16 got me real into MyGM. It seemed too easy to get favorable trades and end up with 4-5 1st round picks every year while still making it to the finals though. Did the difficulty you set at the start matter for the simulation? Or just played games

Weird that Michael B Jordan and Kobe's but from the Apple TV commercial is spilling into this game.

Can you re-do the prelude without redownloading it?

Really excited to see the celebration mechanics this year. Sad to see that the JR celebration that matters didn't make it though

I noticed that some (maybe all?) have multiple animations each. Like the "scream" one seems to have like 8 different animations if you idle on it.

I've never messed around with MyPlayer before, how do you throw a pick as a big man

Hold circle/B and if it makes sense the ball handler will use it. Make sure to stay put unless you're trying to pick up a foul.

Is there any downside to asking for more money with endorsements? Will any just say "never mind" and never contact you again? Any of the "lifetime" deals I've seen I've asked for more and gotten it a few days later.

Does Freq exist in this timeline?? I made the cover of Dime and it says "-Freq comes into his own" or is this just a lazy holdover from 16

I think it might have been a mistake, looking on twitter it sounds like Shaq calls you Freq at one point.

I'm real interested to see what happens at the end of the first season because I appear to be on a 1 year deal and he's on a 2. Maybe he Vic's off this earth before I hit free agency?

On the Bulls I ended up with Kevin Dunn and Boogie Cousins

Yeah I need to do this. I started a mygm file with the Blazers and just stared at Evan Turner's contract for awhile then went back to career mode.

In previous years when you were in game you could see some of the player stat grades when you were controlling them in the upper right hand corner. Is that gone now? I'm not seeing a setting for it.

My favorite cut scene is you sitting in the couch looking at your phone for about 10 seconds and then it either goes back to the game or into an unrelated cutscene.

There's one with the girlfriend that I don't understand she breaks up with you then you call Justice and say "it's done" with a huge smile. Then later I got a text from her acting like everything's cool.

Whatever rear end in a top hat made the "Player is concerned with practices being too heavy/light" system needs to be fired. It's just completely broken. You make the promise, immediately change the player's training to the way they want it, even if you max it out and they'll say you broke the promise. You literally cannot keep the promise. Nothing works. Upping/lowering the individual player, upping/lowering team practices, nothing. You can only deny and coddle or deny and tough love. Your options are slow or fast attrition of player loyalty and that's a bullshit, easy-to-discover bug that has no business being in this game at this stage of its release.

If you progress forward a day after you talk to them it seems to help. I started ignoring those too though. Still really wish there was a "Listen. A super star is at your position. You aren't going to start over them. You are coming off the bench." option.

I think it was more common in 16 but yeah that just happened to me a few days ago. Fouled out, benched, subbed back in for maybe 30 seconds until a timeout. I thought maybe multiple people got hurt but nope.

Now that the Blazers have picks I thought I'd hop into Start Today and see what I could do. Nothing, cause the Blazers only have their own pick. Not protected Grizzlies' from the Plumlee trade or the Cavs'. Rosters are correct and Verajao's on the books though. What the heck 2k

I know it's early to get hyped for 2k18 but I really can't wait to play it on a Switch. MyLeague mode on the go is going to take up too much of my time.

I didn't even think about this. I've spent countless hours simming seasons only to start over once I won a few championships or players I liked retired. I would love to be able to waste that time on the go

Y'all if you have a parent who is into basketball please sim through a season with them calling the shots in MyLeague. My mom just came over and had me build the blazers around a starting lineup of Tim Frazier, Pat Connaughton, Moe Harkless, Noah Vonleh, and Jusuf Nurkic.

Robin Lopez and Serge Ibaka were coming off the bench.

They finished the season 13-69. Once free agency hit we signed P Conn to a 5 year 50 mil contract. It was all real funny.

I know they're not made by the same companies, but EA coming out and saying the Switch versions of their sports games won't have the same story mode as Xbox/PS4 has me worried.

If the switch version is feature-identical to the others, that's what I'm going with. I can live without 4K graphics if it means myleague from bed.

Lillard has at least two songs on the soundtrack, but I don't think they've announced any "guest curators" yet
