I only know Kurt Rambis' name because he coached the TWolves and the only thing I know about Cartwright is that he has some kind of weird FT shot or something like that. Sorry guys, I'm kinda young!
But from that description, he sounds like a Udonis Haslem or Joel Anthony type of player.

HOLY...F'IN....S**T, BATMAN! This gonna be the greatest game ever. I almost cried im so happy that SOOOOOO many LEGENDS are gonna be in this game. I...LOVE...LEGENDS (to see how much, go to the 2K Share and search Roster of Sparco3t. Greatest Legend roster of all time) Anyways, enough with the plug...........Just think:

*86-87
Lakers: Magic at his absolute apex. HOLY S**T!
Celtics: basically same as 85-86

*85-86
Celtics: same team from NBA 2K11
Hawks: Dominique at his athletic peak! I pray that he has the shaved head though. Just seemed more like a badass then...

*84-85
76ers: Doc, Moses, and Maurice on the decline, but DAMN. And a Rookie Chuckwagon. SWEET!
Bucks: Terry Cummings, Paul Pressy, and Sidney Moncrief at his peak. SWEET!

*71-72
Lakers: Wilt on the decline (but good) , OLD Elgin, and Jerry West on his basketball peak.
Knicks: aging Reed, DeBusschere, Bradley, and Lucas, BUT Clyde Frazier at his apex...SWEET!

*94-95
Knicks and Magic - Oh the two who couldnt be The Dream (get to him in a minute)...
Knicks: same team from NBA 2K11. Would have liked to had '90 Ewing (his apex) but this is good too.
Magic: Young Shaq and Penny...period. (my prediction, the most used "Legend" team on the game)

*90-91
Lakers: same team from NBA 2K11
Blazers: during peak of Drexler, Duckworth and Buck Williams to bang on the boards....Sleeper Team!

*92-93
Bulls: Jordan on back-end of his apex. (THE APEX OF ALL APEXES) Nuff said...
Hornets: Larry Johnson at his peak, rookie Zo, SLEEPER PLAYER: JR Reid

*97-98
Jazz: same team as NBA 2K11
Spurs: rookie Tim Duncan, Aging Admiral (hope they still make him look like a statue)

*95-96
Bulls: same team as NBA 2K11. (some say best team ever...muhh)
Sonics: same team as NBA 2K11. (please fix Kemp, his head isnt that big! And give him a better dunk package!!!!!!)

*70-71
Bucks: aging Big O and Lew Alcindor in second year...SWEET!!!(please have better looking Sky-Hooks!)
Lakers: Jerry West's basketball apex, Wilt basically averaging 20/20

*93-94
Rockets: Hakeem Olajuwon at his basketball apex...thats the only argument i need!
Nuggets: young, athletic team with Mount Mutumbo at his peak.

*64-65
Celtics: Russell and Sam Jones best statistical seasons with a star in the making soon to be named "Hondo"
Lakers: Elgin on the downside of his peak years, and "The Logo" on the upside of his.

*70-71
Lakers: Jerry West's basketball apex, Wilt basically averaging 20/20
Hawks: "The Pistol" as a rookie!!!, sharp-shooting Lou Hudson, and an aging Walt Bellamy

*88-89
Pistons: 6 guys averaged over 13ppg..true definition of TEAM
Bulls: the beginning of Jordan's peak years. (33/8/8..GOOD GAWD)

*97-98

Was Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf (spelling?)previously known as Chris Jackson on that Nuggets team also? If so that is awesome. That guy could shoot the lights out..

You are correct

[victory0901]

No love for the 2001-2002 Kings??? That was a very good team. That's what I am most excited about on the list and yes, I am a diehard Kings fan.

Another reason 1990-91 Warriors and 2001-02 Kings are in the game is that the team working on NBA @2K is out of California. I agree is would have been nice to have the 2001-2002 Lakers in there as well. But the list is awesome anyways!

LMAO wasn't that the guy (Rambis) that got knocked down and it caused a big fight?

I think he had switched over to Abdul-Rauf by the start of the '93-94 season (the team that's included). Sidenote, I dropped 49 with Chris Jackson using portlandblazer's '93 rosters last night.
