      Interesting, just so I can follow along, could I ask where you guys are picking up this information?

      Also, for those interested, a breakdown of each real life roster:

      2000 Blazers
      Scottie Pippen
      Bonzi Wells
      Rasheed Wallace
      Arvydas Sabonis
      Damon Stoudamire
      Gary Grant
      Detlef Schrempf
      Steve Smith
      Jermaine O'Neal
      Brian Grant
      Stacey Augmon
      Greg Anthony

      2003 Mavericks
      Dirk Nowitzki
      Steve Nash
      Michael Finley
      Shawn Bradley
      Adrian Griffin
      Eduardo Najera
      Raef LaFrentz
      Nick Van Exel
      Raja Bell
      Walt Williams
      Tariq Abdul-Wahad
      Evan Eschmeyer

      If those squads are added, it would kind of mess with my hypothesis of only sticking with teams made up of players already in the game. The 2000 Blazers might only have between 4-6 players already in 2K in some regard (Schrempf, Pippen, Wallace (coach), O'Neal (recent player), Anthony, and Smith). I'd imagine they would have chased a few more licenses to round things out. That could bode well for other possible teams included.

        I welcome both of those classic teams esp, the 2000 Blazers that was my favorite team after the Jordan Bulls era ended. Ill never forget the lump I got in my throat watching the Lakers come back from 15 to win that game in the playoffs that year.

            So are the additions only from the 2000 era?? If so 12 teams being added and we only know 5 so far gives a lot of room for teams that are being asked for to be in the game.

              I love Vince Carter as much as anyone, probably more, but there's no way 2K is going to add in one of those extremely mediocre Raptors teams. The only reason the Sixers made it is so they could battle the Kobe/Shaq team.

              And IMO calling Reggie Miller a legend is a big stretch, and while it would be cool to battle MJ or Ewing with him that's just another 90's team that the classic list is already crammed full of. I'd rather see a Barkely's Suns team if they absolutely felt the need to add another Bulls matchup squad.

              I'd rather see more variety, a Pistons championship squad, more 60's-80's teams, bring back the legends that were removed, etc. instead of adding every decent team from the 90's.

              Teams earlier than 2001 are considered retro/classic to me. Anytime later than that year needs to be a well known dominant championship team to be added into that category. I would rather see more teams from the 60's to 90's that where championship/dominant teams to be put in the classic category.

                Yep.. We need more championship teams past 2001 and I hope 2K knows that with adding the 07-08 Celtics. Now we just need one of those championship Spurs teams, the 2004 Pistons, and the 2006 Heat.

                  I would love to see a Malone and Stockton in their 20s to be a part of this. An early to mid 90s Jazz teams would be great.

                    So basically you want tons of Celtic teams and tons of Laker teams, and the 90s was just Detroit, Bulls, Rockets and Spurs which are already in the game, doesn't sound like a lot of fun to be had with just the championship teams being added.

                        I hope not. Too many players locked in myteam only at this point. I somehow doubt Barkley or Miller sign off on being in after so many years of saying no. But the pieces are there for lots of other options.

                        C'mon 2k, don't lock away Kevin Johnson from me in any mode but myteam yet again

                          I think we'd be missing the silver trash bags by one year (2003-04)...



                          ...and the green Puff Daddy alternates by two years:



                          Really dug those green alts though.

                            It would be great. Not only is Stockton clearly past his prime by 98, but the team lacks their fourth best player in Bryon Russell. The team has one real three in Shandon Anderson. Who is a solid backup, but not starter material.

                                Dee Brown does have a MyTeam card in NBA 2K15 so he might be on the roster
