I knocked Lamar Odom to the ground on a hard foul, and he hurt his ankle.

I must say that watching Pau Gasol carry Odom to the bench was awesome!

The mid air adjustment looks like it only works for star players.

I have to get used to the PS3 motion again. It's kind of grainy and is herky jerky but I still like it.

The gameplay is...wow. I have been amazed. You can tell the difference between Rondo BOUNCING THE BALL differently than say Kobe or Fisher.

I cannot wait to get this. From the demo, this is an absolute must buy first day game.

haha. I hit a three with Kendrick Perkins. I love the shot stick!

The AI is much smarter than last year. They put together better passing moves and stuff like that.

GULP, I just played the DEMO, and while I enjoyed it, I came away hoping that the colors and graphics look a a bit better in the retail version, I love 2k basketball as most of you know,, I just wasn't blown away like I thought I was going to be.

do you guys use shotstick 100% of the time? I found myself not using it in 2K7 that much, but in 2K8 i would use shot stick all the time, it just kinda feels more natural to me now...

one thing..i played in 1080P and the second time i played i put it in 720P and it looked better in 720p on my samsung...not sure why but that ringboard advertising lighting on the court looked clearer in 720P

btw the court and arena rendering looks better in this version than last years

Wow, I was Lakers playing the cpu as Celtics, Pierce sets a pick for KG around the top of the block. Rondo feeds KG the ball, and KG pulls up for the jumpshot, BUT as this happens Rondo was cutting in toward the hoop. KG passes the ball in mid-air to Rondo for the easy layup!
