I would actually play Jeff Green's bronze with this card just because of the stat boost
Nate the Great is tremendous, for a Gold Center. As a traditional rim-protecting rebounder. Particularly with the Jeff Green duo.
He is a force on the boards and, with the duo, a real force on D in the paint. Compared to other Gold Centers who are not as defensively high-rated, he seems to grab the boards away from other guys, and affect shots at a higher level.
He's not great on O, but he still gets points because of his offensive rebounding and because one can sometimes get him ideal positioning. When he pulls his standing dunk, it's a definitive, vicious animation that makes you think he might pull the rim down.
With the duo, he's more like a good Emerald Center. I feel like he's as effective as the Emerald Tyson Chandler I'm running now too. And Jeff Green goes from Bronze to being a solid Gold-level SF/Stretch 4.
I got him for under 4K on PS4, which is expensive for a Gold, but was worth it, in my mind.
So lucky to snipe this card for 750 MT. Didn't see buyout less than 25k. He is 100% worth it. Must have for #29 and #30 Shedule Challenges. With Jeff Green (Bronze) he becomes 83 Emerald, Jeff --- 75 Silver with 80 3pt shot! He get 85 Block Tendency + 90 Block shot with Jeff. All dunks +10 too. Beast card.
1. They lost in the first round.
2. He was 11th in scoring on the team and 3rd in rebounds on the team.
3. He had Campy Russell, Bingo Smith and Austin Carr on his team.
He definitely "led" the Cavs.
He was the LeBron of this Cavs team
It basically is a ruby because of 30 intangibles which means he's either a ruby or 90 overall amethyst
i hate dbg
lol
just kidding man. I love your vids. I was just saying that because your the intangibles man and its super annoying when people talk about intangibles. like watching your gameplays and stuff but I don't like "hidden (insert gem level here)" videos. Its okay though and I still respect you. sorry for this confusion.
definition of buttkiss right here folks
5 and 7 isn't a ruby
