'NBA 2K15' Simulator Says Lebron James' Cavaliers Headed to Finals, Follows in 'Madden' Footsteps

Last year a Madden NFL simulation correctly predicted the Super Bowl and now 2K Sports will be following in their footsteps. The 2K Sports team simulated the entire NBA playoffs using NBA 2K15 and they came out with interesting results. The Cleveland Cavaliers found themselves in the NBA Finals after beating the Hawks in six game series in the Eastern Conference championship.

The Cavaliers' fate was different when they did battle with the Golden State Warriors. The Lebron-lead team was taken down in six games. Steph Curry went on to be named the Finals MVP.

Leading up the finals the Cavs beat the Celtics and Bulls in five games.

In real-life basketball James said he is taking a different approach to the postseason. The reason for it is because the team surrounding him is younger than team's he's played with in the past. The most recent of which was the packed out Miami Heat with Dwayne Wade and dinosaur Chris Bosh.

"Going into this postseason a little different than I have in the past few years just because I have a much younger team," James said in his video series Uninterrupted. "But I look forward to the challenge. I don't look too excited right now but I am. I'm ecstatic and I can't wait to get out on that floor and get this thing going. Lead my guys out on the journey we talked about all year. That's what it's about."

This year Lebron may not have the stars he's had in the past on his side but what he is are talents in Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving, Tristan Thompson and Matthew Dellavedova.

For the season, Lebron was his usual dominant-self. He averaged 25.3 points a game and was the game's third highest scorer. Only Russell Westbrook, with 28.1 points a game, and James Harden, with 27.4 points a game, was better. Also on the list of the league's best scorer was Lebron's teammate Irving. He was 9th on the list with 21.7 points averaged per game.

On a side note here's the reason why Lebron went back to Cleveland.
