Three new teams have been revealed for NBA 2K16 which is due out in late September.

Those teams are the 1999-00 Toronto Raptors, 2000-01 Los Angeles Lakers, and 2007-08 Boston Celtics.

1999-2000 Toronto Raptors

Roster: Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, Charles Oakley, Antonio Davis, Doug Christie, Muggsy Bogues, Dee Brown, Dell Curry, John Thomas, Alvin Williams, Kevin Willis

2000-2001 Los Angeles Lakers

Roster: Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Derek Fisher, Rick Fox, Horace Grant, Robert Horry, Brian Shaw, Tyronn Lue, Mark Madsen, Ron Harper, Devean George, Greg Foster, Isaiah Rider

2007-2008 Boston Celtics

Basketball football manager would be sweet. I haven't played 15, but is trading still completely broken in that one? In 13 and 14, horrible teams drastically undervalue their future draft picks, so it makes putting together a stupid good team trivial. I think if they fix that, and make it so that the top 3 players in the draft consistently go 1, 2, 3 rather than spread out throughout the top 10 every single year (when even mediocre scouts can identify the top 3 easily for your team) they may be on to something. Also it's practically impossible for players on your team to get all star nods for some reason, which is kind of annoying in the later years. I went 79-3 in one season simulating every game and I had like 1 all star, no MVP, and no players putting up any significant numbers in any stat. Any top 5 player in the league should be able to do that easily every year, and end up a near lock for the hall of fame. It'd give me a lot more steam in the later years knowing my best players are rewriting scoring records and ending their careers with double digit all star appearances. Plus it really gives you a sense that a player is indispensable to your team when he's actually putting up numbers.

Trading was better in '15, but not exactly good. The myGM mode had a weird gimmick where you could spend points to do "mind control" tricks on other GMs, it was easy enough to ignore but sorta weird.

This just reminded me of something.

Glumslinger, I'm sure it's way too late to add this to this year's game, but could you pass along a game mode request to the higher ups? In one of the old NFL 2k games (after they partnered with ESPN) there was an exhibition mode where you basically chose (or it might have been randomized and we just cycled it until we got a combo we liked) a Gold, Silver, and Bronze player (ie: Peyton Manning, Aneas Williams, Torry Holt) and then the rest of the team was completely randomized out of players not in a tier. It was a lot of fun and my friends and I played that mode more than anything else so it would be pretty awesome if it came back.

For a while there was a glitch that if you trade for a draft pick right after the season but before the lottery, all draft picks reverted to one star worth. So swapping picks was insanely easy. I had like the top three picks one year abusing that.

I'm so excited to move a mediocre franchise to Seattle, go through ups and downs for 30 years, and subsequently move to Tulsa to establish a natural Oklahoma rivalry. I just want my virtual children to experience my heartbreak too.

What about the dumb exploits? (Half court charges, zig zagging on the 3 point line, spamming pause, baseline being a guaranteed dunk 90% of the time, holding charge under the basket on the park so you can't get boxed out for easy rebounds)

Did they fix online leagues to have CPU teams? Last year they had changed it so if you wanted a 30 team league you needed 30 humans. That was terrible.

Dallas Mavericks: Generations
I just read that 8 of the 12 new classic teams are now known.
12-13 Heat
03-04 Pistons
07-08 Rockets
99-00 Raptors
07-08 Celtics
00-01 Lakers
02-03 Mavs
99-00 Blazers

Really curious who the last 4 will be. I would expect a Nash Suns team if they didn't include the 03 Mavs. Anyone have any guesses? (I'm assuming the new teams will be from 99-00 or later)
edit: Maybe the 11-12 Thunder.

It'd be rule cool if in myPlayer, you could start as a European prospect at the bottom of a Euroleague bench.

09 Lakers would be my guess. 04 Timberwolves is also probably a neat choice.

One of those mid-late 2000s Jazz teams would also be pretty cool.
