NBA 2K11 Developer Insight: "Jordan Challenge" - Some Historic Teams Announced

[23]

Had MJ come back about a month or two earlier he would've been reflexive enough that the steal wouldn't have happened..... anyhow yeah I'd like to see that PHX team and the ORL team

In order to add more teams it means chasing down more players and more rights and more money and more time. Either way, people will never be satisfied.

Youvalss, can you PLEASE get on top of a mountain with a microphone and say this?!

I'm not saying this is MJ2K11, but if this was all about YOUR classic team, MY classic team, HIS classic team, THEIR classic team, etc, they would've had about 5 Hall of Famers on the cover. This is The Jordan Challenge, not The Hall of Fame Challenge. Is it that hard to understand? I know some people want Houston, Phoenix, Jackie Robinson's Brooklyn Dodgers, Jim Brown's Cleveland Browns, Wayne Gretzky's Edmonton Oiler's and all others on the game, but give it a rest.

I know I sound like a jerk, but I don't mean to. I'm just saying Jordan's on the cover--not 10 Hall of Famers.

I hope a 90s Indiana Pacers team and a Miami Heat team will be available. It would be a lot fun to re-play a Pacers vs. Knicks and Heat vs. Knicks.

The Heat might not be on there bro (I mean as a future announcement/unlockable one). This is not ESPNClassic2K11.

OS users have been creating classic teams, players and in the case of PC gamers, jerseys and stadiums as well. What 2K is doing all bull ****, in my opinion.

You have no clue what you're talking about.

If 2k left the game as is and only added the Jordan challenge and classic teams, then MAYBE you'd almost have a point, BUT they didn't.

No details have been released but they have been working on improving the gameplay.

One thing that I don't remember reading about: Let's say, I play one of the challenges in this mode, but as the OTHER team. Is MJ going to try to go for his achievement? I mean, If I play As the 1992 Blazers, will MJ try to make 6 straight 3-pointers against me?

Wow. So Clark Kellogg was just recently named vice president for player relations for the Indiana Pacers.

Is this a sign of new commentator(s)?

Nice find. But it says:

Quote:

Kellogg will continue to work as a television analyst for Pacers games and as the lead college basketball analyst for CBS Sports.
