NBA 2K13 will feature the 2012 Team USA as well as the 1992 Dream Team. During the demo, I was told that prior to this year Charles Barkley had been a very difficult get for the team to appear in the game, but all it took from Jay-Z was a phone call and Barkley signed on to be part of the project.

Moving onto the other features, the classic teams will all be returning this time around, albeit they will not be featured as prominently as they were in previous installments (i.e. being on the cover). There will also be a special Celebrity Team, featuring Justin Bieber, DJ Pauly D, Bow Wow, Sean Kingston and Vinny Guadagnino amongst others. Bieber even came in for motion capture sessions, although his 6’4 frame in the game may be just a BIT exaggerated.

Soooooooooooooooooooo pumped for 2k13, counting down the days

It's iconic New York though. It we be like Hawks changing to pink and line green, not going to happen.

It may be iconic, and the colours will probably never change, but I still don't like them.

 

[justlookingaround]

It's better without the black, at least.

Fair enough, it is strange though, orange and blue.

 

[lmach]

I love orange and blue as a colour combination.

 

[jethro11]

Orange and blue is one of my favourite colour combinations.

Glory hunter: Any fan who only follows a team because they are successful.

Yeah that's exactly what I am.

You, Joffa and your 70,000 mates.

My family has always gone for United. You go for Liverpool lmach, which is also a big 4 club.

 

[justlookingaround]

Wait... so does this mean I can brag about supporting a championship league team...?

I'll see myself out.

EFA.

The term glory hunter confuses me, I support Man U and the Lakers, you know why? Because their successful, I have no reason to support a team in those leagues who play poorly, and when I started following the two sports, they were the top teams (still are). It's not like the Crows, Double Blues, Redbacks were I have reason to support them.

EFA.

You're a life member now? When were you awarded that?

Dad signed me up for a Hawthorn membership a week after I was born.

In saying that, the term 'glory hunter' shouldn't be applied in the AFL, as teams don't stay up the top winning trophies regularly like they do in other sports (i.e. Soccer, Basketball, Baseball etc.).

(Apart from Geelong jump-on fans from the 'Dynasty'. You would understand what I meant if you lived on the Gold Coast for 5 years.)

Liverpool haven't won a title in 22 years and have been really struggling, but I'm a glory hunter...

I was referring to the fact he supports Man U, not Collingwood.

You're a dick lmach. Just because you're team is absolute crap.

The amount of people that jumped on Brisbane in the early 2000s was ridiculous.
