It's beautiful, and I can't wait to block more of iPodKingCarter (though he equally facialized me with LeBron - this I cannot lie).

So with this new system will we see volleyball type blocks like the ones on this vid? There's no oomf to the shotblocks in 2k13 and I remember 2k11 had these types of blocks and they were GLORIOUS!

So did we get NEW Attributes or Tendencies that EFFECT the Blocking OR is it just Built in the game?

The info being released goes for current-gen and next-gen consoles, right? I've only been seeing current-gen screenshots, so I'm not sure.

BEST NEWS SO FAR!!!

I'll have to play and experience the new system, until then it's not big news to me since blocking dunks isn't a new feature, maybe the next piece of news will hype me up.

1000000000% agree with this

They can't block my dunks tho.
