Love how you can lose the ball overdribbling.

Nice work DaWolf!

With the contact animations did you see any instances where a defender fell onto a shooter after biting for a pump fake?

Is the fatigue system better? in 2k12 u can play an entire quarter witout having to sub in your players. They need it like 2k10 where it forced us to sub our players in..

1. I didnt see one putback in all of my games
2. Its back with d pad up I think. Plus you can see which signature card the player has. I think its always the player in possession that is shown
3. cant tell from a 5 mnute one quarter demo

Yes actually that was pretty great. Lebron pump faked and I got up for the block and while I was in the air I was like "noo he got me". than he got up again and i fell slightly onto him for the foul call

Rebounding did you notice the physics in that area? I read that players collide during a rebounding battle...

DaWolf, you sir are a legend around here during this time. Thank you.

Hopefully the demo he played was just an early version. I remember last year on the preview the guy said 2k12 felt very similar to 2k11.

Ball feels a bit more loose this year.

This doesnt sound good so does that mean centers and PF will be able to strip Guards again this year?

When you shoot a contested jump shot, your player will kick out his leg

I am not feeling this. The contested shot animation from 2k11 is back. I didnt like it because it was waaaaayyy too effective when you got the release right.

Hard to say. Didnt see anything like that.
