    NBA 2K17 Season Simulation Predicts Cleveland Cavaliers to Repeat as Champions


    2K has posted their NBA 2K17 season simulation, predicting another 7 game series between the Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers, with Cleveland repeating as champions.

    Last year, NBA 2K16 predicted the Warriors would beat the Cavaliers in 7.

    Other notes from the simulation:
    • Rookie of the Year - Brandon Ingram
    • Sixth Man of the Year - Brandon Knight
    • KIA Defensive Player of the Year - DeAndre Jordan
    • Kia Most Improved Player - Dennis Schröder
    • MVP - LeBron James

    What are your predictions for the upcoming season?

        Did half of the Warriors get injured, or something?

          With the exception of a few head-scratchers like the Bulls in the ECF, this actually seems fairly accurate to what I think will happen in real life. A lot of the seeding looks pretty spot on to predictions as well.

            The crazy part is that I actually want the GSW/OKC matchup in the first round IRL.

              OK, so the Celtics make it in but not the Magic....must have no love for the Magic....I'd take Ibaka, Biyambo, Vucevic, Gordon, Fournier, Payton, Green, Hezonja, Meeks over Holford, Olynyk, Crowder, Thomas, Smart and Bradley any day of the week

                You'd be one of the only ones taking that then...Celtics have a real shot at being the 2-4 seed, I can't see the Magic going any higher than the 7th or 8th seed if they even make the playoffs.

                  I'd have to politely disagree there then. I don't think I'm the only one that would take that. A lot of sports writers and fans alike think the Magic have a great shot of making the playoffs...and not sure how the writers feel about the Celtics, but if they value them as high as the 2-4 seed then I want some of what they are smoking, because that lineup is not that great

                    The Celtics were tied for the 3rd seed last season without Horford, so you think they're going to be worse with Horford or do you think other teams got that much better?

                      The Celtics are a legit #2 seed possibility this season, the Magic *might* make the playoffs. Al Horford is one the better big men in the game and was being wasted in ATL, in Boston you can expect to see him really complementing Isaiah Thomas and the other pieces. Plus, you're forgetting the Celtics have Amir Johnson, Gerald Green and Tyler Zeller which really help the bench out. Oh, and Jaylen Brown should be fun off the bench too.

                        Hornets aren't a "2k" team so I could see why they aren't in the playoffs on 2k makes sense but real life I see them nothing less than a 6th seed.

                          If they do, LeBron is confirmed the GOAT. I don't care what anyone says.

                            I just don't get what the Magic's plan is. They have an insanely crowded frontcourt with limited backcourt talent. It wouldn't shock me if they grabbed the 8th seed.

                            From last year's postseason, it wouldn't shock me if the Heat and Hornets missed the postseason.

                              I'd like to know what settings/sliders they are using because every time I start a season I got the 76ers in playoffs (8th seed) LOL
