Reason i keep saying realife is because i playd basketball yesterday...and like even when my boys were rotating the ball they'd run to the pass that was coming to them just not standing there because any defender can catch a ball just like the offensive player if there waiting for the ball to come to them..and thats what i do in 2k when i pass the ball to kobe i pulled him toward the ball to meet it not to wait till it got to him. Thats what i love about 2k11 right now fundamentals you have to know about basketball to play it. In the nba playsoff not once did ray allent let the ball come to him. most of the time he was meeting it why because his defender is watching the pass coming to him as well

Is the ball tangible this year? i dont really like standing right in front of a guy tapping steal and nothing happens. Can there be steal deflections while performing iso-motion moves?

Visuals and graphics look identical to 2K10 and WHY is Kobe wearing that wife-beater under his jersey when he didn't wear one at all last season. Also nice to see that the Lakers center court line is still yellow (sarcasim). Hopefully the retail version looks better. Thus far I'm not that impressed.

Can someone please make a thread for guys like this so they can understand that youtube vids don't upload at 60 fps becauset he file would be to big. people fail to realize that. THe game is not going to look anythigna s good as it does in the gamescon vids that only last 2 mins or 3 mins because most people don't have cable internet so it would freeze up our comps and make them crash most likely

Yeah. This I can get behind. If I'm passing to a guy on the outside, pass the ball to the side of his body AWAY from the defender.

You DO have lead passing however, and I guess they are making you be more active in how you pass. Not just who to pass to. That's a good thing I guess.

I've been watching some 2K8 videos recently, and from the 2K11 demo videos I've watched, it seems like 2K8's "smoothness" is back.

Yeah, I must say this game is going to end up being better than 2k8 and that says a lot for me. 2k8 was my favorite 2k game ever and just by playing a stripped version of 2k11, the control, presentation, post game, momentum jumpers, fluidity etc. really has me stoked for the retail version.
