NBA 2K16 Adds '07-'08 Boston Celtics & '12-'13 Miami Heat to List of Classic Teams

[yellow86]

We shouldn't get worked up over the term classic, but here's my point about why for example the 07-08 Rockets work as opposed to these two: T-mac & Yao are great players who had some great years together. T-mac is in as a rookie but was much better as a Rocket obviously, though already on the decline. Still it's a memorable team because of the streak and apparently highly requested. Both are classic players so I love the fact they put this one in.

07-08 Celtics were a great team, but with most players still in the game and only a few who contributed are missing so create them and you could easily make this one. This is even more so for the 12-13 Heat and to me personally this one is a total waste, since there are a lot more interesting Heat teams of the past or even Lebron teams of the past.

I think the game crashes if you scroll past them...

Should have the 2011-2012 Bobcats in. What a historic team.

09 Magic one of the worst teams to come out of the East in recent memory, tho. But if the 07-08 Rockets get in, I guess it makes sense. All about hype, nostalgia and unfulfilled potential.

No it doesn't. 07-08 Rockets are in because of Yao & T-mac, two classic players. 09 Magic was just Dwight with a bunch of role players who are still playing or on a classic team already (Rafer, Jameer, Turkoglu, Rashard etc.). Those 02 and 03 Nets teams would be the worst though, nothing memorable about them and I don't even know how bad the East must have been for them to make the finals two years in a row with that horrible roster.

You're basically saying prime Jason Kidd was not memorable but 07-08 Tmac who avg'ed 21 points with 41% fg %29 3p and also a horrible %68 free throw shooting "classic".

I'd rather play with K-Mart.

2k will probably give ridiculous ratings to TMac but 08' T-Mac is actually trash. With those stats and his decline coming i would give him at most 87-88.

True. They'll magically give him his 2002 knees and skills back.
