It’s too massive and there’s literally zero $$$ incentive to make improvements in this mode.

I could see maybe by 2k25-26 this mode fleshed out, but by then more players will have likely vanished due to not securing a new deal as I’m sure it’s expensive to negotiate so many players individually. By then it’s also not new anymore and doubtful it will be a marketable mode for them, so who knows. I could see the mode staying buggy as hell or actually 2k scrapping it all together, at least make it less big, since it’s a big head ache I’m sure.
For me I would rather have these new modes, with the bugs/glitches/inconsistencies and all. I haven’t even touched myTEAM or the Jordan Challenges yet because of all I am doing in the myERAS mode. Again this is coming from a strictly offline player so obviously those who prefer the online modes may disagree with me.

Yes myERAs was ambitious but the end product we got is at least functional. Hopefully throughout the course of this game’s life cycle, we will get the updates and fixes we need. But I don’t think the modes should be scrapped. If anything for next year, pretty much everyone is expecting some sort of Kobe Challenges for 2K24. I am a big supporter of putting more into the game than taking stuff out. Again if it’s a buggy, convoluted mess 2K can’t fix, then I understand scrapping the mode all together

Amen to this.

Specially for old heads like me, to be able to play in the 90s with these 90s teams is a joy, never mind it is incomplete. (hey we have the 2k community who can create rosters for that)

Re: 2K23 The JORDAN Era - JORDAN and the BULLS in ACTION

LOS ANGELES -- It's Game 5 of the 1991 NBA Finals, and was supposed to be the coronation for the new king. But Magic Johnson also gets a second chance too, and went on to show he's still got the DOG in him.

Game link: https://youtu.be/piEZ45rgFqk

It was a close game in the first, with lead back and forth between the Bulls and the Lakers. Magic Johnson established himself in the post early, scoring 13 in the period and also facilitating the offense. He was looking like the best player on the court early. Michael Jordan had a great quarter too, with 19 pts 4 assts. Chicago holds a trim one point lead after one 29-28.

In the second quarter, Jordan continued to dominate. He helped he Bulls to a lead as high as 9 pts. The Lakers big men started to connect towards the end of the period, helping narrow the gap to as little as 2. However, Jordan would respond with 3 straight baskets, and gets the lead back up to 8 going into the half 53-45.

THe thrid quarter, Chicago continued to hold the lead over the Lakers with steady offense from Jordan and Pippen. Lakers would not fold though, as they kept fighting on with a balanced attack and increased tempo. While Magic was able to match Jordan offensively, his supporting cast stepped up in a big way, combining for 21 pts in the period. The Lakers finally grabbed the lead from the Bulls with an inside shot from Magic with 3 mins to go in the period. The Lakers momentum continued to the end of the period as the Lakers take a 3 pt lead heading into the final quarter, 79-75.

The 4th quarter was a battle of the superstars. Jordan and Pippen would score 14 pts each in this period, trying to will the Bulls into victory. However, whenever Jordan and Pippen would threaten to narrow the gap, Magic Johnson would respond hit the big shots to keep them at bay. He was simply remarkable, scoring like he has never had in a Final since maybe his rookie year in Game 7 of the NBA Finals.He had 18 4th quarter points, with his biggest bucket coming at 1:36, hitting a tough shot fading away versus Scottie Pippen that kept the Lakers lead to 6 in a crucial moment. He would then make two big assists and a crucial steal in the final possessions to put the final touches for a Lakers win 119-108.

History is rewritten with the Lakers winning Game 5, pushing MJ and the 1991 Bulls to a Game 6.

Both superstars came to play in Game 5 finishing with 50-pt double-doubles.

Magic finished with 51 pts 5 rebs 10 assts 3 sts. Jordan had 57 pts 3 rebs 19 assts 3 stl.

It was the supporting cast that made the difference though, as the Lakers stepped up big time in the absence of Bryon Scott and James WOrthy .T.Smith 19, AC 18 - 6, Teagle 15.

Pippen was the only other Bull in double figures, finishing with 28 pts 7 rebs.

My First attempt at the JORDAN CHALLENGE: START of a DYNASTY. Magic Johnson was simply SPECTACULAR.

Tasks:
1. Wind the game
2. Score 30 pts get 10 assts
3. Shoot 50% or better from the field and Grab 4 rebs

Re: 2K23 The JORDAN Era - JORDAN and the BULLS in ACTION

It's "The Shrug" game recreated and it was a thrilling finish to the first half as Jordan tried to bury his 6th 3-pointer of the half.

Game link: https://youtu.be/BvxzQ55ZAHo

The Blazers struggled early. Two early baskets form John Paxson, both assists from MJ, plus another 3 from MJ, helped the Bulls grab a 10-0 lead to start the game. THe Blazers contineud to shoot poorly, managing only 12 pts. Michael Jordan was feeling it. He would have 2 threes in the period en route to 20 first quarter points, outscoring the entire Blazers team, as the Bulls go up by 20, 32-12 after the first quarter.

Terry Porter and Clyde Drexler came alive in the 2nd, scoring 9 each. THey got to within 14 pts with 15 secs remaining. Jordan however continued his expoliosve game, scoring another 20 pts in the period, with 4 3-pointers, including one as time was winding down in the period. This would be his 6th 3-pointer of the first half, setting an NBA Finals record and gave his Iconic SHRUG after.


Its 56-39 at the half. Jordan has outsocred the entire Blazer team in the first half by himself. He netted 40 pts at the half, an NBA FInals record.

It was still lopsided to begin the thrid quarter, with lead balooning to as much as 23. The BLazers did put together a solid run, led by Kevin Duckworth down low. THey were able to put more pressure on Jordan with double teams, but MJ's teamates could not connect on their jumpshots. THey lead was cut to 12 with less than a minute ago. Jordan however would score the last 5 pts and bring the lead back up to 15 81-66.

In the fourth quarter, the BLazers continued to pressure the Bulls, and threatened to cut the lead into single digits multiple times. The Bulls, however, maintained their composure, and led by Scottie Pippen, finished the quarter strong, outscoring the Blazers 17-8 to close out the game and win convincingly.


Final score: 111-90


Jordan finishes with 71 pts 5 rebs 9 assists 4 stls. Pippen had 15 pts 8 rebs 5 assts.

Drexler finsihed with 15 pts, and was almost shut out the entire 2nd half where he managed to score only 2 pts. . Kevin Duckworth led the Blazers with 25 pts 14 rebs, 18 in the second half. Terry Porter added 18 pts 11 assts.

Re: 2K23 The JORDAN Era - JORDAN and the BULLS in ACTION

SAN ANTONIO -- It's 1993 and the San Antonio Spurs were spearheaded by budding superstar and future HoFer David Robinson. Dale Ellis had just been aquired by San Antonio from Milwaukee and provided a great matchup for Michael Jordan and the Bulls.

Game link: https://youtu.be/6cabqxnxa7w

The Bulls had the upper hand early, leading by as much as double digits in the first half. The Spurs slowly got back in the game in the 2nd quarter, with the eruption of Dale Ellis who would have 17 first half points. Bulls keep a 3-pt lead at the half, 45-42

The Spurs rallied to take a 2 pt lead in the 3rd behind strong play from Terry Cummings and Dale Ellis. Game tied at 70 at the end of the 3rd

It was a back and forth between the two in the first half of the 4th quarter, exhanging leads multiple times. Game was tied at 77 midway. Jordan and H.Grant would push the Bulls ahead by 5, but the SPurs would answer with an 8-1 run of their own, led by The Admiral who would score 8 in the 4th. It remained close in the last 2 mins, and the Bulls were hanging on a 3pt lead after a tough fadeaway from Jordan with 2 mins to go. Neither teams could score in the succeeding possessions. The Spurs had one final play with 26 secs to go to cut into the lead, but Avery Johnson would turn it over on a pick-n-roll with Robinson. They would foul Bill Cartwright twice and Cartwright would make 1 out of 4 FT's, enough to secure the win.

Bulls hang on to a 93-89 victory.

Jordan was PoG with 31 pts 3 rebs 11 assts with 2 stls. SCottie Pippen added 25, while Horace Grant had a double double with 10 pts 11 rebs.

David Robinson had 22 pts 18 rebs 6 blks. Dale Ellis had 21. 5 players from SA finsihed in double figures.
