Perhaps if we discuss this for another 40 pages they'll rescan his teeth and nose hair?
Omg 2k can't get criticized so I'm gonna go cry about it. Get out of here dude.

Re: NBA 2K16 Video - Steph Curry with His Mouth Guard

I never even thought introducing movable mouthguards like that would ever be possible, so that's pretty freaking awesome. And I didn't even notice the quote on the shoe until you guys pointed it out, not to mention the detail on his ankle braces. Small-big details like those are some of my favorite things in the world.

Sidenote, respect to NBA 2K's marketing team so far for not being the obnoxious hype men we'd seen in years past. I'm not sure if this stuff qualifies as "undersell, over-deliver" but I definitely enjoy the idea of marketing folks not trying to pull one over on me, opting instead to primarily just let the game do the talking.

He looks very much like Klay at different angles.

Yeah, I agree, but I think you jinxed it. There's time left on the clock.

Something is a little bit off about the likeness in the eyes, possibly because his eyelid folds often look "sleepier" or thicker in real life.

But that little side sneer-- that's so spot on. And one of the things I've wanted was for 2K to animate the wrist bounce in shot animations. SO NICE that they got it in his free throw routine.

Yes, this is me going into weirdly specific detail. I only watched him for several hundred hours this year.
I agree with his eyes being off, and that's a big part of his appearance. I know he was scanned, so he probably had his eyes wide open the entire time, but that throws it off to me.

But the clip looks awesome otherwise. The mouth guard is awesome, the ankle brace is great, the detail on the shoe is slick. I get more amped every day for basketball videogame season to be upon us.

Now, show me Wiggins. I can't run an association with Towns and Wiggins unless he's got a better scan.

Good stuff.

Can't wait to see all of the other little details they put in.
