The '98 Jazz weren't this bad IRL.

Depends on how they are used.

You can't play run and gun, shot jacking hoops with the classic teams unless they're built for it (Showtime Lakers are BEASTLY).

You've gotta play 80's 90's ball with those teams. Lot of banging down low. Lot of mid range. Lot of PnR.

Folk make the mistake of picking the 00 Lakers and try to play like the '16 Warriors.

Doesn't work that way.

They have the rosters already. It's in the classic team roster spot. I can't find the link right now. But I've been using it for a while now.

But I totally agree Utah is hurt big time by Russell not being on the team. Playing offline with team is FUN (with those rosters I mentioned).

But my favortie team to play with is the Lakers 2001 or the 2001 Kings. Win or lose it just makes me really happy to play with those teams. I love playing with Shaq.
