The 1986 Celtics are already included in NBA 2K.

Then let me say this, where can I find the whole Classic or Retro teams list for 2K16 currently?

Here's a rundown of each classic team included in NBA 2K15. My apologies if my first response came across a little too blunt: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...ster-list.html

In addition, the 2000 Raptors, 2000 Blazers, 2001 Lakers, 2003 Mavericks, 2008 Celtics, and 2008 Rockets have been announced as new additions so far.

Re: NBA 2K16 Adds '99-'00 Raptors & '07-'08 Rockets to the List of Classic Teams

Only teams I really want to see are...

86 rockets - twin towers
93 suns - Barkley
98 pacers? Can't remember right year
Knicks with spree, lj, etc... Can't remember year...
87 jazz - eaton
87 Mavericks -Harper, Blackmon, Aguirre, tarpley
87 sonics - Ellis, X, chambers
84 nuggets - issel

I guess the more teams the better but teams in the 2000's just aren't classics to me. Maybe I'm just too old...

What makes them not worthy of classic status? None of those teams are seeing the '08 Celtics or '01 Lakers. The '03 Mavs is one of the best offenses ever.

T-Mac was sorta washed by '08, Yao was a better player if we're being real. Knowing 2K, a they'll make T-Mac unstoppable lol.

What about the 1994 Seattle supersonics?

Meaning that teams a few years ago don't feel like classic teams to me. I'm older though I'm sure. As far as macs being 1 of best offenses ever that's highly debate able. The teams I listed above would all crush that team IMO... I can see the 99-00 raptors, or 01 lakers. Classic to me is 70's, 80's, 90's with a few early 2000's mixed in. I'm happy for new teams period for everyone. I just wouldn't play with any of them except the ones I listed above... That's just me though...

Edit: I take that back I love the classic Blazers with sheed and Sabonis. That was a great team that had the lakers in the 4th of game 7! Fun team!

That's a good choice but at the same time they lost to the Denver Nuggets in a huge "upset" so I don't know if 2k would rank them up there as far as putting them in the game.

Oh man I loved that team! I played the heck out of NBA live 94 that year with that sonics team! I just figured we got 96 sonics but the sonics had some great teams from 93-97! Eddie Johnson, Derrick Mckey, pierce, etc... Trader bob kept pulling his strings...

The only offense that compares is the '93 Suns, it's just not true statistical fact the '03 Mavs ARE one of the greatest offenses ever anchored by a top 30 play in Dirk and top 50 player in Nash.

The Knicks that reached the Finals in '99 were absolutely putrid offensively one of the worst teams to reach the Finals ever you're kidding right?

The early 2000's were a long time ago man

Many worthy hours spent playing with the SuperSonics on NBA Showdown '94. They had dunk packages and Kemp's bag of tricks was overflowing, obviously. Loved his off-the-backboard and rock-the-cradle.

Defense is part of the game too! Knicks had lj, Oakley, Ewing, and spree well on offense with Ewing it was a fun team and a helluva run! I'm pretty sure they were an 8th seed and then ran into a monster named Hakeem that year. The 87 rockets had twin towers 2 7 footers. I could care less about statistics that mavs team couldn't play with those older teams. It's called the eye test... All is debatable but if those mavs had to play the physical ball and hand checking back in the day they wouldn't have won a series against any of those teams...

But that team was fun to play with on older games so why not bring them and that arena back to these new machines,so we can re-visit that series. Plus their logo is in the pro am video.
