I want to draw a basketball court on revit.  I downloaded the basketball hoop from this site but the hoop is too big.  How do you change the size of it?  The dimensions box is empty

also is there any way to sort the newly downloaded objects?  when i place the file into the library folder and load it in the drawing, it seems to appear in a random spot in the list

The family is not parametric, it cannot be changed by just entering the dimensions. You can either, look for a different one – parametric, or you can play with the one you have, it’s a pretty simple family. The pole is a sweep, the hoop is a blend and the backboard is an extrusion. All these elements can be modified separately in the family to suit your needs.
