Steph Curry wears his jersey tight. The "wave" effect is still present. There are multiple departments. Gameplay department. Art & graphics department. Audio department, etc. Does the art & graphics and audio etc department go on vacation when the gameplay department is and should always be fully active?

It appears that what people are "saying" is the graphics art department is doing "A" work right now (based on all the screenshots) while the gameplay department is doing "C" work (based on all the leaked videos).

EA's NHL series includes cloth physics. I was hoping I could find the video somewhere....

I think for the Jerseys they just have to get to the point where the Jerseys can actually get looser and fall out throughout the duration of the game, because that's what really causes the wave; more fabric being loose. They could even add in an animation that shows the player tucking his jersey, then it actually getting tucked in.

Then if they wanted to go over the top they could have signature Jersey sizes, Dwight Howard for example wears his jersey "extremely" tight ..

Just a thought ..

Dwight Howard is definitely someone who wears his jersey tight, but there is still the "wave" effect present. Even the Hawks' Antic wears his jersey fairly form fitting, but look at the picture to the upper right hand corner, pronounced "wave" effect.

The "wave" effect is there, but not to the extent in those Kobe pics that were shown. His jersey was near his upper neck/lower chin area. lol

Kobe is hunched over, thus the 'wave' effect is closer to his neck. Look at the photo of Dwight Howard in upper left hand corner, 'wave' effect is at the neck area. Same with LaMarcus Aldrige and Antic in the above photos. 'Wave' effect near the neck area. It all depends on the position of the body.

Yea Dwight still has the wave effect, but I think it's mainly because his jersey becomes untucked over time while he's playing. It's usually the tightest at the beginning of the game and like after halftime or timeouts when it's freshly tucked.

If they could find some type of way to replicate the jersey loosening up overtime they'd be Golden. I've even seen times where someone like Derrick Rose's full jersey or the full back of it comes completely out. Then he fixes it.

Even movement on the shoulders is common, sometimes the neck slides to the right or left depending on their movement or momentum.

Would be nice to see, and would be really cool to see happening while you're playing. Especially after fouls and screens; then see the guy fixing it during timeouts or at the freethrow line. It would just be hard to determine how it loosens and how much but I'll leave that up to the smart guys ..

Definitely. That would add a tremendous amount of graphics realism (notice I didn't say gameplay realism). Untucked jerseys every once in a while (and players playing defense and offense with untucked jerseys) would add that extra flare to the graphics.

However, I would hope it's not done to the extent of MLBtheShow where the players would have tug at their waist/belt area with their hands and there is absolutely no movement to the pants area.

Note: Someone's going to come in and say the NBA is not going to approve untucked jerseys, unfortunately.
