    So......now we have no more Steve Nash.

    Say goodbye the Suns and Mavs.


    Seriously considering skipping 2k17 now. This is beyond ridiculous. They should be adding content, not removing it!!!

        Man, that's a bummer. He's usually been a tough one to make in create-a-player too.

          That's one thing I really liked about the last-gen Lives. They had those signature accessories since the beginning of the 360/PS3 gen. I don't remember if we could edit it (maybe around Live 09), but it was such a nice addition. Never understood why 2K developers never added it. They're so much into the small details (most of the time) that it's surprising.

            2001 Dikembe Mutombo:



            2K17 Dikembe Mutombo:



            2K12 Dikembe Mutombo:



            Video of Dikembe to get a fuller look, since single screenshots are liable to catch players in bad poses here or there (his free throws kick off at 1:53):

                You should probably be asking Steve Nash why he isn't in. I doubt 2k just took him out for the sake of taking him out. Probably a likeness licensing issue.

                  I think we mainly lost the battle for this year's edition. But maybe we can win the war next year...

                    Regarding Mutombo: After watching some of the Sixers-Raptors video, it doesn't look like they scanned a photo of him in and worked with that. It looks like someone was using the CAP feature trying to create his face looking at a photo. I wouldn't be surprised if some guys here created a better Mutombo on their own.

                      I believe they should get rid of the historic team if they have no intention to make them look realistic or at least close to how they should had look at that year the player played in.

                        The legends are getting worse, every year.

                        There's literally been ZERO love thrown their way this year, and it's pretty much almost sealed the deal for a no purchase for me.

                        Only reason Kerr has been worked on is the fact he's a coach and they've no doubt scanned him. Ewing, Pippen and Bird have only been fixed because they're part of a selling point, with the preorder incentive Dream Team.

                        Outside of that (That I know of) there's not been any improvements, just reductions, players being removed and entire teams in some cases)

                        Hell, they haven't even given us a Prime Kobe/Duncan team to use - heh, a 'gold' Kobe edition features nothing but stuff for online players, absolutely no incentive for offline players to purchase.

                        I'm basically feeling like a dying breed here. An offline relic who likes playing with teams from yesteryear.

                        It's clear where 2k's priorities lie, think I personally need to accept this portion of the game simply isn't getting any better and move on.
