Yeah, I don't think they should add the '14 Spurs yet, it's too soon. But I think it's also too soon for the '13 Heat but they still added them, that's my problem. And they do have the Admiral and TD on the '98 Spurs but that isn't even the championship '99 Spurs team which is better. But my main problem is that they don't have a Spurs historic team in the 2000's where Duncan, Ginobili, and Parker were all in or close to their primes. Some argue that the roster is the same in the 2000's compared to this year and it's semi-true because personnel-wise it is obviously similar; however, Duncan and the rest of the Big Three were better/more explosive players back then, especially Ginobili and Duncan so it's a big difference between the this decade and the last decade. Not to mention having our defensive stopper Bruce Bowen.

No I'm with you, I was hoping for a deep level of detail for this years 2k classic teams. Down to the way guys like Ginobili is more explosive in 2003, and different play styles were run for a younger pop too. But that would require a lot of dedication to that aspect of the game

should have thrown the 05-06 Spurs in there

Already have:
Duncan
Ginobili
Parker
Horry
Beno
Nazr
Rose

Add:
Bowen
Rasho
Barry
Brown


Would have much rather they did that than add Blazers with a gutted roster.

I enjoy playing with the classic teams, but the last couple years there have just been too many guys missing from teams to be fun playing with, so Im hoping its improved this year. If not Im going to attempt to create the missing players if I cant find them in 2k share. My problem is I cant do face edits worth a darn.


Personally some of the teams the added just don't make much sense, especially the 13 Heat team, classic means years ago, not a couple years back, so that's ridiculous they have them in. IMO the KG,Pierce and Allen Celtics aren't a classic team either no longer than its been, but whatever.




I really wish Reggie Miller and Barkley would sign on so we could have a classic Pacers team and the Barkley Suns team that got to the finals, but I understand its hard to put those 2 teams in the game when the best player from each team wont sign up for it. Still there is other older teams that could have been added instead of some of the rescent teams they made classic.


I would like to see them add in the ABA teams, or atleats some of them like the Pacers ABA teams, as they were dominant in the ABA years with Slick as there coach.

Agree so much wanting the pacers! I can only assume they added teams like the 13 heat and 07 Cavs for the fact many guys are already on current rosters so no new licenses or contracts are needed for those teams except for a few players

Personally, they should replace the '98 Spurs team with the '99 team. Honestly, I'm very surprised there isn't a championship Spurs team at all. I think adding the '05 squad with Parker, Ginobli and Duncan all in their primes would be perfect as well.

Im really sure thats the case, they add 07 Cavs, and now we have Eric Snow in 3 teams...they add 2 Lebron, 2 Wade, 2 KG, 2 T-Mac teams. They tried to put as many teams possible with the payers they have
