English Copy
Product name
TakeCourt. The Chinese pages also print 接管球场. The English homepage H1 is “Play a free NBA GM simulator.”
Tagline
Draft, trade, rebuild, and win a dynasty. Like 2K MyNBA / MyGM — in the browser, without buying 2K.
This is the homepage lead, not a separate lockup file.
Positioning
TakeCourt is a browser general-manager simulator for people who want the front-office loop: lottery, draft, cap, trades, and a simulated season. The product page says the league is 30 original franchises with fictionalized players, and that the game is not licensed by the NBA. Arcade puzzles and the draft-lottery tool are on the public site. The dynasty mode’s own pages do not use one launch wording, so this pack does not collapse them into a single “now open” or “waitlist only” line.
120–140 characters
TakeCourt is a browser NBA GM simulator with original teams, not an NBA license. Public pages do not share one dynasty launch status.
133 characters. Target 120–140. Count is Unicode code points, including spaces and punctuation.
Summary only. The two launch wordings are quoted in the longer descriptions.
200–250 characters
TakeCourt is a browser NBA GM simulator. Draft, trade, and run the cap for 30 original franchises. Marketing pages put the dynasty game on a private-beta waitlist and say it will be free. The logged-out registration screen says the open beta is free.
250 characters. Target 200–250. Count is Unicode code points, including spaces and punctuation.
“Is free” compresses the registration screen. Its own line, 公测无需付费, is quoted in the 1,000-character description.
350–500 characters
TakeCourt is a browser basketball GM simulator. The product page describes a 14-team lottery with 1,000 combinations, roster building, restricted free agency, a simulated season, and deadline trades, in a 30-team league of original franchises. It says the game is not NBA-licensed. Marketing pages call the dynasty mode in development, on a private-beta waitlist, and say it will be free in the browser. Arcade and a draft-lottery tool are public. Logged-out /pay showed registration, not a checkout.
500 characters. Target 350–500. Count is Unicode code points, including spaces and punctuation.
600–900 characters
TakeCourt is the browser basketball GM simulator at takecourt.com. The homepage says “Play a free NBA GM simulator” and points to a private-beta waitlist. The product page says the game is in development, will be free in the browser, and uses 30 original franchises, fictionalized players, and simulated ratings rather than NBA teams, logos, or official statistics. It also describes a salary cap, a tax line, a mid-level exception, offer sheets, and salary-matched trades. Arcade is public and says no login is required. The live games named there are the $15 all-time lineup, Start / Bench / Cut, Rank Match, Connections, Build-a-Bucket, Mystery Player, Trivia Blitz, and Guess Player. A draft-lottery tool is public too. On 6 Nov 2026, logged-out /pay redirected to registration. That screen says the open beta does not require payment and shows no card form. No page states a review time.
892 characters. Target 600–900. Count is Unicode code points, including spaces and punctuation.
1,000–1,200 characters
TakeCourt, labeled 接管球场 on the Chinese pages, is a browser basketball GM simulator. The English homepage headline is “Play a free NBA GM simulator.” Its lead compares the decisions with 2K MyNBA / MyGM and says there is nothing to download and no need to buy 2K. The product-page callout is narrower: the game is in development, a private-beta waitlist is open, it will be free in the browser, and it is not licensed by the NBA. That page describes fourteen non-playoff teams, a 1,000-combination lottery, four drawn picks, cap room and exceptions, offer sheets, an eight-man rotation, a season it says includes injuries, fatigue, and development, salary-matched trades, and a postseason with a play-in and best-of-seven series. The homepage prints “$0 to play.” JSON-LD lists price 0 USD and availability PreOrder. There is no /pricing page, and logged-out /pay on 6 Nov 2026 redirected to a registration form headed 加入公测, with the line 公测无需付费 and no payment fields. /play still says invitations go out in waves and gives no day count. Arcade and the draft-lottery tool are the surfaces marked playable without that waitlist. These pages show no user count, funding, press quote, or partner.
1192 characters. Target 1000–1200. Count is Unicode code points, including spaces and punctuation.
Feature Highlights
- Thirty original franchises, fictionalized players, and simulated ratings. The product page says this is not an NBA license and does not include NBA teams, logos, uniforms, photos, or official statistics.
- Draft lottery as described there: 14 non-playoff teams, 1,000 combinations, four picks, with odds and four-slot drop protection described as the NBA’s 2019 format. A separate public tool at /tools/draft-lottery runs that draw.
- Roster building, a salary cap, a tax line, a mid-level exception, restricted free agency with offer sheets, protected picks, and salary matching.
- Tactics the product page names: an eight-man rotation, pace, pick-and-roll frequency, and switching. It also says the season engine is possession-level and that injuries, fatigue, and development happen across the year.
- Playoffs described on that page as a play-in, seeding, and best-of-seven series.
- Arcade, public, with the page saying “No login.” Eight live games are named on /arcade. Three more are labeled “Next in the lab” and are not features yet.
Value Props
- It runs in the browser. The homepage chips say “No download.”
- The homepage says “Free at launch” and “$0 to play.” The product page says the game “will be free in the browser.” JSON-LD lists price 0 USD and availability PreOrder. The registration screen says 公测无需付费.
- The work is GM decisions. The product page says you do not shoot, pass, or defend.
- The universe is original, so the pages can say what the product is without using NBA marks.
Popular Use Cases
- Someone looking for a Football Manager-style basketball game in a browser tab. That comparison is the product page’s own frame.
- Someone who already plays Basketball GM or 2K MyGM. The site has comparison sections for both, plus fantasy dynasty leagues. This pack does not restate those sections as a verdict.
- A daily front-office puzzle with no account. That is the Arcade page’s offer.
- Running the lottery odds without joining the waitlist. That is /tools/draft-lottery.
How it works
- The product page’s season loop starts with the draft lottery, then draft night, free agency and restricted free agency, camp and tactics, the regular season, the trade deadline, the playoffs, and awards and extensions.
- What a logged-out visitor can open today depends on the URL. /arcade and /tools/draft-lottery present playable tools. /play is a waitlist form that says the dynasty game is in development and that invitations roll out in waves. /login is a registration form headed 加入公测. /dashboard, logged out, is a sign-in dialog for the marketing account.

Files below are the ones in this site’s public folder, plus screenshots taken 6 November 2026. A fresh logged-out browser showed no cookie banner, so none was closed. Viewport 1440×900. There is no separate rights file for these images in the repo, so they are marked review required before anyone sends them to an outside ad account.

Website screenshots
About, blog, and pricing URLs were not captured because they returned 404. /pay was captured after it redirected.
Launch Video
Missing. There is no MP4 or MOV in the repo and no public film on the site. This is a 30-second, 16:9 script and storyboard. It is not a player, and it is not a finished video.
Script
TakeCourt is a basketball GM simulator in the browser. The site shows original teams, a draft lottery, a cap sheet, and a season loop. It does not use NBA teams. Arcade puzzles are playable with no login. The dynasty pages do not use the same launch wording, so this spot does not say the sim is open. The site is takecourt.com.
About 62 spoken words. Format 1920×1080, 16:9, 30 seconds. Captions would be burned in later. No fps is chosen because nothing has been encoded. Cover still is missing; the next frame is 1920×1080.

The Creative Rule
- Voice: short sentences, front office, concrete pages. No user counts, no press quotes, no funding, no partner names.
- Logo: place favicon.svg, or the CSS bar plus the word TakeCourt. Do not stretch it, recolor it, or redraw it. Franchise badges stay in a franchise slot. NBA marks stay off the work.
- You can say, because the pages say it: 30 original franchises, fictional players, simulated ratings, browser, no download, Arcade needs no login, the lottery tool is public, [email protected], [email protected].
- You must recheck before you say the dynasty sim is open, waitlist-only, free to play today, or priced. Quote the page you mean. The homepage, /play, and /login do not use the same words.
- You must recheck “online ranked and friend matches.” That phrase is in the homepage FAQ. /play says “Single-player dynasty.” The registration screen says 王朝单机. Leave the conflict visible.
- Password rules also differ. The marketing sign-in dialog says “10+ characters with a letter and a number.” The game registration placeholder says “至少 6 位.” Do not merge them.
- Contrast: put the mark on a dark ground, as the site does. Do not set type below the size used on the live pages just to fit a banner that does not exist yet.
Platform Template References
X, Threads, LinkedIn, and YouTube are Not created. These are fill-in templates, not published posts. Replace [company] only after the launch wording is checked.
X / Threads
[company] is a browser basketball GM simulator with original teams. Arcade puzzles are public and need no login. The dynasty pages on takecourt.com do not share one launch line, so this post does not say the sim is open. takecourt.com
LinkedIn / YouTube description
[company] is TakeCourt’s working name in this template. The public site describes a browser GM simulator: a draft lottery, a salary cap, trades, and a simulated season, using original franchises rather than NBA teams. Arcade and the draft-lottery tool are the pages that present something you can use without the waitlist. A film is not attached, because none has been made. Read takecourt.com/nba-gm-simulator and takecourt.com/login before you describe whether the dynasty mode is open.
Workflow Ideas
- Explain the product from the homepage. Use the 200-character description, /brandpack/og-card.svg or og-home.png, and a link to /nba-gm-simulator. Do not attach a launch video. The film slot is missing.
- Post one Arcade game. Use that game’s on-page title and a fresh capture of its board. The Arcade page’s “No login” line can travel with it. Do not use it to describe the dynasty sim.
- Check the launch line before any ad. Open /play and /login while logged out. They currently say different things: a private-beta waitlist, and 加入公测 / 公测无需付费. This workflow depends on en-play.png and en-login.png, then on a person choosing one wording. Until that choice, the ad does not run.
Accuracy Guardrails
- Do not invent users, funding, press quotes, awards, or partners. None of those appear on the pages checked on 6 November 2026.
- Price, as printed: homepage “Free at launch” and “$0 to play”; product page “will be free in the browser”; JSON-LD price 0 USD, availability PreOrder; registration screen “公测无需付费” and “免费注册即可体验王朝单机.” No price table and no card form were on the logged-out /pay screen.
- Review time: not written. /play says invitations roll out in waves. The marketing password-reset dialog says the reset link lasts 30 minutes. That is not a beta-review SLA.
- Checkout: not shown. Logged-out /pay redirected to registration.
- Launch status is unresolved across first-party pages. Keep both wordings until someone responsible picks one.
- “A full season simulates in minutes” and “a ten-year dynasty fits in a weekend” are sentences on the product page. They are not a benchmark this pack re-ran.
- Era Draft 82, All-Time Grid, and Teammate Chain are labeled “Next in the lab” on /arcade. They are not shipped features.
- Homepage demo numbers, such as the sample cap sheet and ticker contracts, are interface examples. Do not quote them as a real team’s books.
- A storyboard, a screenshot, and a script are not a finished video. Missing slots stay missing.
中文 copy
按中文页面的说法写,不按上面的英文字数表逐句翻译。
产品名
TakeCourt。中文页品牌写成「接管球场」。中文首页标题是「免费在线 NBA 王朝经理」。
一句话
选秀、交易、工资帽、重建夺冠。玩法对标 NBA 2K 王朝 / MyNBA,打开浏览器就能当总经理,不用买 2K、不用下载。
这是中文首页导语原文,不是单独的标语文件。
定位
接管球场是浏览器里的篮球总经理模拟:抽签、选秀、工资帽、交易、赛季模拟。产品页写明是 30 支原创球队、虚构球员、模拟能力值,没有 NBA 授权。在线小游戏和选秀乐透工具现在就能打开。王朝模式在不同页面上的说法不一样,这份资料不把它们收成一句「已经公测」或「只能候补」。
短说明
接管球场让你在浏览器里当总经理,球队是原创的,不是 NBA 球队。营销页把王朝模式放在私测候补名单上,并写上线即免费。游戏注册页写的是「加入公测」「公测无需付费」。两边都在,不能只留一句。
较长说明
中文首页写着「私测名单现已开放登记」,标题是免费在线 NBA 王朝经理。产品页把赛季循环写成:14 支未进季后赛的球队、1,000 组编号、抽出 4 个签,然后是选秀、限制自由球员与报价合同、战术、赛季模拟、交易截止日的薪资匹配,以及带附加赛和七场四胜的季后赛。同一页写明没有 NBA 授权,不用 NBA 队名、队标、球衣、照片和官方数据。工资帽、奢侈税线和中产特例也写在这一页上。在线篮球游戏页说不用登录,现在能玩的是 15 美元阵容、首发/替补/裁掉、属性配对、连线、终极拼图、神秘球员、快问快答和猜球员。选秀乐透工具单独公开。2026 年 11 月 6 日,未登录打开 /pay,页面跳到注册表,标题是「加入公测」,可见文字包括「公测无需付费」,没有付款表。/zh/play 仍是私测候补,写邀请分批发出,没有写几天。页面上没有用户数、融资、媒体评价或合作伙伴。
功能要点
- 30 支原创球队,虚构球员,模拟能力值。产品页写明不是 NBA 授权内容。
- 选秀乐透:14 队、1,000 组、4 个签。公开工具在 /zh/tools/draft-lottery。
- 工资帽、奢侈税线、中产特例、限制自由球员的报价合同、受保护选秀权和薪资匹配。
- 产品页还写了八人轮换、节奏、挡拆频率、换防,以及回合级赛季引擎、伤病、疲劳和成长。
- 在线小游戏不用登录。页上标成「实验室下一步」的三个玩法还没上线。
价值
- 浏览器直接打开,首页写「无需下载」。
- 首页写「上线即免费」「$0 就能玩」。产品页写将在浏览器里免费。注册页写「公测无需付费」。
- 你做的是管理层决定。产品页写明你不投篮、不传球、不防守。
别人会拿它做什么
- 想在浏览器里找接近足球经理的篮球游戏。这是产品页自己的比较。
- 已经在玩 Basketball GM 或 2K 王朝的人。站点有对比段落,这里不替那些段落做结论。
- 不想注册,先玩一局在线小游戏,或只跑一次乐透抽签。
怎么运作
产品页的一轮是:乐透、选秀之夜、自由市场和限制自由球员、集训和战术、常规赛、交易截止、季后赛、奖项和续约。今天未登录能直接玩的,是在线小游戏和乐透工具。/zh/play 是候补表,写游戏还在开发。/login 是「加入公测」的注册表。/zh/dashboard 未登录时是营销站的登录框,用来保存游戏记录,不是王朝注册页。
中文素材
中文界面在 /zh/。下面四张是 2026 年 11 月 6 日未登录截的,1440×900。没有单独的中文 OG,也没有中文成片。标志和 20 枚原创球队徽章与英文节共用,原文件地址见 Brand Assets。
中文口播,30 秒,16:9
Missing。 没有成片。口播稿如下,不能当成视频:接管球场是浏览器里的篮球总经理模拟。公开页面上是原创球队、选秀乐透、工资帽和赛季循环,不是 NBA 球队。在线小游戏写明不用登录。王朝模式几个页面说法不一致,所以这条片子不说它已经开放。网址是 takecourt.com。
还没有的中文文件
- 中文字幕成片:Missing。要等英文成片,再加上审过的中文稿。
- 中文封面:Missing。下一步 1920×1080。
- 中文社交横幅和头像:Missing。尺寸与英文缺失表相同。对应频道也还没建。
- 单独的中文 OG:没有这个文件。各中文页现在用的是同一张 /og-home.png。
