I don't really follow the NBA (or RL basketball at all really although I do watch some March Madness if I can). So the lack of rosters doesn't bother me too much. When I get the game (maybe as early as this coming week if I can get a good deal on it) I'll probably just play with My Player and the Classic teams.

Even with the lockout I am having a blast playing 2k12. Luckily I am also a college basketball fan so I can still get my basketball fix. Tonight is also Late Night at the Phog in Lawerence, KS which means basketball is right around the corner.

Same here, I wasn't expecting it to effect me this much, but it has. It's been all classic teams for me so far. The issue with the current rosters isn't just the lack of rookies, it's knowing so many teams have a lot of trading and free agent shifting to do. They're definitely not close to being 2012 rosters and they're not quite 2011 rosters. They're lost in middlespace, which makes them very unappealing to me.

My real saving grace was going to be the classic roster years I figured folks would be working on right now, perhaps at a faster rate with no real-deal current rosters to mess with. Alas, the decision to limit classic team transactions this year very much crushed that dream. Can't we just add Nick Van Exel to the '98 Lakers without entering a season, exporting a team, trying to sign Nick Van Exel, realizing it has to be done in the season, starting another season, looking for Nick Van Exel, realizing you forgot load up the correct roster with a created Nick Van Exel in free agents, restarting, loading the roster, starting a season, signing Nick Van Exel, exporting the Lakers, then realizing you forgot all about Rick Fox?

I've been playing a fantasy associatiion with legends only with the ABA ball and been having a blast!! I probably wont play with the current stars until the lockout is over..only thing that sucks is that you can't edit the legends age so a number of them are retiring after the first season...give us the option to edit player age 2k!!

the aba ball and an all legends association sounds fun as heck. I went with 2k11 for this year as I just do not see this lockout ending well at all.

Stupid lockout. I've lost respect for a lot of them. especially cough cough D-Rich cough um I mean D-Fish. Stop whining get out there and play some ball. Anyway I'm still having a good time with the game I just really want the rookies.
