Who are your "franchise" players?

[Lucretius8]

If you're like me, you change your lineup about as often as a girl changes clothes. However, there are some core guys that pretty much never leave my lineup. For me, they are:

1. Diamond Kevin Durant - Too good. Been there since day 1
2. Sapphire Chris Mullin - Got him when historics were released and never looked back. My most consistent shooter.
3. Sapphire Russell Westbrook - Never disappoints when I want a shoot first, dunk first, blazing fast PG on the floor

Who are your "franchise" players and why?

For me the guy who has been in my lineup the longest is onyx mo. Been in my lineup since mid domination for me. He began as a "troll" onyx testing/splash bro with saph beal and when i got better pg's like penny and walt, he has dropped to 6th man and been there ever since.

1. Onyx Oscar. He does it all, never has a bad game, can take advantage of smaller PGs yet guard bigger ones (Magic). He's the most solid player I've played with and a true floor general.
2. PD Melo. I've not used a single card that outdoes him offensively, nor has he been matched up with anyone who can guard him. He is the best shooter in the game, has some of the best layup animations, and a fantastic post game (95 control/95 postfade). His combination of speed, length, and strength combined with a quick and easy release makes him very hard to guard. He is also a better defender than his stats suggest and can guard most 3s and 4s with ease.
3. Sapphire Dr J. Scores at will, truly making it look easy. He's got at least 10-20 points a game even though I rarely run my offense through one guy. Always in the right spot on both ends of the floor, easy release, and a tenacious defender.

Honourable Mention: Diamond Damian Lillard. Possibly the most enjoyable card in the game for me. Constantly posterizes people despite his average dunk ratings, a beautiful release and one of the best pull-up games of anyone. He just gets the best animations in every area of the game, dunks, layups, release, dribble moves. He's not currently on my squad but I'll likely put him back in in favour of PD Steph and PD Isiah. He's just that good.

Definitely gold Lebron. He has been my favorite player basically since he came into the league and he was my first purchase in November at 21k. i do switch up myteam a lot but he is usually always in it

PD larry bird, PD steph and onyx wilt aren't going nowhere

[Abstruso]

The one and only Dirk Nowitzki

He is my favourite player and part of all my favourite lineups.

Leader of my Bronx Hustlers'15 lineup


Rookie in my 90s Gold Team


Starter in my All-White Lineup


MVP of my Mavs Lineup


Beta Dogs: Schrempf & Schröder

Gold Lebron

I bought him in november as one of my first gold, and has lead me up to seed 1 win.

Even now that I have better players (Sapph Dr-J) I always keep a position in starting 5 for LBJ as a tribute

[Readysetdiego]

Diamond Lillard and Hakeem. Always gotta find space for either one of them.

Probably Afro Jesus now that I have him, but since the start of MT they have been consistent in my lineups.

Diamond Durant seems to always find a way into the bench also.
