I believe this is the best possible list that 2k could use for the "Greatest" Mode. I wanted to add the 1999 Spurs (twin towers) and the 1995 Magic (Shaq & Penny) just not enough room.

1. 1965 Celtics--Bill Russell, J.Havlicek (9 titles in 60's)
2. 1971 Bucks--Lew Alcindor, O.Robertson (2 titles in 70's)
3. 1972 Lakers--Wilt Chamberlain, J.West (69 regular season wins)
4. 1973 Knicks--Walt Frazier, W.Reed (2 titles in 70's)
5. 1983 76ers--Julius Erving, M.Malone (1 title in 80's)
6. 1986 Celtics--Larry Bird, McHale, Parrish (3 titles in 80's)
7. 1987 Lakers--Magic Johnson, Kareem, Worthy (4 titles in 80's)
8. 1989 Pistons--Isaiah Thomas, J.Dumars (2 consecutive titles)
9. 1990 Blazers--Clyde Drexler (2 Finals appearances in 90's)
10. 1992 Bulls--Michael Jordan, S.Pippen (6 titles in 90's)
11. 1993 Suns--Charles Barkley (one of the great 90's teams)
12. 1994 Knicks--Patrick Ewing (added to play Miller's Pacers)
13. 1994 Pacers--Reggie Miller (added to play Ewing's Knicks)
14. 1995 Rockets--Hakeem Olajuwan (2 consecutive titles)
15. 1998 Jazz--Karl Malone, J. Stockton (2 Finals appearances in 90's)

Even though that's a good list, and I concur with it, it's not on topic with what this thread is about. There's other threads that deals with expectations and what you want to see in the Greatest Mode.

I think what he is asking is if players who are signed to Under Armour (Kemba Walker and Brandon Jennings) will have on under armour and if it can be used on other players.

I hope they don't change the ball handling to much. Ah the post moves needed a tune up.

Alley oops were definitely good, but I could think of some improvements. They're definitely probably some of the best we've seen in a simulation video game but that may be only because the alley-oop has seemed to be a tough-to-perfect craft in gaming (either too frequent or too sparse, too spectacular or too routine). I personally wouldn't mind a chunk of more animations. I feel like I can think of all the types of alley-oop finishes in my head available in 2K. Also, I think signature alley-oop finishes would be an achievable step at some point.

So, while I think I'm cool with the way alley-oops are executed in 2K (except for the absence of alleys during offensive sets), I do think 2K could beef up on the animations even more than they already have. It kind of reminds me of the retro jersey thing. 2K has stepped their retro selection up a lot in recent years, but I think it could still go further. It feels greedy, but I don't mean it in such a way. My intent is to be constructive.

I thought I could too, then I saw one today I've never seen. And I've played this game every day since release, like a lot of us. But I do agree with you to a certain extent. I think the alleys are fine, but they could be better.
