Do you guys play every game during the season?

I do just because I'm only doing 29 games. If I did a full 82 I would sim more.

Re: SimWorld Presents: The NBA2K17 Fictional Draft Class Thread (for Xbox One)

I personally haven't gotten through all the chronology stuff (i have an extended one with more injuries, other changes, etc.) and just get burned out of going through at all over and over again because id like, forget to save constantly and forget something important, or the standings are wonk, or Embiid plays at the end of the season and wins ROY when he's not supposed to (just happened to me actually, and my personal opinion about ROY so dont @ me). Im paying super close attention to it all now so this will be the last time and im officially on my real save that ill use so ill be onto year 2 soon, but above is the reason why im so far behind.

- After a superb December, Louisville freshman Ramon Upshaw has jumped into the race as a player of the year candidate and may be the frontrunner (above Brent Christmas) as he is now averaging 27.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.8 steals per game.

- Utah junior C Taquon Austin may be in some deep ish as SimWorld.com reports that he may have accepted on a house for his mother last year. Yellz reported that after speaking with Taquon’s mother Tamia Austin, the claims are false but stated that her son would be entering the draft this year. He currently is fourth in the nation in blocks and is one of the best defensive big men in the country.

- Former Miami guard Shamarr Ballard stated in a recent interview that although he has love for fellow ACC baller Ramon Upshaw “Brent Christmas is the best player in college basketball right now”.

- With a large chunk of the season completed, let us look at SimWorld’s three Big Boards of prospects….

IF YOU HAVE ANYONE CONTRIBUTED TO THE DC1 INSTALLMENT OF OUR DRAFT CLASSES, PLEASE PM ME SO WE CAN SET UP INTERVIEWS FOR THE DRAFT OF OUR VIRTUAL NBA CHRONICLE

Just wanted to say I really enjoy your work!

Re: SimWorld Presents: The NBA2K17 Fictional Draft Class Thread (for Xbox One)

I've really been enjoying DC4 so far. I've taken over the Heat in MyLeague and took Ballard with the 4th pick. Definitely one of my favourite players out of all your draft classes. Running pick and roll with him, and making defenders look silly in isolation has been too fun.

Also really enjoyed playing against some the other prospects in the class, especially BJM, Archer Payne, and Kael Gage.

BJM is constantly making highlight reel plays and is fun to watch. The kings took BJM and Bryce Desimone in last years draft and are fighting for the last playoff spot, after finishing in the bottom five last year. They have really turned the team around.

Archer Payne has taken over the starting job in New York and is helping them fight for a playoff spot. He's really picked me apart with his passing everytime I've played him.

It's been great, Excited to see what DC5 brings. Some fascinating players in this class for sure.

Would love to hear more about the play styles of prospects, even if its just the top few prospects. Went down the rabbit hole reading your old NBA 2k14 draft classes the other night and remembered how much I love the little profiles you guys would do on each player.

That being said, I know you guys are super busy and it's a ton of work. I'm more than happy and grateful for whatever content you guys can put out.

Not sure if this happened with anyone else but derwin was a complete and utter bust. He's 27 years old now and only an 81 overall and his stats have gotten worse ever since his rookie year.

Glad I didn't pick him lol. I actually took Okocha with the first pick and he's the best power forward in the league right now

What version if the DCs did you use? I'm using silver version. I've just started season 5 and Derwin is rated 80 or 81 OVR on mine. He's had significant injuries every season which hasn't helped him! He's a VERY good shooter and coming off the bench as the 6th man for the Celtics behind Avery Bradley (82 OVR). Okocha looks like a future super star. He's taken the Pittsburgh Force to the playoffs almost on his own the past 2 seasons and is a consistant 20p 10 reb guy rated 84 OVR.

I wouldn't go as far as calling Derwin a bust in my SW yet and I'm curious to see what would happen if he could stay healthy and play 75+ games this season - but I'm almost certain he won't turn into the next LeBron or something similar...

I'm also using the silver version. He's like an 81-83 overall in his like 6-7th year in the league and he's coming off the bench as the sixth man for the Nuggets under Jamal Murray.

I called him a bust because he was so hyped up in college like he was gonna be one of the greatest shooters ever but obviously he didn't live up to that hype. I guess he's not really a bust, but I don't think he ever reached his full potential
