Durant is certainly on the 2016 team.

There's an actual Barkley cyberface in the 2K16 files. It looks really good too.

Do you mind posting a picture of it? Im curious to see how he looks in comparison to 2K13.

I am a bit simpler than most here. I just want an olympic style tournament mode (group play then elimination etc). I don't need full FIBA nor IOC licensing. And for non NBA players on the international teams, they can be generic as well.

I seriously doubt any form of "official" Olympic tournament. That would require licensing of many if not all the individual teams and the IOC. I don't know if that sort of investment, a month after the games end, makes sense to them, people have a very short attention span. I think we'll see 4 or 5 of the top teams and that's all. It would be nice to insert them in a custom league though. Have they said what the minimum # of teams in a custom league is?

Well honestly you can't compare the 1992 Dream Team to any other USA Olympics team, or any other team ever, because none of them come close to that 92 team.

That was literally the best team ever assembled in the history of basketball.

I hate to go off topic, but 2012 team would definitely compete with dream team. Bird and magic were 35 and 32 respectively. 2012 had prime lebron, Chris Paul, KD, and Melo. Throw in Anthony Davis, Russ , Chandler, and Iggy. The 2nd best roster in history. Starting 5 v 5 is very close. 2012 better outside shooting and quickness. Dream Team, better defense and strength.

Anyway, to keep this on topic. I'd love to get 2012 and at least 8 -12 decent national teams. Spain Argentina,Brazil, Lithuania, Canada, France, Germany, Australia, Greece, China, USA. I'd be very happy with those teams and some decent courts.

Oh yea, and please let us customize dream team shoes. Give us old nikes and converse pleeease

Off topic - I would say the 2008 team was even more beast.
On topic - I hope we're able to edit the Olympic team. Then maybe we can decide for ourselves, atleast in video game form, which team was the best.
