NBA 2K12 Video - Los Angeles Clippers vs. Boston Celtics (OS Exclusive)

Complain when you see Derrick Rose do that on Mo Williams and Mo somehow is right there in front of Rose when he goes to the hoop.

Also, the charge only worked (Or was possible, either way you want to look at it) because Ray Ray had to adjust his shot because Kaman was right in his face. You can actually see Ray sort of, lean into the defender when he was adjusting it.

realistically speaking though gordon should have came back on the side of ray not in front of him, ive never once seen a defender get beat then magically get back in front of him, unless like you said if ray was to stop and pop a short jumper and gordon overpursued that would make sense, but since ray went for the layup gordon should have been along the side of him trying to contest the shot

True, but Ray didn't stay on his intended angle. He shifted to the right. Combine that with the fact Gordon over-pursued equals Gordon in position for a charge. Not only that, Gordon never stumbled. Ray used a quick hesitation and it left him flat footed. Most players won't hustle afterward, but Gordon did.

It would be different if Gordon had slipped, and you saw that dreaded animation where he falls, only to get back up like he was Lazarus a milli-second later.

good point. i just dont want it to be where im kobe trying to take it to the rack and i get past my defender and he magically gets back in front of me like in 2k11...but otherwise this game is blowing me away

[ProfessaPackMan]

Loved the Intro at the beginning.

Rest of the video was solid but I didn't really see anything that blew me away, especially with what they've been preaching about with SP.

Looks great of course...disappointed in no changes to overlay graphics...

hate to say it but i'm a little disappointed with what i see. gameplay looks the same as last year for the most part. one thing that stuck out was the lack of boxing out. i thought rebounding was revamped? check it out around 5:45...4 celtics standing there while one clipper comes flying in untouched for a putback attempt? same with around 6:45. come on where are the fights down low for position??? don't think i saw more than maybe 2 example of 1 guy boxing out the whole time.
