"Hey NBA LIVE fans! First off, we just wanted to say thanks for all of your support around our first-look screenshot. We’re excited to be able to share that in-game asset with you, and today we’re going to dig a little deeper into the visual improvements we’re making in NBA LIVE. We’ve talked a lot about head scans and player likenesses, but we’re going so far beyond that this year. Here’s a quick rundown of some of the things we’ve got in store."
Hope the create-a-player is much improved as well. If they and 2K want the "campaigns" to be the selling point, then CAP needs to be in-depth and look really good.
I know I'm reeeeaally nit-picking but Magic's name font should be wider; Portland's font seems italic when it shouldn't and the number shouldn't touch the red stripe. Other than that it looks like a big improvement from Live 14.
Just noticed the camera on top of the shot clock as well. Looks like a lot of attention has been paid to the little things this year. Should all add up to a great looking final product.
Game is looking absolutely phenomenal. The lighting, jersey scanning, head scanning, shoes, everything is looking really good.
Don't know if anyone noticed, but it looked like there were ball smudges on the backboard. Wow.
I wonder if those will be dynamic. They had the scuff marks on the floor for Live 14, but I think they were there from the start; they didn't really change throughout the game. If they can make little things like that change dynamically, that's impressive.
I need to see full gameplay first. I'm impressed with the graphics but better gameplay is more important than better graphics IMO. Hints why I played college hoops 2k8 instead of NCAA BB 10. Looks promising so far.
To the guy complaining about there not being enough assets, is this good enough? But seriously, I'm excited for this fall, the improvements looks great and I'm hopeful we get to see some actual early gameplay footage next month.
After 2K decided to alignate offline single-player fans, I'm excited for LIVE 15. I believe LIVE 14 had good stuff to build on and EA does want to own the sports market, so LIVE 15 should be a decent/fun game.
I'm hopeful we get to see some actual early gameplay footage next month.

Interesting considering they said in their open letter we would start getting gameplay details in July.
