This is always a fun topic of discussion. It's a reminder that things we consider "videogamey," arcadey, or non-sim happen in real sports, sometimes more often than we think. This list is only a small fraction of instances where this is true. There is a lot that could be added to this list.
Some that I came up with:
-Patriots 16-0 season along with how well Brady and Moss played that season.
-Many of Curry's unbelievable performances, especially those MVP seasons.
-Kobe's 81 point game, Booker's 70 point game.
-Possibly the current Patriots with the way their defense is playing and the point differential they are putting up.

This is a great discussion which is why video games are not true simulations because the code influences some outcomes versus the real life “any given Sunday” Or “1 punch chance“ situations. There were many times when playing 2K18 against GSW and being down only 2 pts with a few mins left and the CPU create missed close shots, or hit moving 3 pts, and convenient turnovers because they were OP against any team. *I hope next gen consoles will have the ability of adaptive coding in which the AI doesn’t influence outcomes*

one game shouldnt make or break a sim experience.
the problem is that folks tweak sliders too quickly.
