Last year that took until a couple of weeks before release, and I expect the same this year.

How would higher difficulty trigger physics?

Physics/hit detection should be present from rookie to hall of fame.

Even if it was on a lower difficulty it should still show Harden bump off the guy or make contact regardless of a dunk on animation. It would just result in an easier point on a lower setting. There should always be physical contact or hit detection. But it's pretty clear from this clip it's still not present. Which makes me sad lol

Well it's still an animation based game, but we knew that already. On a higher difficulty, there is greater likelihood of contact and a contact animation. Same with defenders showing more quickness to defend and help.

It's amazing that, year after year, they think NBA players have tree trunk legs. No way should Wiggins' legs be even close to that thick.

I barely sunk any time into the mode in 2k15 due to it boring the heck out of me. Hopefully the story isn't too over the top, but I have faith in Spike Lee to give us at least a 7/10 rated story.

This is about where I fall on whole "MyPlayer" stuff. I'm just not into them in any sports game. But this emphasis on story and "beginnings", Spike Lee and a collegiate aspect all have me very intrigued. I really want to see where they take this thing. Like you, I didn't get very far with 2k15. At this point it's just a bonus for me because I already know what I'm getting from MyLeague (with more goodies to come) and 2K on the gameplay tip.

I hope AD short clips involves him blocking a shot or two.

maybe we can get close to this in 17?
emotion, expression, and all.

You can't lose faith that quick bruh. We will eventually get some gameplay. They are always late with showing us gameplay and giving details. Snippets aren't going to show us everything.

Trailers have no effect on me. The fact I can create and relocate my team in MyLeague has me bought.

However, it was a good watch!
