    Re: NBA 2K16 Adds '00-'01 Lakers & '03-'04 Pistons to the List of Classic Teams

    Truly hoping one of the following Cavaliers teams is featured at some point 2007 or 2009

      All shaping up to be a good selection, despite the fact I'm more of an 80's/90's man myself, but still am looking forward to the new additions, especially T-mac and Carter!!

      That said, (Yeah, I'm gonna be that guy) It'll REALLY take away from the immersion again if they haven't fixed the cyberface authenticity (if PC modders can do it, 2k can do it, there should be no excuse) and the god awful uniforms (Skin tight, and terrible logo/number placement)

      We all know they can't scan the legends faces, but the below picture should illustrate what can be achieved without that technology. There shouldn't be an excuse in my eyes.

        Who is that on the right, because that's a blue and yellow shirt?

          While I agree since they have way better tools and resources, you have to remember they have time constraints. I thought about this myself and a modder can take as much time as needed to get a face "just right" while a game artist would need to pump out a number of faces/art files in a certain time limit. That takes away from quality.

            To be fair, they've had more than a year now with next-gen technology and I'm sure getting a face right that was solid on old-gen, is not that hard to copy and polish it. I understand they cannot have the same detail as new players, but at least get them right like in 2k12. Also they should really look at the teams they chose and have players look like themselves back then, not when they retired!

              It's Jordan playing for the nuggets. An absolute terrible face/player model on ps4. You'd think of all players they'd focus on getting right, it'd be Mike.

                The word 'easy' regarding these things is thrown around way too much IMO

                I do agree though, I was saying this yesterday....I hope the likenesses are at least close..

                Like will we get the MYTEAM versions of T-Mac and Yao? Or will they be redone?

                  The only Pacers team that might have a chance is either the 03-04 or 04-05 teams. At least Miller was in the twilight of his career, and 2K Sports can use a generic 3PT specialist.

                  Of course, it's not a true Pacers classic team without Miller. Period.

                      Nice additions! Damn at this rate will there be any classic teams from the 80's or 90's in 2K16?

                            The 04 Lakers better not be in for so many reasons:

                            Already plenty of great Lakers teams.
                            Already have multiple Prime Shaqs and prime Kobe, Payton, and Malone as well.
                            That team just wasn't that great. Should not have made the finals.

                              No way, only 02-03 Spurs and 03-04 Wolves make sense. 00-01 Bucks were nothing special compared to other teams, 01-02 Nets had the worst players to be in a finals ever (how they made it, I have no idea) and 06-07 Suns over 04-05?? No way

                                If they add a classic Spurs team they'd be the only ones with the same present day core...

                                Kind of nuts...
