I really hope Dumars is going to play tough D on MJ. I also want him to spin and lose MJ for a quick layup, leaving MJ wondering what has just happened...

Re: NON-MJ retro players you're looking forward to using...

Is there any indication that Penny Hardaway and the Magic will be in there? That would be my pick. If not the Supasonics with The Glove and Reign man and Ewing and the Knickerbockers. really hoping they have the Magic though, Penny is an all-time fave of mine, and I would love to play with him and Shaq.

There hasn't been any indication other teams beside the ones already mentioned will be included. I think it's safe to assume we'll be rolling with the 18 classic teams already presented.

However, I'm curious if the all-decade teams will still be present. This would provide access to still more legends and we might be able to add them and create our own classic teams (say, adding Shaq and Penny out of All-90's pool to the Orlando Magic then filling out the rest of the roster with created '95 Magic guys).

Maybe the Pistons will come with preset settings:

Coaching> Def pressure and help defense set to max

Jordan> Play Tight by Dumars


Every Piston player except Dumars and Maybe Thomas> Hard Foul 80+

Can't believe I'm the first to say this, but DJ! Dennis Johnson! A guy very high on my list.

But come on, you could go on and on. Just to name a few: Spud Webb, Moses Malone, Orlando Woolridge, George Gervin, Isiah Thomas, James Worthy, Toni Kukoc, Charles Oakley, Dominique Wilkins, Clyde Drexler and so on and so forth

is there a link to show what teams will be in from the classic teams? I'm kinda new to 2k, but this years version looks incredible, so now I'm interested.

Re: NON-MJ retro players you're looking forward to using...

I think I still have the little booklet/flyer that came with the black AJ VI, I bought in 1991. If I still have it, it should be at my parents' house (where the shoes are still kept in the closet, though they started to lose some parts...). I remember almost sending that thing to join the Air Jordan Flight Club back then. But since I lived so far away from the US, I gave up the idea. But I just loved those black VI, and even got my dad to take some photos of them a-la advertising photos (white background with the Nike sticker on it LOL).

I'd love to see these shoes in the game!

Those were one of my favs AJs too. Did you know they were used for the second Batman movie (1992)? They were altered so they could e part of Michael Keaton's Batman boots in order for him to move and run with ease.
