Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insight: "Jordan Challenge" - Some Historic Teams Announced

anyone know if the classic teams will be usable in online ranked games

The list of historic teams is truly impressive and the option to play now ..sweet. I also would like to see the Phoenix Suns added to this list as they did play the Bulls in the Finals and being able to play as Barkley would be sweet as well. Heck they should also add the Sixer club that Barkley played on with Hershey Hawkins, R Anderson and the Orlando club with a young Shaq / Penny Hardaway/ Nick Anderson & 3D!!! Dennis Scott. But this could be added later using DLC or an unlockable item using codes. Truly looking forward to playing this game

I thought the same thing too. Even the two Bulls teams were similar. Wish they would use it on different teams/years but I won't complain.

Of course can't wait to play with the my Celtics of old, the Bulls and the Lakers...but just hit me the thought of dishing it out with Spudd Web and throwing it down with Nique...wow. Hope they have some of his dunks and style in the game, ok im wanting this game now. Like said before hope the gameplay matches all this greatness in the game

Honestly.....how the expansion 95/96 Raptors did not make the list is beyond me. They beat the Bulls during there historic 72 win season !!

This is a travesty.......

Just kidding.....LOL.

But all this classic team info is amazing !!!! Hopefully we can roll with classic teams online.

Great work guys !

He made the last shot which gave him a reason to ask for a replay if it counts or not, but he just walks away and accepts the defeat. The Man.

You know I wish they had one of the Pacers teams from the 90's. Rick Smits, Reggie, Mark Jackson(which prob wouldnt be possible cause of ea),Davis. Man It would make my geeked out-ness triple. Id prob end up playing 90's Pacers vs 90's knicks all day lol.

Is that a final list or are there still some more teams to be announced?

That is why he is my favorite player after all.

I really hope they have the classic stadiums too, and wheres the bad boy Pistons from the 80s, be awesome playing at the Silverdome for a Pistons Celtics game.

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insight: &quot;Jordan Challenge&quot; - Some Historic Teams Announced

We have to keep in focus that this is not a "legends" game. The inclusion of these classic teams is an added peripheral to what is a modern day, present NBA video game. There are a lot of potential classic teams and match-ups I'd like to see, but I understand that's just not going to happen.

After a while though, we are going to start seeing comments like, "Ok, how about present day teams. Please tell me you nailed their signature shots etc." I think 2K is wise in introducing this information in the earlier insights. This leaves room for further insights to touch on the core of NBA 2K11. I think it's a great start though. We still have the revamped broadcast presentation, plans for online etc.

It's gearing up to be a very exciting title.

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insight: &quot;Jordan Challenge&quot; - Some Historic Teams Announced

This is a great list so far. They need to have the 1999-2000 Lakers and the 1993-1994 Houston Rockets. The Dream vs Shaq in their primes... that wud be ****. Hopefully the old 90's teams r wearing the short shorts.

Did you even see a game from the 90s? Nobody wore short shorts except John Stockton.

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insight: &quot;Jordan Challenge&quot; - Some Historic Teams Announced

The Dream had already demolished Shaq when they met in the 1995 Finals. Im still alittle surprised that there are two Utah Jazz teams, but ohwell. Man I wish they had put either the 92 or 93 Knicks in the game. Those playoff series where great - I want to see some of this -
