if you listen carefully i think it was partially blocked as well...

The problem is that the missed layups in 2k9 were ALWAYS short. Im talking about the rim physics here. I wanna see some bad shots go wide / dont even touch the rim..

Maybe its just something that only bothers me but I think that looks and feels terrible.

I think you guys are astute enough to know that this is not final 2K10 gameplay code, it physically can't be. This game needed to be done in early July while we have until mid-late September for the full version of the game. That being said, you'll see the core changes to the game (spacing (which makes a big difference), mechanics, etc.).

It's a very fun experience that brings new gameplay to the table (the game plays totally different than what you are used to as you are player locked to your player). If you take it for what it is (it is NOT final 2K10 gameplay), then I honestly think you guys will really enjoy it. More than anything we've put out, this game rewards fundamental basketball and punishes me-first cheeser basketball. There is a learning curve for people who play a certain way, they are going to struggle at first.

Only 11 more days...

Good to hear that man.

[DaWolf]

Nice to hear that spacing is officially looked at

Really there was a lot to like about the video. You had JD playing schoolyard and failing. His team only had six after , 6 minns, the pace was improved. I'm just worried that we are seeing the real NBA players at the combine then when 2k10 drops we are going to get the super mutant demigods, named after NBA players.

As much as I tear down NBA 2K9, this is the reason I decided to pre-order NBA 2K10. You guys have done more for sim basketball than anyone else.

By providing Draft Combine you're conditioning a part of your fanbase that tends to play the game as if it were NBA Jam while simultaneously appeasing the simheads out there. It may (hopefully) or may not teach people to play correctly resulting in a better online experience - but it certainly is very clever.
