I appreciate how much players are more susceptible to biting on the pump fake.

Good to see Derek Fisher on the sparks bench.
WNBA mode is just great altogether.

Edit: I noticed all the WNBA games are played on one court. Only thing I don't like

Completely agree. I will probably do a season with them and a myleague once we get to next gen. I just wish if they are going to use the bubble court they should remove the fans.

Ive been playing some WNBA games and I really enjoy the speed of their game. Do they play at the same location even in myleague?

Love the WNBA too, but the announcers are just annoying. 2k missed the perfect opportunity to bring Doris Burke over. Maybe there's hope for the next gen consoles. Maybe they'll add WNBA to MyLeague too.

WNBA announcers sound so boring and dull. It was like that last year too.

I totally forgot about "defensive signature motion styles" from the blog.

Noticed Iggys defensive stance where he has his arms straight back during an online game.

Was playing MyCareer and randomly Kenny Smith was on commentary as the special guest. That's a new one.

Maybe I’m crazy, but it seems they’ve slimmed all the NBA player models down which has in turn made the court feel bigger. I could be tripping but I feel like I can maneuver through a little bit easier than 2K20.

Had Shaq there as well in a MyLeague game.

Same to me. I think spacing is a tiny bit better as well I think.

They tightened the jerseys. Aside from a few players they also resized some of the bigs heads. If the head is smaller then the player will look taller and slimmer.

George Karl on the sidelines coaching the 2007-8 Denver Nuggets.

Also saw Kawhi Leonard assume his signature defensive stance.

I love the depth of animations 2K adds each year. I do not recall seeing the shoot-from-the-hip layup much if at all in 2K20.

I passed ahead to Mo Bamba in transition. He was already ahead of his man as he passed the three-point line. The lane was opening up; apparently the defense was anticipating a short jumper. The dribble animation had that awkwardness of a player with an opportunity for a closer shot but unsure of how to close the deal. He took a couple more awkward, unsure dribbles, and sure enough, someone closed on him to contest. Instead of the confident "I have done this before" layup animation that at least looks like it has a high chance of going in, he got the hipshot that just looked low percentage. He missed. Johnathan Isaac and a couple of others can hit that shot somewhat consistently.

One of my favorite things about MyLeague: Learning the team.
