NBA 2K11 Developer Insight: "Jordan Challenge" - Some Historic Teams Announced

[bearschicago]

I just hope it's not super easy dunking with MJ on the entire team... It's way too easy to use turbo and dunk in 2K10. I'm hoping 2K adds mid-air collisions such as a slap of the arm/hand and defense is a top priority(particulary help defense/help the helper/team defense).

With specific historic playbooks, Jordan should play like himself but I hope he won't be cheesy.

Maybe NBA 2K19 will have boney Reggie Miller on the cover, and you can play with him and knock yourself out against Houston and the Suns, or push Jordan, hit a three, and jump around like you just got your first school-yard kiss. And like someone posted, those teams might be unlockable or DLC. But as for now, be happy.

Alright man, but I know the Devs read these forums...so it's important to say what you want to see in the game instead of just praising it on end.

It's good they are adding classic teams, so of course once they did do that people are going to ask "Where is X?" and while they may be unlockable we really don't know that. It's harmless to ask on a forum "Where is the 2x Championship Rockets?"

Fellas we haven't heard what improvements and additions are in the regular game modes and 2K is already showing us some really good stuff.

Yes Thanks 2k for forcing $60 more out of my tight wallet. Talk about pulling out the stops and when you said big announcement this time, you meant it. Thought I'd stick with 2K10 again this year but I have to have this game!

Magic is in 2K10, I don't see why he won't be in 2K11.

Righto, though sometimes there's been legends in one year, then gone the next. However, I believe I read that all starters for the retro clubs are accounted for so we should be all set in that regard.

1995-96 Seattle Supersonics

Greatest team ever!!!

Also, I wonder if Jordan will have his "switch-a-roo" move

[Mintsa]

Honestly.....how the expansion 95/96 Raptors did not make the list is beyond me. They beat the Bulls during there historic 72 win season !!

This is a travesty.......





Just kidding.....LOL.

But all this classic team info is amazing !!!! Hopefully we can roll with classic teams online.

Great work guys !
