“Old Cards” that are great for budget players now

Long story short, I was checking out the AH, and I noticed Diamond Eddie Johnson going for 13k BIN and I copped one. Seems to be a pretty good card.

So I’d like this thread to help out some budget players

If you can live without a stretch 5 but want elite defense and rebounding, :gem: Dikembe is dirt cheap at under 20k

That sounds perfect for me. I don’t my center to be a stretch 5 anyways (since they’re not the main part of my offense)

Edit: Dikembe’s LQ says otherwise

Diamond hedo for 30k the one that still shocks me.

Ruby Wilt, is PD wilt, with golds instead of HOF badges (exact same badges other than that).

Bargnani is solid, Evo Andre Roberson, or Evo Livingston. A bit more pricey but diamond Anthony Davis, Paul George, and Odom is crazy. Still.
And I like Kenyon… Even at diamond only. And as pd he’s really solid

I’ve run Dikembe since the day he came out, great card. Put a stretch 4 next to him and you’re as good as gold

I use Amy Chandler or DeAndre Jordan in this role. That price does seem okay for Dikembe

Yeah I use Chandler too, I’m just waiting for the “Larry Sanders” budget badass to appear before we get rollin’.

Ruby Eddie Jones, Amy Pierce are cheap and still solid for budget squads. Forgot sapphire Shaq with HOF badges on day 1.

Amy Kobe still has elite animations and one the easiest to green shots in the game

The fuck? On ps4? Not home. Eddie Johnson for 13k is insane.

That’s what I’m saying. No, he’s on Xbox One

Just copped an Amy Van Horn for 8k BIN. I’ll check this card out at PF

Btw, though the stats are a bit lackluster. Ruby Oakley is a must cop if you love defense. For whatever reason, Oakley gives Giannis and Ben problems at the rim

Ruby Aaron Gordon is also a good guy with clamps

Diamond siakam is also a great pf

Ruby exum has 42 gold badges…
Ruby robertson is my favorite budget card
Amy fultz and basicaly the entire new years resolution set except arenas and petit is so damn good and cheap, even rondo is around 40k
Diamond josh smith was around 25k when I picked him up, him, granger and kirilenko are amazing for their price
