This has soured me on getting NBA 2K again anytime soon, despite how much fun I had playing NBA 2K16. However, I'll keep trying out other sports games, telling stories, and tracking what I do. Best of luck, and I look forward to reading some of your stories. If you have any questions on my formatting, videos, etc, let me know. Au revoir! Zo knows who's #1 Check out the table-of-contents for a collection of my favorite moments and big stories. The games against LeBron and the Wizards are especially worth checking out, like this one for example. Insane ending.

Heartbreaking man. I can totally understand why you're done with 2K ... frankly, this is the future of all 2K dynasties it seems.

This was a wonderful read and a fantastic story -- it will be missed. May you find yourself another dynasty somewhere in the future.

Bravo sir.

Thanks man. Creative storytelling isn't my strong suit, but porting my CHoops players gave me an easy hook, passion, and backstory. It was so much fun to do, and you definitely inspired me to do this.

I started a new career/dynasty in Football Manager 2018, and we'll see if this one ends up being as fun, but I love Football Manager.

I don't know how many of you find soccer interesting, but I'm starting to get into a flow for my new dynasty there, about Kenji Lindgren and his endeavor to improve USA Soccer and the Seattle Sounders.

I won't advertise it a bunch, just wanted to share it here. Thanks again to everyone who read this.

Slight apologies for bumping an old post - though if I really was embarrassed I wouldn't do it - but I found myself enjoying some of the key moments from this dynasty yesterday. The college background, the wild comeback against LeBron and the Wizards, and the crazy draft day and free agency that ended up with Giannis on the Hornets (back when he was just OK, not great). It was a fun ride.

This was what inspired much of how I am approaching the Bulgarian brothers: I had so much fun connecting the 2K and CHoops universes.

Plus this dynasty is the only time in my twenty two years of living, I've been able to see my beloved hometown team do anything noteworthy

Perhaps Jerry Sparks and De'Aaron Fox can do something in the Bulgarion Bros world...or maybe Oggy gets the job there in a few years
