How to unlock the Grass Is Greener achievement in NBA 2K16 - Definitive Guide

select MyGM not MyLEAUGE (i dont think it works)
choose celtics as your team
choose auto rookie option
scroll down to the last game and select sim through to date.
if the cpu trade offers come up while its simming select the option to disable it
same with making the cpu make roster changes so they dont come up again.
when scout ready for assignment comes up push cn_Y to automate it.
simulate the play offs aswell if your team makes it.
now once you get to the off season select staff signing it is second on the list
this will simulate the draft lottery.

now if you still have a head coach you will need to select him and fire him.
when hiring a coach it needs to be an assistant coach from another team.
make an offer to b.weiss assistant coach of hornets

Dr Drew 9, what I did was select 3 assistant coaches and then simmed one day. They will show as mulling the decision. Just sim until one of them signs. Then I did the same for an assistant coach and the achievement unlocked after simming. Hope that helps you...

Just to reiterate what OP said; it has to be an ASSISTANT coach - not scout or GM - from another team at the end of the year. It's easier if you do it in MyLeague while controlling all of the teams (the CPU tends to block some assistants from negotiations in MyGM).

This guide will help you unlock multiple trophies. I will list each one at the appropriate time so you can switch to that guide if needed or skip to get this.

Start a MyLeague and on the first menu option, set the following:

Season length to 14 games
Conference Quarter, semi and finals, plus NBA finals to 1 game.
Salary cap to Off
Hard cap to Off
Financial Trade Rules to Off
Trade Override to On
Quarter Length to 1 minute
Sim Quarter Length to 1 minute
Injuries to Off

Then press cn_start to advance. Press cn_T to pick every team and press cn_start until you get to the calendar. Auto-generate the rookies. At this point you are set to unlock

Scroll down the list and select any coach that has another team listed against them. Make sure to offer them the length of contract they want and at least the money they ask for (if they ask for more than you can offer, then offer the highest amount).
