NBA 2K16 Has Summer League in MyGM & MyLEAGUE, MyLEAGUE Online, Team Relocation, More

Personally I wouldn't want to suck that bad to go to the d league in 2k. And 2nd, it was either 2k11 or 2k10 that had the d league in association and I rarely used it.

I used to use it for Association all the time. I used to draft 2nd rounders, let them play in the D-League and follow their progress. Or If I didn't have a lot of cap, I'd try and get someone who was consistently performing well in the d-league and who could fit.

There was one D-league small forward, who ended up with a Danny Green like career. I saw that he could shoot the ball and he had pretty decent defensive stats, so I signed him and he prospered, and eventually became a starter. D-league goes hand and hand with summer league.You like how a prospect performed in summer league, but don't have a roster spot for him? Send him down to the d-league and let him develop until you're ready for him. There's a D-league team that gets to compete in summer league as well.

2k was on the right track, but then they removed essential features for immerson, in favor of non sim game modes

For me its not about actually playing DL games, I just need it so I can send my low rated prospects there while still making roster room for me to sign a couple vets sitting in free agency, as of now you would have to either stick with the team having the lower prospects at the end of the bench or just release them to sign better players available in free agency.

When you add so much content, which they do, it gets to the point where you have high expectations or needs for the next year.

Summer League being brought back has been a very requested feature since they took it out. Certainly since they added story lines to MyCareer and guys started lamenting the "loss of realism" with that mode and wanting 2K to "get back to the basics" of the mode with SL and D-League integration.

Could say the same about wanting to play as a mythical player called frequency vibrations playing for the Phoenix Suns after playing for the Pawtucket Thunderbirds in college (or whatever cockamamie team name that gets generated).

At least one of two is realistic.

Sigh I guess that's how all gaming communities are. People are always begging for more. In this year's game I'd be fine if they didn't add the d league. Maybe the summer league will be somewhat like the d-league for the summer. So whatever young player you want to send to the summer league they can go and progress the entire summer while the veterans are resting.

The "loss of realism" talk is bs. People act like the core game hasn't gotten better and deeper, when it has. But those that complain rarely say a word about online team up where the thing that breaks the realism is the fact that you normally have 5 dudes running around, wanting to be the star all the time. It mass chaos perpetrated by the users. And don't come with the cheese complaints. Every game has them, they are impossible to predict, and they do try to address all of them within reason. If you don't like Park, DON'T PLAY IT. Since MyPlayer/Park is the most played mode, I guess it's doing something right. It's letting the monkeys run the zoo. Regardless, if the fantasy element of the Park is your complaint, I ask you: how could it NOT be? Real NBA players rarely do that for fear of injury. Should they just not have new modes that break the mold?

This is cool news.

I hope the relocation isn't like Madden in where you HAVE to change the team's logo and jerseys to some garbage generic one.

Would be nice if we can choose our own jerseys. For example moving to Seattle should allow us to be the Sonics. Maybe let me take the Nets back to Jersey. Take the Clippers to San Diego to be the Braves (and use their throwbacks as main jerseys).
