Metallicarl's All Time Basketball Dream Season

[metallicarl]

OK, finally have this file done!!!! I have attached the file, I am not sure of all the steps to transfer this to your PC....I have only done it with NCAA football. Please do not ask me the steps, there are threads in this forum on how to do it. Please feel free to give me feedback..since there are so many teams, some are researched more than others. If you are a fan of one of the schools you may know more about how each player looked and played. Post any edits for gear, appearance, and ratings. I did a ton of research on stats, gear, and appearance but some of the smaller or older schools dont have many photos. If you feel a players ratings are off, give me detailed changes( dont just say a players overall is high/low, say his ball handling or defensive rating is off) Hope everyone enjoys this as much as I am!!!

[metallicarl]

As of now, I have around 100 teams rated and have been playing a game every day to see how they are playing out. I have been really impressed and it is so cool to see the teams of my youth brought back to life. I will attempt to update a list of teams that will be included.

Unfortunately I don't have a PS3 to try these on, but I'm wondering if you could post the overall ratings for 1977 UNCC. Thanks.

I'm not sure I rate players the same as default so I dont know how these work with other teams that havent been rerated. I made a few formulas off of actual per minute player stats, but here's UNCC's roster

#33 F/C Cedric Maxwell 6-8/205 SR NC (82)
#23 SF Lew Massey 6-5 JR NC (74)
#21 SG Chad Kinch 6-4 FR NJ (76)
#25 PF Kevin King 6-7 SOPH NJ (74)
#32 PG Melvin Watkins 6-3 SR NC (73)
#12 G Jeff Gruber 6-0 JR NC (68)
#31 PF Phil Scott 6-6 FR MD (72)
#44 F Mike Hester 6-7 FR NC (69)
#22 G Todd Crowley 6-4 NC (66)
#43 F/C Ken Angel 6-8 SR KY (69)
#10 PG Jerry Winston 5-9 SOPH NJ (66)
#24 G Lee Whitfield 6-1 FR NC (67)
#42 G/F Henry Caldwell 6-2 SR SC (66)
#35 C Greg Spain 6-8 JR MD (66)

Would it be work for both 09 and 10...I own only PS3 NCAA 10
And I'm very interested in your wonderful project, I don't know all the teams perfectly but they seem to be good choices...all my youth too! (play with the flashy Ernie di Gregorio, Providence'73 would be great)
Is there any limitation to create players in the game? and do you use BASKETBALLREFERENCE to get information about the teams?
Deeply with your work, greetings from France

These rosters are for NCAA 10 on PS3, I put 09-10 because thats the way the seasons are listed. The only limitations are the players year(freshman, sophomore, etc) cant be changed but I have tried to get it as close as possible by editing players with the same year(editing seniors into other seniors). That Providence team should be fun with Ernie D, Marvin Barnes, and company....I try to use as many references as I can, sports-reference.com is great and I have quite a few old basketball preseason guides, and googling a ton of names. Thanks for the feedback!!

[jplayo]

Metallicarl, do you hesitate for the teams without a year? very difficult to choose one (I could suggest 84-85 for Georgia Tech with Mark Price and John Salley, ...or 89-90 with Kenny Anderson, Virginia 80-81, Loyola Marymount 89-90 with RIP Hank Gathers and former French Championship player Bo Kimble, and don't forget 89-90 NCAA Champion UNLV and so PHI SLAMA JAMA Houston 83-84!!)
Great and long work you try to do, do you know if it's possible in the game, to reproduce the playing style of each teams (no analogy between Houston and Duke'92 for example)

[Playmakers]

I've always felt EA's basketball could be edited to make it feel better on the floor by having the players fee more grounded.

I think in NCAA 08 i had to make the following changes globally to give movement done right and also make the AI smarter on offense and defense

Passing +5
Speed +10
Quickness -40
Offensive Ability +15
Defensive Ability +15
Fatigue -5
