NBA 2K16 Reveals All 12 Teams Added to the Classic Teams List

[scottyp180]

Not to be negative about people's hopes and expectations but did people really expect the addition of any 90s teams? It seemed pretty evident after the annoucement of the first few teams that 2K was going for post 2000 teams. The 99-00 teams we're the closest we were going to get to the 90s

Dang, I really wanted last year's lakers. Worst record in their history and kobe as their main man. Woulda made their fans happy since most of them are complaining about the lack of their historic teams available.

Wth are you talking about

Well that Cavs team is the team that was LeBrons break out year.

I just don't think any 2000 team is classic tho.

If 2K came across a storage crisis and they had to cut all the fat, then yeah, I could see some classic teams getting the chop. However, there's no real hint that 2K is near that type of situation. As a result, removing a handful of teams seems to serve nothing more than a negative purpose for the consumer, in my opinion.

You're probably right. They could even offer the classic teams as a day-1 digital download if they had to really cut some space.

Here's to adding more old teams!

I really don't like them adding the 06-07 Cavs. No one to play with really but a younger LeBron, doesn't spike my interest, if it does for other cool. At least there are a good amount of teams on the list overall that I want to play with. Good job overall 2k.

I have never really understood 2K's logic on some of the teams but surely there is one. Why have the 85 Sixers instead of 83 that is considered a top 10 all time team if you can't have Barkley?

Honestly, I just think they should change the adjective as to not give certain expectations. For example calling them retro teams as oppossed to legendary or classic.
