I've simmed up to 2025 using draft classes from OS. Here's how the landscape looks

Memphis Sounds went 78-4 under my vague guidance...

...Aaaaand then lost to Lonzo Ball & Jayson Tatum's Blazers in the 2nd round

You should do this again. Please do.

Barnsey, I have a question about your league settings.

I enjoy god mode and sprinkling changes here and there. My biggest issue in my first attempt is the salary cap and the inability to sign players in free agency free about year 3 or 4.

What do you place the slary cap at? Is the Hard Cap on or off?

Any other details to assist with this?

Thanks!

Using similar to the draft classes u did, I also went in and edited guys to my liking and added in some guys in each class. I'm using: 2017 EmbraceThaPace 2018 EmbraceThaPace 2019 FDU1 2020 FDU2 2021 FDU3 2022 JazzMan1 2023 MarvellousOne and will use JazzMan2 for 2024. I immediately expanded MyLeague to 36 teams and just had those 6 teams sign washed up players for the first 3 years and tank and pretend like they are not there. I would have expanded gradually but I like controlling every move made by every team instead of trusting the computer to get in done well. Though that process can be stupidly time consuming and frustrating, so I turn some financial and trade rules off and just do things my way. Just more enjoyable that way. Now heading into the offseason and into the FDU1 class, those expansion teams will be given the first 6 picks and will finally be looking to be active and competing franchises. In mine, LeBron and Paul George just joined Lonzo on the Lakers and are destroying the league. Anthony Davis was just acquired by the Celtics for a huge haul of players and draft picks. Warriors have repeated in 2017 and 2018 and just played the last regular season game of 2019 against the Lakers with the number 1 seed on the line and fell to the Lakers. Potentially looking at a Celtics vs Lakers run here. So glad 2K added the ability to expand and redesign the entire league. I can't even play Madden and The Show anymore because of this and I'm not even mad. My created player is in FDU1 and I'm about to draft him to my favorite expansion team and play more game and sim a little slower and enjoy it. Think I'm going to be playing 2K17 for a long time. Maybe try to sim/play into 2035 or so.

Can you guys post those gamertags, if this is for Xbox. I’d like to get those draft classes
