The Lounge

Find NBA 2K27 teammates

Randoms who never pass get old. The Lounge is an LFG Discord where you ask for the players you need and get teammates who talk, pass and play defense.

How squad-finder works

Squad-finder is one channel with one job. You write what you are running and who you need. Other members reply, and you invite them in game.

Two kinds of ping keep it tidy:

  • LFG ping

    Reaches everyone who wants squad notifications. Use it when you need a few players.

  • Position pings

    Reach only the players who run that spot, such as PG. Use them when you are one short.

Mass pings beyond those go through staff, so the channel stays useful and nobody's phone gets buried.

Lock on the wing

@LFG need 2 for Rec, mic on, chill run

Pass-first point

I'm in. Got a @PG if you still need one

An example of how a post reads. Names are made up.

Write a post that fills fast

  1. Name the mode

    Rec, Park or Pro-Am. People answer faster when they know what they are joining.

  2. Say who you need

    "Need a big and a lock" beats "need 2". Add a position ping if it is one spot.

  3. Set the tone

    Mic on or off, chill run or trying to win. Matching expectations up front avoids bad lobbies.

What teammates expect from you

The same things you want from them.

  • Play team ballMove it, hit the open man, set the screen.
  • CommunicateCall switches and say when you are leaving after this game.
  • Be accountableEveryone has an off night. Own it and nobody will hold it against you.

Squad-finder questions

What is LFG in NBA 2K?

LFG means "looking for group". In The Lounge it is also a ping: tag LFG in squad-finder and everyone who has opted in to squad notifications sees your post.

Can I ask for one specific position?

Yes. Use a position ping such as PG when you only need one spot filled, so you are not pinging the whole server.

Do I need a mic?

It is not a written rule, but active communication is expected, and squads fill faster when you say you are on mic.

What if a teammate is toxic?

Tag an admin or moderator, or open a ticket. The server runs on a zero-toxicity rule and staff act on reports.

I only play casually. Is that fine?

That is who the server is for. It is a chill, casual community with players at every skill level.
