I agree 100% with this, and it is something that detracts from the game for me. I have even tried PMing a dev and asking him if they can put out one roster set with injuries and one without (or give us the option to turn injuries off), but I was never given and answer why this can't/won't happen. It makes absolutely no sense why we are FORCED to play with injuries if we want updated rosters with correct player likenesses from 2K.

With all of the other options they have in game, you would think something as simple as turning off injuries would be easy to implement. It is extremely irritating at the very least.

the china players dont have nba contracts and as of today they are owned by the country like iverson was when he left the league last year. They cant be in any nba games until the country releases the just like that rookie center for the bobcats.

You're explaining this like I don't know this already . It also doesn't answer the issue I brought up in the first post I made in this thread. They are 'locked out' the NBA this year, but what about next?

It's about the association. I'm all for emulating what happens in the NBA in season 1, but after season 1 things change. Those China players won't be locked out of the NBA forever, and Green will apparently attempt a comeback. Your explanations don't address those issues.

If there was a way to add those players and have them locked for a season that would be awesome. But 2K has it's hands tied this year, I understand that. They still shouldn't have removed Green though IMO.

Actually he isn't like those guys. Jeff Green is still part of the NBAPA so they could still use him. Those guys in China aren't apart of the NBAPA.

Thanks, now I understand why the China guys can't be in the game.

I still believe removing Green was a mistake.

I also don't like the fact that there isn't an option to "Turn Off" injuries in the game. If I recall correctly, if we play with these Injured players in offline play, the player is automatically subbed out of the game. Very strange, I don't understand why 2k doesn't just put the players on the Injured list? Why make them "Injured" and have their ratings dropped 20+ points? If a player is on the IR, we can't use them Online anyway or in any mode.

What I'll probably do is download a roster in 2k share that people upload. I'll find a roster from about a week ago that has all of the rookies and all of the players who aren't injured, and I'll use this roster for Offline play.

All I want is updated rosters. It is pretty ridiculous that there are no second rounders in there. I'm waiting to start a legit association/my player. And I agree, Jeff Green should be in the game.

Yes and this is going on for years now. I always laugh when I read how they have an ear for the users buying their game, reading forums and other bs.

We. Don't. Want. Injuries.
