They really don't need to alter the body styles. These guys have made some changes to their physique but it's not like 2K has 30 different body types to choose from. The ones the current versions of these guys have will be as close as it gets anyways.

Hopefully faces/hair and tats are matching the younger/older versions though.

Agreed on the fact player models and faces and authenticity, at least for the stars, needs to be right. I can't play with a 37 year old player model Vince Carter, with a beard and same accessories on the 2000 raptors. I also think we need a younger looking lebron on the Cavs to give it an actual purpose of that inclusion.

This is truly buy or sell point for me as I'm really into the retro teams. Do it right 2k..

BTW anyone know if we can play these online at all? Would love to..

Agreed. Even just getting the correct facial hair and number of tattoos that correspond to LeBron's appearance that season would go a long way to differentiating the three LeBron player models. Obviously LeBron got more tattoos as he got older. The 2007 LeBron would be the only player model that would be drastically different from the current Cavaliers LeBron player model. Headband, different hairstyle, different facial hair and different tattoos. The 2013 model is not that dissimilar to the current Cavaliers LeBron player model. Besides wearing a headband, different hairstyle and only 1 tattoo that's on the current Cavaliers LeBron player model would need to be removed the Akron Est 1984 and more of a stubble beard than the fuller one on his current Cavaliers model.

Yeah, and I can't imagine it can be THAT hard to take a current model, slim then down a bit (for lebron, VC, etc) and then make them more springy to match their younger versions for starts. At least give us that.

Everyone hating on the 07 Cavs inclusion. Personally I would LOVE it, if they give it full authenticity. A rookie lebron is way different than a current lebron.

I think it comes down to a trained eye or attention of detail to notice all the differences which I feel like some of their devs have some don't.

We'll see.

The fact that there are no Spurs teams added is atrocious. I mean they have won 5 championships between the '98 team that is in the game and now. A championship team seriously needed to be added considering some of the teams that were added. A Prime Tim Duncan team is sorely missed. 2k messed up on this one. Any of the championship teams would have been awesome. Well the '99 would be my least wanted since the '98 team is already in the game but '05/'03/'07 are more historic and better than most of the teams added. Especially the '07 Cavs. I mean we brutally swept them.

And just to clarify, I do like most of the teams added, I just think it is crazy that they didn't add a Spurs team before considering borderline "historic" teams
like the Cavs or Wolves. And I think the '13 Heat is too soon. By that logic, the '14 Spurs should be included since they basically murdered that team the following year.

14' Spurs are one of the best rounded teams of all time. They dropped a few records too but I think it's because the 14 Spurs aren't much different from now roster wise. All the retro teams are drastically different then current.

Don't they have the Drob Duncan Spurs in there yet?
