Perhaps, but in the graphics the jerseys are different based on conference as well.. I could understand that maybe being the case by accident if it happened once, but every decade is like that. Maybe they just don't say East/West on the jersey, a lot of All-Star unis over the years haven't actually had East/West on the front.

Edit: For example, the jerseys that those 80's and 90's sets are mimicking, neither actually said "East/West" on the front on those actual jerseys.

Kobe and to a lesser extent Dwight Howard raise an interesting dilemma of recency bias, as they did all their damage at the start of the decade.
Howard hasn't been an All-Star in 5 years but he was an All-Star for the first 5 years of the decade.
He was drafted out of HS in 2005 and naturally his prime years came this decade (though Howard uncharacteristically peaked earlier in his career than most).

Should Kobe be on the 2010s team over Giannis?
Kobe was still dominant in the early part of the decade, and won a championship in 2010.

Giannis will assuredly be the LeBron of the 2020s team as his best years are ahead of him.
Giannis was drafted in 2013 but took 4 seasons to develop into an All-Star level player. How much weight do we apply to those non-star years?

TOP 15
PG: Russell Westbrook, Stephen Curry, Chris Paul, Damian Lillard
SG: James Harden, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade
SF: LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kawhi Leonard
PF: Anthony Davis, Blake Griffin, Giannis Antetokounmpo
C: Dwight Howard, Joel Embiid

2K could realistically just be putting more weight on their peak years than number of years.

You didn't complain, but there's really no point in you (or anyone) chiming in just to say:

If that's all you have to contribute, just don't comment. It's pretty easy, yet it happens in every thread on here. Even if it's just a joke, it's still there and baits others or tells others it's ok to start piling on. Some of us care about this. If you don't, then don't comment just to comment and (in a round about way) belittle the rest of us who are excited about classic teams.

"I don't see who will use this" isn't contributing anything either. It's a new team option for people to use and that's all that matters.

And that's enough people. Not every mode is going to cater to 100% of people, or even 25% of people. I don't care one bit about Park but you don't see me popping in those threads to say "Yea I don't care about this, give me info on Classic Teams and MyLeague!" It's pointless.

Well said sir. Well said.

On topic, I feel like Stock, Dream and Duncan look better this year. Could just be me though.....

I'm curious the degree of influence R4ZOR had on this stuff.

Yeah because I'm not interested in anything that had to do with removing classic teams

Stockton definitely looks better this year. He used to look like a little mouse. At least now he looks pretty close.


McHale looks updated too.

I don't have a problem swapping Ben Wallace for Paul Pierce given the difference in position quality
