This is an aspect of the game I'm truly passionate about, so I figure I bring my own list.
City Selection:
I'd like to see this updated with more selections, namely going South of the Border into Mexico, among other places to relocate a team. I'd also like this to become meaningful commentary material. It could be something that's brought up on occasion if you decide to relocate a team. Would love to see the fans react realistically to your decision as well, regardless if they love it or hate it.
Team Branding:
I agree with needing the additions of having RGB values and a colorpicker tool being used to be more accurate and less time-consuming. So the one thing in this section I'd want would be an audio name selection. It's annoying to want to edit existing NBA teams, only to realize, moving forward, that they will no longer recognize the team by their nicknames.
Arena/Court Editing:
Arena Type:
It needs to expand beyond the current selection of 12. I'd like to see all 30 NBA arenas be available for use, but all of them scrubbed away of any NBA branding on the inside. In addition to that, add more generic areans that would range between small venues, mid-size venues, and large, professional venues.
Jumbotron:
The same concept stated in arena type applies here. A marked improvement would be to have more options to choose what's shown on the jumbotron itself. And you should be able to have a separate display package for the ribbon boards in the arena.
Scores Table:
Need more than just the 5 options we've had; more choices between the digital and more traditional scores table types. There needs to be an option to have selections separate from the table and the ads that you can place on the frame of the stanchion.
Basket/Stanchion:
Should be time to allow logo placement onto the stanchion padding to replicate what's seen in actual NBA arenas. There's no reason we shoudn't have more options for this either; we need to be able to choose different types of baskets that range between the timeframe of the 60s uo to what's current, and the same should apply for the shot clocks.
Seating:
I haven't put much thought into this, but I will give the option of changing the styles of the seats themselves, and aesthetically, have the option to do patterns on the seats. (See NHL 19's Create a Team. Pretty deep, immersive feature in their game)
Arena Sounds:
Bring back the ability to upload your own sounds. That would be an easier way to replicate what's actually heard across the league's arenas.
Court Editing:
*I agree with what most of what Chris stated in his article, but I'd add more hardwood pattern types, as well as more hardwood stains. The current selection between Very Light and Very Dark could stand to be expanded and more appropriately accurate. (see NBA Live 19's court creator)
Uniform Editing:
Once again, I agree with most of what was said, but the fonts, number colors, and accessory colors stick out most to me. It's time that the name on back and jersey numbers color issue gets addressed. There's no reason I should have to seek out a different color to resemble what's on the rest of the uniform when the values should just match (RGB values would help here too). More/new fonts are long overdue, and it's time to be able to add or subtract outlines for the numbers and name on back; it would help more fonts be usable and allow for more congruence between your font and jersey design. And to the accessory colors, what's weird is you can choose the sock color for your custom alternate uniform, but not your home and road customs. And for the accessory selection, it should be your top 3 colors found in team branding, and have white and black on standby in all the selections. Another thing to note, would be to allow the Nike/NBA branding to remain on the socks. I'm sure that can be updated, as opposed to just having plain socks.*
