    First time poster, sup y'all, I figured this was as good a place as any to post this. I'm not sure if this has ever been talked about, and I'm sure some people would probably be opposed to this, but what if 2k auditioned their very own broadcast crew? I'm not a big fan of the guys they've got in the booth these days(mainly Kellogg and now Greg Anthony) anyway. With their own team, they probably wouldn't have to pay as much, and the commentary could end up being much more dynamic because they'll be able to work more with the team(maybe we could even submit first and last names to the team, so people with uncommon names don't have to be called by their myPlayer's nickname). It would also be beneficial for the commentary team to get their foot in the door for possible network gigs thanks to 2k's large audience. I'd prefer TNT licensing, but this, in my opinion would be the next best thing. What do you think?

          This animation bugs me...this is where the defender automatically jumps up and there's nothing you can do. I really hope this doesn't happen too often.

              Terrible choice imo. Hubie Brown would have been perfect. Or even Jeff Van Gundy. Those guys are analysts and perfect replacing for Steve Kerr.

              But.....
              I never like Steve Kerr anyway. So any one replacing him will be all good. Yes, even Anthony > Kerr in my book lol...just saying.

                Hubie Brown....really? Old man can't even pronounce names right and sounds extremely crotchety.

                Jeff Van Gundy, on the other hand, is in NBA Live already isn't he? Or was he? Either way he would have been a good choice too.

                  Van Gundy works for ESPN. Im not even sure why his name is even being brought up?

                      That's not being fair because she's not a contracted commentator she's a sideline reporter

                        I'm with you there. I was really hoping on him. Oh well, Greg is solid as well but these guys are only as good as how much time/effort they are willing to put into the booth to record. Hopefully Greg is up to the challenge.
                        EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

                          2k sports always does great with commentary regardless of who it is. I have also found commentary to be one of their biggest strengths. Whatever 2k does with their proprietary commentary technology is on another level. I always feel at home listening to a 2k video game broadcast even with their MLB2k baseball series.

                          At this point in the game, staying with traditional TV personalities is the way to go. Fans expects this. It simply breathes more authenticity into the broadcast. I definitely hear what you're saying though. Plus, it be a lot easier to update commentary lines throughout the year when the voice actors are there in their backyard. Had 2k started with voice actors (a la NFL2k) then maybe, just maybe backyard personalities would work.

                            It also could be be the conservative jump. Remember, you can manually jump vertically or aggressively try to block this year.
