Title A Ring for a King in NBA 2K Simulation
Description A Ring for a King in NBA 2K Simulation I fear that it’s probably a little late for me, too. Maybe someday you’ll see a digitized Stein Line doing some virtual reporting in the 2K realm, but I’ve found that video-game dexterity, at least in my case, does not improve when you’re old enough to start receiving A.A.R.P. literature in the mail.nba 2k20 coins Yet I do know enough about the powerhouse franchise to understand how much its individual ratings mean to N.B.A. players. This spawned a thought bubble: Perhaps today’s go-to virtual hoops title could help us start to answer some of the questions that this season of rampant mystery, post-Golden State Warriors dynasty, will soon start posing for real. So I asked the 2K impresario Ronnie Singh if his team could simulate the 2019-20 season for our study. For balance with fans from my age bracket, I asked the same of my trusty colleagues at Strat-O-Matic, which ranked as the foremost sports simulation game in my formative years and is more managerial in nature. As N.B.A. training camps begin this weekend, here are some highlights from the two simulations: In the NBA 2K20 simulation, LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Co. romped to a 65-17 regular season, outlasted Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and the neighboring Clippers in six games in the second round of the playoffs and ultimately defeated the Nets in five games in the finals to win it all. An illustration of the Lakers’ dominance: Rajon Rondo led the league in assists during the regular season at 9.8 per game — edging New Orleans’ Lonzo Ball (9.5). The Strat-O Lakers, meanwhile, overcame a feared lack of shooting and their well-chronicled potential fit issues to stroll past the Clippers in five games in a Western Conference finals contested exclusively at the Staples Center. And that was followed by a four-game sweep of Philadelphia in the championship series. LeBron scored 51 points for the Lakers in the Game 4 Strat-O clincher to complement his 2K regular-season and finals most valuable player trophies.The Rockets’ experiment to reunite James Harden and Russell Westbrook plays out well — electronically. Houston went 65-17 in our NBA 2K20 simulation to finish narrowly behind the Lakers for the West’s regular-season title thanks to a tiebreaker. That robust record netted N.B.A. Coach of the Year honors for Mike D’Antoni — after an off-season in real life in which D’Antoni could not extract a contract extension from Rockets officials. The Strat-O simulation wasn’t quite as kind, but those Rockets posted the fourth-best record in the West at 52-30, with Harden winning the league’s scoring title at 34.2 points per game. Harden and Westbrook found a way to share enough of the ball to place third and sixth in Strat-O M.V.P. balloting. The Lakers proved to be Houston’s playoff problem in both games, defeating the Rockets in six games in the 2K conference finals and four games to one in the Strat-O second round.The Warriors are not going away.In 2K, Stephen Curry won the regular-season scoring title at a sizzling 36.3 points per game and led Klay Thompson-less Golden State to the West’s No. 7 seed at 43-39. Curry and his new backcourt sidekick D’Angelo Russell clicked to even greater effect in the Strat-O incubator, hushing skeptics (like yours truly) by leading Golden State to a 55-27 mark that placed them second in the West.The Strat-O Warriors were swept in the second round of the playoffs by the Clippers, but not before Curry (421) and Russell (297) combined to sink 718 3-pointers. Philadelphia was the East’s only 50-win team in the 2K simulation, posting a record of 54-28 and outlasting Toronto in a first-round series that went a full seven games before a stunning (and I mean S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G) second-round exit to the (still can’t believe I’m typing this) Knicks. The Sixers lived up to the loftiest of expectations in Strat-O conditions, posting 63 wins in the regular season — second in the East only to Milwaukee’s 66 — and advancing all the way to the N.B.A. finals. To do so, Philadelphia rallied from a two-games-to-none deficit against the Nets in the second round and ousted Milwaukee in five games in the Eastern Conference finals. So much for Giannis Antetokounmpo winning both M.V.P. and the Defensive Player of the Year Award in Strat-O voting. (Giannis was the D.P.O.Y. selection in 2K voting as well.)www.nbamtcoin.com
