Hello everyone!

This thread is for those interested in:
1) Downloading fictional classes to mesh with Bedwards roster
2) Contributing fictional classes to mesh with the roster
3) Reading up on scouting reports for these fictional players and posting updates on how the rookies are playing in your unique associations


For anyone interested in making a draft class, to ensure it matches up with Bedwards roster, please read his blog post here:
http://bedwardsroy19.blogspot.com/20...very-edit.html

In addition to the blog post, please read these suggested corrections as well:

Spoiler

- Make sure on the VITALS screen that a player's play types make sense for him. For example, if a player is a 3PT shooting ace with poor ball handling, his only play types should be 3PT and maybe MID RANGE. If you see ISOLATION, CUTTER, LOW POST, etc remove them.
- Remember that VERY FEW rookies should have the ISOLATION play type...only give these out to a small handfull of players
- Pay very close attention to the TOUCHES tendency. Remember that Bedwards' roster goes off the player's usage rate (1-30). Most rookies should have TOUCHES between 10-22. If you forget to edit this, your simulation stats will be completely out of whack.
- Pay very close attention to the POTENTIAL rating. Remember to follow this formula:
-->80 POT+ = future all-star
-->75-80 POT = future starter/possible all-star
-->69-74 POT = future role player/starter
-->64-68 POT = future role player (depending on starting OVL)
-->below 64 POT = probable bust
- Be EXTREMELY selective about who you give a POTENTIAL rating of 75 or higher to. These guys WILL usually end up 80 OVL or higher before they retire.

To get your draft class on this page, shoot me a PM with your PSN user name, I'll take a quick look at the class to make sure it's good to go, and then upon approval, I'll throw it up here on this page for everyone to check out. If you'd like to add a scouting report for your players, feel free to post it here as well...if not, no big deal - it's just something that adds to the experience. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or are unsure about anything!

NOTE: To download a class, go to Features --> 2Kshare --> Download --> Scroll over to Draft Class --> Tap triangle, search for PSN name --> Download the file

Feel free to post any stories/stats/updates regarding your experience with these rookies. Also, if you have any suggestions for improvement, we're all ears. My intention is to simply provide the very best draft classes we are all capable of by making them as fun as possible. I just ask that you please be constructive in your criticism - the members that have uploaded classes and scouting reports/notes have spent a lot of time on this. Thank you.

Benji Washington - Wake Forest - SG/SF 6'9 225lbs 19 years old Future franchise player. Complete package, but needs improvement in outside shooting and rebounding. James Thomas - Duke - C/PF 6'11 210lbs 20 years old Strong inside presence, good rebounder, motor, hands. Mediocre defender. Should have good career. Brandon King - Kentucky - C 6'8 215lbs 19 years old Inside presence, good passer for a big, elite post D, great rebounder. Low IQ, poor handles. Good upside. Oscar Paul - North Texas - SF 6'8 220lbs 20 years old Good defender and rebounder, excellent finisher. Can't create own shot off dribble, no low post presence, poor passer. Antonio De La Cruz - Spain - PF/C 6'11 235lbs 19 years old Excellent inside game, solid rebounder. Avg defender at best, not very athletic. Julian Perry - Arizona - PG/SG 6'6 200lbs 19 years old Good offensive player, good passer with quicks. High IQ but poor on ball D and poor rebounder for 6'6" Jacob Reese - North Carolina - PF/SF 6'8 206lbs 21 years old Good rebounder, high motor, good hands. No post game yet Abe N'Diaye - Purdue - C 7'2 260lbs 19 years old Big body. High IQ for a young big, elite rebounder. Not very athletic or a good defender. Fairly one dimesional, no real offensive game outside of close range. Andre Hansen - Kansas - SF 6'7 239lbs 19 years old Good rebounder for position, all out hustle player. Poor decision maker, mediocre defender. Freddy Williams - Georgetown - SF 6'9 200lbs 19 years old Good outside shooter, can create his own shot. Avg defender, and low IQ. Damien Tucker - Colorado - SF/PF 6'7 210lbs 21 years old Strong rebounder for SF, plays above weight. Stephon Johnson - Iowa - SG/SF 6'3 190lbs 21 years old Good shooter. Excellent FT shooter - only needs to attack to get to the line. Dale Spencer - Connecticut - PF/C 6'11 235lbs 22 years old Good rebounder, can shoot the mid range well. No outside shot. Game may not translate well at NBA level. Isaac Patterson - Texas- PG 6'1 170lbs 19 years old High Iq, Good Handles. Possibly the top PG prospect. Michael Robinson - Florida State - SG/SF 6'5 200lbs 23 years old Good on-ball D, good outside shot Mitchell O'Neal - UNLV - PF/C 6'10 2310lbs 22 years old Good rebounder, avg at most other things. May not develop an area of expertise outside of rebounding. Could just be a jack-of all trades guy. Terrell Morris - Kentucky - SF/PF 6'9 195lbs 19 years old Good outside game, poor post D Julio D'Angelo - Italy - C 7'0 235lbs 21 years old Elite post D, Poor handles Jamaal Parker - Penn State - SG/SF 6'5 195lbs 21 years old High IQ, athletic. Avg offensive game. High upside, given time will excell. Derrick Carroll - Memphis - SF/PF 6'7 242lbs 19 years old High IQ, athletic. Avg defensive game Orlando Henderson - Missouri - PG/SG 6'5 175lbs 19 years old Elite Handles, good per D. Poor offensively but will blossom into a nice player given a chance. Could possibly fall into 2nd Rnd but will be an investment for future Lewis Irving - Princeton - C 7'0 240lbs 19 years old Elite rebounder, limited offensively. Will struggle with NBA adjustment. Gerald Barkley - North Carolina - PG 6'5 185lbs 21 years old ELite handles, limited offensively Maurice Chavez - Mexico - C 7'1 220lbs 20 years old Good rebounder - given a few years could pan out better or as good as Top 5 pick De La Cruz J'Anthony Lawson - Michigan - PG 6'0 180lbs 20 years old Elite handles, high BBIQ, good outside shot. COuld be a handy late first round pick that can contribute instantly Leroy Taylor - Oregon - SF 6'7 230lbs 20 years old Solid per-D, athletic Yuri Popov - Russia - SF 6'8 223lbs 19 years old Average offense, good IQ + handles. Project player, has a Kirilenko-lite vibe. Jared Anthony - North Carolina - PG/SG 6'0 171lbs 21 years old deadye shooter, high IQ and handles Garrett Brown - Syracuse - SG/SF 6'5 175lbs 21 years old Good shooter and perimeter defender Wesley Duncan - Kentucky- PG 6'2 175lbs 21 years old Good handles + athleticism Second round picks worth a look: Hakeem Fall - Nigeria - C 7'2 227 23 years old Big body that could stand to put on weight. Elite rebounder and shotblocker Ante Rodic - Croatia - SG 6'5 195lbs 19 years old Excellent shooter, high potential. Limitied at this point but will be one of the better international prospects Will Chambers - Mississippi - PF/C 6'10 270lbs 21 years old Built like a boulder. Good rebounder and given time will develop Kevin Wallace - Houston - SF 6'7 245lbs 22 years old Good rebounder...Will develop overall game Nikola Horvat - Croatia - PF 6'9 242lbs 19 years old Stretch 4, Dirk-like skillset. Steve Gilbert - Colorado - SF/PF 6'10 225lbs 20 years old Excellent Shooter, great size, poor defender Idris Demir - Turkey - C 7'0 240lbs 21 years old Strong rebounder and post Defender

I'm so bummed mine corrupted. I really liked the class I had! I haven't even started to make another one and don't know if I will out of fear that it will mess up again.

[Jujuwebe]

Awesome! I can't wait to see what people come up with!

Do you guys make your classes from 2k8, or do you just come up with them from your head? When I get 2k13 I'm going to make classes from my 2k8 legacy.

From our own creative instincts, my friend...2k8 seems like a cool idea though.

Yeah I know that's gotta be extremely frustrating...I've already put a ton of time into my 1st class...I'd definitely be let down. Let me know if you need any help making a new one.
