If EA is adamant about staying in the basketball market then I agree with going with the NCAA. EA could swap the NBA out with NCAA and continue what they have. They have something with online. The NBA side leaves a lot to be desired. However, with the NCAA, the players would be generic so there's not much really to update. The appeal of the collegiate schools could be enough to draw in interest. I know I'd preorder and buy just for that.

I never thought about baseball, either. MVP baseball could have the entire Xbox market and even a few burned out Show players. They would face a similar challenge to Live overtaking 2K with basketball, but they would have the entire Xbox (maybe even Switch) market to get their roots planted and grow. I honestly think that this would be the safer route.
