I am going to take you on a journey back through time. This is a time when a new hope had been brought back to Boston. I wanted to play through Paul Pierce's career in Myleague, so I figured why not do it beginning with the 98-99 season. Danny Ainge was brought in much sooner to revamp the franchise....
1) I found this download online a good year ago or so. No idea who made it, but someone deserves the credit. If you know that person or are that person, please let me know so I can give credit where credit is due. I do want to give credit to Dee4Three on some of the player models and the portraits. I actually reinstalled 2k17 and only used his MOD to build on whoever started this mod originally. If there is anyone else's work in here, please let me know and I will add in the credits.
2) I actually started with the 97-98 season as that is what the mod originally was. However, I simmed a season so I could start with Paul Pierce. I then used the roster the Celtics had that season. The other thing I wanted to happen was not have certain players and their teams fall apart because they hated management (98 Bulls for example). So, I extended those contracts to see how long those guys would stick together and how dominant they may or may not be. I am going to let it play out naturally for the most part going forward.
3) My long-term goal is to eventually assemble the '08 Celtics as that was one of my favorite teams ever. In order to do this, I might have to part ways with some guys sooner. I did sign PJ Brown in the off-season as we need PF/C help in a serious way in order to win now. Also traded for Michael Cage to get some RB help.
4) I was able to trade 3 1st round picks, Barros, Mercer, for Ray Allen (and some toss in stuff). I can post a video if anyone wants on the trade. I was excited to be able to hang on to Walker. I can hopefully use him later if needed. He was always "video game" fun. I also traded some scraps away to Toronto so I could bring in Dee Brown.
Leave some comments and I'll see what I can come up with! Happy to make a video of the trade in myleague. I also leave the difficulty setting on 90 for that as well. Would love suggestions on if this is too high or not.
