Yes, contraction of previously expanded teams is in the game.

The players of contracted teams are released into free agency.

Are there any specific questions you have on contraction?

Leftos, I have two questions regarding advanced rotations.

1) Do they work with SimCast and SimCast Live?

2) If you're in a blowout are your rotations to play starters at the end of the game overridden?

Awwwww man, so disappointed. Wanted a 24 team league. Now I know I'll never use the feature.

Thanks for the response, I appreciate it!

Probably tough for the NBA to agree to getting rid of existing teams. Though, you can do it in Out of the Park Baseball and that's fully licensed so who knows if that's actually the reason.

Yea which is why I was so excited to see it announced, now I see that it wasn't what I had hoped it was. All good tho.

Don't know if this has been address in this thread...but, with the only way of rebranding more than 3 teams is to use the online servers.What happens to your ML if you decided to keep playing nba2k17 for several years? Long after 2k18,2k19 and etc... has been release.What if I still enjoy 2k17 years later instead of purchasing another nba 2k game. What happens to my offline customize rebranded ML?

You need a license to cut teams out of the game? If I wanted to replicate the mid 80s in MyGM/MyLeague, I couldn't get down to 23 teams and expand from there? Wow.

They really should have explained all of this the first time. They "announced" the feature weeks ago, I'm sure I wasn't the only one who was interested in it, and they never explained what they meant. I'm a bit disappointed and wouldn't have been had they said what it meant from the get go. But it's all good, now I may actually use the expansion feature when previously I had not intended to do so because I wanted a smaller league. Now I'll just make a bigger one.
