NBA 2K14: Six Teams for MyGM

[gmax57]

The trade logic in 2k makes it possible to make any team a contender. I had a Pistons MyGM and teams kept offering me 1st round picks for Chauncey Billups. Actual NBA teams only trade 1st round picks for premium talent (except maybe for the Knicks and Nets). Unfortunately, you have to play with house rules to make MyGM a challenge.

Just started one with Milwaukee. They have a couple of bad contracts, and no real "superstar." Thinking the best way to attack it is to offload what expendable assets there are (Mayo, Butler & Ilyasova) to try and get some picks.

Noooo don't trade Mayo. His mid range game is legit (I've played a bit with this team). I would keep Knight as well. Everyone else is expendable.

I have yet to encounter a sports game where house rules aren't necessary so that's a given. I always slant the trade to the cpu advantage.

How about the Suns? Build the team around Len and Bledsoe?

Bledsoe yes. Len - not so much.

What about Denver trying to be a Western Conference powerhouse but lacks the star power, they have grreat talent with 13 of the 15 under the age of 30

I so want to do a Charlotte MyGM, but after year one they would still be the Bobcats and there's not even a way to wear throwbacks to at least have some of the Hornets motif around.

I played as the Lakers and won 32 games season 1, but tanked and traded anything I could for first round picks. Had a great draft with 3 top 20 picks. I then ended up being able to trade Kobe and 2 of those picks to OKC for Durant with one of the GM special moves (I think it was player pump up). Not realistic at all, but I just had to do it.

I started one with the Kings.... Came straight out the gate moving pieces... I gave away draft picks that weren't gonna be anything cuz I'm gonna win... No lottery picks for me... I have Eric Bledsoe, Klay Thompson, Rudy Gay, Gallinari, and Cousins.... My bench is so so... Trade finder works wonders...

I did a MyGM with the Bucks a while ago. Traded Mayo and I think Sanders to the Jazz for their 1st round pick. Anyway, during the draft I landed the #1 and #3 picks. I then traded my #3 pick and Giannis for the #2 pick. I ended up drafting both Wiggins and Parker. A few years later I acquired Rubio via trade (can't remember what for) and Shumpert for Ilyasova and other assets. Fast forward to the year 2020 and my core of Rubio, Shumpert, Parker, Wiggins, Henson and a generic player drafted #3 in the 2015 draft have won 3 straight NBA titles.

By the way, I didn't play any games- just simulated them all whilst only doing GM duties as well as assigning player rotations/minutes as I don't like the way the CPU does it.

I was rocking with Cleveland for a little while, but then I got back into MyCareer, so...I just wasted 10 seconds of your time. Sorry.

The wizards by far. Best young PG in the league with a deadly 3 pt shooter to kick out to on the drive. Gortat is nice down low. And 2k loves Nene so you can trade him and get quality back.

It was challenging for me to get the Grizzlies under the salary cap and not totally suck. I had to trade away some of my favorite players because of their $17M salaries.
