NBA 2K13 Gameplay Video Featuring Spurs vs. Thunder & All Star Weekend - 6/4 10PM EST

It is June people. It is June people. It is June people.

The game is 3 months+ away from being finalized.

This video probably isn't even from yesterday's most recent build.

It is June people. It is June people. It is June people.

It is June people. It is June people. It is June people.

It is June people. It is June people. It is June people.

With contact 2K has to understand that in today's NBA any slight contact between ball handler and defender is a foul.

This is my main problem with bumping especially after watching that heat Boston series were every little thing is a foul.

If a player is going toward the rim and you bump him in any direction that should be a foul

So what it is June, 2K still hasn't addressed some of the problems that greatly plagued 2K12.

I understand what 2K is doing by showing a short video to show us something.
The problem I have is that they showed us a few new animations but 2K did not take out some animations, especially the bad ones.

People can be upset or disappointed

I didn't expect to see much difference on a build being shown this early and my expectations were met. Loved the layup by Westbrook. Also liked the momentum model present when Ginobli had to shift his weight a few times to try and catch/stop Westbrook before that layup-Never saw that in 2k12. Not much else to speak on outside of that. They still have a ways to go before release so I'm not going nuclear on a video in early June based on a build that is probably from May or earlier.

Terrible decision with that dunk contest control scheme though...Hopefully there is an option for the classic controls(Really liked the previous scheme)

The jury is still out on double teams,speed differential, art updates,coach mode improvements, passing -my main concerns for 2k13.

You do know that for sales purposes 2k also has to appeal to casual gamers as well, and who knows maybe there will be multiple ways to play the dunk contest, they told us very little about the mode.

Got to disagree there. There are many instances in the nba where ball handler and defender collide IRL and no foul is called. Without the bumping animations people on defense would have zero weapons to defend against paint whores like the Heat in 2k. As long as they have momentum on defenders meaning if you shift your body one way and the handler goes the other, the defender can't easily morph back into position then the bumping animations can be balanced and not overdone. Giving the ball handler a window to dribble away from the contact when a bump animation triggers and more stopped dribbles will also be welcomed.

You have been here since 2009 so I am a bit disappointed that you clearly don't understand that there will be multiple builds before the final, to get a game ready to present this early they probably uses one of the first builds, Mike Wang already came on here to confirm this but just ignore him.
