Some are complaining about these scrubs missing from the game like its Kobe or CP3..really? The amout of times ive seen Larry Hughes name he has to be related to some of you guys..lol

Well in Stiemsma's case he has started games for the Celtics and has gotten 15 minutes a game so I would use him realistically to that.

I know it hasn't been you so this in a way isn't directly only to you but you guys need to get the facts together and get some perspective on this guy. There is far too much yelling for this dude to be in and people not having the proper facts.

First he didn't sign for the rest of last season with the Blazers until the middle of March. So we are talking about a guy who signed with about one month left in the season. Add to that the fact that the Blazers already had 15 guys on the roster in the game. So somebody please to me why 2K should have kicked somebody off the roster who has been there all year for a guy who just signed with one month left in the season?? There really is no argument here for him to have been added last year it just wasn't possible.

Now this yes you blazers guys can have a problem with him not being on the roster but i wish people would stop yelling things like "oh Chris Johnson has been missing for two years now how lazy". Some perspective is needed here.

Guess i'll wait until one more update before i start my season.

Also for the guy or guys complaining about the Lakers rookies being on the reserves you do realize one of them is in the D-League and hasn't stepped on the court at all since the season started?? The other has played a grand total of 30 minutes this season. Only Luke Walton has played less so I guess you could ask for him and luke to be swapped but there is a legit reason why they are on the reserve.

But he was on the team LAST season. Don't defend them by downplaying the importance of the player.

Pargo not being there? No excuse.

Him not being at least in the Free Agent pool isn't acceptable.

He would be the only relevant player to even mention about being missing..

The other players offense & defense awareness would be so low that even intangibles wouldn't help them be a factor on the court.

All the other miscellaneous stuff I been reading are just hidden agendas to bash the game..

Its just VERY hard to believe not having a certain tattoo , or hair style, or by not adding NEON BODOW OR RICKY ROW to free agents will keep someone from buying a game next year, or post the SAME things over and over.

I don't even see the need to dramatically change ANY attributes..

The season is fresh and there's really no player balling out of control at the moment. Maybe a good couple of games here and there but ratings can be tolerated as is..

I went through the list posted earlier with the missing players. There aren't many that are getting significant minutes and a few haven't even played this season. There are some that should definitely have been added already and I could understand the disappointment
in them not being included by 2k as of yet. Stiesma, Davis, Pargo, Harris, and Thomas should have been in long ago. I was upset with 2k this morning, but then I went through this list and really there is not reason for all the complaining when you look at the individual players missing. Jeremy Pargo is the largest omission.
