Agreed...I tried that and came to the conclusion that our DEFENSE SUCKS and ABSOLUTELY NOBODY ON MY ROSTER CAN SHOOT and if I throw a pass longer than 2ft away I can forget about catching it lol🤣🤣

I can relate, fast breaks feel really restricting when passing abilities aren’t the best

@Schnaidt1 LET THE GAMES BEGIN!! Woke up early this morning and made a couple of trades...Trade #1 the Brooklyn Nets snag JR Smith (a shooter although inconsistent lol) and Tristan Thompson (the rim protector/rebounder that I desperately needed) from the Cavs in exchange for Demarre Carrol and Timofey Mozgov...MAJOR WIN ALERT FOR THAT TRADE LOL!!! Trade #2 the Brooklyn Nets pick up Derrick Favors (a big man that can do work down low (something my other bigs CAN'T do) and Raul Neto because he was a throw in but I think he can contribute off the bench and the Utah Jazz received Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Nik Stauskas from the Nets. Im about to mess around with my rotations, this is what im thinking for right now:
PG. Deangelo Russell
SG. JR Smith
SF. Donte Cunningham (will explain later)
PF. Derrick Favors
C. Tristan Thompson
6. Jeremy Lin
7. Jahlil Okafor
8. Allen Crabbe
9. Spencer Dinwiddie
10. Quincy Acy

Now...I decided to start Cunningham over Crabbe because I need at least 1 dependable shooter coming off the bench and Cunningham is also a better defender that can help JR SMITH on the defensive side of the ball, JR Smith and Allen Crabbe on defense at the same time is not a good look lol. My lineup may change as im interested to see how Lin and Russell can fit in together at the pg and sg positions with Smith or Crabbe at the sf. We'll see what happens! Sorry for the looooooong post! Leave me some feedback on my rough draft lineup rotations. I need all the help I can get with this team...by the way, a few of the trades I made were just 1 year deals.

EDIT: I RESTARTED BEFORE ALL THE TRADES AND SIMMED BACK TO GAME 4 OF MY SEASON WHERE I LEFT OFF...

No luck again!! Even with decent shooters and open looks we still only made 2 3pt shots...I simmed to the end in the 4th quarter because I was getting to the point of PISSED OFF...next game will be live later on today if I feel like running my blood pressure up. Game was close for the most part until 2k decided I was the Brooklyn Nets and should be getting blown out by cleveland...Here's the footage, enjoy the show and 2K !

bro... ur team chemistry is at 38%...thats why!! i wont play unless im around 60%... its huge

making trades knocks down ur team chemistry and the only way to build it up is through simming practices and either playing it simming games.

you also need to set your team. training up for team chemistry to help build it.

i cant imagine the torture u just put yourself through playing a game at 38% lol

I have my team training set up like you said...guess I'll sim until my chemistry is up but the Nets suck so bad I may have to sim to year 2032 lol

EDIT: I started taking bad shots just before I simmed the end of the 4th quarter but I had already said f**k it once I felt the "2K Effect" creeping in. My guys missed sooooooo many open shots, maybe that's why they were open...who knows...
