NBA 2K17 League Expansion Cities Revealed

[WMoore75]

I'm moving The Grizzlies back to Vancouver...changing Memphis back into the Sounds and moving them to the Eastern Conference, bringing back the Seattle Sonics and Cincinnati Royals.

I'm disappointed no one seems to be asking if you can have more than two uniforms (home/away) for expansion teams. Real teams have more than two uniforms to their name.

Otherwise, this is old news.

In 2k16 myLeague, you could edit uniforms for relocated teams anytime you want, so I bet that will carry over to Expansion Teams as well. I've played 11 games with my relocated team and 7 different uniforms. I know, not realistic, but fun!

Re: NBA 2K17 League Expansion Cities Revealed

Also am I the only one who plans on running a separate MyLeague with all college teams?

Nope, I will too. And I'm expecting you to do all the logos and arena work for me. Ha ha, just kidding.

Man, I was hoping Vegas would be one of the teams with full expansion support.

LOL man I wish I could. I'm not as talented with stuff like that. But if you need a deck built or basement redone I'm your guy.

That was my first thought.or maybe a Euroleague. So you can create a league with LESS THAN 30 teams. I have not seen that answered anywhere. I thought the custom league was 30 - 36 teams

as close to college hoops I can get

I would love to have an enclosed outdoor play pen for my cat, but I can't afford anything.
If a few months pass and no one has created 30 college teams, I'll do logos, arena and uniforms for 30 college teams and upload them.

"We found out about the rules committee within MyGM and MyLeague during the NBA 2K Community Event. After every season in MyGM and MyLeague, the rules committee will meet to determine if there will be any changes.

It takes a certain percentage of approval from the league’s owners to pass a rule. According to Erick Boenisch, the mode’s executive producer told me you can’t turn off the rule change process, but you can override any of the decisions you don’t like in MyLeague.

If you don’t like a passed rule, you just make it unapproved and vice versa."


THIS! I wonder how big some of these changes are going to be.

Were we supposed to get one today ? That'd be about time, only 10 days away.

They never announced a media/marketing schedule, but I'm sitting here like. . .

Re: NBA 2K17 League Expansion Cities Revealed

I'm hoping that we could switch those names around and still have the commentary support. Like I would be ok with the Vancouver Lions for instance, but the Vancouver Ravens sounds disgustingly bad for a team name. I don't know who thought of some of these but wow.

Another option I'm hoping would work is say take an existing team like Memphis and rebrand then to give Vancouver back their Grizzlies name, and since it's already a used name within the game there's a chance that the commentary would be able to use it for them too? IDK I really like how they have the premade teams all set up with commentary, just wish they made the names better is all.

Re: NBA 2K17 League Expansion Cities Revealed

So from year one in my GM can I create Sonics and be the sonics???

Was bummed last year when it didn't work that way....

I can expand the league In year one?

Anyone know how the finer points work of expanding league and divisions etc? (In the game I mean)

Also would like to know about Jerseys like others have asked.

I remember reading somewhere before that they added adio support for em but couldn't use them as one of the 10 pre made teams

anywho that means they'll say the sonic name and such with your own picked re-design

What I wana see is all the jersey's and such for the pre-made ones, didn't like how custom teams were only home or away in 16 and would like to pcik ahead of receiving the game

I'm confident I saw/heard FranchisePlay saying you couldn't have less than 30 but you could rebranded the 30 you do have.
