NBA 2K17 Features League Expansion For MyGM & MyLEAGUE Modes

[packers122787]

Now you can expand your myLeague with extra teams what does this mean for roster creation?

This could mean Create a Team which can be saved to a custom roster, or using the Olympic team(s) for a franchise.

Its a good sign they will add more historic teams. The rumor 2K17 news has come this late was because the developers are balancing the game a bit with KD on Golden State now. They should add more of the best teams of all time to pit against the current Warriors squad. Fits with this league expansion...

All those rosters with added historic teams can be ported into franchise mode and have a custom team uniform design to go along with them!


A lot of these have been mentioned but i'm still hoping they have:
myTeam players in custom rosters,
download created players,
alternate jersey creation,
more hairstyles and tattoos on created players,
more uniform options like shorts length for jerseys,
body types,


This is a good sign but I'm not biting the lure just yet...

I wasn't planning on purchasing this year but the expansion mode really has me intrigued. I don't really watch the NBA outside of the NBA Finals, the draft, and a few highlights.

I'm happy playoff mode is back!

Sounds Great. Can't wait to try out the expansion league and probably full around a bit on a custom league as well. As always though, I'll probably eventually settle with just doing a regular 30 team league with the default teams as my main league.

Hopefully this means the created players will be more realistic, since I'm assuming they will fill out the rest of the rosters on expansion teams. And here's also hoping the preset team templates aren't a bunch of wacky color combinations. I'm just really excited to finally have some news.

No preset Seattle team? Weird. I wonder if there was some legal hang-up that prevented them from doing so. Oh well, at least we'll have the community making unis and stuff for us.

But sadly, there's no option yet announced (if any) for a Hornets-Pelicans style (or Cleveland Browns) deal where the moved team gives you back your history and retired numbers. Instead we're stuck with what happened with the NHL's Winnipeg Jets and Arizona Coyotes, where the original Jets moved to Phoenix and took their history with them, and the when the Atlanta Thrashers moved to Winnipeg to become the new Jets, they were stuck with nothing. (But don't tell the fans that--and believe me, I sympathize. Houston Oilers/Texans, anyone?)

That said, while I'd much rather have Kentucky Colonels than Louisville Liberty, "Kansas City Knights" was actually a name I used in 2K16 when moving a team there! I like that name!

I have a feeling we still won't be able to rebrand and relocate all teams on consoles but I would be shocked if we can't rebrand and relocate more teams then last year.

This shows that 2K is listening to use. They took stuff that a lot of use suggested and took it to the next level. The sharing designs is big. Simballer you the man. Can't wait to get more news.

Hopefully Kentucky is one of the preset teams.
