The Celtics are still missing D.J. White as well, plus Malcolm Thomas is on the Bulls now, not the Warriors.

Must be really hard work to change Robinson's number from 0 to 41. Piss poor effort.

# 3 mango_prom @ 03/23/13 09:33 AM

Wow...seriously?

# 4 scooper1030 @ 03/23/13 10:01 AM

I guess I'll have to wait until NBA 2K14 for Lindsey Hunter to even get a shred of respect from 2k.

# 5 mango_prom @ 03/23/13 10:01 AM

It would take maybe half an hour to fix all the numbers and add a few missing players. 2k could use generic faces, since most big market bandwagoners don't know how Gelabale looks, maybe don't even that he even exists.

I hope the guys at EA get their sh*t together and pull off something good. Quality of 2ks games would improve for sure.

This is ridiculous. Just update Harris and Vucevic already

I was surprised that they gave Hark an update in the last one. He's justified it though by playing great ball for us over the last few games. I was hoping T-12 and Vu would get an update but i knew we were asking for too much as Orlando fans.

jeff teague still hasnt been upgraded smh the only pg on the game that gets no love from 2k because he is on the hawks devin harris is 1 point higher than teague and he hasnt even come close to playing on teagues level

Couldn't have said it better.

This has been answered, TBH I don't know why it's mentioned in every OS update on 2K rosters.

Lindsey Hunter's CF Model is NOT in the game. Had Thunder Dan or Elston Turner been promoted (which should have happened) this would have been changed ages ago.

How can you play a game with rosters done by someone with no NBA IQ and by far the laziest worker in America. It really wouldn't surprise me if 2k sports has workers in India or something doing roster updates to save money. I really dislike EA Sports. But I am glade people now realize that 2k sports is just as bad. I mean go look at MLB 2k13. Talk about a scam.

This is why I don't expect anything from the 2K Insider, I go to the OSers for my roster updates

# 12 thedream2k13 @ 03/23/13 12:02 PM

this is actually a above average update from the insider. Slowly getting better

The game is not half-assed. It's just the roster and settings guys that make all of 2K look bad.

# 16 shawno306 @ 03/23/13 12:25 PM

This is what happens when you're the only basketball game on the market. They have no competitive drive knowing basketball fans only have one option, therefore small details like this get ignored. This is why NBA Live was good haha

# 17 LoSoisNiCEx414 @ 03/23/13 01:57 PM

LARRY SANDERS!
Jeff Teague
Gordon Hayward
Tobias Harris
Vucevic
Lance Strphenson (free throw)
Need updates

# 18 JazzMan @ 03/23/13 04:05 PM

The game itself is fantastic. Why wouldn't I stop buying the 2k series?

The roster on the other hand is absolutely terrible. 2k's Roster Updates need a serious overhaul. How do you leave that many players out of the game? I understand the T-Wolves situation: the game is coded so that there can only be 15 guys on a team, but in the case of Kevin Murphy being left out of the game? WHY? He's a second round pick, the 14TH PLAYER on the team! You have room to add him! This is ridiculous.

The Insider couldn't take 10 seconds of his time to change Robinson's number either... my god. The Insider is a mess. He/she/they have to go. Hire somebody from OS that actually knows what they're doing. They already do a better job than the Insider and they're working for free.

Don't even get me started on the ratings... ugh, what a mess...

So? Should it really take two months to create one face? I know his CF isn't in the game, that shouldn't change a thing.

It's because you can't apply that face, even if its a generic face.

You can't make a Cyberface because you'll need to make a patch just to ADD the cyberface.

You can't apply a CAP because I recall Created faces are hard to apply on coaches.
