NBA 2K16 Trailer - Livin' Da Dream, A Spike Lee Joint

[Paul21694]

I'm gonna play the **** out of this mode because I've seen some awesome stuff from it and being called Frequency Vibrations doesn't bother me at all. Call me Amadeus Farmington, whatever you want. As long as the gameplay is solid and I can carve out my own path (seemingly, in far more ways than in the past with the endorsements and connections off day stuff) then I couldn't care less. Once it gets to the meat and potatoes of playing basketball, this game is going to be one of the best sports simulation experiences our eyes have ever seen.

'I'm not playing this' foh

I liked how in Blitz the league 2, as you played through the career your character was referred to as "Franchise" You could change your name to anything, but during the cutscenes, you were known as "Franchise". The name is a little weird, but if you are saying you wont buy the game because you dont like the name, its your loss...

Would you really want Marky Mark coming knock on your door?

They never have my last name in the game. i need someone from the Showers family to make it to the nab lol.

I still want 2K to confirm if we can play in high school and college or is it just cutscenes. no one has confirmed it yet. or did I miss it?

good gawd i hope it's this.^
"it's just a nickname..." they say.
your're right; having choice is bad.
doesn't belong in a mode called "my" career.

...You ARE aware that there's this other group that did a song called that about 20 or so years earlier, right?

Ask Kevin Love about it. I'm sure he'd know.

Anyway...as dumb and stupid as that nickname is, this mode, combined with all the other on-court improvements made this year, is five steps forward and one step back. That's a net profit. I'll take it.

Not like it's game-breaking, like pulling down 30 rebounds a game.

It IS strange that they'd only show him on the Brooklyn Nets, though...especially since Spike Lee's a big Knicks fan, AND the Knicks had the fourth pick this year. Putting him on the Knicks for the trailer is actually PLAUSIBLE!

See this is the problem

Shouldn't you be here to clear up the confusion instead of continuing to beat that marketing drum of hype?

Like Im sure you can change the name in the game, but even with these knuckleheads freaking out over nothing, you come in giving riddles like the riddler instead of straight up telling them so.

It would make them be quiet real quick

Just tell them so
