You guys are crazy! It will most certainly not take 1000's of hours to unlock all the players... It took me 65 hours in the first NBA Playgrounds to unlock them all, and that was just using tournament and exhibition mode. So far, I've just reached 60 hours in Playgrounds 2, and I only need 20 more players. Which means 20 more seasons to play. It only takes about an hour to complete a season, since the games are only 3 minutes. I find this game more enjoyable with a little more to do. Leveling up players to diamond while grinding seasons and exhibition games is like killing two birds with one stone. It's also pretty easy to rack up 1400-1600 Baller Bucks per 99 point game, which takes like 12 minutes. Or, 250 Baller Bucks per 70 seconds doing the 3 point contest. You all may say this game is way too grindy, and trash it because it has OPTIONAL micro-transactions, but I would rather not spend a dime and unlock everything myself. I think it adds depth to the game and something to do besides just playing online. The only gripe I have is I wish they would hurry up and add the rest of the players
