Re: 2016 USA Basketball Men's National Team and 1992 Dream Team Coming to NBA 2K17

This is just my personal opinion but can someone tell me why people are so keen on the inclusion of classic teams in general as well as the 1992 dream team? The players look no better than the ones you can create yourself, sometimes worse. I just don't get the hype of playing as a team that looks around about similar to their real life counterparts.

Serious question; What era of ball did you grow up in? If it's the 90's and back, you should understand why we clamor for classic teams so bad.

Being able to play with "authentic" players, jerseys, arenas, signature moves, attributes, and other stuff like that makes classic teams one of the best parts of the game.

I only ask because Iv'e noticed most people who don't care for classic teams only started watching the NBA in the past 10 years or so.

Straight up truth, Gosens.

I'm an 80's and 90's hoops guy and there's nothing greater than being able to use legendary teams from that era.

Agreed on the young bloods not really caring so much about the inclusion of the classic teams - it's a generational thing I guess, as I could care less for today's current teams, I play exclusively with the classics. If they removed that aspect, I'd never buy 2k again.

Why wouldn't you want classic teams? Test old teams versus current. Mix legends within today's league. Create crazy situations (e.g. what if Jordan joined Ewing in New York?)

I get that there are a ton of issues regarding their faces and accessories, but I'd still much rather have them how they are than not have them at all.

Plus its pretty darn cool to play with classic squads on these modern day systems. Its show a big difference oppose to playing with these classics from a 16 bit engine.

I wonder why 2k got rid of the old 60/70/80s style tv presentation they had when they first introduced classic teams. I loved playing with the grainy filters. Maybe it wasn't well received, but I absolutely loved it.

Staying on topic. These are shoes I think bird wore, but can we get this model in shoe creator please...

People are overreacting to that screenshot imo. When was the last time 2k ever released an NBA game that didn't look up to scratch compared to other sports titles in that same year?

Don't worry about it.

So this could be pretty big for getting Charles Barkley in the game yearly and on more than just a Dream Team roster.

Man, if they give us the correct shoes and attire for the Dream team/retro teams - I'll be on cloud nine.

Won't hold my breath though....

I edited some reebok pumps in 2k16 and they looked great. I added them to all 80s 70s teams. I have a hard time playing vs teams that are all wearing generics.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnn I have been praying since nba 2k11 for something like this to happen. Keeping my fingers crossed so we can all run with Sir Charles on 2k.

This is so long overdue, but everything happens for a reason. At least we are moving in the right direction.

Hypothetically speaking : What if Barkley and Jordan joined Ewing in New York? Talk about creating a super team/evil empire.

Exactly. These are the great possibilities with legends.

I was just coming to post this. Chuck has always says the reason he doesn't want to be in the game is because NBA doesn't take care of retired players. Now that is taken care of, what would still be holding him down?

It's the same on wrestling forums.... Young pups asking for legends to be taken out etc....

No respect the youth of today!

Classic teams make this game...

I wish the would bring back the grain and presentation effects too!

And please can I second getting those Converse in the game and classic reebok pumps.

I have a nice little collection of reebok pumps myself... Without pumps on I'm a chump with them on I'm a champ.....

Pumps make the player
