2 More NBA 2K18 Classic Teams Announced - '05-'06 Grizzlies & '12-'13 Grizzlies

Disappointing. I'll take two more teams but I probably won't get much use out of either. At least we know to expect anything now.

Yeah kind of lazy, just give us the option to edit players and create teams, I'll make my own classics. 2k doesn't even invest time into getting looks right, since a lot of players have the look of when they retired and are last generation graphics any way....

I would've understood if they would've given us an 05 Grizzlies team to match up with the 05 Suns or if they wanted an 06 team, the Clippers, but not this..

Yea like everyone else I can see having one time just now 2. I really hope this isn't the trend of teams in the last 5 years to make the list

Officially lost hope for 93 Suns and R Miller Pacers.

That's one way to look at it. Another way is to consider that maybe we'd only get 14 classic teams without them. Really seems it could have been a situation where they were like, "Well, we've got enough player rights to make a few Grizzlies teams so... might as well." Look at them as bonus teams that probably didn't take anyone's place.

I'll take your word for it. I still thought he looked pretty cool, it was nice to play with a LeBron that didn't have cankles lol

I don't know how they can discuss these things and they narrow down their list to 16, two Grizzlies teams are left.!They must be laughing at fans so hard right now, it's like an April Fools joke..

I agree. I wish 2K would come out and say stuff like this. Context is pretty important. If you can put a stop to people thinking that these two Grizzlies teams took the place of some better options, a lot of the disappointment going around would be stopped almost immediately.
