Share your expansions teams / experiences

[ZekeRoberts]

I would love to see what everyone has come up with for custom expansion teams (whether you've uploaded them or not). Please share whatever you have and what kind of results you've had. Even if you used one of the pre-made expansion teams I would love to hear your opinion on how things are going, whether you were happy with your selection or not, how much success you've had, just in general what do you think about this mode?

I'm going to start a MyGM or MyLeague with 2 expansion teams around Christmas Day, and then I'd like to carry it forward adding a couple more teams every four or five seasons until I hit 36, so I'd love to have the "six best" teams I can get!

It's always bugged me how the names on the backs of jerseys look so WRONG and DIFFERENT on the court, yet when you edit the jerseys, the names appear fine. But on the court, they're so squooshed and vertically-stretched.
This is for created teams, like you can download from the community.

I've been stuck with the pre-built teams because of this.

It's a shame, because building an expansion team is a ton of fun, being able to make a franchise that's truly YOURS, with no prior legacy to build upon, and/or no mess to clean up either (think the Brooklyn Nets for the latter).

But man, if only for that bug! I can't make the Seattle Supersonics because the names on the jerseys are so distorted!

I'd show comparison pics, but my phone is having trouble with the internet for some reason. Can someone else download a Sonics team and show the differences I'm talking about?

Here is my Buffalo Stallions expansion team that I created. Cannot upload due to a prohibited word, Buffalo maybe? Here is a link to the dynasty report Welcome Back: Buffalo's Return to the Association

That's awesome, I did a STL Spirits thing last year, this year I'm doing a St. Charles Explorers team.

Okay this is a dumb question but how do you upload your team? I created a expansion team and really like the jerseys I did and want to be able to use it again for when I want to start over.

I added 6 expansion teams to MyLeague. They were: Vancouver Ravens, San Diego Surf, Kansas City Knights, Virginia Storm, Nashville Stars, and the Baltimore Barons. I chose to be the Virginia Storm.

I started at the beginning of the off-season. I had the 4th pick in the draft and ended up drafting Ben Simmons. In the expansion draft, I got Josh Richardson, Donatas Montiejunas, and Tyson Chandler. Ended up getting Rajon Rondo and Eric Gordon in free agency.

I am going to play my first game tonight.

I haven't noticed any major issues with the jersey names being stretched that you mentioned about Trackball. I have a Sonics set that I created using a bunch of different logos other people much more talented than myself added to the game, but I think the expansion I edited it too came out great. I don't have pics but my Xbox gt is Tiesel if anyone wants to check them out. Only the most recent sonics one is my up to date set. The older one is meant to be alternate jerseys for my same team, but I have a few details to add (patch logo, shorts waistline stripe). I also have Pitt Condors and Pitt Force teams loaded in there.

Again, I didn't create any of the logos, I just used them from various other people and mixed them together to come up with what I think is a pretty cool overall design.
