Files from 07 won't work in 06 but it's possible to play a season with those classic teams 06.
You just need to edit teams.dbf file from classic roster. Open teams.dbf file and search for the column "TEAMCODE". NBA teams have 0 in this file, classic teams have 13. So just switch this value so NBA teams will have 13 and classic teams will have 0. Now they're be showing up in the season mode teams.
Then for avoid problems you need to edit a few other columns. Column "SEED" means the position in conference. From 1 to 15.
Remember that 8 teams go to playoffs, so 8 teams that will have 1-8 will be in the default playoff tree.
Column "CONFERENCE" means conference that team is in. Fill 0 for West and 1 for East. Remember that there must be at least 8 and max 15 teams in one conference.
Column "DIVISION" means division of each team. 0 is Pacific, 1 is Northwest, 2 - Southwest, 3 - Atlantic, 4 - Central, 5 - Southeast. There must be at least 1 team in every division and max 5.
Of course from all these columns you must "turn off" NBA teams. I suggest fill in 13 for TEAMCODE, 16 for SEED, 5 in CONFERENCE and 8 in DIVISION.
Hope this will help you.
Should work, but I haven't checked it. Good luck.
