NBA 2K20: 1999-2000 Roster Project With Draft Classes (20 Year Sim)

Re: NBA 2K20: 1999-2000 Roster Project With Draft Classes (20 Year Sim)

First Year Results
Michael Jordan Went to the Celtics and averaged 25PPG

My Raptors had a good year With VC Being an All Star and dunk contest winner...But We ended up getting the 8th seed and losing to the Pistons in the 1st Round...MJ Almost brought the Celtics to the NBA Finals but lost to the Knicks of all teams in the Semi Finals...Shaq and Kobe Ofc won the Title

Offseason went well (I Suggest always skip the Draft to your pick and then sim the rest of it to avoid crashes)

But we got the 15th pick in the Draft, I Signed Doc Rivers as the coach, Resigned T-Mac, Signed Chauncey Billups And Drafted Hedo Turkoglu with the 15th Pick....So i had a really good offseason so far

Roster is pretty fun so far

Just a few notes from my quick review of the roster, this is in the spirit of making this roster the best it can be and NOT criticism:

• Isaiah Rider should be named "J.R.", that was is nickname and he went by that
  
• Maalik Rose should be "Malik"; also he was like 6'5" and 250 lbs
  
• Jon Crotty was a fantastic 3 point shooter
  
• Antoine Walker was a 3 point chucker, I lowered his skill and upped his tendency
  
• Bruce Bowen should have lighter skin
  
• Patrick Ewing was rated a little too high. He was on the downside of his career and averaged 15/10 that year.
  
• A lot of teams should have "patient offense" as the coach's tendency to slow the pace.
  
• The first round was best of 5, not best of 7 back then. It went to best of seven in the middle of the 2003 season.

Question - how do I change hair/skin color on the players?

Roster is great so far! About to start the 04 season. The Cavs somehow won the LeBron sweepstakes with the fourth highest odds and the Nuggets got Melo at number two with the tenth highest odds!

Haven't run into any problems, yet. Your rosters are definitely the easiest to set up since we don't have to worry about custom leagues, etc. Can't wait to see how the rest turns out!

As a Spurs fan, this roster is great because I can play with the defending champs and see if I can derail the Shaq-Kobe dynasty.

In '99, San Antonio swept the Lakers in the 2nd round and the next year Duncan hurt his knee right before the playoffs, and we were unable to defend our championship.

I just finished my first game, with the Spurs beating the Knicks 90-82 in a Finals rematch.

Duncan dominated with 22 pts, 25 rebs, 10 assists and 5 blocks. Reminiscent of his 21-20-10-8 that he put up in Game 6 of the 2003 Finals to win the championship.

Robinson added 17 points and 19 rebounds.

Allan Houston led the Knicks with 22 points and Ewing had 14 and 11.

This roster is so much fun.

When I started I edited Jordan to 1 EuroYear left...... debating on opening him up as a FA (only 5 games in so far) and seeing where he goes.

I never liked Jordan as a kid (Celtics fan) so I don't think I'll sign him to Boston, I'd rather build what I have.

Made 1 trade (for personal fan reasons) and swapped Dana Barros to Toronto for Dee Brown. Wanted him back as my backup PG to Kenny Anderson.

I'm excited to see where Boston goes with Pierce and Walker, maybe get something out of Walter McCarty......

Love the roster simmed the first three years my only complaint is with the my league settings there are barely any injuries but that’s in easy fix I’m going to run it again and turn up the injuries a little more so bench players can get some minutes and for the rookies of the year thing thanks for these amazing rosters and draft classes bro!

Question - how do I change hair/skin color on the players?

Thanks for the advice and notes man...As for players heights and weights i went based on Basketballreference.com...But they do get some players weights and heights wrong sometimes.

As for editing players in the game like bruce bowen it is impossible to edit the looks, skin tones to them since they are not created players

Ewing rating is a little high but averaging 15 and 10 and hes a legend i decided to make him higher...But maybe he can go down 2 ...I rated players based on team success as well so there teams are good in the season like they were in real life...Knicks were a top team in the east these years...

As for the settings like the 7 game series ...I did mention in my Tutorial tbh it is glitched when i made the settings i put it to 5 and it resets back to 7 when i save the settings...Also the start the roster with existing injuries is glitched as well you have to edit these manually i guess

The other fixes are pretty easy to do but thanks for the input i will edit a few things to fix these

Yes i feel you the injuries are something i hate dealing with personally but you can edit the settings of the my league to your liking the only thing you need to keep off is the Hard cap tbh...Cause if you turn that on no teams can sign the free agents cause they run out of money and players With high overalls just sit in the free agency....All the other stuff u can play with to your liking though

For The Next finishing touches to this roster i will be going on one of my burner PS4 Accounts and making EVERY rebrand/Courts/Jerseys for every team and i will make a list here at what year/time to change the jerseys so everyone can have the right courts + Jerseys for each year...My main PS4 Ran out of space to make more

Re: NBA 2K20: 1999-2000 Roster Project With Draft Classes (20 Year Sim)

I found a way so that the courts dont disappear. U need to change the scorers table lol

Re: NBA 2K20: 1999-2000 Roster Project With Draft Classes (20 Year Sim)

I was going through and checking to see what years teams moved and such, changed cities so we can mimic that if you choose.

After 2001 - Vancouver moves to Memphis
After 2002 - Charlotte moves to New Orleans
After 2004 - Charlotte Bobcats are introduced
After 2008 - Seattle moves to Oklahoma City
After 2012 - New Jersey moves to Brooklyn
After 2013 - New Orleans renamed to Pelicans
After 2014 - Charlotte renamed to Hornets


I think that's the timeline if anyone is looking to match that part of history with this franchise.



Personally I don't think I plan on moving Vancouver, maybe not Seattle either. but I will probably follow the expansion of Charlotte/New Orleans so that the current Pelicans can become a real team, maybe do it in 2002 though, so I can relocate the current Hornets to NO and move the current NO junk team to Charlotte as the expansion Bobcats

Awesome...So do you just edit the scorers table as in the logos or change what scorers table number it is?

Thanks for the list man....I am currently going through each team watching youtube videos of the courts and what year they changed and i will be making these very soon....For the Bobcats/New Orleans switch ...Do not switch the teams around in the league realignment after the first year of simming....If you switch the pelicans and hornets from east to west teams it crashes...So i suggest just keeping pelicans as is and naming them the New orleans hornets and just rename the hornets with baron davis the bobcats
