P4P Best Card

[synistr]

In your opinion who is the Pound for Pound best card in the game...all things considered as to how they play for you. We don't care about ratings here.

For me, I don't even have to think for this one.

Penny Hardaway. He is the best card for me all things considered. In RTTP and in Challenges he is my 1st or 2nd leading scorer always. He always gets great assists. He plays at SG so it gives me another Floor General on the court...or at least one if my PG doesn't have that badge. He is the best finisher I have played with bar-none. He finishes dunks amazingly. He rarely gets blocked. Lebron, MJ, Grant Hill, Vince, are all incredible finishers when dunking especially but Penny finishes more contested layups. He gets a lot of and-1's too. Did I mention he is a great passer? Another thing that he has been surprisingly good at is hitting the 3. I have had one or two games where he was cold that I can remember, other than that, he is a solid 3pt shooter, better than ratings.

I added Corner Specialist, Perimeter Lockdown Defender, and Limitless Range. So he that makes him an above average 3pt shooter and a solid defender because I always have him on the floor with a defensive anchor.

To top it off, this card was free as I have the reward card making it an easy choice for my best card.

Runner Up: Reward Ralph Sampson
Honorable Mention: DR Draymond, Patrick Beverly, Silver Scottie Pippen.

For me it has to be Rockets McGrady. Outruns everyone on the fastbreak and finishes in traffic over anybody. Lockdown Defender individually and helps his teammates defensively with the Defensive Anchor badge. I can even knock down 3's with him consistently and his Dimer badge is an added bonus that turns him into a great playmaker as well.

For me, Raptors TMac plays the best. He can finish with the best of them, and he can drain them from downtown. He also plays great defense. He is the lowest rated player in my lineup at 83, but I can't get rid of him.

McGrady is my favorite player and my franchise player. I start my teams with him. Gold in RTTP restricted and my plan is for him to be the first Diamond card I purchase. Once I get him I will build around him. He and Penny avg about 18ppg each in restricted seeds. Love T-Mac. Still, for me, he doesn't shoot it, finish it, or pass it as well as Penny....he is a lovely scoring machine however. Penny has never let me down once, and thats likely because he does so many things well.

oh yes, and Raptors T-Mac is a much better dunk finisher than Rockets.

I would love to have Penny, but there is no chance of that happening. One of my top 3 players of all time.

oh yeah? far away in card count? not saying the Historic one isnt worth it but I wouldnt be able to play with it after using the Reward one. He is still kinda pricey....he is as much as a lot of AS Amethysts. The Historic only has one stat that is better and that's moving 3.

Yeah, I am not anywhere close to having enough cards to collect the reward version. I have thought about selling my Amethyst Chris Paul and trying to go after Penny, but Paul plays great for me.
