Only good thing on this team is 2nd year SS Darko Milicic...

This will be the first year I will play a classic team regularly since the Jordan game of 2k12 I think. You just made my whole damn month 2k.

I'm also wondering if 2K will make an exception and bring back the upper arm/biceps bands (Hint, Hint, 2K art crew).

God I hate and love this team

I don't remember them saying anything about 6 east and 6 west. It's certainly possible though.

Also, It's a huge longshot for any of the Bucks or Pacers squads to make it. Bucks won't be remembered by the casual fan and then there's the reggie miller situation with Indiana.

But yea add the '07 Cavs and '09 Magic to the list of pending teams, they are on the 2nd tier of automatic bids to make the game. The first tier of auto bids probably belongs to '05 Suns and '06 Heat.

Would it be asking too much to get Ben Wallace's gong to make a come back? It was one of the best parts of NBA 2K5.

We Could also see 2 Classic Teams from the Same Season like the:
99/00 Raptors and Blazers
07/08 Rockets and Celtics
02/03 Mavs and Nets?
03/04 Pistons and Wolves?
05/06 Suns? and Heat?
00/01 Lakers and ?

Remember in the MYGM/MYLeague News yesterday, we could use different Sounds when a Player makes a 3, blocks a Shot, gets a Rebound!!
A Ben Wallace Gong would be Epic!!!

My bad your right...it was Darko Milic that was the rookie. I forgot it was the Lebron class. Thanks for correcting me! I on Xbox or Ps4 im getting it on PS4....we can hoop it up if you want....gamer tag Juicey79

If they had the 04 TWolves on there it would be the cherry on top for me.

If it's a 2001 team my best guess would be either the Bucks or Kings
