Sports is always full of what-ifs, video games allow us to answer those ifs. Kind of ... well not really but at least it’s fun.
As someone that loves creating and destroying rosters in video games, I love to mix and match teams from other sports and try to translate their stats into another video game. For this edition of Fantasy FIFA, I put the Cavs and Warriors roster into the game. Here are some things you should know.
The characters look generic as hell.
Use your imagination.
Some stats were easy to transfer ... others weren't
Stats like speed and acceleration are obviously easy to transfer. I had to get creative for other attribute categories like “slide tackle” and “curve”. I just had to make uneducated guesses on those.
Some players do get subbed out.
I can’t do anything about that for now, but it’s super hilarious because most of the NBA players look gigantic.
Here’s what the formations look like:
GALAXSTATE WARRIORS (For color scheme purposes, sorry San Jose fans)
