Some days just get sucked into a vortex. When I get into something, I get into it hardcore. For example, if I find a really good show, I'll marathon it for a week straight if I have to. This is usually a good thing if what I'm addicted to is something productive, but if not, then I'll abandon every task aside from basic living necessities such as eating and sleeping.
If I were to sum up the last three days in one phrase, it would simply be: NBA 2K14. The first two days, it was MyGM mode, and for the third day, it was MyCareer. I now have three active MyCareer players and two MyGM franchises. I'm running both the Lakers and the Knicks.
Out of 6 years as the Knicks GM, I got 3 championships. Not bad. The secret? Get LeBron on your team. I was somehow able to get both Carmelo and LeBron, and despite getting a playoff berth every year, I always manage to get a lotto pick. With my tenacious scouting, I get a draft steal every time.
My success is based on exploiting the game's broken mechanics and logic. It seems every team is content to trade as long as the value and salaries match. I wished the game actually put team needs into account. And the VC implementation pisses me off. It puts a damper on everything.
I'll have more to say about this game next time around. I'm too busy playing.
