Basketball Chess (NBA Edition)

Description
NBA 2K and Chess got married and had a baby!

NBA Chess is a game with deceptively simple rules, that lead to deep strategic play and simulate an actual 5-on-5 NBA game (my biggest ambition is for it to be used by coaches as a fun activity for their players).

What kind of squad will you draft ? Will you focus on shooting ? Defense ? Rebounding ?

What strategy will you employ ? Will you favor fast breaks or rebounding ? Switching or fighting over screens ? Double-teaming the opposing star player or not giving up any free shots ?

Throw in “special moves” and “4th quarter gamechangers” cards to provide variety and spice and you just might “love this game” ;)

>>>>>> Quick Look: >>>>>>

The basic rules of this game are guards that can move up to 4 squares, forwards up to 3, no diagonal movement (except when a card allows it) and double-teams that render the ball-handler immobile.

All other events, such as shooting, rebounding, passing, blocking etc are based on positioning, player stats and the roll of a 20-sided dice.

Bcruz take a look at the link in my previous post, there's an excel file somewhere in there if I remember correctly

Hi. How do you find the player stats? Theres a formula based on official status? So I can create my own nba player.

Alright, I'm downloading the files right now. Thanks for the link!

I believe the problem is Dropbox has cancelled the "public folder" feature, effectively cancelling access to users without a link. There's not much i can do unfortunately. This is a link that allows you to see and download the files, i hope it works in game: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nhjkzyqfrcbinai/AAD1zxGtQJ73D0TPD8SuqU-Na?dl=0

To add on to my previous comment: I really like your Basketball Chess classic and wanted to try the NBA version which, as an NBA nerd, looks even more fun/interesting. So, although you've stopped actively developing the game, if you don't mind reuploading those images or fixing the loading or whatever you need to do (assuming it's not a problem on my end -- I don't think that it is) that would be amazing. Thanks

None of the images will load for me. It looks like all the dropbox files have been taken offline. Do you mind fixing this?

Oh ok.

@Tomstar123 I've stopped actively developing this, but you're welcome to modify it to your heart's content ;)

+Shakm can i suggest you put Lebron's passing rating higher and Kyrie's lower.
