In the midst of all of the Pokémon GO mania, NBA LIVE Mobile has snuck up to the top of the App Store and Google Play rankings in very short order. This latest iteration of EA Sports’ NBA franchise redoes the gameplay of the series for mobile purposes and brings the entire NBA roster, plus a number of throwback all-stars and hall-of-farmers into the fold, for those who have enough gold coins and NBA cash. Read on for some tips and tricks for NBA LIVE Mobile!
When you first begin the game, it can seem extremely difficult due to the learning curve and the incredible lack of probability of making shots, as well as the jump in difficulty between season matches. You’ll need to rack up coins for better players so head over to the Head to Head mode and find players whose overall team ratings are below or equal to yours. Use them for practice and to earn coins.
Out of all of your available lineups, pick the one with the stat boosts (and the overall score) that will match up best against the opposing team or simply that will fit your intended strategy. Shooting lineups add to your shooting and 3 pointer ability. 2-way adds to your passing and defense. Defense adds to your defense and speed. Big Man adds to your defense and shooting. Small Ball adds to your speed and dribbling.

The best use of a limited number of coins in the store is the beginner pack, which contains one silver card. Instead, take your money straight to the auction area. Start building up a lineup full of silver players, and if you want, flesh out your other lineups as well. Earn a whole lot more gold coins, then start searching for even higher-tier players.
Leagues are this game’s version of alliances, and teams in a league will earn points for their league, as well as rewards, depending on how often they win, so be sure to join an active league that participates often. It helps to join a league full of big spenders as bonuses are sent around any time that someone in the league buys NBA Cash (the premium currency of the game).
Completing achievements is one of the quickest ways to earn large amounts of gold coins. Hit the Achievements menu and use the tab at the top to scroll back and forth between all of the different categories (representing all of the different playing modes as well as different tiers of difficulty). There is a chance that some of them could earn you NBA Cash, though so far none have been proven to yet.
