The computer AI undervalues #1 picks for "contending" teams

The CPU will trade away a potential GOAT just for a couple years of decent value if a "contending" team happens to win the first pick.

This player gave me an idea for a new frivolty category: Oldest Rookie

I'm guessing has been one older than 25, but this is the oldest I've seen!

Most epic name

"Ulysses Bible"
Apparently the names come from football coach Dana Bible and college basketball player Ulysses Garcia.

Small market problems

Your team is too expensive, so you trade the up-comers to save your job, but then your MVP leaves with 83% chance of re-signing because of -1 from "fear of being traded" 😭

Forced OT with 0.2 seconds left in Game 7 on a full-court outlet pass!

Screenshot got cut off, but Stefanovic's lay-up was good! :D

Problem with rating progression

It occurs to me that the randomized players in the game never end up like Shaq, Dwight Howard, or Rudy Gobert -- all-time greats but no ability to shoot 3s. The randomization should take into account that some 7-footers just have too large hands to ever even consider shooting 3s!
It seems that progression algorithm makes it so all great players become at least average 3-point shooters, but that doesn't reflect reality!

So annoying 😂

Lost in the Finals four straight years to this guy, so finally decided NOT to trade at the deadline. Then of course he gets injured in the Finals to the team that ousted me in the playoffs 😂

You're the title favorite, but your MVP candidate has made it clear he is leaving for a bigger market 😭
