As an Association only player, that would great for me if its still there.

I wonder if the sig shots are all still off of stand stills or if you can do them in motion if you're moving. Thats one thing that Im hoping they got in the game. Overall... I need to see more

I also thought he was going to throw it down to KG cuz he was in his signatue post up position.

Man I wish the jumpers were like the animations in CAP..In game they are too high and slow

That was my point, although it was only one time... dont know if this is a frequent occurance or not.

Here's hoping to Steve having a 2k9 itch and can't stop recording videos

Seeing too many videos doesn't put a damper on the game for you?

I agree with you that this board is a little too obsessed with commentary. It has never ruined a game for me. Also co-sign on the crowd.

I disagree about commentary, I get so excited by the plays, that if commentary was better and they actually discussed and talked about my players or their performance, I would be inclined to feel even more excited.

When I listen to marv and kerr talk about the game, Kerr really goes indepth. For example he talked about Gasol's ability in the post, and how he's been manhandling the opposing team down there the entire game. They go indepth about players and teams, and they also re-visit instances earlier in the game. Commentating would really take this game over the top since the gameplay is so fun.

Booted up good ol' 2K7 to get a look at Bosh's old shot again, yeah, that shot was perfect for Fisher.. He cocks that all the way back to his shoulder just like Fish does. Looked at some other shots, and Fisher's shot in that video is definitely Udonis Haslem's sig shot, which isn't like Fisher's at all because it's from the top of his head. Not trying to make a big deal over it but it just irritates me that they literally took out a perfectly good shot for him out of the game and made it not even selectable on 2k8

Ironically, if a specific play hadn't have been run there, Rondo may have given the ball to KG based on the good post up position. The A.I. probably still isn't dynamic enough to deviate from the called play instantaneously, if a great look becomes available early in the set.
