NBA 2K13 Video - All Jerseys and Team Ratings

[JerseySuave4]

Just saw the Nuggets have yellow unis that look like Marquette. Hopefully they get those in there. It's funny that now that the Nets are finally in Brooklyn they add the grey alts that say New Jersey. Couldn't get them all those years they were actually in New Jersey.

I noticed some new retro jerseys they added. If they were in 2k12 I didn't notice them before and my apologies.

No new alternates (Thunder, Spurs, Nuggets, Trail Blazers, Cavs, Sixers, Kings... per the NBA catalog, Clippers and Warriors were tentative for alts as well). Like last year, these will probably be released in a roster update, and those without the 2K Insider roster will be screwed. Some of the 1990s jerseys are in (Bucks, for example) and some aren't (Raptors). Either way, they should add the whole jersey set, not just the one that the team chooses to wear with the Hardwood Classics!

Never seen those Raptors camo ones before. Interesting.

The new alts are locked in a code.

Shouldn't the 00-01 sixers be rated higher. and the Thunder are rated too high. They're rated above the 96 bulls for pete's sake.

wonder what that code section indicates...i'd love to roll with those classic raptors uniforms, and why we can we only access the suns 90's uniform for away? when i played i didnt see the home jersey retro, just the away.

I could obviously be way off base, but team ratings in 2K have always seemed to be created by the sum of their individual parts. This means, if a team won 50 games in 2012 with all mediocre players, they'd still be ranked below a 38 win team full of above average players, because the sum of those above average player's ratings would eclipse those of the other squad's.

2001 Philly may have gone to the Finals, but there wasn't really a lot there in terms of super talent. Yes, Aaron McKie did a fine job, as did George Lynch and others. And surely, Allen Iverson and Dikembe Mutombo were outstanding. But they surely weren't loaded; quite the opposite in fact. On the flip side, OKC seems to have a high number of above average ball players. Durant is super duper, as is Westbrook. Then the next tier also features very good to great players (Harden, Durant). In contrast, the '96 Bulls go Pippen and MJ, but then it's an offensively deficient Dennis Rodman next in line, and things only dwindle from there. Outstanding team achievement for the Bulls, but their collective individual ratings aren't made for video game team overalls.

I think there's a good chance the home dinosaur Raptors jerseys will be unlocked the moment Toronto wears them for the first time this upcoming season. Also, the black Suns alternates make an appearance (but not the home & away) because again, the black alternates are going to be official retros for Phoenix this year. That doesn't explain why 2K couldn't have gone out on their own merit and added the other Suns jerseys, but it does explain why they at least included the alt. They've always been pretty on the ball with official NBA retros.
