Does anyone even care about the Season and Playoff game modes?

My Player and Association is good enough, I think they just threw Season and Playoff just for the sake of it, it's just generic and not needed.

I disagree, especially for the playoff mode.

Maybe some people don't have the time to complete multiple years in association and want to just play a season or the playoffs

I disagree. I like doing real seedings once the real playoffs start and playing the games as or before/after the happen. Getting the right seeds would be so difficult in association.

Agree, I play just one season with current rosters each and every year. Never have I simulated through games or seasons, I'm not into that and never will. Season mode is my favorite thing about any sports title.

I don't like the Association mode (or whatever it's called) because I just want to play with my team all season long and try to get to the playoffs. Don't really care about trading and management, I just want accurate rosters and to play.

I can't stand anything that's got to do with managing a team. It's a basketball video game, I want to play a season, not looking at menus for an hour.

So to answer the question, I care about the season mode. To me, the Association is worthless. But that's me.

I use Association for current teams and Season Mode for classic teams (as multiple years and a draft would make historic teams a little rough).

Curious question, can the user alter each option before they begin an Association and run that mode like a Season Mode and then just quit after the first year ends? Or are their some management options that just can't be turned off in Association?

Yes you can do this. You might be prompted when a player is injured or for trades once, but you can select an option for no more notifications and let the cpu do all the work.
