Update: July 25th - 2K Default Roster Slider Set v1.1
Not much has changed since the last update, but these tweaks clear up a few minor issues and make the gameplay just that little-bit better. I've said it before and I'll say it again: In my opinion, my slider set takes an already great basketball video game and turned it into the
absolute best playing basketball game of all time. Now I know that is a huge, slightly-arrogant statement, but let me put it to you this way: The basketball season is over, and constantly testing and tweaking sliders can really drain on you and make the game a chore to play, but I'm STILL playing this game at 1 in the morning instead of The Witcher 3 and Grand Theft Auto V.
Want to take things to the next level?
Do yourself a favor and download EmbraceThePace's roster on PS4. He and PJT (one of my all-time favorite roster-editors) have joined forces to add all the offseason moves AND tweak player tendencies to give the most true-to-life gaming experience I've ever seen. Thanks to EmbraceThePace and PJT, it looks like 2k16 came early this year! And yes, my sliders are 100% compatible with their roster, so do yourself a favor and download it RIGHT NOW.
As for all of the XB1 users out there, I'm scanning the forums to find something similar, but as I don't have an XB1 I cannot be fully sure which custom roster will work the best. From what I can tell, Hype/DC or perhaps Stakzz & Rondo4Life seem to be your two best bets right now, so give them a try and let me know!
But enough talk, on to the sliders!

Leave any and all CONSTRUCTIVE feedback here, as I love to hear what you guys like/don't like about my set so I know what to work on! Try to point out what you are seeing too much of (ex. The AI attacks the basket too often), what you're not seeing enough of (ex. The AI does not go to the post often enough), etc. And also, it's just fun to see the results everyone is getting and to have a discussion on what can be improved/what should be left alone.
Here's a simple resource I made to help depict what exactly "realistic stats" should look like:
NBA Stats to Replicate with Sliders
Also, feel free to give my thread 5 stars and "like" this post if you enjoy my set. It shows others that these are quality sliders, and it makes me feel a little warm inside, too.
Enjoy!
