Memphis Grizzlies
Oklahoma City Thunder
Sacramento Kings
New Jersey Nets (leaked by Kenny Anderson)
Los Angeles Clippers
Washington Wizards
Indiana Pacers
New Orleans Hornets

With seven slots left, I still think there's an outside shot 2K goes for it and tries to put together a squad for every franchise to align with their 30 All-Time team push. In that case, four of those last seven could come from those teams mentioned above.

In that case, I'd be a little conflicted because I'm still really pulling for a 2002 Nets, 2007 Warriors, and 2000's Spurs. Also, knowing the struggle with convincing Reggie Miller to jump aboard, I feel as though including a Pacers team is going to be underwhelming, especially if it's a 2013 squad. I'm also a little worried about the feasibility of a classic Wizards team if Gilbert Arenas, Rod Strickland, or Rasheed Wallace aren't on board.

Perhaps worth considering all the same.
Its going to be hard to make an all time pacers team without new pacers legends and if they have them we'll be getting a new classic team.

I can see a bullets team or MJ wizards tbh -- I dont think the wizards classic team is dependent on those guys

I'm in for all the others and I like this Magic team to, but not before we have Jason Kidd
How about we take out the lakers 04 and replace them with the nets

"Lol wait." Reread it. Thats not what I said at all. I said you cant make up an all time great Pacers team with just those two....therefore the the 12/13 pacers team wont be enough to fill out that Pacers all time team...

I'd rather see the 98 Bullets rather than any of MJs Wizards.

2010 Trailblazers is also welcome.

I'd definitely take an MJ Wizards classic (if a '97 squad weren't possible) but I was looking through the lens of which players are already included in the game. A lot of the new classics seem to have a base of players 2K's already had on other classic teams or on MyTeam and from what I can tell, the '02 and '03 Wizards have always been a bit light on licensed players. Aside from Jordan, Tyronn Lue, Charles Oakley, and Richard Hamilton, I'm struggling to remember who else on those rosters are already on the game.

Of course, perhaps 2K would just go out and get the guys they need. That's always a possibility, too.

I've already responded to that and said I misinterpreted it. Go back a page.

Huge 'meh' for both these teams.

As with the Grizzlies - I won't be using these two at all .

More 80's/90's teams, please, 2k.

Question - was Darius Miles in 2k17? Because I saw his card in the MyTeam video for 2k18 - maybe the Clippers are in??
