true.. i did see some preseason stuff on nba.com menu but that was AFTER he went through the offseason.. unless you can backout via the rightstick and look at the interface.. he just showed us the basics here. i cant wait to get started.

i like the fact that one of the guys wanted to test the FA market. steve never attempted to see what others were offering and try to get him back.. thats just fine though. thatll leave me some stuff to look into when i get it.

i didnt play much 2k8, but you can perform the training camps and even the scouting drills, right???

Not training camp, that's simmed to give your guy a set improvement on their attributes. You can run the scouting drills though. I wouldn't call them drills, it's really just 1v1, 2v2, 5v5 and shootaround. Unless they added some.

Shouldn't the bobcats have enough money to sign Some one like boozer or marion? i hope there isn't salary cap issues again.

Nope Bobcats shouldn't have cap room. They signed Okafor to a big contract and last year took on Jason Richardson's big contract from the warriors. That should already put them over the cap that along with whoever he resigned himself which puts him more over the cap.

I know it has very little to actually do with the game, but DAMN the new menus and graphics look good. Just another improvement to add to the overall experience. Plus that was cool that you used Bob's Cats because thats who I plan to use in Association. Just gives me a preview of what to expect in the first offseason.
