Question for those that play long(er) seasons in MyNBA

[KPH2293]

How do you do this, and do it consistently? Lol, I want to do one of the longer (58 or 82) game seasons, even if it's just with 5 minute quarters, but I struggle to even do that with a 29 game season. I just becone impatient and start over, looking for a quick path to the playoffs. I'd love to build up that patience for an actual season, but I've long struggled with it.

It's not an issue of time in life, as I have a lot of that to burn. I'm basically seeing guidance from those that play the game the way I'd like to play.

I always play 29 season games with 5 minutes game length (6 or 7 min cpu sim), I play every game, every second - mainly because of my player and team stats. Once you have played a whole season it becomes easier and more exciting to play another one - so you can also compare your season stats. This has always been a big motivation for me.
I even keep a book where I write down which players on my All Time list have certain stats (PPG, APG...). At a certain point it gets really good and I love that 2k has this season length option in the game. I would like to see that with mlb the show as well.
Just think from game to game !

Thanks for the encouragement and perspective! 🙂 What do you do for a playoff format?

About week ago, I just started a new MyNBA and simmed like 5 seasons using JB's draft classes on PS5 in order. I didn't manage anything and let the chips fall wherever. The only thing I did was the draft so I had an idea of who the new players were and where they went. I'm having a good time now playing 5 min quarters in the future NBA.

What do you mean?

I do 9 minute quarters on 58-game season and just set a certain amount of games I want to play per day - for example, 4 games per day.

Shorter quarter length is lame even at simulated stats to match quarter length...they are way over-inflated.
