I was heated :lol: we move Kyrie now we have Smart/Cook/D.J. going ISO. Good game though, we needed more firepower to compete against Grizz but we kept it close the whole game.

You did good for an incomplete team, but I would've broke my tv watching those guys blackball Durant like that at such crucial points in the game.

Didn't watch any of this game but this seems to be the norm a lot with 2K? I mean, to have 19 games now, pretty much all incredibly lopsided and not even one decided by single digits is just strange. It seems like the fourth quarters are all very one sided and teams that lead end up blowing out the team that's down. I think for the most part BaF is pretty balanced, especially now that we've gotten into the second round. This, would be a very hard league to watch IRL!!


I think they might have overpowered home court teams. Those big momentum runs seem to be related to home court advantage

Hey guys today’s game between Philly and Chicago is supposed to be 1pm, but I’ll start it at 3pm to give Swiss and EZ time to send rotations.

Bottom line, 2K just has poor CPU gameplay all the way around.

I’ve simulated many games on 2k in my GM mode and a lot of them were close. I have no idea why these games are so lopsided

I don't know enough about 2K and don't remember all the teams that went on these huge fourth quarter runs...but home teams are only 12-8 through 20 games. It's not like they have been completely dominant so far. Maybe it's just an anomaly but to not have one real close game out of 20 seems off especially when you look at the relative balance in BaF.

Yeah cant say I've watched all the games but the couple I did see there was a pattern when the home team would catch crazy momentum in the 4th en route to a blowout. Other than that I don't know, I just do know that I'm glad we have the BAF Sim as it appears to be way more realistic.

I’ve been rigging all the games in exchange for future considerations. I’ve already got consecutive first round picks for the years 2076 through 2089. The goal is to be in a position to acquire Luka’s great grandson.
