Man, I could shoot those leaners all day...
First game I played, I was taking ridiculous shots with Kobe, one of them didn't make contact with the rim, and the crowd started chanting "airbaaaall, airbaaaaall."

Thank you VC for not putting this crack on the table any earlier. If this had come out at the same time the Live demo dropped, I'd be a mess right now.
So much nuance. The game is bananas...

One thing I've found that's odd is that ray allen for example has a custom PA announcer thing where he says "ray ray" after allen makes a shot
Garnett who is on the cover doesn't have the pa guy say "K-G" like he does in the real celtics games. Not a big deal to me but the more specific things the better and it's the guy on the cover of all people

bro, how do you execute a leaner?
can you help a brother out? thanks..
You need to be running to have some momentum and then use the shot stick and pull right or left
For me it's easiest if I start near the elbow and run baseline

To b honest I live for this time of year when the new basketball game is released for the new season. Now I have been playing NBA 2k series for the past 2 years after live came on to next gen and didn't create a quality game that can even b compared. Now a buddy of mine advised me to check out live 09 this year and to b honest when he said it I didn't want to i didn't care. I was enjoying 2k and didn't want to look at n e thing else. But I decided to give it a try and it was an eye opener. Now I think these games will appeal to a specific individual it all depends on what u like doing when u play a game.
Now breaking down the 2. Everyone always says that 2K is the more "REALISTIC" series and I would have to question that this year. Now in b ball video games I am apart of the elite when it comes to gameplay. I can take any superstar Kobe, Lebron, T Mac, KG u name em and drop 50 plus points on u cuz i can score whenever I want to. With that being said I find that I dunk A LOT more in 2K9 than I do in live 09. The isomotion added some cool moves this year that to me makes breaking down defenders very simple and when I get past him. I go up and attemp to dunk on any one in the key. I find that 2K doesn't challenge any one attacking the basket the cpu A.I just stands there and allow themselves to get dunked on.
I will stop 4 now so ppl can comment on weather or not im incorrect with that comment. Will continue later.

Well, I can't stop playing it and it's a d*** demo. LOL!!
A couple of minor quibbles:
1) I think there is WAY too many blocks. I noticed this in all the videos previous of the demo dropping. But, easy slider fix.
2) Seriously, is there any way to stop Bynum and (especially) Gasol? They hit EVERY mid-range and out jumper and score down low most of the time over a highly-contested post defender, even KG. But, again, a few tweaks in their ratings would fix this as well.
Only a couple of minor things, but the game is AWESOME!!!
I LOVE you can actually run a real break this year (even hit a couple of trailers for dunks) which make me think more realistically (ie: get the ball to the middle of the court and space). The floor spacing is SO MUCH better and I like that we HAVE TO actually use some strategy this year and take advantage of mismatches.
Can't wait to get the real thing.

just had rondo in a double team and he intentionally jumpep up and threw it off one of my players legs and it went out of bounds, did not see that in 2k8, this game is so fluid. it may go down as a classic in sports gaming

Is it just me or does it feel like you dont have much control over your players? It seems like they will just start doing moves with out me telling them to, like when bringing the ball up court. It just doesnt feel responsive, like in 2ks past. Whenever i move left or right, the player does some weird move instead of just going left or right.

Gonna have to get the game for 360. PS3 version just looked weird on my TV. It was too dark or something.
I just had Kobe do a leaner in the far corner and push over the camera dude. It was sick! And then they closed up on kobe pointin at the dude he pushed over.

This can be a problem when it comes to online game because everyone knows there is always going to be a little lag online...but when you have a game that also has delay in execution...the timing for online games maybe really off.
