      I feel that way too. He's been disrespected by no era being named after him. If anything the modern era could be the LeBron vs Curry era, they met 4 times in the Finals and once in a play in game in the span of 7 seasons with LeBron winning 2 Championships and Curry winning 4 in that span. Very comparable to Magic vs Bird who met 3 times in the Finals.

      It is just in vogue right now to discredit LeBron James and downplay his impact and achievements.
      Stop crying about LeFlop. 2K knows exactly why they don't call the modern day era the Lebron era because only fanboys like this flopping hypocritical superteam chasing crybaby

        I am very appreciative of the multiple player models for other legends, but it just seems like a large oversight to give LeBron James only 2 when even Scottie Pippen has 3. No disrespected to Pippen, I've been a huge Pip fan since the first three peat, but I don't know many people that would rank Pippen over LeBron and I don't think it's controversial to say that LeBron is a more popular and recognizable figure than Pippen, yet LeBron has only two player models. As you mentioned, even the ability to edit facial hair would at least work at bare minimum for using the current Lakers LeBron player model with shorter beard for the 2016 Cavaliers LeBron at least, although the best thing would be 4 separate player models each with hair and facial hair options similar to how Kareem and Rodman have available to them.

          For comparison Kareem has 4 as well with one for his Bucks team, and three different Lakers player models.

          Kobe has 3 the 1998 and 2001 model, the 2004 model, and the All Time Lakers model.

          LeBron inexplicably has only 2. The 2007 Cavaliers player model and his current Lakers player model.
          The 88 MJ model is different than the 91-92 model??

          I thought he just had the young one with hair and 2 bald ones, one with a mustache, one without.

            I actually think they will add a "LeBron vs Curry" era in a couple years if not sooner. Which might be a bit controversial but I can see 2K doing that.

            They better be careful and not burn that bridge like they did with Barkley bc once Bron retires you know they're still gonna wanna use his likeness...can you imagine 10 years down the line having all those classic teams with no Bron??

              The 88 MJ has hair but its not the rookie mj hair. He has a shape up and its a lighter crop, cant really explain it.

                Work in progress for a Silverdome court (Palace didn't open until 1988) and a Grant Hill era Pistons floor.

                  Looks like they removed 'The move' from Jordan's layup package.....

                    That doesn't make any sense since they have it in advertisements and it's in the Jordan Challenge. Must be a mistake they will hopefully rectify.

                      You’re kidding.

                      Has anyone seen him do the move in this game? It was overused before but the key part to his layup package.

                        Question, do they still allow changes when it comes to the changes or not?

                        Meaning, if you do a custom floor, will they also say in 2002 (Pistons change logo and floor) when you are playing eras?

                          That's a tentative yes based upon my suspect memory. I seem to recall fiddling with the arena editor last night and advancing past a season only to see a new floor come in after I'd edited the previous one. I'll experiment to find out for sure.

                            If so? Yes! That would be amazing cause then the issues we dealing with (jerseys/floor) would be a non factor. I could edit the Hawks and Sixers jerseys in the 90s and it would be good. Lets hope for that

                              Can confirm. Just edited the 2002-03 Cavaliers court then during the 2003 offseason, the Cavs court still rebranded in time for Cleveland lottery pick Kirk Hinrich's NBA debut (though I had the option to nullify the rebrand if I so desired).

                              So yes, if you edit a court it will not cancel any scheduled rebrands.

                              On the topic of the Cavs rebrand though, that's a team that needs a lot of court work. The 2003 rebrand introduces their late 2000's court art, not the darker rookie LeBron court. Which again, is understandable, but still worth noting.

                              Edit: I already see a proper 2003-04 Cavaliers court on 2KShare (XBox). Nice.

                                Wonderful, that hopefully means that you can also edit jerseys.

                                But this is WONDERFUL for the courts of Suns,Hornets and Hawks that are missing. It doesn't mess with the rebrand schedule.
