    You can't take one trade that's an incredible outlier from a below average front office that's made a lot of questionable moves over the last few years and make it the precedent for the entirety of the NBA.. There are some weird trades in real life, but I don't think you'd see any of the ones that occurred on this post in real life. I mean it is just a game and all, but there's a point where you're just abusing the CPU.

      The 2k trade logic doesn't let you make the trade that the King's made. So it's actually tougher than real life.

        You've left me speechless.. I'm sure GarPax are examining this post right now and doing all they can to implement this plan next season because, as you said, 2K is more difficult to trade on and is the absolute authority on the NBA and trades. Screw what NBA GM's and people who have there career centered around the NBA think, 2K is where it's at. You're right. Sorry to question you or the 2K gods.

          Point being... if I had posted that Sacramento trade 2 weeks ago on here people would be slating me for it.

          Also... let's remember the whole point of a video game is to have fun. There's no right way to play it.

            the end roster looks like a "realistic" everyday roster.

            Looks like he had fun building the roster.

            I personally tend to raise the trade logic to 90. making very impossible to make trades. I also govern all trades made by the cpu to cpu, just to keep things balance.

            I also implement a player point rating system to keep my team from becoming a super team right of the bat. I cap my team at a total player rating of 900, and I increase the points yearly based on the difference between wins and losses after a season. so if I go 50-32, Ill raise my my player cap total by 20. (I only play 29 game season with this method)

            using this method plus a solid cap number, building a scrubby team takes some time

              It took me 5 years, but I was able to win the Finals with the Bucks. Giannis and Parker were both injured this year, leading me to the #1 overall pick, I needed a PG, so I grabbed Lonzo Ball.

              Ball was injured during his rookie season, which led me to having the #3 pick. This Detroit offered Andre Drummond and a 2nd round pick.

              A middle of the road season, I drafted a SG at the end of the lottery.

              Year 4 I traded Middleton and Henson for a top 5 protected 1st rounder. At the deadline, in position for a decent playoff berth, I was offered Porzingis for Parker and a future 1st(top 3 protected). Lost in the conference finals.

              Went 67-15 the next season with Ball, cant remember the SG, Giannis, Prozingis and Drummond. Thon Maker won 6th man, and my new head coach, Paul Pierce, won coach of the year. Fell behind 3-2 after leading 2-0 against the Kings, then won the final 2, overcoming a 7 point deficit at home with 3 minutes left.

              Ball was MVP, but missed game 7, Spencer Dinwiddie came off the bench to provide a surprising spark in a very difficult spot start.

              Not the most realistic, but definitely was irritating losing during the beginning, then turning it around.

              NBA- Milwaukee Bucks
              NCAA- Wisconsin Badgers

                So, basically you did a fantasy draft, while the other 29 teams rolled with what they had.

                  You know, it's entirely possible his idea of fun in MyGM is completely different than you and me.

                  This was fun for him and that's all that matters.

                    The IRL Crowd is like the Just Bleed Crown in MMA....let people play the game as they like, exploits and all. I remember doing Madden Franchis on PS1 and trying to get David Boston and Andy Katzenmoyer, the 2 stud rooks, on the same team -- it was fun, like finding a warp zone in Super Mario...

                    The most interesting article that's still left unwritten would deal with pros and cons of starting Franchise in offseason vs. beginning of year -- the rating are DRASTICALLY different depending on which start point you choose.
