    I think the question remains, however, what makes us believe that 2K has to cut teams? And if they don't have to, then why would they? The teams are already made, they exist, there's no hint of them being a monetary burden, and no one is ever forced to use them.

    As a result, there's really only a positive benefit to their inclusion. The people who like using them (raising hand) get the joy from using them while the people who could not care much less about them, get the joy from not using them.

        I definitely wouldn't be happy, I like using bill Russell's Celtics even the wilt Jerry west Celtics, there's only like 5 teams from the 60's & 70's in the game anyway removing them serves no purpose

          You're joking about the TWolves right? I think that team and a prime KG was an anticipated addition. I for one am pumped to play with this team.

            Disc storage isn't infinite. They're going to run up against the limit at some point, most likely. They're already up towards 50GB as it stands right now.

            I'm definitely not saying I want the teams gone because I like them in there, but if there are things that'll go it'll be really old school teams first.

              Yea they should get rid of 98 lakers team and put in the 09 team. There's not much classic about them plus there's no nick van exel. The 2000 team is the classic one. And if you're gunna put in the 07 cavs why not the spurs. I mean they did actually sweep the cavs that year ijs

                I'd venture to say, in that case, there's many other routes they could go to carve out more space. In the scheme of things, I have doubts that single teams take up a ton of storage, though I cannot say with certainty. Even so, with 2K supposedly branching off into high school and college areas to some degree, and Euroleague, and with NBA 2KTV and the bazillion other heavy-but-not-totally-necessary inclusions, I'm not thinking cutting four classic teams is going to make much of a difference one way or another.

                If 2K came across a storage crisis and they had to cut all the fat, then yeah, I could see some classic teams getting the chop. However, there's no real hint that 2K is near that type of situation. As a result, removing a handful of teams seems to serve nothing more than a negative purpose for the consumer, in my opinion.

                  Not to be negative about people's hopes and expectations but did people really expect the addition of any 90s teams? It seemed pretty evident after the annoucement of the first few teams that 2K was going for post 2000 teams. The 99-00 teams we're the closest we were going to get to the 90s

                    Dang, I really wanted last year's lakers. Worst record in their history and kobe as their main man. Woulda made their fans happy since most of them are complaining about the lack of their historic teams available.

                        Well that Cavs team is the team that was LeBrons break out year.

                        I just don't think any 2000 team is classic tho.

                          You're probably right. They could even offer the classic teams as a day-1 digital download if they had to really cut some space.

                          Here's to adding more old teams!

                            I really don't like them adding the 06-07 Cavs. No one to play with really but a younger LeBron, doesn't spike my interest, if it does for other cool. At least there are a good amount of teams on the list overall that I want to play with. Good job overall 2k.

                              I have never really understood 2K's logic on some of the teams but surely there is one. Why have the 85 Sixers instead of 83 that is considered a top 10 all time team if you can't have Barkley?

                                Honestly, I just think they should change the adjective as to not give certain expectations. For example calling them retro teams as oppossed to legendary or classic.
