2003-2004 Season Classic Roster

[VDusen04]

XBox360
Gamertag: Swove
Roster Name: 2004 Full Classic Roster V2

The Good:
-29 teams have 12 players (except Bobcats)
-Supersonics are a created team
-Jersey numbers accurate (except Orlando's Tyronn Lue perhaps)
-Accessories accurate
-Lineups accurate
-A lot of great teams:
Lakers (Shaq, Kobe, Malone, Payton)
Pistons (Ben, Sheed, Chauncey, Rip, Tayshaun, Darko)
Timberwolves (Garnett, Sprewell, Cassell)
Rockets (Yao, Francis, Mobley)
Nets (Kidd, Jefferson, Kenyon Martin)
Heat (Wade, Caron Butler, Lamar Odom)
Pacers (Jermaine O'Neal, Reggie Miller, Artest, Harrington)
Kings (Webber, Bibby, Stojakovic, Divac, Brad Miller)
Hornets (Baron Davis, Mashburn, David Wesley)
Grizzlies (Gasol, Battier, Swift)
Nuggets (Melo, Andersen, Andre Miller, Jon Barry)
Celtics (Pierce, Ricky Davis)
. . .and every other team from 2003-2004.

The Medium:
-Created players will look lame in close-ups, but favorable during gameplay
-Created players' ratings deserve a look to match up to users' liking
-Best created players (in appearance) are likely those downloaded seperately (Webber, Sprewell, Iverson with rows, Reggie Miller, Mashburn)
-Team play styles were not touched
-Headbands do not always match road uniforms

The Good Again:
-Any improvements and rereleases of this roster are welcomed

I hadn't planned anything in the near future. I kind of just threw 2004 and 2007 together because I knew I'd be able to use a lot of active players as well. My create-a-player abilities are limited from a detailed appearance aspect. I tend to make them just look generally like their real-life counterparts (ie bald with goatee). I may try my hand at a 1996 Playoffs roster. I'm not sure there's enough create-a-player room this year to put together 29 full rosters of created players.

I know OS member PortlandBlazer is planning on releasing a 1986 roster. Contrary to my own abilities, PortlandBlazer is very well versed in creating detailed player faces. Last year he created years 1991-2002 so perhaps he could at least develop a '96 roster at some point down the line.

Re: 2003-2004 Season Classic Roster

Just a little note, I was talking to someone about created Sonics in the regular 2K forum and I realized the color schemes I used on my rosters are way too bright. The green would have to be darker as well as the yellow. As it stands, they look a little too much like the early 90's Sonics.

Further, the away Sonics are the only jerseys I can get to look anything like the real thing. Has anyone else made some Sonics uniforms they'd like to share?

portland has created 86 roster and his sonics logo - jersey - court are great.

Good call. I'm hoping I will have the ability to download that roster very soon. It'll be a little different though, the 1986 vs. 2004 jerseys. Their colors went a little darker. Still, I appreciate the heads up, I'll definitely give his Sonics team a look and compare.

Are you certain they're non-functioning? I only ask because when I initially went to download PortlandBlazers' 1986 roster, I got an error saying they weren't available at the moment (or something like that). I waited for 5-10 minutes, dabbled in NBA Today then came back and tried again, at which point the download worked.
