I've always wondered why this was included for exhibition or other modes. WWE 2K also had this feature. Maybe it's something they will include this year? You would think the option to use a different scorebug and filter would be easy to add in, but the immersion would be A++

Cautious optimism.

I agree and am not getting my hopes up. I'm probably wrong about this, but haven't they had players in the MyTeam area that weren't in the base game on a classic team?

Don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to have Kareem on the Bucks and Lakers, but I'm going to stay cautiously optimistic until I see him sitting there on the roster next to Magic and Big O.

I was dying to do a showtime Lakers vs Bird Celtics last year but it was just pointless without Kareem. Pumped that he is back.

I'd be very, very surprised if Kareem Abdul-Jabbar were a MyTeam exclusive. I think the difference between Abdul-Jabbar and some of the other classic players who've been exclusive to MyTeam is the fact Abdul-Jabbar has two of his classic teams already included (I believe the 1971 Bucks and 1987 Lakers).

Meanwhile, guys like Rick Barry, Shawn Bradley, and Tracy McGrady were MyTeam exclusive because they did not have a corresponding classic team in the standard mode with which they could be a part. Now that the 2003 Mavericks and 2008 Rockets have been added, both Bradley and McGrady should appear both in MyTeam and standard play, just as I assume Abdul-Jabbar will.

^^^^
this plus the card say 87. Which represents the year the card is based off of. Why wouldn't he be on the 87 lakers.
