they have a lot of modes for offline gamers? lol..

Only 3v3? I would like the option of being able to choose 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, or 5v5 in blacktop team up.

I actually think that plays a very significant role. That big article written shortly after release of 2K12 (detailing its online struggles) mentioned 2K's ongoing attempt to restructure an online system that previously dated back to Dreamcast. They mentioned Crew in that article and referenced the difficulty that comes along with having 10 gamers on their system all playing at once. It may have been a public relations response, but they stated they didn't want to re-introduce Crew until they knew it could be done right.

I cannot actually look at this article right now, but I think it's the one I'm talking about: http://www.pastapadre.com/2011/10/06...issues-persist

I hope it is fullcourt with 2 cpu players on each team, halfcourt would be pretty weak but its better than nothing

Would be very disappointing if it is halfcourt.

most likely the 3 on 3 will be like the legends DLC last year expect without the cell shading and legends.
