nope but the shorter one is what most people should have. i believe when stern made all the accessory rules a few years back he said 4 inches for wristbands, one on each arm only, elbow or below and anything else worn by players must be for medical purpose with proof from a team doctor, besides headbands. dont know how strictly the rules are enforced though or if any player wears a 6 inch band but i will be doing plenty of accessory edits when i get the game.

Wooooow Pharacyde and Dawn Penn? Man, I can't wait to hear this soundtrack...

nice vid, wish there were more options for the CAP, shoes, tats, accessories and such but the fact that they actually look human and the sliders are locked IMO is a big step in the right direction. Specially with all the other things they added to the game I can wait for more to be added to the CAP just as long as it will get touched sometime in the near future. Over all this game is looking great for me and can't wait till the 7th. Also wish they would do more with the create a team, (if they haven't) something similar to what they have in APF2k8 would be nice.

Thanks for the video Steve... good stuff

As far as NBA players... if you've ever stood next to one, they have an unusually low body fat percentage, and most of them are smaller than what you see on tv.. thinner so to speak, not all rocked up like a wrestler.

They're just cut because as I said, low body fat, the muscles are more defined, not hulky.

VERY true...
even Ben Wallace was leaner than expected when I saw him up close....dont get me wrong though- he is still a beast.

I'm surprised they don't have reebok though(Aren't Addidas and Reebok partners?I thoght one bought the other out)

yea how tight would it be if we could edit player shoes this i got my fingers crossed

The thing that I love most about this vid is that player roles are editable. FINALLY I can make Manu stay a 6th man.
