Kyrie definitely looks weird. His head is way too small. He has no neck. And when in his defensive stance, he looks like Igor.

Albeit user controlled, the sequence has Klay planting both his foot, then passing rather than simultaneously planting both feet and passing.

Yeah, I could be wrong, but I doubt the person controlling Klay stopped pushing on the sticks, and then passed. I bet he hit the pass button, and that's the animation that was used. He should be passing off the dribble in that situation IMO.

Curry sig dribble move and then drive, gorgeous.


And the free throw routine. Sexy.


The mouthguard routine was even nicer as a bi-product (not the focus). It's more subtle in this vid which made me appreciate it even more for some reason......haha.


The first play, pin down for Love for the 3. Nice action. Great look from the screen. Very nice.

[WTF]

Not that it adds much to the discussion, but I think it looks excellent. I'm looking forward to it.

AI Kyrie..... CPU taking advantage of wiiide open shots.... dribbling and motion all beautiful..

Two things I didn't like: wish less big men had a good standing dunk rating/tendency. Love doesn't (ever?) go straight up with two hands like that in traffic.

Also, I'm starting to not like the 'contextual shot animations' (Klay Thompson 3). LeBron wasn't even playing that tight but Klay acted like he got hit with a sniper LOL

Do you want a smart AI or one that follows a set script ? I see this is going to come up a lot. Remember I said a 48 min gameplan. So first quarter with 3 all star caliber players the offense is spread around to get everyone going. But any time defense makes a mistake the AI is smart enough to attempt to take advantage. Every thing is fluid and dynamic. When you enable intelligence you remove ability to forcefully determine outcomes. Any of those guys can get hot and have the offense focused on them. By default this means that everygame your not going to agree with top scorers of the opposition. But how you choose to defend will naturally affect the outcome. Also mismatches and pnr coverages and hot streaks = dynamic.

I also thought of the LeBron touches, but perfectly worded. 48 minute gameplan and (KEY WORD) - dynamic.


This has a pick your poison element of strategy which is just......porn.


Also, if this were a 48 minute video, something tells me LBJ would've started to make an imprint on the game...... load up another 48 minute game and I am betting it plays out totally different (and he may touch it every time down to start the game).


Very hard to critique on such small snippets. One of the risks 2K runs when releasing said vids I hate to say.


I like to try and keep the "glass is half full" mentality just to try and encourage a flow of media..... haha.

Love always goes up two handed after a drop pass, that's why I liked it so much, lol

The contextual shot animations were very overdone in 2k14....felt like I never got to see guys regular sig J's lol....it calmed down a lot in 2K15 though....hopefully it's not too bad this year....they should really only occur when a guy is right up under you.

To be honest, I never really watched Cleveland all too much this season lol but going off memory, Love usually gets a little momentum first before going up. I think a step forward while going up in stride would've looked a lot nicer for Love.
