For anyone who has read my blogs in the past, you know that I am serious about MyGM and MyLEAGUE. I'm blessed to work with a core group of people who share the exact same level of passion. We've done a LOT of work to these modes this year, and one feature I can't stop talking about is...League Expansion. This is entirely new to NBA 2K17, and is the feature I want to tell you about today.

I hope we can fully edit and customize courts, logos, and uniforms for existing teams.

If we can re-locate and re-brand the ENTIRE LEAGUE then for me its Day-1 buy! I already cant wait to make a lot of Retro Roster if this is true!!!!

Yeah, short shorts, we need them.

I really hope we can rebrand the entire league. I could create entire season with 100% accuracY! 70s, 80s, 90s, olympics, oh my...

I hope for everyone else they addressed online issues, gameplay, etc. But for me, these features were my biggest asks.

It would be nice if you could have the choice between 4 divisions(old school) or the current 6 divisions set-up. If I chose to expand with 2 more teams, I would like to be able to have four 8 team divisions.

Can we stop with this Euro league crap and get the D League please. That is a lot more important for my league.
 
# 32 extremeskins04 @ 07/19/16 02:44 PM
Sorry I'm not sure i understand. So we can have 36 teams in franchise mode, but isn't realistic to the NBA? I know it's an "option" and people love options, but aren't we trying to get more sim?

The new menus look really nice. So much better than 2K16.

all this and no carry over saves smh
 
# 35 Poppindom @ 07/19/16 02:45 PM
Does anyone know if we'll have custom audio? For example, custom chants like in MLB The Show or College Hoops 2K8.

In the "Start Today" do you know if we just finish the 1 season or can you play for multiple seasons?

Zooming in on the image they provided here, it appears the creation of the expansion team is -- at least on the surface -- very similar to last year's rebranding. The left-most box says: "Design a team from the ground up with the creation of a team logo, home/away uniforms, and a custom arena."

The second box -- the "Use Pre-Built Team" -- is interesting in that the two uniforms depicted there are both colored ones, highly unusual for a team that isn't the Lakers. Doesn't seem like alternate uniforms is a thing, but that's merely conjecture on my part.

Menus are looking real noice 2k! I was hoping you guys would take a page out of how it was done you know where... very clean modern design.

Rebrand 6 teams total instead of 3.. am I getting that right? I guess what makes that cool is the expansion angle which makes things way more interesting. Now when I create the olympics tournament I won't have to use an old nba team to compensate for filling the full 30 team roster.

You could also create an older favorite franchise without compromising a current team too. Put a team back in Vancouver and keep Memphis for example.

Downloading designs right from the community...awesome! How much more time would that save many of us lol, but hopefully we can edit things even after we download.

Too bad we saw nothing about designing alternate uniforms. That was one thing missing that would've been really cool.


This is where the confusion starts

- Start a league with Expansion where you can instantly expand the league from 30 up to 36 teams (all with designs of your choosing).
Is it rebrand six teams or is it all?
