Frequently asked questions

How do you play 82-0 NBA?
Each round a slot machine gives you a random franchise and era. You pick one real player from that team and era and slot him at a position he actually played. Fill all 5 roster spots, then your lineup is run through a full 82-game season simulation to see how close you get to a perfect 82-0.
How is my roster scored in 82-0?
Each player's real stats are adjusted for their era so old-timers and modern players compete fairly, then combined into categories (Scoring, Rebounding, Playmaking, Steals, and Rim Protection). A non-linear win curve turns your roster's overall strength into a season record.
Why does one weak category cap my record?
Every category has a floor. If your roster falls below the floor in even one area, that single weakness caps your record no matter how elite the rest of the lineup is. Going 82-0 means clearing every floor with a balanced, all-time roster, not just stacking one strength.
Is 82-0 NBA free to play?
Yes. It is completely free, runs in your browser, and needs no app, download, or account.
How many rerolls do I get?
You get 1 team reroll and 1 era reroll per game. Spend them when a spin gives you a franchise or era you cannot use, because once they are gone you have to draft from whatever you are dealt.
Can I share my result or play a daily challenge?
Yes. Every finished game has a shareable result, and the daily challenge gives everyone the same board each day so you can compare records with friends and climb the leaderboard.
