This is absolutely true, plus, why in the world can't you shuffle through players positions during the draft in 08? You can do it to scout, but then in the draft it's nearly impossible to find those you've scouted.

Wow totally agree, I would think they could at least have Stephen A. Smith in 2K9 ready to interview my 1st round pick.

Gameplay in NBA LIVE is very bad so it´s not just the draft that could help that series.But in madden improving the draft would be awesome because the gameplay is OK(almost good).

That would make things easy for 2K, since SAS asked the exact same question to every player he interviewed during the draft this year: "What do you think you bring to the [insert team name here]?"

And then Stephen A. could offer the player some Cheez Doodlez. Stephen A. loves cheez doodlez.

So I guess no NBA game next year will have the import draft class feature since college hoops is gone...that's dissapointing, I like to bring in draft classes.

Unless they use CH2K8 to import, but I didn't particularly like it because the rookies were never any good, their ratings were so far off, they didn't import well at all.
