Unfortunately I haven't found a way to make sure he's still there cause there's no retirement option for him

Running through some more test sims.

Utah has the 2nd worst defense in points allowed per game in year 1 at 103.5.

For comparison, last year they allowed 95.9 (IRRC) points per game last year. So either they upped their tempo BIG time (they scored 101.3 PPG), or their defensive ratings are terribly off.

Looking at the roster, the defensive ratings aren't good. Favors and Gobert both have B+ interior defender ratings, as they should. But Hayward is just a "C" defender, while Hood is a C+, even though Hayward is easily the better defender. George Hill, noted to be a good defender, has a C perimeter defense rating.

This was a team that was shutting down offenses with Raul Neto at point guard. You're telling me that adding George Hill, getting back Exum (a fantastic defender), and having Favors and Gobert healthy makes Utah the 2nd worst defense in the league? Okay then lol

Lower offensive consistency.

Lowered it to 40 then 35 then 30. Fg% goes down but 3pt% remains crazy but youll have fewer people shooting over 40%.

I just tried & he wasn't. Man, Kobe was on the legend edition cover. The least 2k could have done was make him available via this workaround!! Haha

Seriously if you check it's literally last year's roster minus just Kobe like tf

Good points, guys.

Do we think that these open 3pt trends are simply to reflect the wave of basketball currently taking shape? 3pt shooting is the new dunk.

You do have a point, though and it probably technically isn't working how they intended. Again, absolutely could be tweaked.

Exactly!! It's really weird he's the only player not included.

For anyone who cares this is what I'm seeing in MyLeague. It doesn't seem crazy but some of these percentages are a bit out there.

A closer look at Wall. I'm all for player improvement but man he increased his overall FG% and 3PT% by 50 points each:

Regarding expansion, there are sacrifices you'll need to make no matter how you start:

Start in offseason, you'll have messed up Bird years.

Start at regular season, you'll not be given a chance to hire your own staff and miss the draft.

Sim ahead a year and then expand, your team will not appear anywhere in alphabetical order lol.

Small issues, but sharing in case anyone cares.

Well you have 24 guys shooting at least 40%. Last season the NBA had 36 players who attempted at least 50 threes and made 40% of them. Seems like there is just the wrong guys

So I'm going to start a myleague and use an expansion team in Baltimore. It is one of the basketball capitols of the world so its only right we get a team.

However I'm somewhat torn on what to do out west. I need another expansion team for symmetry. The obvious choice is the Seattle Supersonics. But I also want to rebrand/relocate the Clippers in order to free up the name for my Baltimore team. Last year I just relocated them to Baltimore. I could do that this year, but:
1. I don't like their roster. Just not a fan of most players.
2. Going the expansion route gives me implemented audio for my Baltimore team. Does anyone know what happens if I rebrand the Barons though?
3. I love the idea of building a team from scratch.

I'd rather not keep the Barons brand, but if changing it causes me to lose audio I may have to. Yet it may also make this a shortlived myleague.

Anyway, I'll be simming year 1 to take control in year 2. I downloaded the 2017 draft class and made a few changes. I lowered most of the top 10 picks and added these guys (some may recognize names from my Madden posts :P)

Spoiler

C Ben Riely -- 7'1". A traditional low post shot blocker kind of guy. Rebounding will need work, but a solid scorer and rim protector. 76 OVR, 94 POT

PF Deon Clark -- 6'10" A low post scorer. Decent interior defender/rebounder but definitely geared towards scoring. Think Karl Malone, but his shot is decent enough that he could develop a good midrange game. 77 ovr, 94 pot

SF Brandon McGee -- 6'6". A scorer in the mold of Kobe/MJ. He doesn't do defense, or really anything other than scoring very well, but damn can he fill up the box score. 82 ovr, 99 pot

SF/PF Davon Austin -- 6'8". The anti-McGee. Not a great scorer but does everything else very good. Lockdown defender, solid rebounder, good passing skills, etc. 84 OVR, 96 pot

SG Kevin Williams -- 6'3". Iverson/Wade reborn. Can beat everyone off the dribble, and he needs to because shooting needs a lot of work. Excellent perimeter defender as well. 83 ovr, 95 pot

I basically created these guys the same way I always do, but for whatever reasons their overall is far higher than what it has been in the past. Usually Austin is the best with a 81, while second is typically a 79. Not sure what has changed.

And yeah, it is a unbalanced draft class, but I balance it by dropping other prospects and making the next couple of classes weaker than usual.

I should be able to land 1 of those 5, and I'll build my team around them.

If you win the chip, does a championship tag get added to the jersey?
