With 2K18 dropping in a week, the grind will begin once again for most MyTeam players. I won't be joining you. 2K17 is the first time I played MyTeam...and man did I play some MyTeam. Over 450 games, countless hours sniping, and*more money spent than I care to admit. In the end, I got PD Duncan...and I'm totally burnt out. I can't imagine starting the whole process over, especially knowing what I know now about the mode.

Every two weeks is a shameless money grab with increasingly unrealistic and juiced up cards to get us excited (Jimmer w/HOF badges ring a bell?). They play on our worst impulses, and I absolutely gave into it. I don't really regret it because of all the hours of entertainment I got out of the game, but it's not worth it to me to start from scratch and do it again.*I had a lot of fun, but it's not worth the stress, time and money I know it will take to get PD Shaq, which is ultimately where my goal-driven, competition-obsessed mind would drive me. With what appears to be significant gameplay improvements and the addition of all-time teams, I'm going to do offline franchises and play PNO when I need to get my user v user fix. I want to give a big shout out to everyone who has given helpful advice over the last year. I really enjoy the 2K community.

With all that said, I'm going to do a little bit of good for the people still grinding 2K17. On Wednesday I'm going to sell my Cavs all-time squad, and I'm going to give away that MT for the price of FREE. I estimate I'll net 500-600K from selling my team. To claim some (or all) of that, here's what you need to do. Post a player from the Cavaliers '17 collection (the one with Sapphire LeBron, Emerald Kyrie, etc) so that it's available Thursday (9/14) at 8AM EST. Make sure you put it up for*a starting bid of 23,600 MT with no BIN. At that time, I'll search for those cards and drop all my MT. I might put all 500K+ on one card, or I might spread it out between a handful. Just kind of depends how I'm feeling. I figure this way I can be fairly sure someone from here or 2KMT Central (where I also post) will get that MT instead of selling all the cards for 500MT for some random sniper to profit from. Good luck!

I'm on PS4, btw
