### 3/5 — Loved the game then issues happened

*2021-01-28*

So I loved this game for about 3 days because after that the simulation stopped working so I uninstalled the game then reinstalled it but now it won’t even let me login. It was an amazing game so please fix this

### 4/5 — Cool game

*2021-01-15*

Just wish you could adjust the rotation. I have a solid team but the whole G, SG, PG thing is kinda irking me. It would if I could place them were I want in the rotation.

### 4/5 — Great game!

*2021-01-12*

The only thing missing is customizable names and players. Like a god mode. Great management games need a purchase option to get god mode. Thanks so far! Love it

### 4/5 — Good but fix trades

*2020-10-11*

I really like the game, and there’s only one problem. Please make it so that you don’t have to wait for the other teams to accept trades and it just happens that instant if they accept or decline. Thank you.

### 4/5 — It’s amazing, but...

*2020-10-02*

I love this game, with all my heart. The simple yet so authentic graphics is stellar and incredibly accurate. All the actions you can do as GM is fantastic! However, I do find some irritating things that prevent me from giving 5 stars. The loading screens are quite slow at times, and it sometimes takes too long to the point where I just forget what I was going to do when it DOES load. And how come the CPU are so stingy with trades? I can offer 2 GOOD value for a mere 80 value player and THEY DECLINE? The IQ is quite low. Also, I’m not sure if the introduction states this but, is there a way to adjust the rotation? I’m not saying minutes, as in the actual starters, bench units, reserved, etc. If so, please tell me ASAP! Again, I LOVE THOS GAME, but I think some more adjustments can improve this game and grant a 5 star review from me. Thank you for your time.

### 5/5 — Trading

*2020-10-01*

Great so far but I literally can’t trade I’m so confused

### 3/5 — Frustrating but promising

*2020-09-27*

This games is so close to being great. Slow loading and crashing kills any enjoyment of the games. Interface, logic, and overall games is better than any NBA game. But the app is to bugging to play.

### 1/5 — Cannot Use

*2020-09-25*

Once you register it does nothing when trying to login. I’d like to try it but can’t.

### 1/5 — It’s unuseable

*2020-09-23*

This app is straight trash, I can’t speak on the actual experience itself because it was impossible for me to access it. The app crashes every time you try to create a new league.

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2020-09-02*

Super addicting. I like how it progresses rather slowly. At first I felt bored, but once I figured out the small intricacies of the game it became wildly fun. With a few more updates this could be an absolute banger.
