You guys are crazy with the amount of work put in year to year. Worth the full 60 without question. That's hard to say about most games these days. Great work!

Leftos, thank you very much for coming through and answering questions. I appreciate you taking time to do so, showing your true passion for the game!

I was wondering if you started the ML early offseason option and expanded a team, how does the schedule look? do you start your expansion draft first then head into nba draft (and if so, what pick do we get to start our associations with?), so on and so forth?

Been following the development for months, I think the game looks great keep up the great work!

Leftos man I loved you since the day you made the free roster editor alternative to vlad's paid full version when he didn't put it out until december iirc. I love the dedication you put in the NBA 2K and love that we PC guys have someone who will ensure we are not left out in the open with half-assed version.

That being said are you guys looking into draft and stash option to existing euroleague teams and ability for those who didn't get drafted to enter the draft or just get signed if they are not drafted and over 24 yrs old? That would be sick. Also if you could have players' draft rights for euro guys, for example Ante Tomic of Barcelona - he is a mid 70s offensive beast (Marc Gasol lite) and I would love to be able to trade for his rights and offer him a contract so he can come to the NBA.

The expansion draft is before the NBA draft. Expansion teams get slotted in the lottery automatically after the top 3 (or N if a rule change has passed) teams are selected, and don't get any chances to jump up into the top 3. The order between multiple expansion teams is random. So if you have 2 expansion teams with no lottery rule changes, they'll be randomly slotted as 4th and 5th in the NBA draft.

No, not this year unfortunately.

if the expansion draft is before the NBA draft, does that mean we initially recreate the 2016 entry draft? when we first start the mode?

Or is it expansion draft, then next season is entry

Has the "dish to open man" tendency been fixed? All non point guard dish the open man tendency were to low in nba2k16. No one other than PG averaged over 2 assist. You had to edit basically the entire draft class dish to open man tendency.

Is there anyway to keep track of who won the dunk and three point contest this year?

The expansion team is added to the league in one offseason. They do the expansion draft and grow their roster to 13 players, then get the option to add 2 more through the draft for a total of 15, and participate in the subsequent regular season. So if you do "start from offseason" you're getting the end of finals roster and all the other adjustments we've made to starting at that point, but the expansion team participates in all the offseason stuff. It doesn't wait a year.
