1999-2000 Trail Blazers Playable in NBA 2k16?

Rejoice, Rip City gamers! Playing as Pip, Mighty Mouse, Sheed, Sabas and the Rasta Monsta once again could soon be a reality.

Chatter among fans on Reddit on Thursday suggests the likelihood of the 1999-2000 Trail Blazers as a playable legendary team on NBA 2k16 thanks to footage from Gamescom, a yearly video game convention in Cologne, Germany. The Mike Dunleavy-led squad is rumored to join the 2002-03 Dallas Mavericks, 2007-08 Boston Celtics and 1999-00 Toronto Raptors among others in this year's game.

Portland went 59-23 that season before falling to the Lakers in an infamous Game Seven collapse in the Western Conference Finals. 

NBA 2k16 will be released for XBOX One, XBOX 360, PS4, Playstation 3 and PC on September 29. Until then, you can still enjoy the 1999-00 Trail Blazers on NBA 2k for Sega Dreamcast.
