 Hello and welcome to the extremely accurate and definitive simulation of One (1) season of NBA basketball as played by the teams from this year's Be Your Own GM thread. Here's a spreedsheet containing a list of each team's roster. Here are the voting results for the game. code:The games will be simulated in NBA 2k13, as it is the most actively modded 2k game. I'm using NBA 2k13's URB mod because the roster is updated frequently and the player ratings are achieved using advanced stats. If you enjoy near-obsessive amounts of attention to detail in your simulations and want to simulate the 1989 NBA season using accurate jerseys, shoes, and courts, I suggest checking it out. Anyways I will be the puppetmaster in that I'm pressing "Simulate" each time but I'm going to be totally hands off otherwise, don't shoot the messenger if your glorious group of boys fail to win a game. Because of the limitations of the mod, we're going to be simulating the 2016 NBA schedule. Sorry, but that's what the mod defaults to and players would retire before the beginning of the 2017 season, making some rosters impossible (Dirk and Jared Dudley announced their retirements on the first day of the season, so they won't be available next season.) I will be doing one week of games at a time and will post them once every other day unless something comes up and I miss a day. They'll all follow the format of the next post, unless there's a huge demand for an additional section or feature. Keep in mind that this is a ton of work already and I'm not going to be able to post every team's stats every week, but I'll try to accommodate you if you ask how a certain player or lineup is doing. Each post will contain: - That week's scores, separated by day - Players of the Week (decided by the game) - Rookie watch (the game decides what 5 rookies are playing the best and has a list of their stats) - Standings - Power rankings (decided by the game) - Injury report - All-star voting (once the results start coming in, takes a while) Rosters and Changes Lineups - I referred to the spreadsheet and/or your team pimping posts to set the starting lineups/sixth man situation, but those aren't set in stone. If your team is struggling or you just want to switch things up, let me know your changes and I'll do them Trades - As per voting in the BYOGM thread, trades will not be allowed. Free Agents - There are players in the FA pool that never went up for draft, but I'm not gonna post them and nobody's going to be allowed to sign them. Tough luck. Coaches - The game has coaches and coach grades, but there aren't enough replacement/fake coaches to replace every coach with a neutral/bad one, plus they all vary wildly in attributes as well. What I did was assign a middling fake coach to teams that have noticeably above average coaches (Spurs, Celtics, Mavericks, etc.) There's really no other way I can even the playing field, so it'll have to do. Endgame Once the regular season ends, we'll do a prediction poll for MVP, Rookie of the Year, Sixth Man of the Year etc and then match them up to the game's awards because polls are fun to do. The winner of the championship will get a nice avatar designed by me so you can show off to all of your friends Index Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Week 6 Week 7 Week 8 Week 9 Week 10 Cool Buff Man fucked around with this message at 16:10 on Aug 21, 2017 |

 OPENING WEEK of the NBA SEASON! It's a short week, only five days of games. Get ready to have so much fun  Day One  Knicks 97 - Cavs 87 Jazz 111 - Blazers 101 Spurs 107 - Warriors 104 Day Two  Mavs 89 - Pacers 93 Heat 105 - Magic 121 Nets 97 - Celtics 130 Pistons 92 - Raptors 88 Timberwolves 85 - Grizzlies 114 Hornets 120 - Bucks 106 Nuggets 107 - Pelicans 95 Thunder 83 - Sixers 113 Kings 96 - Suns 111 Rockets 95 - Lakers 116 Day Three  Wizards 114 - Hawks 87 Celtics 118 - Bulls 100 Clippers 93 - Blazers 89 Spurs 94 - Kings 103 Day Four  Cavs 69 - Raptors 105 Pacers 95 - Nets 111 Magic 111 - Pistons 120 Hornets 89 - Heat 102 Suns 107 - Thunder 118 Rockets 110 - Mavs 88 Lakers 117 - Jazz 101 Warriors 118 - Pelicans 120 Day Five  Hawks 89 - Sixers 97 Celtics 114 - Hornets 106 Magic 113 - Cavs 99 Grizzlies 133 - Knicks 98 Pacers 85 - Bulls 109 Nets 95 - Bucks 115 Pelicans 98 - Spurs 118 Blazers 106 - Nuggets 84 Timberwolves 102 - Kings 118           I think that's it! Surely my Celtics are unbeatable and they will win every single game. Clear Lakers and Celtics bias. Also, the game apparently does not think very much about the whole "surround Lebron with scrubs" strategy, but maybe that will change. Let me know if I missed anything huge and good luck to your team!

I'm all for turning on injuries for maximum chaos, honestly They'll be on for the rest of the season and I'll add an injuries section to each post

The problem with injuries is that we would be reliant on the AI to reset lineups, unless we want to make Cool Buff Man manually fix them.

There are 10 year vets who have NEVER played 80 games and that's very reflected in their stats and reputations He's the best example though. Davis KAT and Jokic went for 150+ and he went for 82 in part because lots of posters consider him unlikely to ever play a real season

Injury prone teams consider yourself lucky that you didn't die in the first week (myself included)
