Threes falling, finally! But you can't let your opponent shoot 60%.

I was especially happy KAT found his form from deep. But yeah, the Lakers killed me with their shooting. They ran a metric fuckton of like 5 wing lineups and LeBron and Lonzo did the ballhandling so I couldn't even punish them for it. Trying to guard 4 wings who can shoot (and Lonzo) with my 3 guard lineups was killing me. There were times where I had 4 players shorter than their shortest player. I might need to look for a big PG myself to help deal with teams that have bigger guards.
Bron gonna Bron. He just took it to another level in that second half. And I "get" to play the Lakeshow again in like 4 games here, this time in LA. Uh oh
Lol I've really enjoyed using Rose. He really sets the tempo and scoring for the bench - I may need to look into increasing his minutes. But he got exposed defensively against the Lakers, as was Dario - there's a reason their +/- stats were garbage. Granted nobody defended well, but I was physically outmatched by the Lakers in that game
I hate that 2K always has him complain about his role with the Pups (I may or may not have done several sims with the Wolves, lol). He literally had an interview where he said his goal is 6MOTY. How the fuck does that mean "I need to be a starter" in 2K? Smdh
I like having those sorts of complaints though, usually it helps with realism. Just sucks to have a case where he's documented to not have a problem

Yup. It’ll probably bite me in the ass, but as stupid as it is I love having to deal with all of the “extra” stuff. Makes the game feel more alive. And I like that the game generates extra goals for you.
If I could get a myGM mode with the flexibility of myLeague, I’d be so happy.
As soon as I saw that pic, I knew I had to include it in the chise lmao
To be fair, LeBron was quiet in the first half. Then he decided to actually try. Was something to see, even if it sucked to be on the receiving end
There's a reason he dated Kate Upton

Encouraging signs from Dieng despite the big loss, positive thoughts.
