No need for the tin foil conspiracies, honestly. What we saw in the trailer is what we're getting at EA Play.

First impressions are vital, and it rings true here as well. Why showcase something that doesn't look very impressive, just to risk people being so turned off they don't even tune into EA Play? Wouldn't make a lick of sense.

If it's not a fact or actionable item, stop creating it. Don't spread so called rumors here. It's a disease.

Not believing that either. One thing I believe is that EA is not good at making good trailers for the live series. Live 14 had an atrocious trailer. Poor Kyrie Irving. Live 15 trailer with Damian Lilliard was lifeless. Yes,it was "different". Live 16 trailer with Westbrook was a little better, but seemed like random clips of "stuff". None of the trailers have ever seemed to put their best foot forward. And have never been a good representation of the final product for the good or the bad. I'm going to buy the game regardless. I'm just a Live head. But I am optimistically hoping that the final product is so much more than the latest 27 second clips of "stuff". I will be at EA Play with fingers crossed.

Agreed. I think it's just an EA thing. I love Madden but have not really been impressed with the way they put trailers together for the most past. Too many quick glances. I get it but would like to see more. Like (insert player) bring the ball up, do the play call, and make some amazing play happen. That would be sweet. Like real sweet. They could make it look like the play call is in his head. THAT would be cool.

Thanks 23.

Is this going to be "closed door" NBA Live event ? Or only invited guests who sign NDA's ? Or will we get info, vids, official trailer ?
