I did this a long time ago with...*checks to see which game had Durant on the cover*...NBA 2K15. Being the first time I played an NBA 2K game using the front office modes, I was unaware about how you could not test out things like trading and drafting to get a feel for it and that the game autosaved. Needless to say, accidentally trading Draymond Green for three 1sts set me back, and it took me 10 seasons to finally claim the NBA championship. Now I'm going for it again with 2K19!

I erroneously said I was going to do MyGM mode in the poll topic. Well, to be more accurate, I should say that I did attempt to, but switched to MyLeague. For some reason, I thought that I did MyGM the first time, but that clearly was not it because when I was overwhelmed and confused by the 15 different menu tabs and having to do crap like pick out game day promotions and have conversations with my players/coaches/owners like I was supposed to have all the knowledge and power in the world. I switched to MyLeague, and this looked right with reduced menus and the general flow of things.

Anyway, back to the point. My goal here is to win an NBA championship. MyLeague apparently runs for 80 seasons. I sincerely hope that it takes me but a small fraction of that to meet my goal. As always, I am taking the Mavericks and also doing a fantasy draft. In MyGM, I could return all current draft picks back to their original teams, but that didn't appear to be an option for this even with the fantasy draft, so I guess my 1st round pick via the real life Doncic for Young trade is with Atlanta regardless of the fantasy draft results. If anyone who is also involved in B8NFLL and/or paid attention to my 2K15 topic know, I am definitely not a fan of the potential rating and its effect on player development. That did force me to have to do everything in my power to trade up into the lottery or higher within it in 2K15, which did eventually pay off. Without that first round pick though, I had to make sure to do well in this initial draft. My 2K15 draft yielded what should have been a Butler/Rubio/Green/Valanciunas core, though Butler did end up being on my championship team and Rubio was there for all but the final season.

A few other changes that I also made were the playoff structure being 5/5/7/7 game series since it has no business being 7 games in every round. I am also a vocal opposer to the soft salary cap, so I switched it to a hard cap. Not knowing what the figure should be, I set it at $225 mil, up from $200 mil I think. I set draft combine and pre-draft workouts to auto, and everything else was kept the same.
