If you look at the video Haywood was using turbo, but was not locked into a set animation. There are physics in the game so there will be contact and thats exactly what happened. Haywood used turbo made contact with wade while trying to steal the ball. The end result was D-wade losing the ball. Lets not forget the game is on casual so there was no foul called. Guys really need a bigger TV or Monitor because i just zoomed in 160% and didn't any canned animations.

Brendan Haywood w/ turbo still should not be even close to D Wade. I don't wanna be playing as a rookie Jordan and have Robert Parish chasing me down poking the ball away LOL. Is there a speed threshold setting like NCAA football or Madden? That'd be an idea

Or just get rid of the turbo button all together also like Ncaa football.

A sprinting Haywood shouldn't be able to catch up a jogging Wade? WTF, this guy isn't Oliver Miller. A basketball court is only so big.

I've been trying to keep up with this thread but it's hard so I apologize if this has been mentioned but, do the names on the backs of the jerseys look small to anyone? They appear scrunched and I'm not sure if that's the way they're going to be in real life this year or what.

One thing I still was hoping to see...More explosiveness from elite players like Wade. In the very first video around the 1:20 mark, it seems like he spins his wheels for a split second when it should be certain type of burst only he and a few others can do.

Another minutes worth of footage from Gamescon...

LBJ's new jumper looks solid to me. Looks like the player released it early though so it's hard to tell for sure.

Can't wait to see some sim footage from guys that actually know how to play. You can see obvious improvements, but it's just hard to appreciate them when guys are running around mindlessly on offense and constantly switching on defense.

yes...that is where 2k's dribbling locomotion is still lacking. in 2k you can't do that explosive "first step" where you take a fast player and just have him burst into a drive. Rather, 2k has made it so that the dribbler will kind of slowly shuffle his feet for like 3-4 steps before he speeds up. This just makes the dribbling feel sluggish. I know - not every player should be able to "explode" into a drive like this, but certain fast players should be able to. Fix it 2k.
