I figured it out...
This week is Stockton (set) and AD (pack) for certified
Next week is KD (set) and Rodman (pack) for rewind with Draymond (Set) and Hill (pack) for certified
The week after that is Bird (set) and Carter (pack) for rewind with Francis (set) and Smith Jr. (pack) for certified

Damn! I knew it wouldn't work out in my favor. I wanted Hill and Smith Jr. to be the sets. Of course Stockton just gotta be the set, someone at EA has a twisted sense of humor lol.

Yeah the worst (by far) 100+ card is the set instead of one of the best because they have to make people spend cash

Agreed why can't EA stop the money grab stuff for the last two weeks at least.

I had a peek forward too and saw all the token exchange sets for the Certified players. I think you can safely assume that there won't be a way to grind the older players.
How does the token exchange set work?

He means exchanging the elite certified tokens for the player specific tokens like we currently have for Stockton and we had for the other set certified cards

With about 4 weeks to go before the 'scheduled' reset last year, EA released Kings of the court packs and it flooded the game with thousands of 94+ players and subsequently the AH had a major crash as everyone tried to sell. You were able to get a reasonably good OVR team to start you off for this season without much trouble. Just over 2 weeks to go now and there's no sign or information that something similar is going to happen. That surprises me, because they haven't given us anything to hook us into going for another season, even the reward system for S3 is broken. If the reset is in the next few weeks they've dropped the ball. No cards for the new rookies, no new courts, no previews. The season should be building to an inspiring crescendo but there's nothing to do.

I can't speak on anything else because I don't have an explanation for it but the new courts thing last season was because they made them in NBA Live 18 so to help promote it they made them in this game too and then kept them for this season but in NBA Live 19 they will have the ability to make custom courts which is something that is too big for this game so hence why we didn't get anything new in that area of the game

How did you guys get to jump forward and see the sets early? I want to turn in certified tokens for upcoming masters. Thanks!

That's not possible if you try to do a set that isn't out yet it crashes the game

EA have flooded the market four times in the past month or so. If that hasn't had an effect on prices then there are simply too many coins on the global server. If they do release coin packs I wouldn't expect them until the final week.

As far as previews go. I imagine they're still working on Season 3. They don't seem to develop content particularly far in advance. Certainly not with NBALM. To be honest, I'd rather have them work on Season 3 than release sneak previews of beta content. If they're organized they'll send advance copies to the Game Changers like last season.

Season Score has been poorly handled which doesn't inspire a lot of confidence but in the long run Season Score is meaningless.

The season-ending content isn't bad. The cards are pretty good and realistically most people can acquire a Pantheon or a Certified player. The problem is the means of acquiring them are boring.

Prices have dropped a lot but expectations are that 95s will go for 200k when 95s this year are like 99s last year
 
I see. They are around 750K on Asia. I keep going back and forth on whether the prices will rise when Durant and Bird drop. I don't want to blow the remaining coins I have left on a poor investment.

They're around 1-1.2 last I checked but the cards that are actually comparable to 95s last year are 90s and they go for 200k so it's technically on par with last season

There are 10 GT?s, 12 rewinds and about 30 certifides, mostly Stockton, in my AH. Other than having the International promo I wouldn?t consider that flooding the market in the past month. The tide looks out from where I sit.

It emptied out some recently due to people buying them but I didn't say it was flooded with all iveralls just that it's flooded with cards equal to that of last seasons max overall once training is accounted for and that's true all of those cards are able to reach 106+ something we didn't have last season so can't really expect the AH to be filled with them
 
They flooded the market with 91+ cards, 95+ platinums at the end of the GT promo, 90 OVR cards from the Now and Later packs, and 95+ cards from the platinum exchange set. The pre-patched platinum exchange set on the global server was arguably better than a Kings of the Court pack.

A 95 ovr is worth 500k training points. Would that change your price expectations?

Yeah I don't see TP in bunches like that being worth less then 1:1 ratio and right now it's still trainer as much but the 90s have the best value to this day

What will SD bonus be?

That isn't something that is able to be looked up until it comes out so we'll have to wait a few more hours for China to get it but I'm sure they will keep it at a Certified player because it's just easier that way
