I doubt that would get it done. Remember this is the guy who allowed his likeness to be used solely on the Dream Team in 2K13 supposedly only at the prodding of Jay-Z. He did not agree to be used on any historical team and wasn't.

Moreover, license to be used as a TNT commentator and license to be used as a historical basketball player are likely two separate issues.

Oh I understand that completely. But people's perception is Chuck and Reggie are in the game as commentator/halftime guy, then at some point the '93 Suns and a Miller Pacers team (likely '00) will be in the game, solely because they are commentators.

Do you have some sort of OS Google alert that goes off whenever someone mentions him in a thread?

Haven't read enough of the thread, but will post game highlights work on the PS4?

or has a dev chimed in on if this will work on the PS4? post game highlights that is. They have never worked on the PS4 past the 7 or 8 minute mark and they claim they couldn't fix it last year. So what makes one think this can be fixed or was it even on the priority list, since it's so low on the totem pole.

Cool touch, but is this something we typically see on broadcasts?

I dig every bit of this. If they leave the Turner licence alone they can keep customizing as they see fit.

Yeah and there are always great deals. Best Buy just had that X1/40 Inch SmartTV bundle for like $500.

For the umpteenth time, they already confirmed Kerr is being replaced.

They already said Kerr is being replaced.

Until 2K or a dev says one way or another, we're all speculating to a certain degree. I didn't expect Barkley or Miller to be in the game this year. But who am I to tell those guys to stop bringing it? 2K hasn't said anything official. I just don't think it's right to poo poo on what another person wants to get out of the game if it has not been ruled out by the team.
Actually a 2k dev has spoken on this. They've said that they would prefer to focus on the developing the 2k brand within game. I've actually talked about this with 2k devs in the past and they referenced how expensive these licenses are and how it could be used on other resources. They have never outright said it wont happen but its clear from their comments that its not likely.

Makes sense. Smart business IMO. I don't think they even need a license. Their presentation is fine and they do a good job overall. Why waste money for a trademark? They already have really good TV personalities in the game.

I'm a really surprised so many have a obsession with 2k paying for a license.
