Perhaps more importantly is that we find out everything about NBA greatest mode next friday. As always the first insight has zero info, but I cant wait to find out if A.I is in 2k12 and the moments they chose for the legends.

A.I, with his ego, refusing to be in a video game as one of the 15 chosen legends? Come on!

I apologize in advance for being in the dark a little, but are these "Greatest" votes on Facebook truly counting for anything?

I can’t emphasize enough the importance of community involvement over the next two months. We’ve created a skeleton list of the 15 players and rivalries to be featured in NBA’s Greatest. But we’ve been interested in your feedback. Is there a particular game or player you want to relive in NBA 2K12? You’ll finally get the chance to do so come Oct 4.

It seems like they're really stressing our involvement, but is this only for the sake of drawing attention to themselves like they did with the Twitter 2K Cover scenario? Are the 15 greatest already set, with our votes hinting at downloadable content? I can't tell how seriously I'm supposed to take the Facebook voting. If it's only for the sake of hype, I would not care.

My best guess, if he's in, is the 2001 Finals against the Lakers.

If that happens, we can expect a young Kobe/Shaq.
But since they excluded Kobe from the voting, it's a toss up to me.

You'll only be able to play with him in games and not practice mode though.

Great minds think alike.
