF: good shooter, defender, decent speed
Im confused. Not a single one of his Outside scoring, Inside scoring, Playmaking, etc... is over 97, but his OVR is 98?
My guess is that this is the card reward you get for the weekly challenges after you get Willis Reed.
Fucking HOT ZONES WTF
They fixed it, they are all hot now except one corner
Show 1 reply...why is he 83 years old
I know ratings are way higher this year but it makes it more fun! Does anyone know how to get these pink diamond rewards?
I think the players with the old pictures (from last year) is pretty lame, why can't they just find another one and photoshop it? How hard is it.
There aren't many photos of Bob Pettit that are high enough quality to put on these cards, so that's why.
Show 1 reply...
<Has 95 Open mid
<Had 93 Contested mid
<Has cold spots on basically every spot in the mid range area besides one spot
This guy should deserve a deep range deadeye, corner specialist, and limitless range, because he's really good at shooting threes. But, back in the 60s, there was no behind the arc back then, but still he deserves it.
To get this card, I believe you have to beat My Team Online twice. That probably includes going undefeated in the pink diamond tier.
no ive seen ple on twitter that have sweep through pd league and have pd duncan. when u get back to pd league second time u get the diamond board from historic dom
hes not a blacktop or myteam online reward. im thinking hes challenge reward im commented about it on the George mcginis card
how do you get barkley
get all the dream team members. only ewing has been released so far, and you can get him by completing the big men collection
I had to play with him on blacktop and he is so deadly, but I don't know how to get this card ...
so idk who actually kept up with doing all of these but, i made a new account and only got robert pack.. so i literally missed 15+ weeks.. is it gonna be possible to get this card if you missed this many weeks?
Prob not im thinking you gotta do all of them with missing none. Ive done all of them so far so hopefully he is a challenge reward along with elgin baylor
This guy is the beast... His stats, his badges look amazing, hope his shot won't be as inconsistent as Kevin Love's. The only weekly challenges I have missed is the one were I needed 5 raptors players and Danny Green... I didn't have enough MT back then to buy these players... Now I have to hope that they re-release some challenges.
I only got the game in December, and didn't start playing until the beginning of March. Not sure if getting this card is possible for me now.
I'm One Fucking token off ...
I slept one Thursday night thinking "oh I'll do them in the morning since challenges usually reset at 12pm " but nah fucken 2k took away that weeks challenges at 8 fucken am . Fuck 2k bruh , ONE fucking token off from getting him CAUSE OF 2ks Fault
LMAO I love how the challenges were up for a week and it's 2ks fault you didnt do them... calm your tits you can still get him next week
http://2kmtcentral.com/17/lineups/950930/6717
this is my current squad but I've been having some troubles in online play. Any suggestions?
he should not deserve this card and george mikan should not deserve his diamond card because they played in a time where there was really no skill at all and they were just big for their time period. If they played in today's game they wouldn't average more than 10 points a game. have i made a point?
what are you talking about, anyone in todays game can average 10 ppg. not to mention that he was still great player
I didn't know Bob Pettit is a better 3PT shooter than Michael Jordan. Oh yeah, that is because he played when 3 pointers didn't exist and he only shot 76.1% from the free throw line giving me doubts about his outside shooting. Oh well, I guess it is fine 2K is giving him 94 open three and 92 contested three.
That is basically saying his open three pointer is as good as Larry Bird's open three
Show 1 reply...he shot far away from the basket consistently like what they did with jerry lucas
98 ? Almost up there with The GOAT. Fuck 2k myteam this year bruh
94 open shot 3 and 92 contested shot 3 for a player who never played with a 3 point line. I know they try to estimate how good he would've been from 3 point range, but thats a little much.
It a reward card, it's not SUPPOSED to be accurate. Regardless, Pettit was known, among many other things especially offensive rebounding, for his range.
Show 1 reply...It should at least be a little accurate. Those two stats I mentioned are identical to Larry Bird. He may have been a good shooter, but not as good as Bird. Mid to high 80's would be good for Pettit in my opinion, even if it is a rewards card. Also, I don't see many other rewards cards with stats boosted as much as this
[Deleted]
NOBODY that played in the 60's should be higher then a 70 overall
Bob deserves 88 max and thats facts
So you're telling me that Pettit, a top 5 PF of all time deserves the same rating as Kevin Willis?
Show 5 replies...Yeh he is no where near as good as anthony david and he is 82
The NBAs first ever MVP...
I'm behind but I should get him by June
- Reply
Show 13 replies...On 22nd April they will release all or most of the weekly challenges in one go. Which means you can even get him by the end of April if you play that much
Not doubting you man but how do you know? Just interested as i heard about that before i just didn't know the date

And the first comment is from a guy who has direct communication with 2K
Thanks dude
lol turns out they aren't fuck me
YES!!!
And more than anything, it is a shit ton of content which gives a shit ton of MT
And 2 Pink Diamonds
and 2 diamonds. It's a great move by 2K
It also fucks up the people who thought they'd have an advantage by grinding
Weekly challenges aren't a loyalty program and they re-released some last year too
They released them by week and kept them there for the KAJ

Show 4 replies...admins and mods can sticky anything
and lock threads also, *cough cough* @ianstp lmao
huh
What?
this card is actually worse than elgin baylor which elgin is the "worse" reward which makes no sense
- Reply
Show 7 replies...This card seems much better than Baylor to me!
well opinions are opinions but overall attributes elgin baylor has more
I don't think worse is the right word for all time greats... And there is a lot more to the game than "overall attributes" buddy.
well if we are being honest i dont have these cards so i cant judge i dont really know which card is better in what areas specifically
I have both. I wouldn't judge any player by the attributes.
which one is better then in your opinion?
Why
