The other thing I noticed is the actual footplanting step for step on Harden's dribbling on the T.O. looks to be improved there was minimal sliding on the animations for what they shown. He didn't have to gather his feet to accelerate weird or get in the right location to trigger the dunk it looked very fluid.

I liked what I saw on this play as well. Another thing I would add is how he exploded out of his first step. Didn't look like he had the sluggish acceleration like in '15. Also noticed his speed-dribble posture looked more realistic.

Was that Mike Wang "trying" to cover Steph?

2K15 here or there is prone to a bit of ice skating, it usually shows up in triggering dunk animations when driving. Yeah I was going to say his acceleration dribble looked good too. I specifically looked at them a few times and it was almost step for step minimal sliding at all. I am sure they are trying to get better with it each year.

Cant really see in the vid but from the screenshots the lighting doesn't look improved was really hoping that ecomotion lighting was gonna make it back

That last MyGM screen seems to be team relocation, there's quite a few dots on that map that don't belong to real teams (there's a dot on Alaska for example). Also seems like you can decide between building an arena in the downtown area or suburbs *with each having their own interest level (pure speculation here. I don't see why there would be an option between the two otherwise*).

If you pause at the right moment, on the left, you'll see a title called 'CITY INTEREST BASED ON' with 3 criteria that are too blurry to read. So the GM may have a really tough choice there. Build in the city: better chance for big financial earnings, larger arena but low initial interest or build in the suburbs: lower chances for big financial payoffs but extremely high fan interest out the gate.

Nah, Mike is too old to be doing that. This isn't NBA Inside Drive mo-cap.

I hope they also give us a 1995-1996 Toronto Raptors team with Stoudamire in Rookie of the Year form. When he got to the Trailblazers, he was mostly just a distributor and spot-up shooter. But on Toronto, he was basically their entire offense for the few years before his departure.

No way 2k puts the expansion raptors team as a classic ..... No way..

Yep, you can also see it says "contribution" up top there. Looks like it's what the city you choose to re-locate to will be contributing to building your stadium? I saw $2,500,000 for the contribution.
