    Zo looks PERFECT.

    Bulls don't look very changed, maybe a new facial model on BJ...

    Where is Muggsy's little mustache?
    -elcamero.

      I'm not sure we ever see player teeth in 2K, but how cool would this be:



      Also, these have to be two of the fullest classic rosters in the game. J.R. Reid and/or Mike Gminski is missing on Charlotte's side but both of those guys played a small amount of games that year according to research. Trent Tucker's absence has been talked about for Chicago but again, his likeness was pretty darn well recreated in 2K11. The created version of Tucker is definitely awesome enough to make ends meet.

        Awesome! Yeah, Zo looks perfect and BJ looks better.

        I hope the poses will be more varied when the game is released.

              Alright, so I'm pretty sure I've mentioned my 1996 NBA Encyclopedia CD-ROM on this site once or twice already. This used to be one of my favorite clips from the disc. It's grainy, but it's full of goodness. The P.A. announcer and the entire second highlight sums up that Hornets era perfectly for me.

              ELLLLLLLLLL JAYYYYYYYYY (from Muggsy Bogues!)

              I usually just replay from 13 seconds on forward over and over again.

              Also, over/under on number of steps taken before Dell released that ball? 17?

                You can see the players' teeth in 2K11.

                        I'm not expecting a whole lot of signature animations coming from the Hornets, as they're just opposing team classic fodder for the '93 Bulls in a way, but wouldn't Larry Johnson be a fun one to really dig in and re-create. It's going to be awesome using them as is, but signature post-dunk celebrations for Kemp and LJ would be next level.

                            Yeah I guess we have to play with him how he played in real life. What I've seen he didn't shoot much. He mostly penetrated and kick it out or just passed it. From my recollection of course.

                            I have some games from the 95 playoffs between the Bulls and Hornets. Gonna do some research!
