That means we're going to play from the Elite 8 and onward, which is three games for individual teams. I don't know about you or anyone else, but I'm not interested in playing a full season + an entire tournament against generated colleges like Vaseline Tech and Cocoa Butter State.

Don't break it down for me cause that's not what I meant.

I wish people would let people have their own opinions and expectations . It is a social forum

I really hope we can have the official 8 minute quarters for high school and the 20 minute halves (10 minute quarters?) for college.

Some people enjoy shorter games but for me it breaks the 4th wall of immersion and instead of playing basketball I play a video game.

Since there are "only" 9-10 teams we're going to play from the Elite 8 and onward, which is three games for individual teams.

I mean if they make it obvious like Tuscaloosa University for Alabama or University of Austin I'd be ok with it.

I'm talking about after college, and it was already confirmed if I'm not mistaken.

Your player will get hurt or be forced to forfeit the rest of the year somehow for the sake of the story. Either that or it'll just be the elite 8. Hopefully they will expand on the NCAA thing...would be nice if we just had NCAA games

Other genre games like shooters and RPG's always have gameplay and narrative discordance. With the introduction of the cinematic storyline into NBA 2K the narrative will most likely force you into the League early even if you're not a great player or just want to stay in school a while longer.

I don't know, I think that Vaseline Tech can make run to the sweet 16, they've got some pretty slippery dudes on the perimeter.

Fully agree. Like having a more realistic experience with realistic stats

Where, it wouldn't seem realistic to end up being offered a top school scholarship or being a top 10 pick in the draft when you are only getting 10 points a game or ball hogging to get more touches in short time

I thought it was too but 2K's market strategy this year is to hype crap and not give the full picture of what is going on. I will not rant but I do wish there was a clear overview of everything.

As a result, nothing is clear to me. Having to rely on bootleg streams just to get an idea of reality is just wrong.
