Teams lose chemistry when they make roster moves and lose games. They gain chemistry when their core has been together for years and win games. Not sure why people turn it off? It's a pretty realistic feature that simulates a player performing worst on low chem teams and players on high chemistry teams overplaying. Think this year's Miami Heat or the 2000's-2010's Spurs as what high chemistry looks like.

I turn it off for two reasons:

- ‘Roster moves & losing = bad’ and vice versa is totally unrealistic. Real teams often trade guys away precisely because they’re poisonous to team chemistry. Also, rookie Anthony Edwards totally souring on the Wolves franchise after losing a bunch his rookie year is not realistic. Winning is valued differently based on a team’s timeline.

- The actual on-court 2K hoops is most important, so if low chemistry results in unrealistically dumb basketball by the CPU, then it’s not worth it.
