Because weight doesn't matter. Ronnie is in the dark like the rest of us lol. Hope I'm wrong and we do get to recreate a Shaq like player....

How about some actually good nicknames instead? Something that someone that isn't 14 would use in real life.

So we can basically start the career earlier and continue when the game is launched?? Will this prelude be playable ??

Not sure why I hadn't pre-ordered this yet, just I'll fix that now.

That's an NCAA rule. And the NCAA itself isn't involved here.

Besides, by making every single college teammate (with the exception of those drafted that real-life year, thus being part of the NBA union) wear a jersey number with a 6, 7, 8 or 9, they can avoid accusations of "See?! SEE?! They're making real-life college players without permission! GET THE LAWYERS!"

That's what killed EA's NCAA Football series: the lawyers.

They're just avoiding potential legal trouble, that's all. I don't blame them here.

You think Jewell being listed as a cuss word is bad?

They had Todd MacCulloch's surname blacklisted too! Seriously, try it! Make sure you put the A in.

I'm curious to see how much the weight/strength attribute will play a factor this year. Will heavier and stronger guys really be able to dominate smaller players? I created a 6"10 SF this year and played C for my pro-am team. Most games, I was able to guard the big guys with no problem.
