I think the main thing about MyLeague is the customizations to do what you want, and I love that.

Re: NLSC Podcast Interview w/ Leftos - NBA 2K16 MyLeague & MyGM(More info revealed)
Just a matter of curiosity on why it's unfortunate. Is it something about mimicking the real NBA league or whatevers? Example, roll back in history. Real Jason Kidd retires and goes into NBA coaching. Virtual Jason Kidd retires and there's no way to "force" Jason Kidd to coach the same NBA team as real life ... or am I completely off track. Again, just curious.Comment

I thought I read somewhere that we could not boot someone from league and they would have to leave themselves and that if they did it would be CPU team there on out without being able to invite another user? So, if this is not true and we can then that's HUGE for leagues as we all know there is always a few of those guys that have to leave or are booted.Basketball Playbooks

I thought I remembered him saying something along the lines of "he's never seen the audio team work any harder than now". Maybe I misheard.
There's that... but simply put: this is MyLeague, "my sandbox"! The more options, the better!Just a matter of curiosity on why it's unfortunate.

It's nothing major at all, but it would've been a great addition. If I feel a certain role player, who doesn't meet the criteria to be a coach, deserves to be one then it'd be nice to have that kind of option.Comment

Deeper like how?
He mentioned the differences in it from MyLeague vs in MyGM and why they gave too many customizations options in MyLeague and why MyGM doesn't has alot but not THAT much.
I can't disagree with any of their reasoningComment

Aw, why yes, "sandbox" definitely.There's that... but simply put: this is MyLeague, "my sandbox"! The more options, the better!
It's nothing major at all, but it would've been a great addition. If I feel a certain role player, who doesn't meet the criteria to be a coach, deserves to be one then it'd be nice to have that kind of option.
I was simply caught off guard with the word "force" that is all.
Forcing a player to doing certain things. Flashback to DeAndre Jordan, the Clippers and the Mavericks, Paul & Paul (Chris Paul and Paul Pierce, etc.) "locking" Jordan in a room and "forcing" him to "rejoin" the Clippers.
.... "Damn it virtual Kobe, you're never leaving the Lakers' organization, I don't care if you're retired and want to live in Paris, I'm going to keep you locked up in this room until you sign the contract to be the new Lakers head coach."
.... closes door, locks it, 24 hours later,
"Kobe, you signed the papers yet?"Comment

Great Job! Thanks for the transcription of the podcastWhat a podcast... Almost 3 hours of pure info. Might have missed something but here's what I got (almost another blog lol). Tried organizing it as best as possible.
The Good
-Per 100 poss stats are in
-For the normalize minutes option, you can normalize all stats if you don't play on 12 minute quarters
-Player and team hot streaks are mentioned in the Ticker
-In MyLeague Online, you can invite players into you league whenever you want
-You can randomize owner personalities in MyGM.
-Players and staff can give feedback on their decisions in MyGM (if they don't want to sign with you, they'll let you know why)
-VC and in-game money (I'll call it 'IGM') are separate things. IGM is accumulated through completing owner goals and can be used on things like your arena and relocation. When you buy the team, a part of the profits accrued in game is put towards your IGM.
-Owners can change goals (long term and short term) based on team situation (he will evaluate constantly during the season). As well, players can change ambitions.
-You can now override player retirements in MyLeague! In MyGM, you can convince them to not retire (example: Convincing Duncan to stay another year because you feel the roster has got a shot at a ring. Or even promising a staff possition the next year)
-Improved FA logic (won't have great players sitting in FA)
-Player turned coaches go by a system called the HOF rating. Things like win totals and rings are taken into account (hopefully this includes role players like Avery Johnson and Steve Kerr)
-Option to edit staff! this is huge! (offensive, defensive, training, and scouting attributes can be edited!)
Spoiler

-Can also edit team style in edit staff option (can choose what types of players will be targeted)
-When relocating, you don't need to keep the name of the city or team
-Owners that disapprove or are unsure of your relocation can be questioned
-Draft logic was looked at. Busts and steals have been included without crazy bad logic (assuming this means guys that are ranked low in the mock drafts won't be selected top 5 and vice versa)
-Draft prospects automation has been reworked. Beds (among others) helped out in ensuring that prospects were rated appropriately according to the new scale
-League talent balancing while simming many years was touched on (better ratio of talent among prospects)
-Accessory logic has been added to draft prospects!! (Higher probability for dual knee sleeves, and matching home/away colors etc. They've also used accessory data from the NBA to reflect on the draft classes. Unfortunately, headbands weren't confirmed or denied)
-Audio team has been working very hard, 23
The Unfortunate
-No option to 'force' a player to become a coach
-You cannot save logo/jersey designs to be imported for later
-No draft protections but it's being looked at for the future
-No preseason or D-League (takes up a lot of space and resources)
-No team/player export (very complex stuff)
-Career ending injuries will not be accompanied by a letter to the fans
Did I miss anything? Anything to add/clarify Leftos? This game is looking incredible...

Great stuff as always. I appreciate him explaining why the NBDL is not included. The same thing probably applies to the Euroleague as well. In the interim, it would be great to just have an NBDL and Euroleague "tabs". While we couldn't play the games or manage the teams, we could send guys down and just track their progress and stats. Then call them back up when we're ready. It would be cool to track a guy in the NBDL and then give him some burn in the Summer League the following year.
The Euro tab could work the same. We could see what's going on and track player stats. Maybe even see their contract info and NBA intention. So if there's a top flight draft prospect there, we could see (statistically) what they look like.Comment
