"mrjordan classic rosters v2"
SEE FINAL LIST ON PAGE 2 OF THIS THREAD.




I have spent a few weeks compiling 26 classic teams of 8-12 players per team (the max I could create) in one roster file.

THANKS to PortandBlazer, Taur's Hardwood Classics, and other unknown sources.

Additionally I did all the edits in TOMBA's roster style and settings to eliminate sliding and create more authenticity.

Finally, I adjusted the coaching sliders to reflect each team's style (roughly)

example roster squads: From PortlandBlazer -
Reggie's Pacers (re-edited to 1998 Pacers)

From Taur Hardwood Classics-
72-73 Knicks
Kentucky Colonels
73 Nets
Barry's Warriors
70 Lakers
ABA Pacers
Connie Hawkins' Suns

From others-
Jordan's Bulls (compiled best found individual player DNA's)
Isaiah's Pistons
70's Bulls
Bird's Celts
Magic's Lakers
Hakeem's Rockets
Stockton's Jazz

From me-
ABA Nuggets
The Buffalo Braves (as Cavaliers)
76ers with Chocolate Thunder and Dr. J
Kings with Tiny Archibald
77 Blazers

And more!

The final 4 teams to use are the Thunder, Raptors, TWolves, Bobcats...
all edited down to be fodder for the classic teams.

The only thing you need to do is when you start a association, watch the news screen for signings of free agents by the created teams- the CPU will sign 1 player per team to 9 classic squads, so when they do, get over to the edit screen and edit those signed players down, so they dont dominate your classic teams!

* play with injuries off and make sure the rotations are correct.

I have them aligned in my franchise this way:
EAST
1. 70's knicks,Lakers,Bullets,Celtics,Raptors
2. 70's Bucks,Pistons,Suns,Bulls,Kings
3. 70's Warriors,Hawks, Braves, Bobcats,Thunder

WEST
1. ABA Nets,Colonels,Pacers, Nuggets,TWolves
2. 80's Lakers, Celtics,Pistons,Blazers,76ers
3. 90's Knicks,Jazz,Rockets,Pacers,Bulls


The rosters are sweet-
No short shorts but otherwise
NOT perfect though- still need help perfecting them.

I believe the problem would be the "***" in classics

Played several games in a 26 team Classic Team Association and it's like a dream...literally...

Hakeem's Rockets SLAMMED my '77 blazers by 20 pts!

Then I turned a huge deficit into an exciting 98-95 win by Maravich's Hawks over Rick Barry's Warriors in Golden State.
Barry had 20 pts at halftime, until I doubled him and held him to 7 in the second half.

Ewing's knicks beat the ABA Kentucky Colonels with Artis Gilmore
on 37 pts by Ewing. Gilmore had 5 blocks but Ewing owned him otherwise.

Finally, the 76ers with Dr. J and World B. Free beat a lousy team by the skin of their teeth, sleepwalking through a lackluster 5 pt. win...Dr. J was an insane 50% behind the 3pt line.

Basketball heaven...

Thanks
