2k sports always does great with commentary regardless of who it is. I have also found commentary to be one of their biggest strengths. Whatever 2k does with their proprietary commentary technology is on another level. I always feel at home listening to a 2k video game broadcast even with their MLB2k baseball series.

I'm not a big fan of the guys they've got in the booth these days(mainly Kellogg and now Greg Anthony) anyway. With their own team, they probably wouldn't have to pay as much, and the commentary could end up being much more dynamic because they'll be able to work more with the team(maybe we could even submit first and last names to the team, so people with uncommon names don't have to be called by their myPlayer's nickname). It would also be beneficial for the commentary team to get their foot in the door for possible network gigs thanks to 2k's large audience. I'd prefer TNT licensing, but this, in my opinion would be the next best thing. What do you think?

At this point in the game, staying with traditional TV personalities is the way to go. Fans expects this. It simply breathes more authenticity into the broadcast. I definitely hear what you're saying though. Plus, it be a lot easier to update commentary lines throughout the year when the voice actors are there in their backyard. Had 2k started with voice actors (a la NFL2k) then maybe, just maybe backyard personalities would work.

It also could be be the conservative jump. Remember, you can manually jump vertically or aggressively try to block this year.

I haven't heard a lot from Greg Anthony but the few games I have heard he sounds fine. Nothing spectacular, but nothing annoying. He's good and I know 2K will implement him well. I think I will enjoy him, if for no other reason than the fact that he will freshen things up a bit. 2K has added more to this game in a single year than I could have ever thought possible...and they aren't even done yet. I'm exhausted man.

I can't handle Kellogg another year I'm sorry. That little whistle he has in his speech impediment drives me insane.

It would be nice if 2K would follow in SCEA's footsteps and allow you to turn down the volume of the individual commentators.

It looks like a two man animation to me...which favors the offense more...I will see once I get my hands on the game.

I can't stand Greg Anthony. May mute the commentary this year lol.
