Although Luka and Kyrie are experienced enough to wade off pressure, the rest of the team will need to step up. We’ll see if they can make things right when both teams face off in Game 7.

In terms of accuracy, we feel the scoreboard is pretty high, but not as high as previous sims. For some reason, both teams seem to score way more points than any other teams in our simulations. Both teams do possess highly rated players. However, we’re not sure if teams are casually dropping 120-130 points per playoff game. Regardless, we’re glad to see it was a close matchup.

The only area in which we seek to improve is player injuries. We pre-record these simulations, which means we can’t account for Game-Time Decision (GTD). Furthermore, we’re limited to the 2K rosters, which does receive daily updates. However, creating custom rosters led to game crashes, as well as other technical issues. We’ll look to fix these problems when the Conference Finals arrive.
