Me too. 2K11 had a couple of Magic-esque layups in there. I'd like to see his pass where he'd kick one leg up and throw it one-handed.

How much of an impact do you guys think the high number of downloads & high ratings of the classic rosters on 2K share has on decisions from Ronnie's end?? Do you think they note the popularity of these roster file at 2K, and does that have any bearing on their decisions (or are they oblivious to the 2k downloads)??

I'd like to think it had some impact. You and PB went nuts this year.

That's an interesting question. I always kind of wondered where 2K drew their "fan influence" from. I don't want to overstate it, but I have to imagine someone over there was able to take some sort of note of how the classic theme seemed to blow up both here at OperationSports, and also on 2KShare. I'd like to think our deep interest here at least helped reaffirm ideas they may have already had for fleshing out the classic system.

Jordan was the greatest in the air & Larry the greatest on the ground (because he can't jump-ha).
