87-88 for sure for me, have wanted to play with that in 2K for so long. 86-87 has been done in 2K so many times, 87-88 is pretty similar, but was an even better season imo, and not just cause the Mavs pushed the Lakers to 7 in the WCFs:

- Lakers and Celtics are still great, while other teams like Chicago, Utah, Dallas, Detroit, Atlanta etc. only get better to make the league more competitive
- Jordan was probably even better than the year before
- Strong rookie class to play with immediately (Scottie, Reggie, Horace Grant, KJ, Kenny Smith, Mark Jackson, Mugsy Bogues) making some teams a bit more interesting
- Great playoff series to recreate (Utah pushing LA, Dallas pushing LA, Celtics/Pistons, 7 game Finals, Bird vs Nique, Jordan vs Cleveland and the Bad Boys)

Plus the only major playing missing from 86/87 is Dr. J who could get put into the FA pool if you want to put him back on the 76ers
Done and done. Starting on it tonight.
