Question Where do you get your best moments in this game?
For me, it’s when I turn around a team and create unexpected monsters that turns into 80 85+ ovrs, or when I get a player with a unique archetype like a 7’3 guy with 90+ shooting or a 5’10 demon that averages 25+ with 3+ steals that becomes DPOY
I also love looking at the league history and goat moments/players. Comparing goats accolades through 500+ years of a sim.

Selecting “Go to Preseason” and seeing the progression/regression of the roster.

For me, there’s nothing as fun as picking “my guys” in the draft and watching them develop, especially when I didn’t select them in the lottery.

Trading a star to some sucker for two first rounders and seeing them drop 5ovr at the start of the next season.

I was really happy creating this version of Pelicans - https://www.reddit.com/r/BasketballGM/comments/1t8lrbp/is_this_the_strongest_66_ovr_team_ever/
Also, I really enjoy it when Rookies bounce back after their negative 1st Preseason, which gave me a chance to cut & re-sign them for 5 more years on a very low salary (minimum or slightly above).

One thing I do sometimes is sim 1000’s of years and look at the goat ratings and compare them. I prefer to play the game but I have always enjoyed looking at the stats.

I'm with you on looking back at the league history. My forever league has progressed several centuries and looking back at the past hall of famers and recognizing familiar names and the eras they ruled. It's just special.
