NBA 2K13 Roster Analysis 4/16/13

Yet another pointless NBA 2K13 roster update by 2K Sports that accomplishes next to nothing. The only news of merit is that Kobe Bryant is injured and won't be usable until Injuries are presumably removed in the final roster after the NBA Finals.

Player Edits: 0 (Get ready for my article that rips into detail how piss-poor 2K's ratings are this year)
Missing Players: 18 (Including Mickael Gelabale, Chris Johnson, Shavlik Randolph who play 10+ mpg)
Missing Coaches: 1 (Lindsey Hunter has been missing for 3 months)
Incorrect Lineups: 3 (76ers, Bobcats, Suns have been inaccurate for 6 weeks)
Inaccurate Injuries: 5 (The only thing 2K cares about and they still can't keep up)
