Every NBA player name (like Joakim Noah) should be selectable.

They have double rubberbands, normal forearm band, shorter forearm band, a new elbow sleeve, and a couple new knee braces. That is plenty!

Yeah, it sucks that they lost their deal w/ Reebok. Especially, since their original coverboy A.I. is stuck wearing plain white & black kicks. Hopefully, next season they can get Reebok, Converse and (least likely) And-1 on board for 2K10. If not, I wouldn't mind the return of create-a-shoe but enhanced 10X more than 2K5.

I love it, I've got a ton of player editing to do. One of my favorite parts about sports video games. I even like that they've eliminated armbands above the elbow, a "on-court" dress code violation in the L.

Dude, your just like me, I'm updating player accessories on 2k8 till this day. Having all the accesories correct on the player gives the game a great feel of authenticity.

Thats what im trying to figure out, why would 2K add those songs, they dont add anything to the sport of basketball and even though last year's soundtrack was off (Ill leave it at that) this would be really out there.

The funny part is that I'm a Spurs fan, and none of those guys consistently rock accessories, yet I'm constantly editing nearly all the players to their real-life counterparts gear. I'll definitely be changing 99% of the players to that smaller forearm-band, that's for sure.

Man this soundtrack will be dope..Last year they had a lot of Dilla tracks which was pretty nice (Dilla = The Greatest)..These songs have more of a streetball mixtape feel to them so I love it lol
