Recreating the ABA! But where is the ball?

[Turbojugend]

I've uploaded a few already, but I can't upload a bunch because harmless names like "Colonels" and "Conquistadors" don't pass the 2K censor filter. :P

BTW, another designer named toddlud did some of the original ABA designs. I added my own logo scans and rebuilt the unis and arenas but it was his base I started from.

I miss when you could enter the code "payrespect" and unlock the ABA ball.

It was actually a little easier for me to see, which is why I use the custom balls in MyTeam.

I think I misread this question originally. I don't have an authentic ABA roster yet, only the arena/uni designs. I'm thinking of creating one but it seems like it would take forever to build an ABA roster from the ground up, not to mention there would be tons of duplicate players as some of these franchises are actually the same teams, they just moved around a lot (ex: Oakland Oaks > Washington Caps > Virginia Squires). You'd have to do a lot of filling in, even if you covered the entire '67-'76 era.

Have you considered just adding some key ABA players to a current roster.

Example
Mel Daniels C , Roger Brown SF to Pacers
Willie Wise F to Jazz
Warren Jabali G, Ralph Simpson G, Dan Issel C to Nuggets
James Silas PG, Larry Kenon F to Spurs
Brian Taylor PG, John Williamson G, Billy Paultz C to Nets

Thanks,

Yeah, I will probably do exactly that. Artis Gilmore, Louis Dampier, Lavern Jelly Tart, Connie Hawkins... can't run an ABA league without those guys.

Ron Boone
Marvin Barnes
Don Buse
Darnell Hillman
Mack Calvin
David Thompson
Freddie Lewis
Mike Gale
