I saw old school Hawks for sure, Randy Wittman was in a clip, pretty sure that was Kevin Duckworth on the Blazers also. Classic Rockets in there too Kenny Smith an Otis Thorpe trailing Mike. Anyway, really stoked about this game now. You guys see anything else exciting?

Good eye to the first guy that noticed the other teams in the clip.

I saw the Hawks (dominique), The blazers (Drexler), and the Rockets and if you pause it right before jordan takes off from the freethrow line, you can see #34 THE DREAM!!! and vernon maxwell, Otis thorpe and i believe Kenny smith.

Really, Iverson did a lot for the 2k franchise, they have to put him in the game

It'd be the coolest thing ever if I were proven wrong, but I interpret that comment as basically saying, "It's not just the legends, but the teams they were playing on from particular years as well." Because you know how sometimes games like NBA Street just has the legends and that's it? I think this article is saying that's not the case. Having totally full classic rosters through and through with no players missing seems really unlikely but again, it'd be cool if I were wrong.

Yeah, probably too good to be true, but I have seen some players that haven't been in 2K games for a while (A.C. Green, Kenny Smith, Vernon Maxwell, etc.), so who knows?

One, it's awesome to see the '94 Rockets represented (Hakeem Olajuwon, Kenny Smith, Vernon Maxwell and Otis Thorpe all spotted, as others have mentioned). And second, it's cool to see 2K didn't just leave the 2K11 classic rosters as they were. For instance, I saw a real Kevin Duckworth this time around.

I'm going to take a guess here for some of the other legends, and since it talks about 60's, gotta go way back for some.

- Shaq (since he just retired)
- Sir Charles Barkley
- Hakeem
- Drexler
- Dominique
- Pistol Pete Maravich (hoping for this one, dude was the man)
- Jerry West
-Wilt the Stilt Chamberlain
- Bill Russell/ John Havlicek

Incredible. This mode is going to be awesome. Great job 2k on adding more teams and players.
