I know he may not be that interesting of a card, but would anyone like a review later today on him?
0
What? No he isn’t in the game til tomorrow

My bad, I didn't realize that on the day it was released on the website. I will try to get my hands on him when he comes out.

It’s all good that came out a bit ruder than expected, he had a career high 62 on Jan 20th he’ll most likely be out tomorrow
1
No you're fine lmao. I was just saying it's my fault for not realizing that he was a locker code in the first place.

I mean technically he is on the all time Lakers, there are ways to test out the card before it releases

Really good card, but that lateral quickness is gonna hurt. I probably won't get him anyway.
0
I like how on unlimited if you check the players age during the game, it’ll say they are 7 or something and that they have been playing for like 14 years

How do you get him?
0
I guess with a code. I hope it will be easy. Just sold McHale for 1500 as a duplicate smh. This Mikan is amazing
0
Mikan is fine on the offensive end. He has a godly release and great stats. But he seems to never grab rebounds for me or be able to guard larger centers. It's the most frustrating thing, especially since he has a good speed but horrible acceleration so he never gets to his man on time.

This card about as old as Jesus christ

And also about 1.9k years younger

We are at 2019 A.D.. He likely didn't live past 20. You'd be closer if you said 2k years. and it would've been a pun...

Is it worth it getting his locker code?

pretty good free PD center if you get it but not gamebreaking. undersized for a 5 but perfect as a 4 with a great release and good enough three. not really need if you got Hakeem, Kareem. I roll with PD Kareem and backup Sampson with PD AD with backup Blake for the PFs. so for me I don't need him but still pretty nice to get him

Players should not have 3pt rating if they played prior to the 3pter being introduced to the NBA.

Show 1 reply...yea just DM me
same with sam jones played before 3 point line but has a 99 open shot 3 with dynamic duo
Mikan was the commissioner of the ABA who first instituted the 3 point shot in professional ball back in 1967. He said the 3 point line "would give the smaller player a chance to score and open up the defense to make the game more enjoyable for the fans."
It's more of him being a godfather to the 3 point shot than anything.
he should have 99 outside scoring if he invented the 3 pointer
Pistol Pete didn't have the three-point line but he was still hitting 30+ ft shots. Thats why 2k gives these old players good three-point ratings.
You took my point, lol.

Show 1 reply...Sorry.
Imagine he has base 11 lmao
Dont jinx it lmao
To be fair blocks didnt exist for Russell and Wilt yet they get 99 block and HOF badges every year
lmao blocks did exist then but were not counted as a stat
- Reply
Show 1 reply...That's what I mean.
People that watched Wilt have said that he would get tons of blocks
by your logic every player who played before the three point line has a 25 three rating in 2k
Yep. Or somewhere around that
- Reply
Show 1 reply...So you think that Pistol Pete Maravich, should have 25 3 pointer
if they gave shit 3 point stats to historic players when the 3 point line didnt exist then historic players would be shit. They gave em that good 3 point stat cause if they were to shoot like they did back in the day from the 3 point line nowdays they wouldnt be that bad
I really got the top comment on this card and then pulled him from the locker code lol
