Does this mean we can longer take the classic teams into association mode through customizing conferences? Will the classic team rosters be editable once unlocked so we can add guys lie Barkley to the 84-85 Sixers? Please don't let this be the case. It would be a huge disappointment.

I don't think that is what that means. Unless something changed that I don't know about (entirely possible) the teams should be just as editable as last year.

Yeah, I don't see them taking a step back.

I don't either, I think I got a little worried about it as my initial reaction. I spent half the day arguing with Apple customer service on the phone, then I read the article. My first reaction came from an already angry mind, "great and now I can't play 2k12 the way I want" but yeah I can't really see them taking that ability away from us as it has to be part of the reason 2k11 sold 5 million+ copies.

I would be very disappointed if this was the case... can't see why they would take a step back after last year though.

Yeah as I think about it I am more sure he might have been mistaken. I even got them to allow us to use the classic teams in the playoff mode.

The Kotaku article seemed to indicate that the Classic teams would be available in a few different games modes, so that seems to correlate with what your saying.

Wait the Kings don’t get a rival squad? I would assume that means the Lakers are featured too?''01-02''

Thank U Lord that I sold NBA 2K11. Just 1 question, What about this new ft system they talk about at the beginning has no one shot a free throw yet?
