I personally think if you add another expansion team after this season, you should make the picks for them so that they also don't get a stupidly unrealistic draft. I've seen some expansion drafts where lebron is unprotected
I love that idea! I’m actually thinking of adding a team and letting you guys PICK the team we add and then live streaming the draft so you guys can choose the players as well! 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
I say you give all the young guys the most minutes and let them develop themselves this first season even if it means losing games because it will pay off in the long run
Love this idea! Is there anything in the lineup in particular you think we should change? Anything you suggest I’ll absolutely put into action, within reason of course 😅👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Can you adjust Durens playmaking tendencies, hes a pretty underrated playmaker. Could definitely see him being a 3-5 assist big man. A frontcourt of him and Johnson could let you do a lot of interesting things from a playmaking perspective, especially as you drafted more score first guards
I think he should give duren back to the pistons because honestly it's unrealistic that the pistons didn't protect him. Maybe swap him for wiseman or bagley
I personally think he should keep duren but on piston they have 3 young center with duren being there, instead of him coming off the bench, he becoming a starter on the badgers.
#addplayer Nick Baker 6'3 skinny shooting guard White guy with a brown afro and clean shaven facial hair, skinny face and a leg sleeve tattoo on his left leg Nick always loved basketball but was always really skinny and could never put on muscle, so he's had to learn to do everything he can do without muscle in the game of basketball. He's a great shooter from the midrange and a good shooter from three and free throws. He's also a good passer and a solid enough perimeter defender. He uses his long arms to get occasional blocks, but really can't guard the paint other than that, and struggles to rebound because of his lack of muscle. He's an average at best finisher inside, and while he has a good vertical jump, his speed and quickness are average for a guard and his strength is essentially non existent. It was clear that he had great skill, but he never could get his college career started due to injuries. Being a 2021 high school graduate, he was talented enough to be in the nba by now but he just couldn't stay healthy as every part of his legs kept getting injured. The 2023 ncaa season where he plays at Florida state is his first chance to really show that he belongs in the nba, assuming he can stay healthy. May have went overboard on this one but i think it's cool 😹
Glad to see the Badgers back in action! Giving all the young guys valuable playing time could really help us in the long run. As a Mavs fan, I’m really surprised the Mavs didn’t bother protecting Hardy, as in previous simulations I’ve done he turns into a very good scorer (17-18 ppg a night!), so kinda baffles me that the Mavs did my guy dirty. Anyways, looking forward to the season debut! #BadgerNationIsBack 🦡
#addplayer Brian Blackburn , 7’1 big man,with a lot of tattoos. can’t really shoot much but a great rebounder with a lot of strength , pick and roll is his biggest strength. Bit of an old school big, but can still provide great interior defense and offense in the paint.
Once I saw Bradley Beal, I immediately stopped the whole expansion franchise. I go for a two-team expansion league for the first season, so if they get someone like Bradley Beal or Klay, I don't even want to think how terrible or good they'll be because I'll always pick who I want to pick, but then again, the 95 draft was something to look at.
I agree man I’d love to see MLB and Madden both add this! Or at least the customization tools that 2K gives. Being able to make all the logos and designs in Photoshop and Illustrator and import them in makes it much more unique. Also, no worries on being late buddy welcome 😁👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

on 2k23, if you added 4 expansion team designs then ''enable online shares'' will pop up, its only certain designs that works, on 2k23 it was some seattle team, once you add 4 of them, you can then add whatever you want and remove the previous ones
Awesome! So if I add 4 I can make my edits then just remove the other 2 after? Is that what you mean? Sorry if I’m misunderstanding 😅👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻 thank you so much for this
@@CodenameSteev yea, it worked on 2k23 atleast not sure about 24 haha, its just a really weird glitch, you just gotta find a team that you can add (only some work), and add the same multiple expansions until ''enable online saves'' pops up, enable it and then from there you can pick whatever team you like, and remove the rest
I just found yours! Sebastian Wynne.. SF/PF out of Belgium.. You’ve waited WAYYYY too long so I’m gonna make yours first. You’ll see your name added to EP 2 as part of the first wave and then you’ll see your actual player design in EP 3 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

College USC Paul had hoop dreams but had to undergo reconstructive hip surgery after an unsuspected growth spurt that put his senior HS season to an end. After recovering and being bed ridden for 6months and limited overall activity for a year, he took a liking to Star Wars, specifically the character Darth Vader. He saw similarities as how Anakin once fast and nimble became Darth Vader, hindered by his injuries, transformed into a physical and spiritual force. Paul hit the gym and court day after day honing his craft covering his offensive weakness becoming a defensive menace. He takes defense personally as he feels as he was robbed of his scoring ability, now he wants others to suffer under his defensive might. He wears no accessories and always buys Charles Barkleys shoe. He doesn't care about anything but dominating.
