Well they say its one to one movement, so I guess if it works correctly, then it should happen like you see in that gif

That would be pretty sweet haha

Control stick sounds a lot like what Beluba did with NBA Live 10 when he was at EA. that was the probably the best feature in that game and if it's done right could be the best feature in 2K. Looking very good so far.

Aside from the bit of sliding still present and some stiffness in the defensive reactions, this looks lovely.

If this much attention was paid to other problem areas, I'll be in video basketball game heaven.

Most layup animations are WAY to damn slow. It's probably cuz the mo-cap athlete is jogging when he does the layups and not behaving as he would if he were trying to beat another player to the basket.

And the high level layups, ironically, get blocked more than the lower, simpler ones. Like a layup I often get where for no reason at all the player does all these movements with the ball that just gets blocked.

The best one is when you have a wide open layup and you do an unnecessary double clutch so you can either get blocked or miss the layup because someone was standing near you when you released the shot.

Or when the game makes you switch hands at the last second so you can throw the ball into the defender's chest/head while falling on your face.

There needs to be some kind of distinction between the defense actually contesting a shot and just being in the area. Too many times the game makes you do these weird and unnecessary layups to try and represent the defense being tough at the rim.
