There are some notable omissions, like Charles Barkley, Reggie Miller, Rasheed Wallace, Moses Malone, Anthony Mason, Gilbert Arenas, Juwan Howard, Antwan Jamison, Marcus Camby, Lamar Odom, and several others. Likely due to licensing issues and not having permission to use them in the game.

[Data West]

I'm bummed about no Reggie

 

[Dougieflesh]

1. No Barkley or Malone is depressing.
2. You're a bum if you pick the Lakers online.

 

[Not Drake]

That Sonics team is my main.

 

[jtb]

did they have to negotiate the likenesses individually or something? Those are some notable omissions

 

[friskykillface]

Antoine Walker got a check from 2K
The wig on my switch 😎

Warriors got Wilt, their lack of center is solved
Steph/Rick
Klay
KD
Mullin
Wilt
D:

 

[Crawl]

Yeah.. Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp never played in OKC. Stop sharing the history.

 

[B.O.O.M]

Small correction, Shaq is starting for lakers not on Bench

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Small correction, Shaq is starting for lakers not on Bench

I had copy-pasted the Bench header one line too early, fixed!

You're a bum if you pick the Lakers online.

Could be worse, they have OVR 99 prime Kareem on the Bucks and not the Lakers!

 

[prag16]

I'm bummed about no Reggie

But John Starks made it in. As a Knicks fan, Reggie Miller was probably my most hated player throughout the early to mid 90s...

 

[dragonyeuw]

Dat Lakers squad....

 

[Crazy Diamond]

Conley with that 87 rating when he's easily better than Marc Gasol... 🙄 No respect.

 

[manzoman96]

Seattle getting lumped in with the Thunder team is straight up disrespectful. So is Wilt only being ranked 93 on the Sixers.

 

[ianpm31]

Really hope 2k and Reggie Miller can get a deal done one day. I think him and Charles are holding out for the same reasons

 

[i3allistic]

That Sonics team is my main.

hope they will have the OG Sonic Uniform too ....


dat Sac Kings team stacked too, white chocolate and CWeb


da Dubs tho ....

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Seattle getting lumped in with the Thunder team is straight up disrespectful. So is Wilt only being ranked 93 on the Sixers.

They gave prime OVR 99 Wilt to the Warriors since that covers both the Philadelphia and GS squads. At least 76ers Wilt is higher rated than Lakers Wilt!

 

[mike6467]

No Mutombo on the Nuggets? Seems odd.

 

[Dougieflesh]

hope they will have the OG Sonic Uniform too ....


dat Sac Kings team stacked too, white chocolate and CWeb


da Dubs tho ....

If Wilt ever fouls out or goes to the bench then LOL at their lack of Center depth.

 

[phanphare]

gerald wallace was robbed

 

[XiaNaphryz]

gerald wallace was robbed

Probably licensing/permission related.

 

[Nori Chan]

god damn lakers squad too stronk

 

[Rockin' Ranger]

I know there's not much to choose from, but ugh at LaVine on the Wolves all time team. Guess they couldn't get Gugliotta or Tony Campbell and weren't willing to just put Butler on without him actually playing a game for the team. Also kinda weird that Garnett is at C instead of PF with Towns at C.

god damn lakers squad too stronk

At least the Celtics can throw out Russell, McHale and Garnett to try and stop them.

 

[Stabby McSter]

Conley with that 87 rating when he's easily better than Marc Gasol... 🙄 No respect.

i love conley, but nah

 

[Crazy Diamond]

i love conley, but nah

And I love Gasol. But the dude gets pouty then disappears too often.

 

[Shin K Dash]

I'm never gonna be able to play as Chuckster huh?....

also it's Hal Greer, not Har Greer

EDIT: holy shit lakers...

 

[Sorbete]

No Reggie and Durant on Warriors' bench haha

 

[adj_noun]

Seattle Supersonics

Sigh ;_;

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

I think this will get me to buy a basketball game at launch.

 

[JustenP88]

Yo where the hell is Brandon Roy?

 

[superdeluxe]

Sonics. Bruh. 😒

14 of 15 players on 'all time okc' team were members of the sonics organisation. Only one wasn't

 

[shanafan]

Reggie still bitter from Tayshaun's block?

 

[JoeFu]

How the hell is Shawn Bradley staring for the Mavs. The disrespect on Tyson... How are they rated the same wtf

I'd also put Damp in over Haywood. What a weird lineup for the Mavs.

 

[FallingEdge]

Sharif Abdur-Rahim

love it

 

[Bread]

Looks like they actually put effort into the player models this time, hopefully that's true for everyone on this list. Nothing worse than putting in a legend and it looks like a 2k created character with a bald head.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Sonics. Bruh. 😒

14 of 15 players on 'all time okc' team were members of the sonics organisation. Only one wasn't

The text list I copied the rosters from didn't even list them as Seattle, just OKC. I added that in there. People forgot.

 

[mordecaii83]

I'm surprised they have Durant on the bench for the W's, I'm assuming it's because he's only been there one year. Also a little surprised Klay Thompson is starting.

My former hometown team was the Pacers, and it's depressing to see how weak their "all-time" team is lol.
.

Edit: Just wanted to point out, does any other team have 4+ of their current players on the all-time list?

 

[XiaNaphryz]

I'm surprised they have Durant on the bench for the W's, I'm assuming it's because he's only been there one year. Also a little surprised Klay Thompson is starting.

I think if Mitch was a bit higher rated, he'd have taken that starting spot from Klay.

 

[shiftplusone]

I'm glad the all time Mavericks team is like just an above average team and could evenly match most of the regular current teams

Cuban da God

How the hell is Shawn Bradley staring for the Mavs. The disrespect on Tyson... How are they rated the same wtf

I'd also put Damp in over Haywood. What a weird lineup for the Mavs.

Yeah I didn't get that shit either. Weird choices

 

[J-Skee]

Do current players get different ratings if they're on the All-Time team? No way LeBron is 99 on the regular Cavs roster.

EDIT: Okay, ratings definitely change. Vince Carter is an 89 on the Nets, but a 95 on the Raptors.

I'm pretty sure they use whatever the "peak" rating for that player would have been at any point while they were on the team.

If that's the case though, I can spot a few players that seem like they're rated a bit too low...

 

[Kevtones]

91 for Stockton is BS. Dude was one of the best pure points ever and nasty as fuck.

89 for Lillard is too low.

No Brandon Roy??!

 

[Zukkoyaki]

Sharif Abdur-Rahim

love it

I like you

 

[ThirtyPlus]

As someone who is really disappointed in the current state of the NBA, this is right up my alley.

 

[jordan0386]

That dude who has like 4 million downloads of his custom rosters on ps4, will hold us down with some decent CAPs of missing players.

Should be fun.

 

[WildEagle18]

Bosh with those beautiful dread. Its gonna be fun playing with the Raptors. Cb4, vc, lowry, derozan and davis ✌ Shame Anthony Parker wasnt included one of the most solid 3 & D wing Raptors had. TJ Ford should have made it in as well 🤔

 

[EagleEyes]

Are these teams gonna be playable online?

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Could be worse, they have OVR 99 prime Kareem on the Bucks and not the Lakers!

Thats actually correct. Kareem statistically peaked in his 3rd season in Milwaukee.

Lakers Kareem seems a bit low though.

 

[J-Skee]

Are these teams gonna be playable online?

Everybody is picking the Lakers if so.

 

[BeautifulMemory]

Why can't we pre order physical copy of the game on Amazon
