FINALLY - guys are going to love this.

Let the chess match begin!

Just need to correct you on something Zach:

	In 2K11, there were no negative consequences to users spamming the steal button.

This is not true - there was a negative consequence. Not enough of them and certainly not any adequate amount of "pokes" out of the post.

The motherlode of all insights at long last. Can someone please paste the text contents in the original post. I'm at work and really need to read this nowwwww!....in Bart Scott's voice (CAN'T WAIT!)

I can finally do some serious damage in the post game this year especially online. Definitely loving how u can defend the post play better this year, big plus.

Thanks for the link, off to read.

# 5 Da-Man @ 09/15/11 02:49 PM

meh... too many options for the post game. I like my post game simple like nba jam.

You can pull the chair out and flop now...amazing.

	Something to note: If you don’t like the result of the move you’re in the middle of performing (maybe a defender is locking you up), you can press the post engage button again to queue up an engagement that keeps you in the post once the move ends. This can allow you to quickly attempt another post move.

Thank goodness they finally put this back in. Seems like they're using some of the mechanics that were in 2K8 and were missing the last 3 years. I wonder once a player loses his dribble whether his pivot foot is still active because I used that tactic a lot back in the day.

man, loving what i hear about the AGGRESIVE BACKDOWN MOVES, can drop our shoulders.... super realistic... i soooooooooooooooooooooooo hyped for this game, already told my parents that i've been doing my college homework in advance, like two weeks ahead, so when this games come out, going to be dead to the world! ( took off work also)

You could do it before too. Hopefully it actually WORKS now instead of looking pretty.

Much appreciated...licking my chops as the possiblities seem endless with my main man Big Al Jefferson, the last of a dying breed of bigs with an infinite repetoire down low....

OH...MY...GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHD. The post game is my absolute FAVORITE part of NBA 2K and they improved it more than I could ever imagine!

Geez man, I need to hibernate for the next few weeks because I can't take any more of this spectacular info or my head is gonna explode. We will be able to pull off sick moves like this in the post.

2K i will pay you $100 if I can get my copy early. Real talk!!

# 13 dukedude24 @ 09/15/11 03:00 PM

sounds like a lot good stuffs.

i think we will see a lot sky hooks. lol

not sure if i like pulling the chair though, i could see people keep doing that move and can get annoying when u r posting up. NBA players don't do it that often.

# 14 Self313 @ 09/15/11 03:02 PM

this is death to all the "they spent all there time with the legends" dudes

I................... Im at a loss for words even, too many moves... counters to moves, anticipation on defense...

yeah this is for sure a 12 minute quarter game at this point... sim... but in capitol letters...

# 15 Self313 @ 09/15/11 03:04 PM

if they get you once shame on them
If they get you twice, shame on you lol

If I know somebody loves to take charges I dont sprint all wreckless

if I know you like to pull the chair, I wont try to sit on it (pause)

# 16 domidomdomz @ 09/15/11 03:05 PM

Honestly I enjoyed the depth of post game in NBA 2K11. But as the saying goes, "There's always room for improvement".

And it looks like the case for NBA 2K12. Let the Training Camp begin come October 4.

I interpretted that as only happening by chance if a player is doing the "aggressive" back down.

# 18 SouthBeach @ 09/15/11 03:09 PM

Yes!

All of these Insights are about revenge for me.

So, Dirk...your time is near.

I'm guessing if you don't try to aggressively back your man down, it won't happen.

# 20 TheBadazz @ 09/15/11 03:15 PM

Now that's a insight. Last year I never took the time to remember all the advance moves. The year they're making it more intuitive. Cause Boozer needs all the help he can get. LOL!
