Maybe this year some of that will be corrected but for the most part you cant say it you have never thrown a pass that was a smart pass but it was still tipped

well, if it gets tipped, then maybe it wasn't a smart pass. or maybe it seemed like it at the time, but someone got to it. happens all the time on the court.. plays get disrupted.. it sucks because play stops...but good for the defense... and it's true to life..

Blocking/anticipating passing lanes, is playing smart defense IMO - regardless of what you think about playing off ball defense... (sometimes bordering on gambling, but thats a different topic...)

I don't think "tipped passes" in 2K is a problem. I think the problem is that since it's a video game, we expect passes to be automatic and hit like laser.

i gotta say i cringed when i saw the end of that clippers/pelicans game. the cpu rebounded the missed ft with 4.5 seconds left in overtime down 2 points. and instead of calling timeout griffin runs with it a few steps and throws up a one handed prayer from past half court smh...

Ugh, to the people complaining about the lack of BG music, it was obviously turned down in game to avoid any youtube copyright issues. Smart idea to avoid stupid take down notices. Relax

Having Steve Kerr doing color commentary really takes the immersion out of the presentation for me personally. I thought about what some of you have mentioned, about it being too far in development to replace him, but I saw the MIN vs NYK video and heard him mention Sam D being on 5 teams in 5 years. That would mean he'd have had to record his lines after he was hired after the NYK/DAL trade. I find it hard to believe that 2K couldn't replace him in time to have the game ready. This, plus Still having Clark Kellogg (Not an NBA analyst), No halftime show, No in-game "Around the league" highlights show, or a full NBA on TNT cast. I really wish 2K would expand the Dev Team & put forth the resources to truly create a Next GEN presentation for their flagship sports franchise. Just my 2 cents. Still excited to play.

Melo still does not have his beard and unable to edit/add/remove headbands. Oh and no half time show…disappointing. Was really excited for this but the little things are piling up

You're watching a YouTube video on a computer screen. The graphics will look 100% better when on your TV. I never understand how guys can judge graphics based on uploaded YouTube videos.

I remember Ld2K said the cheerleaders would stay around the court, so far haven't seen that...
Cpu seems well improved.

Especially considering how much youtube compresses the videos, even if they are direct captures.

Why are darks, especially black, so washed out (unis)? One of my pet peeves.
