As I said, if you read the Developer Insights, you'd clearly know.

Casual: This is the setting you want if you like up and down play with lots of dunks and highlight moments. There won’t be a whole lot of stoppages and you’ll see higher scoring across the board. Arcade-style play is probably the best way to describe it. Simulation: Real life stats. This is my game style of choice. With 12-min. quarters, you will easily see NBA averages across your stat lines. Don’t expect anything easy in the paint, you’ll have to work a lot harder and execute good basketball strategy to be successful in Sim.

Regardless, I got it confirmed as well by someone at 2K. I am sorry about the outlash, but it can be annoying when people jump to quick assumptions.

Two things I noticed

1) Passing. The speed and manner in which they passed was remarkably better. Instead of overhead lob passes all the time.

2) Dribbling animations look smoother.

Gameplay and other things were pointless with DunkyJones playing the game.

But did you notice the automatic help in the paint? It was usually the closest guy in the paint (PG most of the time) but there was help by the nearest player. I guess that is what they meant by having the defensive rotations streamlined now.

Oct 5th....can't wait.

I think court spacing is a bit of a problem because the man controlling the Mavs is running around at random with whoever he's controlling.

It's most likely the angle plus cropped video.

2k has always been a dunkfest... even on hall of fame difficulty... You guys say you dont like to hear it looks the same, but i mean it does with some presentation improvements. Unless they get the control side of things down, I'm not going to like it... THE PLAYERS ARE HUGE, they look like blitz characters... but thats a 2k sports trademark just like in all pro football 2k8

and that's why you got your game of choice. Don't be jealous because your game is having issues showing something competent. Why not scoot over to your little lonely forum area where you may continue to hope that your selected choice will at least be decent. I'm sorry that it won't happen.
