These are the Nine missing guaranteed players in which I expect to be added soon: Jeremy Pargo Charles Jenkins Isiaiah Thomas Jerome Jordan Gustavo Ayon Julyan Stone Jeff Pendergraph Sean Williams E'Twaun Moore I have sent this same list to both LD2K and Ronnie2K in hopes the insider will make the needed changes above and then start on the Art Changes needed.

2K give this man and a few other members on this board a job please.

Definitely what I expected from the update, you can never have high hopes with 2K's updates (learned that from 2K7/2K8). Its a somewhat decent update if you can calling that, but hey you got to think maybe one year they will get it right eventually(wishful thinking) lol.

Seriously thinking about not doing anything with the game until the Finals are over with, feels weird to start Seasons or Associations when some stuff is missing.

I have updated this list with each players contract status. 2K has previously stated that due to contractual restrictions by the NBA, they can't include any player who has a non-guaranteed contract. Therefore to alleviate the tension with some members here on the forum, I have marked who is guaranteed and who is not. Expect 2K to include the last of the remaining 2nd round players in the next update and possibly include Jeremy Pargo and Sean Williams. Outside of those players I can almost 100% assure you until the player has signed a fully guaranteed contract then they will Not be included in NBA 2K12.
I know it is a tough pill to swallow but there is always 2Kshare to download the missing CAP's in the future.
All in all this update actually was a positive one for the most part, granted there could always be more in each update, but we also could of been left with no updates at all.
I hope this reaches 2K sports and the changes are implemented in the next update, if not then at least this is a reference guide for roster makers.

This makes no friggin' sense. How is there a roster file on 2Kshare created by Extreme3600 that has all missing rookies WITH REAL CYBERFACES and missing FA(Wilson Chandler, J.R. Smith, etc.), with only a couple minor issues (no name change for Artest, Adelman not T'wolves coach, etc.). Why does 2K sell us the "NBA Today" feature and "dynamic updates for the most accurate NBA experience" when it's 2 weeks into the season they can't even put out an accurate roster.

[STLRams]

Well know NBA Today is even working, great we get a new roster but now NBA Today is down.

[MELO7NYK]

2K Server is down on PS3 -____- Wont even let me download the roster... Smfh

[Iceman86]

To all the people commenting on the "butthurt" being shown on the forums towards a another lackluster 2K update: It's not the fact that there are players missing who haven't played or there being some omissions, it's the principal. Don't tout your game to be the most accurate NBA experience when you can't even get the rosters right. 2K9 had perfect rosters from opening day to the NBA Finals. Way to regress 2K!!!
