I don't want to get the hopes up this high for graphics next year. There's only 1 year to go on, to verify this as a trend for them to make such a large improvement on the game in a new system. To me the bar is already very (or dare I say extremely) high, I would definitely expect lighting to become more improved not that it's even bad but they surely learned more they can do to make lighting more dynamic and reflective like it is in real life. Here the lights are kind of shining in one place, or at one angle. This is very nitpicky but you may get what I mean. Anyhow I'm sure they'll have learned more things about lighting they can implement for this title.
But for a graphics leap to be shattering what we have right now in '14, I'd have to expect retractable roof stadiums, amazing draw distances and nba 2k14 like player models all coming in the next game. That's a tall order for them to accomplish, and that should be their goal but I will avoid penciling those expectations in for me.
I think more realistically, we can expect new lively dugouts, more player emotion (facial reactions, demeanor's), improved surroudings outside stadiums, and possible wildcards for me, maybe a new dynamic weather system with an improved skyline and wind effects, or the grand-daddy of them all retractable roof stadiums.
