Important note: looks like TyDebo did a follow up video after this "2K Actually Did The Right Thing" video doing a deeper dive on the cards and appears to amended his earlier comments and now champions Chauncey Billups. CarlosStory made a mistake in his video and didn't even look at the glaring difference in Chauncey's badges, favoring the quick release on CJ. I'm still picking Chancey. Interested what others think.
Billups stats are crazy, but his low dunk rating and low draw foul concern me as far his finishing around the rim. His shot is also a little on the slower side. He'll lock up defensively, but I don't think he'll provide much more than being a spot up shooter on offense. The Mashburn card is more versatile offensively, since his shot is a little faster and his dunking will be far superior. His defense isn't bad either, although he may not quite be on Chauncey's level. I think who you take depends on what position you need to fill for your team. Definitely think it's between those two though, the remainder of the cards all have glaring weaknesses.
Those are solid points, one thing about my model is that it does take positional flexibility into account so where they are matters to the model a lot, their relation to others at the same position/archetype relative to their skillset. I'm less concerned about his inability to dunk with driving layups (I can attest already) and I run him along Moncrief who dunks and does it all. You definitely zero'd in on the weak areas that could be better, so don't disagree there -- I would love for the draw fouls to be higher.
no lie indint think billups gonna be the pick, he's got the stats n badges yeah but he could be flat out of every1s team in 24 hours we got bronny and there's a lot of cards that can come out n be way better I also think mashburn mid so its not really a “right answer” but I can see Kirk coming out tommrow n bronny being good and boom there goes Chauncey
Haven't seen the stats yet but I have a feeling that the promo pass Bronny is going to be a bad card, but you're right I'm waiting to see what the Season 3 content brings. You're not far off on Mashburn because there is a saturation of combo forwards around his skillset, but still a W for a free card. I really think that one and the Billups cards are the best here.
@ yeah he is prob best pick ngl, but ah there goes bronny n caruso being = or better (bronny is clearly missing badges but they each close enough to billups with a 90 dd caruso just better hopefully he's free
He is the clear choice, super happy to hear you made the right decision! We don't get many locker codes so I feel it's important to make the choice when rare opportunities like this arrive. Hopefully we get more codes with the holidays coming up soon and in the near future.

@@chau-psncubehead1489 Gonna run my stuff on the new MT Festival and Season 3 cards later today, should know more soon on Bronny.
Nice video! Where do we find this meta score spread sheet?
I've contacted 2K about publishing these and currently working on some things related to that, so stay tuned hopefully another week or two.
Yup i picked up billups so fast
