I think for now, the specific momentum will regulate the ball handling somewhat. As we could all see in Czar's vids, the lateral movement of every player is different, which affects a lot of the ball handling options you have. For instance, I didn't see Melo exploding like Rose in the vids. He was creating space, but no necessarily blowing by people.

I think the thing people miss with Bron is that he only needs a little space to explode. At that point, the contact is in his favor as either a no call or a foul, which is equally if not more lethal than a complete blow-by that an Iverson or Devin Harris type might do.

It's early to say so, but I think we will definitely need sig dribbles down the line. Specifically, the distance and speed of the change of direction will need to be very different from player to player. Deron Williams, for instance, does a crossover where he moves left to right and covers a big distance, which often results in him faking the **** out of his defender. Wade, by contrast, has a very sharp, fast change of direction that is just too quick to react to, and he manages to continue forward motion while doing so. That brings in the idea of what kind of momentum people have after a crossover. Wade's would be better than say, Skip to My Lou's, even though Skip's size-up would be significantly faster, giving them each a unique way to get around their defender.

I'll be looking to do a serious breakdown of this after the game comes out. Might not get too into breaking down the demo, as that still isn't the complete game.

Its very realistic to be able to lead in any directions when you have a relatively easy pass for a player's skill. It also gives you great control compared to the alternative. The problem with 2k's hoops is the defense didnt defend it well. This was especially true in 2k8 but it was better in 2k9 and the pass defense much better in the DC.

I know I would miss icon lead passing if I played a game that doesnt have it.
