By using the online feature with your PS3 or Xbox. I'm pretty sure users will create some Awesome Classic Teams that may have been overlooked.

Also looking forward to seeing a 1997 Washington Bullets team with CWeb, Juan Howard, and Rod Strickland.

First three teams: 1992 Dream Team, 2001 Lakers, 2008 Redeem Team.

Re: NBA 2K12 Classic Teams You Plan on Creating or DLing

The other day I was trying to think of the perfect NBA season for 2K12. By this, I mean which year do you guys believe would benefit the most from 2K's infusion of additional classic teams and courts? I think there's a pocket between 1994 and 1996 that'd be just right. Depending on which mid-90's year we roll with, teams like Detroit, Chicago, Houston, San Antonio, Orlando, Los Angeles, Boston, New York, Charlotte, Portland, Denver, Golden State and possibly the likes of Philadelphia, Atlanta and Cleveland could all essentially have their accurate jerseys and home floors. That could make for an incredibly in-depth classic Association mode.

In regards to the rest of the clubs (such as the Washington Bullets), I think it's going to depend upon whether more retro jersey options will be provided. It surely seems the focus in terms of retro things was on the Legend mode, so it wouldn't surprise me to see retro jerseys left alone (with the exception of those added for the sake of the mode).

I plan on recreating the 1999 Spurs along with every team from the seasons 2001-2011. I did something like this for 2K11 but I never finished all the teams and CP's weren't perfect either. I did all teams from 2002-2008 never really got past that with work and school also taking up my time.

92 Dream Team is a Must. Hopeully Barkley signs next year. Seems like each year 2K is getting a bit closer to getting him. Being that next year marks the 20 Year Anniversary of the DREAM TEAM, I pray to the gaming Gods that they will give us an offical Dream Team Squad in 2K13. Those 2K11 Fiba Mods on the PC are SICK!!!

Also, NBA 2K has already provided us with more than we could ask for in terms of legend and retro perks, but I do kind of wish they'd add some early 90's Sonics uniforms. With the inclusion of the '91 Warriors and '94 Nuggets, an even younger Shawn Kemp is begging to make a comeback just to great Alton Lister at the door (or Chris Gatling).

Nearly each team he dunks on in this clip below will be included in 2K12:

Now all of the sudden I'm kind of fiending for an old Tacoma Dome court art.

Re: NBA 2K12 Classic Teams You Plan on Creating or DLing

Since I appear to be one of the only guys who does classic rosters for PS3, suppose I'll be doing a lot of them, may go as far back as 1980, but will start with either 95-96 or 90-91.

Re: NBA 2K12 Classic Teams You Plan on Creating or DLing

Im a HUGE Kemp fan. I hope they give us more Reto jerseys this year. I miss the old Sonic Jerseys from Key Areana (pre-reconstruction). 94 Sonics was one of my favorite teams of all time. 63-19, up 2-0 on Denver, SMDH. Mutumbo laid out on the floor holding the spalding to the heavens @ the end of OT screaming "Oh My GAAAAWWWD" in that deep azz cookie monster voice still huants me till this day.

But anyway, I agree. Kemp needs a new face, body, and Dunk Package. Most Athletic Big Man that I have ever seen to grace the hardwood.

Having the Dream Team or the Redeem Team would be sick

Ugh, man I was at that game (The Coliseum)...brutal! Still hurts! I'm with you hoping those jerseys....and more retros in general. Without a current team anymore, it makes me want to relive the past even more. The '96 team was nice, but I would love to create the (Ellis, Chambers, X-man, Nate) team, and the squad that lost to the Nuggets as well. We'll see, I have a feeling they might not make it, but ya never know...

Re: NBA 2K12 Classic Teams You Plan on Creating or DLing

I feel your pain Rasco. Seattle had some of the best home crowds ever. Especially during the Playoffs. Watching that atmosphere from the tube, i could only imagine what that building was like live. That X-Man Ellis, Chambers Sonics team was exciting as well. If they give us an assortment of Retro jerseys this year, the possibilities will be ENDLESS!!!

One of my favorite basketball atmospheres of all-time. Each incredible play made it feels as if that place may implode upon itself. The fans always seemed right on top of the action, a near claustrophobic feeling.

Re: NBA 2K12 Classic Teams You Plan on Creating or DLing

True indeed. And lets not forget about their Mascot "Squatch" ropping down from the cieling of the areana and landing midcourt prior to home team intros during the Playoffs. LMAO!! That building was CRAZY!! With the PA system belting out "SUUUUUPPPEEEERRR!!!" and the crowd replying with a beastly "SOOOOOOONNNICCCSSSSS". Repeat 3x after a Payton to Kemp alley from halfcourt. Damn.....those were Awesome times
