Agreed. That was what I was referring to in an earlier post, the way he put it though, it's much more in-depth.

You should be able to write back to people on twitter that would make it soo much better

All Insights should be over 5 minutes. I don't like when they release those 2 must insights that give you limited information.

That is true. I remember I noticed it but nobody did as well. Hopefully they will fix it. Because in 2k12 My Player the draft picks were always distributed in alphabetical order.

I wish commentators would say our real names instead of nicknames.

If you have a common last name, or one that a current NBA player has then I believe they say it. The name database is only so big though.

Things I've wanted in MP this year:

Improved teammate AI- check
Some way to influence coaching- check
Ability to influence teammate minutes- check
Sliders- no, but I'm getting the pc version so check
Combine, summer league, training camp, d-league- no
Takes several seasons to max out player instead of a season and a half- ?
Tiger skin pants- check(j/k)

Good stuff for the mode this year. Love the seven minute video 2k, more like that please.

PIT is an 8-team, 12-game tournament held over a four-day period. April 11th to April 14th. Jimmy Butler, Landry Fields, and Jeremy Lin are some alum. (Résumé, seniors 2nd round and undrafted) NBA Draft Combine- in reality it’s the interviews, measurements, and athletic testing. The combine is drill based, there are no scrimmages. June 6th to 8th in Chicago. (Résumé Top 60 best prospects, both international and college) Euro Camp- Three day camp, internationals only, top prospect going through measurements, drills, daily scrimmages, and daily cumulative all star games. (Euros) Pre draft workouts- Every prospect with a shot at the NBA workouts for teams with interest. Doing various drills assigned. Coaching staff, management, and scouts are all there. (Every Résumé) All these events really exist, unlike the showcase thing. Summer League- Not optional, unless injury. (Every Résumé) D-League- If you get assigned, you go. (Every Résumé) Training camp (Every Résumé) *Top picks choose to participate in the combine. Users who have no interest, you'd get measured at the combine, but your agent would say the my player (you) will only participate in team workouts. Just like real top picks and lotteries do.

I can get behind that. Nice work!
