Wouldn't that be like last year's Create A Legend? You could important legends into that making you have Magic Johnson or such as a My Player?

That wouldn't add anything new.

A cool thing would be, but this is VERY speculative, is full college integration, where you start on a college level and play your way into the NBA, including the Olympic games every four years.

That's just speculation though and it wouldn't be considered a new mode per say.

Yeah besides Dream Team, I doubt there will be anything new with Legends.

I am thinking that if they say something that is cooler than MP, than I thinking MP has to be involved with it. If it is something online, then I wont touch it.

I wouldve been okay with just changes/additions in MP. I was not expecting a overhaul. Most of my gripes in MP were AI/Gameplay related, and it looks like it is fixed. I expect them to add depth in the mode. With the gameplay looking very nice, all the mode need it depth. Probably more customization, different pre/post draft actions, more off the court stuff. Really looking forward to MP this year. As long as the MP Draft is fixed(which I expect it to be) and Simming any game is in, than MP will be better because of the gameplay/ai changes.

IMO, I think this will be sports game of the year. With only really seeing a 1/3 or 1/4 of the improvements, this has been a huge leap from 12. Most sports games, you really only see a improvements in certain areas while the rest is tweaked at best. As it seems, the game looks to be fully improved. I know this isnt high on the list of improvements for everybody, but I really like how they improved how the players react post play. I think it will add atmosphere to the game. Players would act like robots during timeouts and barely react to buzzer beaters. I cant wait to see it all.

I am guessing that we see info/insights weekly starting this week. With there be exactly 6 weeks from the game being released, it will fly by. I expect this Gameplay insight to be the last gameplay insight. We might get an Presentation/Audio insight next week. We usually get the MP insight the 1st week of Sept(based off of last 2 years) and the online stuff the last week of Sept. So, I am guessing we hear about the New Mode and Association in between those 2.

New mode that's better than my player? If this guy's correct there's our answer that Crew is back in basically.

Was is specified if the mode was 100% new or that it was just better than my player?

Either way if they say they have a mode better than myplayer I bet its either something Online related or Association is revamped/renamed and back in a big way seeing as he didn't say better than myplayer/association.

I just hope they don't go the CC route and kill all editing/team switching/customization like EA did.
