2K Sports announced and detailed the 2K Heroes mode during the GameStop Expo livestream. You can watch the archive here, starting at roughly the 1:33:18 mark.

2K Heroes mode is a charity driven online head to head mode, exclusive to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The team that wins the most from launch until All-Star Weekend, will receive a donation for that person's charity of choice from 2K.

If you recall, back in November of 2013, Michael Jordan selected four guys he'd run with in a pick-up hoops game. 2K Sports ran with that in their 2K Heroes mode. They selected 8 players to form their pick-up teams. Those players include Shaq, David Robinson, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Michael Jordan, Clyde Drexler, James Worthy, and Steph Curry. You can see their respective squads in the screenshots below.

Who would you run with?

Looking more and more like NBA2k15 for Xbox360 and PS3 is full of Gimic Modes. Nothing of substance yet. Very disappointing.

Ronnie2k-5 versions of shaq?? Actually I think the last gen versions are almost perfect in a sense, they still hold graphically well and gameplay is still great even better in some areas to next gen. I love the gimmic modes, Jordan era, showcase, lebron ptg, wish there was more with different players

i just missed it, can someone explain what this is

A mix of 7-8 legends/current players made teams picking their starting 4 (Each legend/current player is included on their team making a total of 5)based on players from NBA History-Present. That legend/current has a charity they wish to donate to. Depending on which player's team wins the most online 2k will donate to that player's chosen charity.

Make sense since the bulk of the development time was probably spent on current gen or "new" gen systems and porting that over to PC. Why people are surprised by this is beyond me, though. What do y'all think happened with NBA 2K after the transition from XBox/PS2 to XBox 360/PS3? Nothing but simple roster updates, added rookies and cosmetic changes where necessary.
