Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

head near the rim or not

he has no creativity

dunking is not just about bounce

Kobe can STILL full extension windmill

do you know how hard that is bro?

By looking at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCPol37w1Ro

You can't tell me that he isn't one of the best dunkers that stepped foot onto a court.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

Jesus christ, it's my opinion, i should be able to express it freely, Lebron is one of the best dunkers the NBA has ever seen

And no, Kobe is only a 1x slam dunk champion, year 1997

I'm a huge Laker fan, i shouldn't have to educate myself, kobe wasn't a top dunker.

LeBron one of the best dunkers the NBA has ever seen? You started to watch it like 4 years ago then? He's your typical power dunker, and he got a lot of power.
And Kobe wasn't a top dunker? LMAO, are you kidding me? He had high hops and lots of creativity, he could get up there and dunk in somebody's face too.
Just to get it clear, I'm not comparing players nor starting another vs. thread, I root for OKC, I don't even care about all that.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

Hes no VC
hes no T Mac
He's no Jason Richardson
Hes no Desmond Mason

I could go on forever


in a nutshell yes, I can tell u he is not one of the best dunkers bro

he does nothing crazy, he just gets real high

he's Wiz Khalifa of dunking

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

Like i said, i'm a huge Laker fan, Kobe is a good dunker, he isn't up there with Shawn Kept, Vince Carter, Lebron James, Michael Jordan.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

On topic:

Not much here, I'll might try this mode though.
LeBron a 98? He's the best in the game right now but damn, he must've improved a lot, his postgame, his off-ball movement, developed a consistant jumper and he's now clutch lol. No, but on the real, if a player plays just like in real life, puts the numbers that he does in reality, I don't care about the ratings that much.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

Kobe now prolly has more creativity...

Ive never even seen Lebron move much in the air...

Shawn Kemp was iight... but again another power dunker...

If you think what Lebron does is good you would have went crazy for a dude like Darvin Ham who was an absolute BUM with bounce...

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

I probably will be using Derrick Rose, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant and Eric Gordan( he is so underrated)in this mode. Four young players that can still get better, I don't want to play as someone who basically at their peak.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

I think I'll give regular My Player a try first, but when I try this mode out, I'll probably either play as Brandon Roy, Tracy McGrady, Andrew Bogut (I'm a Bucks fan), or perhaps even someone like Chris Bosh where I'll ask to be traded so that I can be at least the #2 guy for a title contender instead of getting hung out to dry all the time. My respect for him went way up in the Finals after listening to all his post-game interviews and stuff. He seemed to take the Finals much more to heart than LeBron and even Wade in my opinion.

This. I'm thinking about playing with a nice young SG. Maybe Nick Young? I want someone athletic and has size, maybe 6'7, can abuse in the post.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

I'd go Yao Ming (assuming they go with last year's rosters) with injuries turned off.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #6- Creating a Legend

Funny how this dunking talk started because someone mentioned a rating.



Edit: @OG - Nuh uh. I called dibs on Nick Young first

Wait, they're going to go with last years rosters?
