What Was Better : Draft Combine & Summer Circuit Or Rookie Showcase?

I remember when I first started playing Myplayer on NBA 2K11 and playing the draft combine and impressed with how realistic it was and the summer circuit while a bit boring really helped me work on skills Myplayer wise. But it was very boring and unrealistic at some times and especially when I would average a triple double in the draft combine and be 14th pick. But 2K12 scrapped that with the rookie showcase, while it was quicker it didn't really help noobs who were new to MyPlayer get a solid feel for the mode, but it certainly was less boring and the interviews were fun, overall I'd give it to 2K11, what do you guys think?

Having never played 2K11 but watched My Player videos of Chris Smoove( which is actually what made me finally go out and buy 2K12) I think I like the look of 2K11 better.

I liked the draft combine better; wasn't feeling the fictional rookie showcase. I would love for them to have a fully fleshed out draft combine with drills and etc. that could affect your initial ratings. A lot of things they can do with the combine to make it more interesting and rewarding.

I liked Draft Combine better. I rather have that than get drafted off of one game.

What I would like to see the option of being undrafted and trying out for a team in the Summer League.

Having played both, I would say 2k12 because of the straight to the point mentality. Also because of the interviews.

Re: What Was Better : Draft Combine & Summer Circuit Or Rookie Showcase?

Summer League only would be perfect, if I played bad one game, I'ld have another chance to get my draft stock up. Also, I used to hate in 2K11, but now I realize how much I miss it. It's almost impossible to not get drafted in the first 18 or so picks in 2K12. At 1st I liked it but now, all I get is the same teams asking me the SAME EXACT QUESTIONS. I wish 2K would remove the interviews and just have a Draft Combine, then after the draft, a summer league, of 4 or 5 games.
