The Good -Per 100 poss stats are in -For the normalize minutes option, you can normalize all stats if you don't play on 12 minute quarters -Player and team hot streaks are mentioned in the Ticker -In MyLeague Online, you can invite players into you league whenever you want -You can randomize owner personalities in MyGM. -Players and staff can give feedback on their decisions in MyGM (if they don't want to sign with you, they'll let you know why) -VC and in-game money (I'll call it 'IGM') are separate things. IGM is accumulated through completing owner goals and can be used on things like your arena and relocation. When you buy the team, a part of the profits accrued in game is put towards your IGM. -Owners can change goals (long term and short term) based on team situation (he will evaluate constantly during the season). As well, players can change ambitions. -You can now override player retirements in MyLeague! In MyGM, you can convince them to not retire (example: Convincing Duncan to stay another year because you feel the roster has got a shot at a ring. Or even promising a staff possition the next year) -Improved FA logic (won't have great players sitting in FA) -Player turned coaches go by a system called the HOF rating. Things like win totals and rings are taken into account (hopefully this includes role players like Avery Johnson and Steve Kerr) -Option to edit staff! this is huge! (offensive, defensive, training, and scouting attributes can be edited!) Spoiler -Can also edit team style in edit staff option (can choose what types of players will be targeted) -When relocating, you don't need to keep the name of the city or team -Owners that disapprove or are unsure of your relocation can be questioned -Draft logic was looked at. Busts and steals have been included without crazy bad logic (assuming this means guys that are ranked low in the mock drafts won't be selected top 5 and vice versa) -Draft prospects automation has been reworked. Beds (among others) helped out in ensuring that prospects were rated appropriately according to the new scale -League talent balancing while simming many years was touched on (better ratio of talent among prospects) -Accessory logic has been added to draft prospects!! (Higher probability for dual knee sleeves, and matching home/away colors etc. They've also used accessory data from the NBA to reflect on the draft classes. Unfortunately, headbands weren't confirmed or denied) -Audio team has been working very hard, 23 The Unfortunate -No option to 'force' a player to become a coach -You cannot save logo/jersey designs to be imported for later -No draft protections but it's being looked at for the future -No preseason or D-League (takes up a lot of space and resources) -No team/player export (very complex stuff) -Career ending injuries will not be accompanied by a letter to the fans Did I miss anything? Anything to add/clarify Leftos? This game is looking incredible...

Great Job! Thanks for the transcription of the podcast

Thank you!

Great stuff as always. I appreciate him explaining why the NBDL is not included. The same thing probably applies to the Euroleague as well. In the interim, it would be great to just have an NBDL and Euroleague "tabs". While we couldn't play the games or manage the teams, we could send guys down and just track their progress and stats. Then call them back up when we're ready. It would be cool to track a guy in the NBDL and then give him some burn in the Summer League the following year.

The Euro tab could work the same. We could see what's going on and track player stats. Maybe even see their contract info and NBA intention. So if there's a top flight draft prospect there, we could see (statistically) what they look like.

Here's my question: Which mode am I playing? Haven't bought a hoops game since 2009. Is it MyGM or MyLEAGUE? I like the Franchise Mode that gives me all of the options but I want to play games as well. I also created players and have them as well on my team. It seems like both modes copy each other, Is it MyGM that gives it all?

My League gives you control over everything, you can choose to override trades for teams, set salary cap or even turn it off, edit any player you want at any time, etc.

MyGM is where you act as the GM of a single team and try to build that team. In MyGM you also have to keep the owner of the team you are working for happy and meet that owner's goals and expectations. And at the same time, make sure the team is profitable.

Based on this info MYleague will be my mode of choice, Mygm is very impressive but being able to control all things is just too much to pass up.
