Mike Lowe's NBA 2K24 Sliders

With sliders it’s all preference but there is something to be said for earning trust through the years, and Mike Lowe is someone who has earned that from the OS community.

He’s back with some NBA 2K24 sliders, and they’re set to the Superstar level as of now. Mike always does a good job explaining everything, so I’ll just let him do the heavy lifting here.

Welcome

This set was built from 2K’s default Superstar sliders in a MyNBA setting.

What I prefer is listed below, as I like to be more of a GM than a coach. This allows me to evaluate my actual coach based on his performance. If you prefer to control more, adjust as you see fit.

Many of the sliders are at default as the game plays well and doesn’t need a massive overhaul. The changes I’ve made, however, are crucial, in my opinion.

He loves just about any good sports game but gravitates to ones that coincide with the ongoing real seasons of the NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL, and so on. As of now, he's gearing up for EA Sports College Football 25 and what should be a wild summer while still dabbling in the latest Top Spin and MLB The Show.
