I'm a programmer as well, doing my Master's in Computer Science and I can't seem to figure out what it could be. I have a feeling that it might be something with my roster? I didn't expect sliders to have such an impact, even resetting sliders to default won't allow me to progress so maybe the damage is done? I do remember in the first franchise that Kendall Marshall was glitched on the 76ers and anytime I pressed on him in rotations, the game crashed. He should be a free agent now though. Kendall Marshall wasn't glitched in the second franchise.
