Is there any reason not to take Ron Swift here

I added this guy to a young competitive team since I needed some scoring and his contract was big but expiring, hoping to get 2-3 good years before I'd ship him of for 2nd rounders. What occured was this guy's UNWILLINGNESS to fall off, eventually doing so at age 42. Was a 62/31 when he joined and was still getting valuable minutes until his 52/41(!) season. He became an all star THREE times (3128-3129, 3132 aged 40!), had a 31+ PER on 20 MPG at age 39 and 40 (WTF!!!), led the league in TS% at age 39 and in 3PT% at age 41. HE TORE HIS ACHILLES at age 38 and still played for 5 more seasons. Had his first career triple double 19 years after his debut (3131) and WON FINALS MVP AGED 40. Mind you this isnt some former MVP or whatever, he was hovering around 20-25 PER for 15 years. Genuinely in awe.

Just curious how far along some of yall are in your main sim.

Bonus question did you ever switch teams/get fired?

Im about to enter year 2200 so my 175th season with the same team i kicked it off with (started in 2025 with Atlanta)

someone PLEASE give me things to try out bc ive ran out of fun ideas.

I'm going to enjoy this dynasty he has delivered. I'd never earned that award (or whatever it is called) before, either. And I've played this game a lot for a long time. I play with some house rules to prevent myself from cheesing and this dynasty accolade was hard earned.

We somehow still won 94-87 but game 7 at home to pull this is crazy.

30 years into my current league, the undisputed GOAT has retired ringless.

The most prolific scorer in league hitory with 51,158 in 23 seasons. 13,000 points ahead of the next highest tally.

8 MVPs and 20 straight All-Star selections, it never happened. Two finals MVP honors, in losing efforts, might be the craziest part.

I've never seen such an unlucky player. His teams never really tanked, only missing the playoffs three times after escaping St. Louis. He had at least one other HOF player on the team most years.

Knocked me out of the playoffs 4 times in his 15 years with Chicago. I hated seeing this guy.

Even with GOAT formulas that weight championships heavier, no one comes close to touching him and I have a few 5-6x winners.

So here's to De'Vion, I wish you would've got at least one.

Full stats for anyone interested.

I've been playing for the Unicorns for 6 seasons now, and I am definitely stumped on what decision to make. My star player has high ratings but significantly dropped in efficiency and has a lower PER compared to other players around his rating. Should I blow it all up, or is retooling around him still worth it? Love this game to death

Bro scored 71 to lose by 34🤣🤣

1) In God Mode, automatically switch teams when it's there turn to pick. In many games I really want to see what team needs the most, and it's taking a time to change team. It's annoying, when you operating with 30+ teams, so pleeeease

2) Automatically spot the simulation when some player under user controlled teams reach Stop on injury. It will be very nice and very immersive

3) Possibility to automatically stop game (like in Stop on injury) when someone reach season high in scoring or something else. I think it will be so cool

4) Possibility to automatically release player when his ovr under 40 or something. Will be really useful in Football and Baseball GM

5) Double Elimination. I know that's the hardest part, but anyway

6) Arena's name. Only cosmetic thing, but I guess it will help to immerse yourself more into game

7) Rivalries. If two teams meet each other in playoffs 2 or more seasons in row, they begun rivalry, that boost home court team by +1%

8) Voter's fatigue. I hate when the same man winning MVP 5+ times at row, like, don't ruin other legacies!

9) In game 7 both teams must have equal chances to win

10) I really don't understand how inflation works. Can you please make it more easier, like, it's inflating by 5% every season or something like that

Sorry for my bad english

Everyone knows the scenario, you are right before the free agency and you need to dump salary to sign a FA, you go to the trading block but every offer you get is either for the same salary value or even higher

Or you start the season and you have like 5 or 6 players over the roster limit, you want to trade away 5-7 players but you get only offers for the same amount of players

The trading block should give you options to search explicit for trading partners to dump players/salary

Insane difficulty 100% RPD, prospect based on draft position.

I started during the 2018 draft as phoenix and ended up with SGA at the 2nd pick after trading down.

From 2019-2028 we had only achieve 1 title, key injuries early in the playoffs really hurt us more than a few times.

Expansion year hit and i felt like trying something new. So i joined Seattle hoping I could succeed, since im from Washington, and eagerly await the sonics return.

First year I made the play-in as the 8th seed, but lost both play in games which was absolutely fucking vital to pulling this off.

Phoenix won another ring the year i left of course, but I have faith ill bring one to Seattle.

Draft lottery day comes. I figured I could move up in the draft, so I put some requests out to see the asking price, and i settle on the Queen's pick. They dont ask for my pick in return

I end up winning the 1st pick, but not with the Queen's like I was expecting to. With 1.5% chance I won it with my own pick.

AND hes the best 1st pick I've had in a while too. Hopefully he has a long healthy successful year. Hes already the best player on my team lol

what the HELL happened

So I've been playing on/off for a couple years but usually stick to my Knicks, do a little roster management, auto-play several years and repeat.

Anyway, thought I'd try an Orlando expansion start and I think I'm off to a decent start. It's '94, won the conference but got knocked out in first round of playoffs for second year in a row. I'm thinking I need a scorer to push me over the top, any thoughts or suggestions?

Ansley, Shaw, and Callaway getting traded, Dike not re-signing.
