With the LeBron homecoming now would be a great time to add some of those old Cavaliers teams. My ideal would be 2004 Cavs just to have rookie LeBron. Throw in the 2007 team since they went to the NBA Finals and it would be a great opportunity to add the 2007 Spurs as well. Then I would add the 66 win 2009 Cavaliers, LeBron's first MVP season and almost the whole roster is still in the game. I was hoping for different LeBron led classic teams last year since he was the cover athlete, but with these next generation hardware and graphics I would be very interested to have the ability to play as those three Cavaliers teams. Also the idea of making classic teams as downloadable content seems like a reasonable thing that I wouldn't be opposed to. Maybe something like Madden did in the past. Or possibly era, decade, or player specific team packs. That way you could download the combination of teams you wanted based on your preferences. For example an "Era" pack of the Original Celtics era, which would offer classic teams from majority or all of their championship seasons and their Finals opponents. The Celtics "Big three" era of the 80s, Showtim
e Lakers, 90s Chicago Bulls, 2000s Lakers, 2000s Spurs basically all the multiple schampionship Dynasty teams and their Finals opponents. Player specific team packs so that way great players who were not on championship teams can get their due as well. Have a Iverson pack 97 SIxers, 2001 Sixers, and his later Nuggets teams with Carmelo. Tracy Mcgrady pack the Toronto rookie team with Vince Carter, The Orlando teams, and the Rockets. The LeBron James pack with Rookie 2004 Cavaliers, 2006 Cavaliers, 2007 Cavaliers, 2009 Cavaliers, and 2012 Miami Heat.

Then when making that point LD2K or anyone else would have a thread they can point to with all that info right there. Just a thought.

Again great post
Good call. I'll see what I can whip together.

I have a feeling a lot of new teams are coming. Tmac and Vince Carter's raptors. Or tmac with the magic. The big three of Boston will be there. I HOPE WE CAN FINALLY USE CLASSIC COURTS IN MYTEAM!

I would like them back but give me new teams, I am tired of having the same teams. Easier said than done but ever year they should switch a few of the classic teams with teams we haven't had before.

That is the main reason I've always been pessimistic about more Classic teams being included. Bargaining with individuals who have the right to ask for anything they want (Or like Charles Barkley and Reggie Miller just not wanting to be included) makes that process pretty hard. I'm all for them but I always practice a "Glass half empty" mentality with them..Enjoy them while I can..


To the person who asked would I pay for them as DLC the answer is yes. Having an option to download 1 or 2 teams in a pack for an additional 5 bucks isn't much damage and may help them earn cash to go out and spend for more legends.... I did the same thing in injustice to use batgirl, lobo, etc.

That's why I'm preaching screw negotiating/paying for player rights, especially when it results in incomplete rosters anyway....instead, make available the tools (a la MLB The Show, PES soccer, The Golf Tour, etc) and let the community create players, teams, seasons, etc.

One can dream...Freedom is a birthright, tho.
