I didn't get the bulky argument at first but NBA players are built more like runners and swimmers than football players the more you look at it.



The legs definitely look better though.

Lets talk about it.

NBA players don't have wide waist lines

They aren't bulky they just have lean muscle..Even lifting weights, bulky is the last thing they go for.

The ones that do, shed more pounds before the summer ends because extra pounds is the last thing they need on their knees.

If you've ever worked out with an NBA player before you'd see they have serious lean muscle, much different than the average dude.

Most guys probably wear a pants size in the low 30's

Spoiler

That brings me to the shorts and unis. They are wide, but i can hardly find a picture where a player is moving and the shorts stay below the knee, not even the one you posted.

Kinda weird that its never looked at, ever.

good job 2k.
i dont think the bodies look bulky at all. if anything its because they look less toned than normal NBA players.
but if 2k toned the muscles a bit folsk would say they look to muscular.

I personally think its height proportion issue. if Deander and Derozen were standing up theyd be a few inchers taller than every other player.

This pic says it all. Westbrook is so stumpy in the game - he is considered "short" it seems. But that is by NBA standards. Looking at the above picture you can clearly see a lean, lankiness about him.


Long, lean, lanky.


I'd be encouraged if I knew someone at 2K were seeing/reading this stuff because you can't deny the fact after seeing some of the great examples being posted.

Anyone else worried that 2k17 will just be 2k16 with an Olympic Theme added to it?

No. I honestly don't think anyone else should be worried, either.

The tidbit they gave us about MyLeague shows us it's not just "2K16 with an Olympic theme"

When has 2K ever done something like give us the exact same game with a "theme" the next year?

Not to be negative, just observant... but it has happened before, so it could definitely happen again.

2k16 is basically 2k15, but with Spike Lee's story added to it... Imagine what other improvements they could have made if they didn't waste all that time making Spike Lee's terrible story?
