Dethrone the show u then went to far just of commentary they got to fix the gameplay first lol

[Stumbleweed]

They'll never live down the "dynamic commentary" fiasco from 2K9 haha, that's why everyone is so skeptical. I hope for the best though, because that would make all modes more interesting and realistic presentation-wise.

2k do this every year what happend to the 2k insider to counter act live dna it was wack what happen to 2k online teamplay it was wack im feeling a pattern going on here

If they can actually pull this off, then this game will have THE best presentation in the business.

But, will there be a lengthy download or will there be some kind of...streaming thing from the internet with all the fresh commentary? Also, will this mean that all through the season Mark Jackson and whoever the other nobody is will be recording new lines? I mean it has to mean that, right?

I'm hopeful, but...just seems like they're claiming more than they're capable of. Like maybe they'll have up to date stuff but it might get some glossed over generic commentary on it that can apply to anything. Like...

"Here's what -the Hornets- have done lately..."

if u played live 09 while it wasn't in depth they would talk about who was on a hot streak leading shot blocker rebounder etc. in quick play modes and all the online modes. live had this last year but it was very limited. this year they have over 100 story lines that can be triggered, by whats going on in real life. i think it's a good idea to do this as well to stay on point with the competition, however 2k has fallen by the waist side every time they do what live does. 2k basketball was a superior series but 2k9 was so bad with the team up, the 2k insider. but i hope they can pull it off cuz that means a better game for me, but i want them to do something new and fresh and stop copying.

Have the signature moves been tweaked? shot releases quicker than others ex(s.curry,b.barry,e.gordon etc.)

Did signature style defense make it into the game?
better steals blocks with out fouls ex youtube jason maxiell blocks chandler and kg

How does the ratings spread change the game?

Can you feel ur players weight while controlling him?

Is there more collision? more contact while dunking missed dunks stronger lay ups protect the ball when driving

How is isomotion different?
create a signature cross create signature dunk
protect ball when dribbling better cross overs, hesitations and dribbling control should be able to switch ball 2 right or left hand not it do it for me

catch the ball while running but not like nba live where they over throw the ball and tip it to themselves

Run The Break Run N Gun if the shooters are hot they should blow teams out

Drive and kick out offense
and Draw the defense especially when key players drive (kobe,lebron,josh smith,chris paul etc)

how and will this be integrated into an association mode?

that's one of the few pluses in the live franchise. Always thought EA has done a great job on commentary. the banter, and random stats etc that goes on during a game, is a pleasant thing.
The atmosphere is also captured true to life.
