This is going to sound insulting but it's not... I am genuinely curious, do you offline gamers have any friends? I ask because when u all mention online it's always about cheesers... Well if u have friends or family who play this game then this is easily the best thing to happen to sports video games since the analog stick!!! I have 5 buddy's who are all about to join me in a NBA utopia where we get to pretend to be g.m. And superstars simultaneously!

If that does not excite u, then u either don't like basketball or don't have friends. In either case, my player mode sounds like your 2ktopia. Have fun with that, but please chill with the negative Nancy responses. Sheesh

The cpu also will never be as dumb, petty, obnoxious, racist (some), etc. as a human can be - it goes both ways; that's why a lot of people don't play online. I'm not a big online player but looking forward to getting into online more and trying this out.

And why is it now people need every single thing explained or they'll assume the worst? Just because they're not mentioning every improvement doesn't mean those areas of the game were ignored.

Question, does this Online Association require 30 teams?

Off topic but it would be the greatest thing ever if 2k revived College Hoops with this type of feature.

Man I think 2k should do everything in their power to get the rights back for college hoops. Just imagine how good the game will be now.

For example, you can have a myplayer mode in college hoops where you start off as a high school rising senior on the AAU circuit and work your way all the way to the NBA. That would be tight!

Not sure. It doesn't require 30 human controlled teams though.

The only thing I want to know about Online Association is, how many people do you NEED to start it up with? Because my cousin and I just want to do one with just us (Him being New York and me being Orlando) and the 28 other teams controlled by the computer. I don't want to have to find other people that might quit after a day because they didn't get the team they wanted. That's what I hated about league.

Then this mode is for you!
