that indeed would be awesome, but I am not sure such a large project will be achieveable.

don't forget you need graphics which link your player's faces to the players you'll see on the field. It's a plus you can help with the programming.
But it's also thousands of games each week, with multilple hundreds showing at the same times, and I have no clue haw taxing this would be for servers and how many servers would actually be needed to realise this.

And there's a bunch of other factors to take nito account.

I think if they would start such a project they will need to do it in steps and evolve a little at a time, starting with very basic "same for all" standard plays to show.
If this is ever gonig to happen, there is a long long road to get there...

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

Never going to happen... And honestly I don't see the difference as there would only be a set amount of video plays just like most video games. So people would then be complaining that there player always does the same dunk or the rebounding all looks the same. And as previously said a game with that type of graphic would destroy the server and be very costly to create and maintain. Hence the price to play would go from free to alot!

Ideally the BB's develop a ball tracker in time to accomidate the play by play. That way we will be able to see a bit more about how the engine works :)
