ok, imagine in future NBA LIVE games, that you play a dynasty and the rewind/365 feature is actually implemented DURING your dynasty. every game that your team doesn't participate in... the scores and stats are auto updated to reflect what happened in the actual NBA season, so that you may only influence your team and the team you are playing against at the time.
say you play with the pistons, and you beat the lakers twice... but in the real nba season the lakers won both games... that would be the only change to their overall record. the two games you won over them would be the only change to their record...
trades would happen automatically during your dynasty, on the day they happened. so long as when you are playing your dynasty you are one day behind the real NBA schedule, all the scores and stats would sim to replicate the real NBA. and if your team lost last night 120 to 85... you are going to be hard pressed to win that game... because the shooting percentages and soforth from last nights game will be used in your game when you play it.
i think this would be a sick feature. the only drawback would be possibly the seeding for the playoffs. but this would bring things as close to real life as possible, while still giving you control over your own team's destiny.
after your first season is completed... then a standard dynasty mode begins.. giving you freedom to make roster moves and play the rest of your franchise how you want.
of course this feature should be optional, from the main menu before you start your season.
if you try to play a game before it has happened, you could be prompted that this day hasnt happened yet... are you sure you want to continue?
how is that for a slice of fried gold?
