Dino's take out KD for season ending injury... Beal gets injured on player intros and is out the remainder of the game and Book... he's just there. Raptors by 5

As much as we suck, I think we are about due for a W. We seem to ping-pong back and forth, 1 win, 1-2 losses, repeat. We're due.

Does NBA2K have challenges you can do?

They should give you a franchise challenge that starts you with 3 aging, injury-prone, supermax players and control of exactly 0 of your future draft picks. 1 star if you make it back to the playoffs in 5 years, 2 stars if you do it in 3 years, 3 stars if you win a playoff round in 5 years, 4 stars if you make a conference finals in 5 years, and 5 stars if you win it all in 5 years.

It’s called the “ishbia trophy” on PlayStation and it’s a bronze. They’ll even add one additional challenge where you have deal with Isaiah throwing wrenches into your plans.

I like that…you act as GM, but at any given point, the owner will override your decision and go with the advice of Isiah over you haha
