    It is what it is, I can't do anything but show my disappointment with this selection.

    I'm one of 'those' guys who never jumped on the Heat/Bron bandwagon. Never liked 'em. Still don't.

    Would've taken the '97 Heat all day every day over 'that' team.

      I still want the 2006 Heat team. I do like that we get the back to back champs though.

        Hey, you're talking to a Spurs fan man....I will NEVER forgive that team....winning the chip the next year made it better but I have a certain disdain for that particular team even though I'm a fan of LeBron in general. I'm not thrilled about the entry but I do think it fits into this "best teams of the 2000's" theme they're going with...don't let the inclusion of one team ruin it for you. I won't let all these Lakers teams ruin it for me, lol

                  um....I really don't see why they are all of a sudden considered "classic". Come on 2k. Treat it like the Hall Of Fame Inductees. No team in this decade imo.

                    yea my mavs got screwed out of the 06 finals, but we got them back in '11. Miami likes pulling miracle championships on texas teams I guess, but our championships after the loss were both still kinda bitter sweet. I'd rather have won the way Miami won and get blown out in the rematch.

                      It's a good team. I understand the argumetns against it but every new team is a welcome addition to me.

                          I don't understand people trying to knock the inclusion of the '13 Miami Heat since they were an all-time great team - didn't they win 20+ games in a row (?) - with LeBron at his absolute peak (physical ability × mental approach × skillset) as an athlete. It'll be fun trying to beat that f***in' team that crush my spirit (and many other Spur fans) that fateful June.

                          That '08 Celtics team is also a no-brainer since it includes Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett all still in their prime plus Rajon Rondo, Kendrick Perkins, Tony Allen, Glen Davis (with a new cyberface, please) and Sam Cassell (Wizards Assistant/'94 Houston Rockets) on the disk. They also, like the '04 Pistons, were considered one of the greatest defensive teams ever.

                            12(!) teams getting added due to likeness rights of existing players (i.e. additional content which cost company no additional money)
                            Let's complain about 1 of them because we hate free additional content

                              Well I for one am hoping these new classic teams and old ones actually look updated. Where as Jordan actually looks like Jordan this time like he did in 2K11/2K12.

                                I've been really excited to see which teams were going to fill the limited number of new slots. Hearing one day's reveal is a team that's barely two years old is a little bit of a bummer. It's not something that warrants a meltdown, but I understand folks who aren't fans of their inclusion. I don't think we have to love every single addition by default.

                                I'm pretty much set with the knowledge that my 2004 Pistons are going to be included. To a degree, it's all a bonus from here. Even then, I'm still pulling for some other sweet surprises and selections. It's just, the 2013 Heat weren't one of them, particularly since we have virtually all the resources needed already to make that team on our own with limited effort (same uniforms, same court, many players with close-to-same ratings already in, etc.)

                                Some people don't consider anything later than 1990 to be worthy of the throwback treatment. More people have objected to post-2000's teams earning replication. Apparently my limit is 2013, ha.
