Ah right....its a licensing thing isn't it. The hoops (no pun) that 2k must go through to get licenses. Jerseys, old school players and stadium names. Not to mention EA might own some licenses that 2k can't acquire.

Man, its a licensing thing too when it comes to the uniforms as well? Is that why some were missing for a minute?

Some Adidas uniforms were missing. But some were in they just replaced the adidas logo with the NBA logo.

There was, like, a 10 year stretch where I just slowly began to accept that they'd never really dive too deeply into the retro jersey game like NBA Live did back in '05. But 2K knocked it out of the park last year... to the point that I kind of need to rack my brain to think about what they're missing.

Anyway, some fun jerseys that'd help complete the collection:

The 2006 Pistons red alt, a variant of which I imagine may be coming via the current team's Nike alts:



Lightning bolt home...:



And road:



1970's red...:



...And white:



Some others:

The Charles Barkley '92 Sixers:

Spoiler


A tweak of the Vancouver home jerseys so the "Grizzlies" is teal, not white:

Spoiler


The Dallas garbage bags:

Spoiler


The '90/91 Nets tie-dye:

Spoiler


To be completely honest though, if there's no additions this year I can't even be mad because whoever was in charge of that portion of the game last year pretty much came in and dominated, right on down to allowing classic jerseys for classics and differentiating small tweaks over the years.
Man I used to have one of those home lightning bolt Ben Wallace jerseys. I lost it a few years ago, gone forever.

I miss it lol

Sorry guys, I wasn't trying to say it was a licensing thing. I was just trying to say that 2K added so many retro jerseys last year that I wouldn't be surprised if they just considered that aspect of the art to be done and completed for the time being.
